ERMCO was founded in 1962 by Edward M. Gossett as a small service company called Electrical Repair and Maintenance Company. The company experienced rapid growth throughout the 60's. In 1970 , ERMCO merged with Maddox becoming business partners, a partnership that lasted until Ed's death in 1996. Jim Maddox retired as President in 1998, when Darrell Gossett became President of the company. The company continues to be owened by the Gossett Family, many members of which are involved in the daily operation of the company.

From their beginnings as a small electrical maintenance company with a staff of three, ERMCO soon became known for quality, workmanship, and expertise.
