Our Story: Deeply Rooted in WNC
A Local, Family-Owned, Veteran-Owned Legacy since 1979
In 1979, Harold and Dianne Driggers had a vision to build a family business and a home in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina. They founded Cha Vin Electric, naming it after their two sons, Chad and Kevin to reflect their deep family commitment.
As a Navy veteran and a member of the Lumbee Tribe, Harold instilled the values of integrity, hard work, and community service that have guided the company for over four decades. His strong work ethic, combined with Dianne's support, laid the groundwork for a business that has always prioritized its customers and its community.
Little did they know that in 1999, Kevin would join his dad as an Electrical Apprentice while serving in the Army Reserve as a Diesel Mechanic. Licensed as a Master Electrician in 2008, Kevin became Vice President in 2012, following in Harold's footsteps to lead the business.
The company has become a true family affair. In 2020, Kevin's wife, Becky, came on board to provide additional support. Their son, Cory, also started his career with the business in 2020 as an Electrical Apprentice and is now a Journeyman Electrician on the path to becoming a Master Electrician. Their daughter, Nichole, has been providing support as an Administrative Assistant since 2021.
Our story is built on these roots; we are proud to continue to honor that legacy by providing trusted electrical services to our neighbors throughout WNC.
