About Get Lit Electrical, Plumbing & Water Heater Repair

Rooted in Chesapeake, VA — Proudly Serving Our Neighbors

Get Lit Electrical, Plumbing & Water Heater Repair started with a spark — not just in wiring, but in purpose. Our journey began in a humble garage in Portsmouth, VA, where two things mattered most: doing the job right and treating people right. From day one, we’ve believed in honest service, community connection, and craftsmanship that speaks for itself.

As a family-owned business, our roots run deep in the Hampton Roads area. What began as a neighborhood effort has grown into a full-service team of licensed electricians and plumbers serving homes and businesses across Chesapeake, Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and into Northeastern North Carolina. But no matter how far we’ve come, we’ve never strayed from the values that got us here: integrity, local pride, and a job done well.

Our Story: Built on Purpose, Driven by People

In the early days, Get Lit was just a couple of vans, a handful of skilled tradespeople, and a big idea: bring dependable electrical and plumbing services to families who deserve better. We didn’t want to be the biggest — just the most trusted.

Over the years, we’ve grown thanks to the trust of thousands of neighbors who appreciated our straightforward approach, responsive service, and dedication to doing what’s right. Today, from our Chesapeake headquarters, we dispatch expert technicians who don’t just know their craft — they know your neighborhood. From fixing faulty outlets to full-home re-pipes, we treat every job like it’s in our own home.

We didn’t build this company to chase trends. We built it to stand by our word. That’s what keeps our customers coming back — and telling their friends.

What We Believe

At Get Lit, we believe service is more than showing up and fixing something. It’s about building trust, educating our customers, and doing right by people. Here’s what guides us every day:

Respect matters. We arrive on time, treat your home with care, and communicate clearly.
Knowledge is power. We explain issues in plain language and empower you to make confident decisions.
No pressure. Ever. We offer honest recommendations without the upsell.
Community counts. We’re your neighbors. We live, work, and raise our families here too.
Details matter. Whether it’s wiring a panel or tightening a valve, we take pride in doing it right the first time.

Core Values You Can Count On

Local Expertise You Can Count On

Our team lives in the communities we serve. That means we understand the quirks of local infrastructure, the climate’s impact on your systems, and the urgency that comes when something goes wrong. You’ll never get a one-size-fits-all fix — just practical, effective solutions that make sense for your property.

Transparent, Customer-First Service

We’re not here to “sell” you something. We’re here to help you understand your electrical and plumbing systems, recognize early warning signs, and avoid costly future issues. We believe in clear communication and honest guidance. That’s how we build relationships — not just revenue.

Reliable Support When You Need It Most

When something breaks, you shouldn’t have to wait days for help. With same-day scheduling, emergency service availability, and flexible financing options, we make sure help is just a call away. And because we back our work with a warranty, you can rest easy knowing we’re in your corner even after the job is done.

A Team That Cares

Behind every service call is a team of real people who care about what they do. From our customer support staff to our licensed tradespeople, every member of Get Lit shares a commitment to excellence and empathy. We don’t just hire for skill — we hire for heart.

Our technicians receive ongoing training to stay ahead of industry standards and emerging technologies. But just as important, they’re trained to listen, explain, and respect your space. Whether it’s your first time calling us or your fifth, you can expect the same dependable experience.

We’re proud to be a local employer that fosters a culture of growth, learning, and mutual respect. When our team feels valued, they bring that same care into your home.
