About Us
We have been providing electrical and other services since 1986 when Steve Sullivan founded Carry the Light Electric. As our offerings expanded so did our name. With the addition of new team specialist, we created a separate division to focus on audio, video, lighting, automation, and shading called CTL-AVL (Carry the Light Audio Video Lighting). The response from clients, contractors, and other trade partners loved the idea of a single contactor to handle all their wiring needs. To help reduce the confusion with the different names, we now primarily operate under the name CTL Companies.
