More than just electricians.
We’re here to be a blessing.
At TechChefs, we’re not just here to wire up your store or fix what’s broken—we’re here to serve. Our promise is simple:
To be a blessing to those we serve.
That’s not just a feel-good line. It’s how we operate. Whether it’s solving a nagging issue that's been slowing your team down, staying late to make sure your store opens on time, or spending extra time to find you the most cost-efficient fix—we show up ready to help, with the heart of a servant and the mindset of a pro.
We call every team member to be a servant leader.
We believe every member of our team, from office staff to our techs, is called to be a servant leader. This heart is captured in 1 Peter 4:10, a verse that is at the core of our business and how we work.
To live this out daily, we ask our team to embody our SERVANT values daily, not just as wise words on a wall, but as habits that impact everything we do.
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” - 1 Peter 4:10
TechChef’s SERVANT values
-
We treat every customer like Meemaw — with heart, respect, and an eye for going the extra mile. That means fixing it right the first time, looking for ways to go above and beyond, and leaving folks better off than we found them. Whether it's a teammate, a vendor, or a client, we serve with generosity, excellence, and care — like family.
“If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.” – Matthew 5:41
-
We don’t settle for “just good enough.” We put extraordinary effort into ordinary tasks because excellence isn’t a one-time act — it’s a habit you build. That means we always care about getting even the smallest jobs done right, always look for better ways to do things, and always keep learning and sharpening our skills. When we build excellence as a habit, with clear eyes and full hearts — we can’t lose.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”
– Colossians 3:23 -
Don’t show up with a “monkey” (problem) and try to leave it on someone else’s back — own it and bring solutions when you escalate. Use the 1-3-1 Rule:
· 1 Problem: Define one problem, clearly and simply.
· 3 Options: Offer three solid options to fix it.
· 1 Recommendation: Pick the one you think works best.
Bringing solutions builds trust and helps you grow as a leader. Own it, solve it, and keep things moving.
“But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. For each will have to bear his own load.” – Galatians 6:4-5 NIV
-
We speak to lift folks up, never to tear them down. We call out the good and challenge with kindness. We’ve got each other’s backs—and our clients’ too—with honesty and a can-do attitude. Whether it’s fixing problems or sharing a laugh, we always choose words that build and sharpen.
“Encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing...”
– 1 Thessalonians 5:11“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” – Proverbs 27:17
-
We don’t pass the buck – we own it, especially when it’s tough. No finger-pointing, no blame games. Even if we didn’t cause the problem, we step up to help solve it. Around here, if a plane’s coming in rough, we help land it — even if it’s not technically “your job.”
“Then I said to them, ‘You see the trouble we are in: Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace.’” – Nehemiah 2:17
-
We come ready — on time, geared up, and hungry to learn. We ask questions, seek training, and pursue growth like our future depends on it — because it does. When we bring our best, we earn trust, open doors, and become the kind of people others want to follow. We don’t wait to be called a leader — we show up like one.
“One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys.” – Proverbs 18:9
-
People come first — always have, always will. We don’t trade trust for a quick buck or cut corners that cost someone else. Even when it’s inconvenient or comes at a cost, we do right by folks. Because at the end of the day, money fades — but the way we treat people sticks.
“A good name is more desirable than great riches, and to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.” – Proverbs 22:1 NIV
OUR
STORY
TechChefs got its start in a garage, with a simple goal: make life easier for restaurant owners.
Our founder, Ty Thompson, had been in their shoes. As a former Sonic franchise operator, he knew firsthand the headache of dealing with constant issues—electrical problems, drive-thru audio cutting out, cameras going offline—and trying to find vendors who were actually reliable, fairly priced, and good at what they do. It felt like a never-ending cycle of patch jobs and no-shows.
Ty decided to change that.
He built TechChefs to be the kind of company he always wished he could call: one that shows up on time, does the job right, and treats customers with honesty, fairness, and respect. Not just fixing electrical issues, but solving problems across the board—drive-thru systems, security cameras, POS repairs, and more.
And he built it with a bigger purpose in mind: to glorify God through our work. That means we don’t cut corners. We don’t oversell. We do the job with excellence—or we don’t do it at all.
Years later, we’ve grown—from one guy in a garage to a full team of skilled techs with a wide range of experience. We still serve restaurants, but we’ve expanded to work with retail businesses, property managers, concrete plants, and churches, too.
No matter how much we grow, the heart of TechChefs stays the same:
Solve problems. Solve them well. Be a blessing to those we serve.
Why it matters
Running a restaurant—or any busy operation—is hard enough without having to chase down unreliable vendors or fix the same issue twice. We know, because we’ve been there.
That’s why everything we do at TechChefs is built around one goal: make your life easier.
When you call us, you’re not getting a random tech who’s guessing their way through the job. You’re getting a team that understands your urgency, respects your time, and treats your business like it’s our own. We come in, troubleshoot fast, get it fixed right, and leave you with peace of mind.
It’s not just about electrical work—it’s about trust. And we aim to earn that trust every time we show up.
Because if we can take something off your plate, help your day run smoother, and serve with integrity, then we’re doing exactly what we were built to do:
Be a blessing to those we serve.
