Recent Electrician Reviews in Houlton
- Randy's ElectricI sent them an email at 9:57pm asking to schedule an appointment and some additional questions. He promptly replied 10:05pm explaining that he didn't have a licence in Wisconsin. I was very impressed with his promptness.
- The Construction Group IncScott worked hard with the insurance company to make sure all damage was covered. He and his team showed up on time every time and the work was done professionally and on a timely basis.
- Creekside Electric LLCAndy and his crew are the best of the best when it comes to electricians. They have done numerous jobs for us, including the installation of our entryway light, which hangs from a 20ft vault. They are punctual, professional and personable. I would highly recommend Andy and crew. We will, without a doubt, call Creekside again when needed
- Creekside Electric LLCI've had Andy and his team do several projects at my house, from kitchen remodel to troubleshooting. It's always a positive experience and I've never been left disappointed with the end result. Easy to communicate with and Andy is prompt to respond. Highly recommend
- Digital HD Antennas & Satellite Dish InstallerIt went very well. Mike showed up about 30 minutes early! I live in River Falls, WI so first I called him several times and texted him to see if he would be willing to come out. He said yes and came out. Set it up and everything turned out great Thanks again, Mike!
- Kludtke Electric, LLCJerry was amazing and truly went above and beyond to help us get our new baseboard heaters and thermostats wired correctly. We are remodeling a condo to turn it into an investment property. To keep costs down we decided to try to wire the baseboard heaters and thermostats ourselves. Jerry gave us some tips over the phone on how to do the wiring at no cost. We called him two more times to ask questions and he was always willing to talk with us. Finally, we needed his help as we couldn't get all of the heaters and thermostats to turn on. We contacted Jerry this past weekend for additional questions. He took the time while he was deer hunting to answer our questions and set-up a time to meet today. He came over and had to re-do everything we had done while explaining what he was doing and why. We learned a lot from Jerry. We would not hesitate to hire him again or recommend him. Thank you Jerry
- Brightside Electric LLCJob was done timely and on our time schedule. Cleaned up after themselves daily. Made suggestions that was affordable and looks great.
- Creekside Electric LLCAndy and his crew were exceptional. Always very responsive and helpful, I felt like he went above and beyond in all aspects of the job. Highly recommend.
- Creekside Electric LLCAndy came by and installed the garage light right away and checked out where we wanted the fan installed. He said he would schedule the fan installation when we had selected the fan we wanted. He was prompt and responsive, did an excellent job, and the charge for his services was very reasonable. I won't hesitate to call him if and when we need other electrical assistance
- Creekside Electric LLCHe did a great job! Very professional and answered all of my questions. I even tacked on a few extra jobs at the end that I had forgotten about and he took care of all of them for me right there and then. When the light fixture bulbs blew out later in the day he answered my call right away even though it was a Saturday and he was sick. Replaced the bulbs as he suggested and all is working fine. He was very friendly and told me to call him if we had any other problems and he would come out and fix it. So nice to find someone in the field I felt like I could trust! If you want great service you can trust at a great price and someone who is knowlegable give him a call! Definitely will use him again

"It went very well. Ed was very prompt and responded to my call within an hour. His work was excellent. He informed me that for safety's sake I should have a GFI in the kitchen area (actually he checked the circuit and determined that I needed two to comply with code). He replaced the switches and outlets that I needed, installed everything (with many trips up and downstairs to the electrical box to determine what was on which circuit). He was very professional and friendly and good-natured while he worked. I will definitely hire him again.

"We had All Energy Solar install solar panels on our home in Harris MN, May 2020. I cannot say enough good things about the company. They were courteous, fair and considerate. When the project installation, scheduled for later in 2019 did not get installed in 2019, due to weather and scheduling, this delay caused us to miss the deadline to qualify for the 30% federal tax credit. All Energy Solar called in early January and volunteered to make up the difference and reschedule for a spring 2020 installation. I did not have to ask and I think a company that volunteers to make it right for its customer is a special company. Our solar installation has been operating flawlessly for the past three weeks and we are thrilled.

"My solar system (photovoltaic panels or "PV" system as I guess the pros call it) from Arch Electric has been up and running for five months now. I could not recommend Arch Electric more highly. First of all, they are local and have been in Wisconsin a long time. They are a family business. That means something to me. I researched it a bit before I made the first phone call. From what I could ascertain, Arch installs only the best PV panels available. I know there are cheaper solar panels out there but they aren't rated that highly. This was a big expense upfront and a long-time commitment for me. I wanted high-quality solar panels that I wouldn't have to worry about five or ten years from now. That is what Arch Electric sells and installs. The entire process was excellent. The estimator came out and spent time with me. I wasn't sure at that point that I was going to go ahead with it. She talked with me about how the system works, the installation process, the tax credits (important to me!), financing and the estimated time it would take for the system to pay for itself (not as long as you'd think). She sent a quote promptly after I gave her my electric bills so she could estimate the best system for me and my family. We continued to discuss my goals, costs, concerns and so forth. We emailed back and forth when I had questions. She was very, very responsive. I will tell you that my system is thought to pay itself off in 9-to-11 years and after that it's wholly free energy. That is darned attractive. The other BIG selling point to me was that if something goes wrong, Arch Electric's 25-year warranty is for parts AND labor. Twenty-five years!! Obviously, Arch stands behind what they sell. It's impressive and won me over. I want a system that is worry-free. After the contract was signed, they sent an engineer to figure out if my roof would support the weight and other engineering measurements to ensure a good plan. (My roof was fine.) The engineer was pleasant and efficient. And clean. On the day of installation, they sent three installers. Those guys were great!! They were on-time (a little early, actually), respectful, efficient, CLEAN and when there were decisions to be made I was consulted. Such a good process! I can't believe that installation went so quickly. It took only two days. In fact, one of the installers had to wait until 8PM on the last day for a WeEnergies inspector to give his blessing on the system before the switchover. This installer was so good about waiting. He had nothing to do for hours other than wait. I felt terrible for him and his family. He never complained. Such a nice guy! During the installation, Arch sent a supervisor to make sure I was happy. He also brought me very generous jug of the homemade maple syrup that the Arch Electric family makes every spring. It is a lovely gift that they don't "have" to give. I really appreciate the family thoughtfulness and generosity. (Do you have any idea how much effort it takes to make "real" maple syrup and not that garbage they sell at the supermarket? OMG!) Anyway, five months later, I LOVE LOVE LOVE my solar system. I have an app on my mobile phone where I can see the status of each panel (like I know what any of those data mean - LOL!), review my system's output and see my savings up to the minute -- money that I am not paying to WeEnergies anymore. It's heaven. If you are thinking about getting a solar system, I think you should start a conversation with Arch Electric. It's an upstanding, quality company. It is not possible to recommend anyone higher. Good luck and go solar!!

"Overall, I really enjoyed working with Great Lakes. I had the same two guys come out and install my bathroom (Hassan and Mike). The remodel took 3 days. They were professional and courteous; on time and cleaned up the area every night. Hassan kept me in the loop for changes and asked for my opinions when it came to placing certain pieces in the shower. My only complaint would be in communication between Great Lakes home office. After my consultation, I was told I would receive samples of the vanity color and countertop (for painting) which didn't happen & the person I was to contact had left the company so my emails were not getting through and I had to contact the office and explain my issue. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this company to my family and friends.

"What should have taken less than a day stretched into two weeks. There were mismeasurements, mis-cuts and miscommunication. Although, when it was all said and done, the countertops look fabulous. The installer was careful to make sure patterns lined up, seams were all but invisible, and on-site cuts were accurate. If you can look past the chaos of the process and focus on the long term results you'll probably be happy using this company.
