Prairie Electric

"My husband and I recently purchased a home and were informed that because we had a deep freezer we needed to reach out to Prarie about possibly installing an outlet that would hold power to keep my deep freezer running. My husband called and explained what we needed. Who ever he spoke to did inform us that it was going to be $190 for the first hour and $90 every hour plus parts. That’s it and proceeded to schedule our appointment. The electrician showed up and was very kind (which is why I gave 2 stars because my husband spoke highly of him and said he appeared to feel bad about what I am about to say) and my husband asked him something to the effect of do most deep freezers need this to which the electrician replied something along the lines of not typically for newer deep freezers. So 2.5 hours later, I get a call from my husband stating we had a bill for $798 we needed to pay. I asked how, and he broke it down as approximately $300 for labor, $200 for parts, $150 for a permit, and I believe the rest ro taxes. Firstly, I am not an electrician nor am I a construction professional, how am ai supposed to know I was going to need a permit? Additionally, before having someone pay almost 1k in fees, you should probably break down the cost analysis and ask questions to ensure they know what they are asking for. Would recommend training or something on that…because of this experience, I wouldn’t recommend you all to anyone…ever…hopefully this doesn’t happen to anyone else."

"Beautiful facility! Everyone I've interfaced with at PE are professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. The PE Panel Shop is unparalleled. Ben Gross is an absolute pleasure to work with."

"Absolute rip offs for residential services. Called them back for a repair completed 30 day prior, same issue resurfaced, wanted to charge us a $250.00 service fee. Also had a bid of $5,000.00 to install an outdoor outlet! Highly recommend going elsewhere for residential electric needs and skip these con artists."

"Highly reccomend them. The employees working here are extremely professional and I had a great experience with one of there service employees today. Very happy and look forward to using them for our electrical needs in the future. Just wanted to express how happy we are with your company and the level of customer service we received in our new traditions home. 10 stars If I could."

"As the owner of a local home inspection company I look at hundreds of homes a year and inspect the electrical system. I see the work of many different electricians and can definitely say Prairie Electric is the best in the business. I refer them to all my clients who need electrical repairs done. I own a 70s home in Vancouver and the main panel was outdated, I had Prairie upgrade my panel yesterday. The work they do is top notch, very neat and professional at a very fair price. I highly recommend Prairie for all your electrical needs!"
