Best Panel Upgrade in Denver CO

We had a very poor overall experience with Mighty Bee and I would not be able to recommend them based on this experience. I want to be fair to Mighty Bee that most of our issues came with what ended up being horrible customer service and follow up and not all work related. I was treated with defensiveness and outright contempt by Martin across multiple emails and phone calls after the service. I'm not overly sensitive, but I can't think of another experience where I was treated as the enemy simply by questioning the finished product which I was not happy with and had multiple code violations. We purchased an electrical panel upgrade for an older home we bought in Arvada that had a 1960s junction box. Things were fine in terms of initial quote and appointment set up. I got back from travel and the panel was upgraded and as he left the house he mentioned to me in passing he could upgrade my kitchen to GFI (which will be required for a house this old). But that was the last I heard from Might Bee. They admitted later that they flat out forgot to follow up not only with me to confirm everything went well but with the city for the required inspection. But that was only because I followed up a few weeks later after my GC informed me that most of what Mighty Bee completed would have to be redone and also that much of it was not to current code. I raised this with Mighty Bee and this is when things went south.

Again to be fair to Might Bee, a panel upgrade seems to be quite an arbitrary service based on what electrician you work with. I would highly recommend you do thorough research on not only what your home will need in total but what exactly is covered in the cost of a panel upgrade. Costs clearly vary based on inclusions. From my side of things and also 2 separate electricians (one who is simply my next door neighbor and had no financial skin in the game), Mighty Bee did the absolute minimum required in a box upgrade. The result was circuits were shared where they would normally (and now have been by another electrician) split so that half of the house didn't run on a double barred circuit. Things like running dryer lines separately are also required by current code, and by simply asking a few probing questions to the customer the electrician would should able to make recommendations about required upgrades, but genuinely upsell their own service. I got none of this from Might Bee. But when I questioned the work completed and cited advice from these other electricians, Martin at Mighty Bee reacted with anger and defensiveness, accusing the electricians of sabotaging his work, and calling them idiots and other accusations about trying to bad mouth him. Once again, one of the electricians was just a neighbor checking out our remodel. I didn't even ask him specifically, he took a look at the new box and brought up 5+ code violations and questions as to why Mighty Bee would have chosen to leave a new panel in that state given we were doing a full remodel and almost certainly would have a lot more electrical changes needed. As it turned out we did have to completely update the homes electrical set up. This meant that the work Mighty Bee completed has now been completely updated and we wasted $3,300 on the panel upgrade and had to deal with a complete jerk in Martin from Might Bee. To add insult to injury we told Mighty Bee we didn't want to have have them come back and requested a refund for the $370 to source a license (free and done online) and inspection, which he did over 3 weeks after the service, and only after I notified them. I requested a refund for that portion of the bill, to which he flatly refused with yet another contentious and rude email.

Once again, I want to say that inherently Mighty Bee's panel upgrade wasn't wrong. But again it was clearly the MINIMUM needed. Combine that with the responses we dealt with from Martin make it impossible for us to recommend Mighty bee.

We use S Star Electric on a regular basis for a plethora of electrical issues at different properties. We love them. 100% positive experience every time.

If you need an electrician you should just hire AMP Electric. After talking to about ten companies which took several months and not being pleased with anyone, i I am so glad I found Lee to install recess lighting in our house. From start to finish Lee and his master electrician James did an amazing job. They were professional, courteous and so accommodating. Their pricing was extremely reasonable and they did not charge a fee for coming out to give an estimate. I will be using only this company for any of my future electrical requirements.

Matt was awesome in his assessment and answering questions. Fixed my panel issue, quick and professionally.

I reached out to Andre via a recommendation. Andre was professional, communicative and quick!

I hired him to put a 240v in my garage for an electric vehicle. He came out for a quick quote, and got me on the schedule a few days later. He was fairly priced and I wouod definitely recommend him to my friends

I called other places but when they came out gave me bid I felt comfortable with customer service and knowledge of my issue so I went with this company of course I was satisfied with time of completions and the work done. I highly recommend.

Seth is extremely professional, shows up on time, responds to texts and charges a reasonable rate for his work. He takes his time to explain the issue and what he needs to do to fix the problem. Highly recommend Seth.

They were transparent, knowledgeable, and punctual! We had a great experience and would definitely recommend them.

Kenneth Foust, owner of Electrical Solutions is a liar and a coward in the way he conducts business.
I would encourage anyone needing the help of an electrician, or an honest person to look elsewhere.
I'd be happy to verify....

In our every interaction, the team at Carlton has always been honest and forthright. By all indications this is an excellent Colorado business that works hard to do things right.

I have used Electri-Serve for all my electrical repair, installation & service needs for about 20 years. I have found them fair, dependable and professional in all my dealings with them. I can recommend them to do a stellar job with anything electrical. I will continue using them for all my electrical needs. Everything is done to code and in a professional manner. You will be very satisfied with their service and reputation.

Matt Heenan and his team are so great. We've had them do a variety of work over the years and they are consistently friendly, super responsive and do great work.. I appreciate that he is a down to earth person who I know is treating me ethically, and can take care of any electrical issues I have. This quality of contractor in any field is one to hold at the top of the list.

The experience with Williams and Sons Electric and the proposed lighting project was painless. Tim was easy to work with and allowed things to play out without pushing to make things happen. Quickly assessing the lighting issue, sketching a rough drawing of the proposed fixture layout, established project timeline and start date, in addition to the cost proposal. Tim and his son started on schedule, completed project within the established timeline with outstanding precision and level of performance. Would definitely use Williams and Sons again!

We've used Juniper Mountain Electric for several jobs around our house, from small to large. They are dependable, the prices are fair, and the work is top notch. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, and highly recommend them.

Highly recommend if you need a good honest electrician!

Friendly, prompt, fair price, great service.

I had a good experience with the electrician a buddy had recommended to me. My electrical issues were quickly resolved by him.

NEVER CALLED ME BACK!
