Best Panel Upgrades 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.

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

Nothing but wonderful things to say about Carlton Electric! Needed help with an issue at our office and they were quick to respond and fix the issue immediately. Very professional and punctual. Would definitely recommend them and use them again.

They are wonderful!! They fixed everything on the list and then proceeded to check the house for anything that wasn't right electrically including putting in 11 new light bulbs and 2 wall plates for switches.
Thank you so much, Tim, Miguel and Joey. You three are the best.

I’ll start by saying I don’t really post reviews. With that being said, I am usually pretty anxious when hiring contractors as there’s always a horror story, issues with communication, disagreements on scope of a project or end cost and I had none of the above when working with Matt. After meeting with a few contractors in town, I met Matt and discussed options for completely rewiring my entire home located in highland. It was built in 1901 and the existing electrical was down right dangerous. Exposed wiring, overloaded circuits, panel internals exposed to rain etc. Matt’s professionalism and overall demeanor made me feel at ease with choosing him for the project. I wanted everything to pass inspection and voiced my concerns and goals for the outcome of the project. He quickly sent me a quote and we scheduled a time to begin work. Matt and his team worked extremely efficiently and quickly. I had a few additional punch list items that I requested after receiving the initial quote such as removing existing fans, adding exterior lights, and adding interior lighting. All of these were no issues. We discussed possibly having to add some outlets to pass inspection as the home is old, and when inspection time came, we found out that we would not need to include those outlets so Matt reduced his quoted price, all while completing the additional punch list items. Working with Matt was by far the best experience I’ve ever had working with a contractor of my sort. The entire home has been required and passed inspection, including a new 200 amp panel and I am so relieved. I told him I’d be happy to be a reference so if you need to verify his work, speak with him and I’d be happy to vouch for him. 5 stars.

Had Tim, David, and Rick over to complete a few electrical jobs. The team was punctual, courteous, and efficient---exemplary professionalism overall. They ensured complete satisfaction throughout each job, and offered fair and honest pricing. I will look to Williams & Sons Electric for my family's future electrical needs, and encourage others to do the same.

Bonnie was on top of everything from our first phone call to our last! She was updating us throughout the entire job and making sure everything was taken care of in a timely matter. Great customer service and a job well done! We will be referring them to our clients from here on out!

Look no further if you need any electrical work done. Extremely reasonable prices, great staff, and they do not try to nickle and dime you for everything like other electrical companies do. Jeremy also took the time to walk through everything that he was doing before starting. He also provided his cell phone number in case we have any questions pertaining to electrical anything. As mentioned in other reviews - there's a reason these guys have such a high rating. Do yourself a favor and give them a call. You won't regret it!

My experience with R&A was excellent. Shawn, the technician showed up on time, and was very courteous and professional. He and two other men installed a service meter and panel. Rick came by later to inspect the job. The city inspector also commented on how well the job was done. Thanks guys!

Phenomenal electrician. Their pricing is competitive and their work is excellent. I had them replace an entire new electrical box in an old house in Denver.
