Bakenhus Electric

Very honest and knowledgeable local electrician. Robert came out and provided me with a quote on a big repair (metering can and riser replacement), and he came in well below the ‘big brand’ companies who brought their iPads and gave me ‘discounts’ on their final price ($$$$) which was much higher than Bakenhus’ estimate. Robert’s team came out the next day to complete the work, and the quality was excellent. Everything passed inspection with no issues. See photos for repair work. Will definitely be a repeat customer!

VERY helpful and reasonable price for professional assistance on a time based fee structure. Able to get multiple smaller projects done on the same visit. Thank you

Bakenhus was easy to schedule and great service overall. They communicated well which made it easy for me to change my appointment time and they provided a heads up when they were on their way.Jacob and Tyler were both were very professional. They answered all my questions and worked quickly and neatly. Pricing was fair with labor and materials. There is a 1.5 hour minimum but there wasn't a trip charge and was able to use up most of that time.Would highly recommend and would use their services again.

I’d pay very close attention when using this company.On one hand with work that they do they’re very good, which with electrical work, is very important. But they’re also very expensive, much more so than the average.But with electrical work they’re not interested in, be very careful.With one particular minor project I had (that was part of a few larger ones), I had requested a quote in writing (email) on two separate occasions. On both occasions I got responses to the rest of my query but was (blatantly) ignored with this other issue.So I waited until they came to my home to do some other work and was given a verbal quote. The project was to properly map out on my circuit-box, which circuits controlled which outlets, and hardware (washer/dryer, stove, fridge, etc); a two person project but no real electrical skill. When I got the invoice via email a day or two later I was charged more than quoted, even though I did most of work (I ran around the house, the other person stood at the breaker box). I had enough of being treated so poorly and too many other things going on so I just paid the bill.Additionally, prior to the above, there were two scheduled appointments at 8 a.m., both no shows, with no call in advance saying they were running late or had scheduling conflicts, as if my day did not matter, did not cost me in time, effort, etc. We all have issues/conflicts, that’s not the point, the point should be how they’re managed. This company is awful, it’s their way or the highway, when it comes to managing disruptions.While I hate the thought of suing, unfortunately it’s the only way to remedy situations like this, I should have sued for the cost of their cancellations and their over charge. They get sued a few times and when they’re running late or have to cancel, they’ll learn to call well in advance, as soon as they know (like any one common courtesy would) or bait & switch on price, my guess is their behavior would change.So on one hand I’d recommend this company because the work is very good but ONLY when it 100% suits them, but on the other hand, I’d be very very careful as this company has questionable ways of treating customers

We have used Bakenhus for a couple projects at our house now. Both times they have done great work and the employees that came out to do the work were on time and professional. I've found the price to be very fair and the owner is very friendly when talking with him about the projects.

Very friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely use them again!

I called and spoke with Robert Bakenhus about pulling power to a covered patio addition on the back of my house. Robert came out to my place to take a look at the project and provide me a quote. He listened to what I wanted to accomplish and was able to provide great suggestions as to how he could get it done. After this meeting I felt very confident that his company would get the job done exactly how I wanted. He provided me a quote the next day and the pricing was very reasonable. I hired them for the job and scheduled the appointment. The day of the appointment, the two electricians (Geoff and Terrell) showed up on time and ready to work. I walked them through what Robert and I had talked about and they were already aware of exactly what needed to be done (this was very reassuring). The guys finished the job very efficiently and the finished product was very professional and clean. I had them wire in 4 can lights, one ceiling fan, and a box for a flood light over a grill area with its own outdoor switch. Overall I was extremely satisfied with the entire process with Bakenhus Electric. Would absolutely hire them again.

We were referred to Robert Bakenhus Electric by someone we trust and the experience has been satisfying and rewarding. Robert has been responsive, professional, and easy to work with for all of our electric projects. He and his team have been very busy during the last few months but he has found the time to visit with us to better understand our needs and to make qualified suggestions backed up by his many years of experience. He easily explained those suggestions with examples of better methods that would help us manage our budget and still accomplish our goals. Members of his team are clean cut, courteous, and professional electricians that arrive on time, communicate, and exhibit the same ethics, behavior, and attitude of their boss. They not only complete their tasks on time but they also ensure the site is clean when they are finished. They are an asset to Bakenhus Electric.We intend to use Robert and his team for all of our future electric projects and would recommend them without any reservations.

We used Bakenhus for major home renovation. I was impressed with the work the did and any issues we did have were quickly addressed by Robert. I would highly recommend.

Robert showed up a few hours after I called him, found a tripped breaker I hadn't seen (it didn't look tripped) and didn't charge me anything, even his trip charge. He will have my business as long as I'm here.

Relocated power line from overhead to underground. Very reasonable and responsive. The crew was very professional and on time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Professional and friendly and fair prices. This is the 2nd time using them and they were great!! Trouble shot the problem and fixed it FAST!!

Have used him extensively to get my new 1954 house ready for move in and he is so easy to work with, very dependable and does it right.

Great company. Used several times and never let me down.

Very professional and courteous. Very reasonable pricing.

Professional people that does good work.
