We used Badger Electric for a 1931 home remodel where the electric work done by the previous owner was subpar. They fixed all the plugs that needed it and wired an entire new kitchen along with putting ceiling lights in the basement and adding plugs to places that needed them. Most the work was done by Andrew who is an amazing electrician who figured out how to work through any challenges and he also was knowledgeable about how to create the best lighting in the new kitchen. I highly recommend Badger for any electrical work needed!!
I got a guaranteed quote and then when paperwork came, it was a total different 50% higher quote, beware of this company. When I confronted the manager that did so, I got called a liar and and wire prices change everyday. This is dishonest and bad business. And one of my plug-ins from the last job they did didn't work and then I was told someone would call to schedule me and they never did. So I asked manager to fix it and said that I waited too long and I'm SOL. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Shannon at Badger Electric was so helpful today. She not only helped try to diagnose and fix the problem over the phone at no charge, she referred me to another electrician because they were booked too far out.
Despite not hiring out Badger, I will absolutely be calling them again in the future.

Great job. Those Badgers were on time, professional, friendly, informative, and a pleasure to work with. A++. Highly recommended.

Unfortunately I cannot give zero stars. Like many people I’ve seen online (Yelp, etc) reviewing Badger Electric, I’ve never left a negative review before. They are truly inspiring.
They are currently doing work on the basement of my 1940s apartment building, directly below my apartment, and the noise is horrendous, starts at 7:30am, and they are unwilling to start later. This work is apparently being spearheaded by the electric company, so my building manager hasn't had much of the information about what's going to happen and when. So, I was painfully awakened by continuous and loud banging, scraping, and other noises around 8am on Monday, that I did not have a heads up for - incredibly not trauma informed.
I believe in approaching things directly, with curiosity & compassion. When I have approached the Badger Electric people (twice) to get information about when they will be making noise, the person called "Brian" has been rude and dismissive, and mansplained at length about all of the wires they are running, instead of answering my questions directly. I understand that noises are required for their work, and am not asking them to not do it, but simply was seeking information about when so I could have a trauma informed experience of this very disruptive period of what sounds like it will be three weeks. However, They are inconsiderate, seem to have no understanding or respect for the fact that they are daily entering other peoples' homes and making a lot of noise at a time when many people are sleeping. I really hope that Brian and the decisions they have made about when they "have to" start working every day, and how to so rudely respond to the logical questions of the people they are impacting with their work, are not representative of other experiences of working with this contractor, but based on this experience, if you want to not be treated terribly, do not hire this company.
Kindness would be a great tool to add to your toolkit if this is the line of work you choose.

I am more than happy with Badger Electric. Very professional, easy to work with, honest, pet loving (!) and courteous. The crew of Brian, Peter and Chad worked 2 days on a job for my home and garage. Can't say enough about their fantastic work . The bid was reasonable and fair. They are honest and hard working and very personable. Mary in the office was very nice too. I will recommend Badger Electric and this crew to everyone. If I could give more than five stars I would! Thank you!

Badge Electric is probably one of the best contractor experiences I have ever had. My power went out in part of my house. After calling a couple of other contractors who told me they were 4 weeks out, I called Badger and they put a priority on getting someone out the same day to fix it. Gus, the electrician, took a look at my system and provided recommendations on updates but found that it was my service provider (PGE) that had the issue. Instead of just saying "not my problem" and leaving, Gus contacted PGE for me and even followed with a phone call late in the evening to make sure our power was restored.

We have had 2 major electrical projects for our home. Mike and the crew were professional, punctual and offered additional advice that helped work through issues as they arose. The office staff is prompt to respond to questions and courteous in doing so. I would recommend using Badger and we will continue to use them in the future.

I highly recommend Badger Electric. As a general contractor I have been working with Badger Electric for a couple years now on bathroom and kitchen remodels. I have used many Elec contractors and Badger is by far my favorite. I have never received a customer complaint and have passed every inspection. More than I can say for any other sub. Always on time and never work slow to rack up hours. I have met multiple of the electricians in the company and can't complain about any of them.
