  We were very happy with our experience with Elkhorn Electric. Jon and his wife were incredibly helpful and responsive - we had a big project to do and they spent time going through multiple options with us. They provided a clear estimate and worked to get our supply order in before prices went up (due to external demand). Heather, Jon's business partner, was the most responsive contractor I've worked with on many projects. The price was slightly higher than our estimate, but this is normal and expected when small things come up that are impossible to know ahead.

  Great company to work with. Called Elkhorn Electric after being jacked around by another local electrician. Jon and Heather scheduled us right away and the work was done professionally and fast. I will recommend Elkhorn Electric for any of your needs. Thanks

  I contacted Elkhorn Elec. to get a bid to get electricity for a new hot tub to be delivered. There were no local electricians. His company was only 20 miles from our location. John, the owner, come out and said the job would take him 2 or 3 hours and he charges $115 an hour. The day before the arrival of the hot tub, I called his wife and business partner to arrange the meeting times with John. She informed me that he was doing another “ big job”. She would be sending out another journeyman and an apprentice. Now the hourly would be $200 per. When I balked, she explained that even if John were doing the job, he would have a second person. The job was completed. The old bait and switch. Shortly there after an electrical inspector came out to ok the project. I was informed that I needed a GFI. Called Elkhorn, Heather, wife, would send out the journeyman for installation. Job was completed and later approved. Michael, the installer, was here no more than 3 hours. I got my bill and was charged 4.25 hrs. When I called about the discrepancy, Heather said the clock starts ticking when they are loading the truck and ends when they get back. So, for less than a 1 hr. round trip drive, I am paying nearly $150. A little exorbitant! That being said, the work was more than satisfactory. Heather seems to be very nice. I would hope that the company is neither dishonest or deceitful and they just forgot to tell us all the little details that a lay person might not be aware of. What was at one point, in my mind, a $700 to $800 deal, cost me over $2100. Buyer beware.
