These guys showed up on time and put a new lighting fixture in within a few minutes--talk about quick and efficient! Left everything clean and tidy with no clean up for me to do. Very impressed and will use them again. Will also recommend them to friends. Thanks Excel Electric!

Excel has a great service guy. Every time he comes over he is happy and so helpful. Couldn't ask for a better electrician.

Excellent service comes from the top down and as a business owner myself I appreciate great communication and follow through. The folks at Excel under promised and over delivered. They came out two days ahead of the scheduled time, located a faulty underground power cable, dug it up and fixed it in no time. Great work guys!

Nov 01, 2013 Report
As a heating contractor, I have a customer who is a victim of the 2013 flood in Boulder. She needed electrical upgrades to comply with the City of Boulder codes. I referred her to Excel Electric, a firm that I have recommended to my customers for 18 years. Over a period of 10 days, my customer called Excel Electric three times to schedule service. Each time she was told that they would call her back.

No calls were returned. I stopped by the Excel office in Niwot to find out why the calls to a flood victim were not being returned. I spoke with Corey Heil, the President of the firm. He said they were "slammed" and that they were only servicing existing customers. I understand. I, too, have been slammed taking care of flood victims. I asked why they could not call her back and tell her that message. Corey responded, if I take five minutes to call 60 customers---you do the math!" When I asked why his office staff could not relay the info to a potential customer on the first, or subsequent calls, Cory became angry and told me to "get out" and pointed to the door. I will not be referring ANY of my good customers to Excel Electric in the future.
