Panel kept tripping at 11 PM on a Sunday. Called Thornton Electric and someone was at the door within 40 minutes. Replaced the full panel that night — no emergency upcharge, no attitude. Absolutely the best experience I've had with a contractor.

★★★★★

Had them install a Level 2 EV charger and add outdoor motion lights in the same visit. Showed up on time, pulled the permit, passed inspection first try, cleaned up completely. I've already recommended them to three neighbors.

Kitchen lighting was a disaster from a previous contractor. Thornton Electric came in, diagnosed it correctly, redid all the wiring under permit, and the result looks like it came out of a magazine. Night and day difference.

James R.

★★★★★

Generator installation was flawless. They handled everything — permits, the utility coordination, the inspection. Walked me through the whole transfer switch system before they left. Haven't worried about power outages since.

Anna P.

★★★★★

Video doorbell wiring plus 6 new outlets throughout the house. Fair price, clean work, zero mess. The tech explained everything he was doing as he went. This is the only electrician I'll ever call in Thornton.
