    Zeller Electric did an excellent job on our solar installation. Their workmanship is outstanding and their service is very responsive. We were on a very tight timeline and they pulled out all the stops and got the work finished AHEAD of schedule. I can recommend them wholeheartedly.

    Used Zeller for connecting our office's new building UPS. They did a great job. Decided to give them a shot to try and troubleshoot an outlet we were having trouble with and a light switch. While the electrician that was sent out was here we also had him replace a breaker as well. Did equally good work as they did in our office.

    I called to make sure they did what I needed. When I found out that they are a full electric provider, the person I spoke with apologized profusely that it would be February 1 before they could get to me. I laughed and pointed out that was only the next week! Kyle showed up on time. He was friendly and efficient. He cleaned up after himself. It is great having Zeller close. I would hire they again eithout hesitation!

    Today for the first time in a year I have a working switch panel in my laundry room again, and for the first time in 6 years I have a fully functional outside light for my driveway. Paul was an awesome guy to talk to, super friendly and knowledgeable, and he did outstanding work on my house. Thanks!

    Zellar Electric delivered outstanding residential services at myself and my mother’s home. Cody, our electrician, patiently listened to our vision and executed the plan with precision and excellence! I highly recommend Zellar Electric. They are amazing!
