Only Electrician to use in Brainerd area, there is a reason they are always so busy. It is because they do quality work and are honest.

Nicolas recently installed under cabinet lighting in our kitchen and bath fan timers in all our bathrooms. He was very efficient, professional, and courteous. I highly recommend Evergreen Electric.

We have used Evergreen for all our electrical needs and they have done a great job every time. They are busy so be patient. They just wired a new storage facility at our Brainerd location and could not be happier.

Contracting with Evergreen Electric was one of the worst decisions of our new construction build. The owner repeatedly deferred work, causing us as homeowners to perform some of the work to keep our schedule moving forward. No less than 3 times, he called us to rant about scheduling concerns we raised with him and continuously deflected any responsibility for his role in ensuring communication was taking place, schedules were established, and adhered to. It was a constant battle to get work completed. However most egregious experience with this contractor occurred after we occupied the home. To start, the County electrical inspector identified an issue with the burying of an electrical line to the home, which was not completed by the contractor. The contractor was notified of the issue and his response was he would get to it when he had time. While waiting for the previously mentioned fix and 5 months into occupancy, the septic backed up and created a huge mess in our yard, requiring significant cleanup time and money to pay a septic company to help us identify the ultimate problem; the electrician, Evergreen, overlooked a fundamental responsibility to wire the septic pump, causing the backup. To add to the frustration, we had been previously billed and had paid the contractor for the wiring as if it had been completed. This experience also led to the discovery of a plumbing pipe that an electrician drilled through; the pipe had not leaked until the septic problem occurred. It was raining in our basement. In our brand-new home. When brought to the attention of the electrical contractor, he visited our home to confirm our issues, saying “it happens,” no apology, no escalation to fix the problem asap, no accountability. We spent more than a week with an extension cord from our house to the pump until the contractor got around to completing the work. When asked by us to pay for the plumbing fix, the electrician stated a fix was required to the electrical line to the house because the line was not buried deep enough; again, if he had done the work as agreed in the first place, this could have been prevented. It was his opinion that this was an equal financial trade-off for the expense of the plumbing fix. Such a simple gesture it would have been to pay the bill, providing him an opportunity for some level of redemption for his poor conduct, yet he remained consistent in his poor business practices. We would never have contracted with him if there were any hint of this kind of behavior. The behavior was bad enough, the quality of work was just as poor. Do your homework before contracting with this guy.

If I could rate less than 1 star I would. Work was mediocre which I could possibly look past if the owner could conduct himself professionally and not act like a petulant child. He was very hard to communicate with, never committed to timing and not once but twice, called to rant at us for asking questions like when he could fit us into his schedule, despite having a contract with him nearly a year old (in addition to half down to do the work). Apparently 6 weeks just isn't enough notice for him. We never did learn what adequate notice was for him. Thank goodness we're finally finished with our build. Out of all of the contractors we worked with, this guy stood out the most and not in a good way. I would not recommend.

Hired to work on a small remodel , expand the kitchen, move a bathroom, wire an off peak water heater and a few other things . . Was given an estimate of time and material. Would not give me an upfront cost . So the guy showed up with an apprentice, which in itself is ok . Every time I turned around I found myself in conversation with the guy. This kind of raised a red flag, but let it go. After the first phase of the work was completed I asked for the bill out of good faith pay as you go. I was charged full price for the electrician , and full price for the apprentice who had maybe 6 months of experience and obviously can not work unsupervised on actual wiring. So I expressed my concern to the the electrician who had to come by and get a tool he forgot and thought we had an agreement going forward. The owner sent me an email stating they do not want to work anymore never addressing my concerns. Now I understand what time and material mean. Asked owner to reconsider and asked for a phone call to address concerns and was just given a return email indicating it would not be a good fit . No phone call , Never addressing my main concern of being charged full price for a new apprentice on a time sensitive job !
