"Freier's provided an extensive estimate and took a great deal of time explaining how the system works, what to expect with the install, what the estimated cost savings and payback period would be.  They came out several times to discuss which method of coil installation would be best for our situation (vertical or horizontal) and they explained who would be here and when.
When the big day arrived, Ryan, who was the point person for the project, came out to meet us when the drillers showed up.During the project, he was very responsive to my concerns and also with an issue that came up in which the drillers couldn't frill as deep as they needed to (due to the depth of our well/water table).  Rather than forging ahead as originally planned and risk contaminating our drinking water, Freiers worked with the drillers to drill an additional 2 holes to compensate for the loss of area due to the shallower holes. 
Once the coils were installed, Freiers did a fantastic job getting the geo pump and electrical connections installed inside the house with the installation of an off-peak meter and connections from way across the house....they needed to do extensive re-routing of the eletrical for this but they made it work and were so pleasant!  They always showed up on time and worked diligently for several days until all was completed.
Once the system was ready to go, Freiers spent the needed time with us to explain how to use the controls and to understand what all the blinking lights meant and when to call in case of a problem.  About 6 months after the system was installed, something went awry with the geo pump.  I called and they came out immediately, determined that there was a bad circuit board somewhere, and replaced it free of charge within the same day.  The geo sustem works great, has saved us money, and I know that we are always 1 phone call away from Freier's if problems arise!  Excellent company.

"Replacing the staircase light fixture was a difficult job requiring the use of a ladder, a step ladder and an aluminum plank to create a level workspace in order to access the light. The new pendant was lowered by 6 inches, compared to the old one, to allow easy exchange of light bulbs. The electrician was creative in solving some installation problems.  He also saved me some money by advising me that some other electrical work I was considering might not be necessary."

"The pros did a great job under less than ideal circumstances. We have loose insulation in our small attic that they had to work around. They handled everything without complaints. We love our new lights and our new range hood works perfectly. Our kitchen looks so much nicer and up-to-date. I wish I had known how messy it was going to be. I would have covered everything with plastic."

"Mr. Hal Morris was responsive, detailed and kept us informed of the project. He provided us with a plan, followed through and answered our questions. He was also open to trying new material, copper, to the lattice panels. He also was so kind and installed four steel hooks so we could hang additional plants."

"Excellent service and professional staff. Completed work according to contract and did so in a timely fashion. Would never hesitate to call them again or recommend them to family and friends. They also took care of contacting inspectors and getting us a rebate from the electric company."

"Paul Landmann responded promptly to my request for a proposal, having been highly recommended by another service provider. The project was carried out on schedule, and the results are excellent. Replacement of back porch decking was in addition to the original proposal and was accomplished on a time and materials basis. Paul and Kelly were courteous and friendly, made appropriate suggestions, were very accommodating when asked to make small changes, worked steadily and were very attentive to detail. While I could probably have found someone to do this project for less money, I believe in the old adage, ''You get what you pay for,'' and the impressive results confirm this. I saved $600 by doing some demolition work myself, and Paul included some materials at no charge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this small company without reservation and would definitely hire them again."

"The salesperson was clear (mostly) and the work was done on time and well -- finished in one day and cleaned up very well. My one caveat is that the salesperson clearly stated that the work would be done by a local contractor, which was, I guess, technically true, since it looks like a local contractor subcontracted to a group of men (Polish or Russian) who drove up from Chicago and did the work. I was led to believe it would be done by local workers so that was a bit off-putting"

"Company was great, owner went over everything, was attentive and answered all questions. He came up with great solutions to work in a quirky area on a older house. Crew was hard-working and cleaned up great after completing the project. Purchased services through a deal on Angie's list and the owner worked with me to make the most of the pre-purchased amount of time."

"Overall it went smoothly. All of the workers were very considerate with the front door, and trying not to let the cat get outside. The three week estimate turned into five weeks, but with a bedroom that old I wasn't surprise (and they warned me to expect a few oddities). They present good options for each item; new bathtub, custom vanity, floor tile, wall tile. And listen to changes I wanted and took the time to understand why. The only thing I would do differently... get a better idea of what they need me to do and when it needs to get done. There was a problem with the granite that was originally selected and it wasn't communicated early enough to prevent a delay in the project. Not a huge issue, and it could've been avoided if i'd been more "hands on". I will use them again for my kitchen. I just hope Angie's List has another great deal when I'm ready."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Frontenac, MN

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
