  I cannot say enough good things about Skelly Electric and the outstanding work they did correcting my whole-house generator wiring. I had a Kohler 26KW whole-house generator installed by another company. While they did a decent job installing the generator itself, the communication was terrible, and, more importantly, they never really consulted me about what circuits should be backed up. Despite having a 26KW whole-house generator, only one panel in my house was connected to the generator, and it primarily protected garage circuits. My expectation was that the entire house—including both HVAC systems—would be backed up. That’s where Skelly Electric came in. Jim Kelly, VP at Skelly Electric, came out, carefully analyzed my existing configuration, and basically shook his head at the way the electrical system had been set up. He explained what needed to be done, provided a very competitive quote, and gave me complete confidence that they could get the system working the way it should have been configured in the first place. After I accepted the quote, one of Skelly’s senior electrical technicians, Michael, came out to perform the work. It was brutally hot outside, but Michael never cut corners. He did an absolutely beautiful job. He was a true perfectionist, and it showed in every detail. The wiring, connections, and overall installation were incredibly neat, clean, and orderly. Honestly, it was a masterpiece of electrical workmanship. When Michael finished, we tested the system—and the generator finally did exactly what I had expected it to do all along. It properly powered my house, including the circuits that should have been backed up from the beginning. I cannot express how pleased I am with the work Skelly Electric performed. From Jon, the System Administrator, who coordinated everything and worked with Jim on the quote, to Jim’s professional evaluation and planning, to Michael’s exceptional workmanship, the entire Skelly team was fantastic. It is rare these days to find a company that combines excellent communication, competitive pricing, technical expertise, and pride in workmanship the way Skelly Electric does. If you need generator work—or honestly, any electrical work—I would highly recommend Skelly Electric without hesitation. They took a frustrating situation and turned it into a first-class installation. I couldn't be happier with the result!

  This is an update from my previous review. They sent a different technician out to my house who was on time and outstanding. I am glad I gave them a second chance.

  I had an appointment today and the arrival time was between 1pm and 2 pm. At 2:00 no one showed so I called John to see if they were coming. John said the technician was working on a job and we were next in line. When no one arrived, I then called again at 3:30 to speak with John and the person who answered the phone said John would call be right back. The technician (Kona) then called me 30 minutes later (now close to 4:00) saying he was at least 1 hour from coming. I said waiting another hour was not acceptable and to cancel my job. Kona told me they were having issues with his current project. John then called me back saying generally the same thing. When I said I think I deserved a call telling me there were issues and the technician was running late he said that they got really busy and calling me slipped his mind. This made me feel very invaluable as a customer. I guess they do not mind me waiting 4 hours for a service I never got. The customer service I got today was totally unacceptable to me.
