  I can’t say enough about how pleasant it was to work with Sam Fisher. He was accommodating to our needs, took pride in his work, and was patient and knowledgeable. He’s the best!

  I would like to take this opportunity to thank Badger electric and my Electrician (Sam). He doing such an amazing wonderful  job. . I called six electricians in Janesville either no answer or not able to get to me anytime soon. My next phone call was to Badger electric they answered promptly and the Electrician (Sam) got right back in touch with me. He was out to the house the next day. . He was Friendly, kind, professional, and generally concerned for my situation. He stayed until the job got done. He met with the inspector for me and did such a great job. The inspection passed and my electric was turned back on. I would highly recommend Badger electric to all my friends and family, and I will use badger electric from now on. A  Special thank you to Sam For listening to me and understanding my situation and taking care of it as fast as possible you were a lifesaver!  Thanks again!

  We contacted Badger Electric after hours for non-emergency service, but they messaged the next AM and came right over. Sam, our electrician, was an excellent commutator, and quickly identified/addressed the "issue."

By issue I mean "mouse that fried itself chewing through wires on an outdoor fixture."

We would absolutely call Badger again, and would recommend them to others.

  Great communication leading up to the project with the Badger Electric team. Day of the project went smoothly. Niko showed up on time and gave some valuable input on how to best finish the job. Extremely friendly and professional. I will definitely be using them if we have any future electrical needs and will highly recommend them.

  Back in December we had these guys come out to fix the outlets in our wall.  The guy came and replaced the outlet and said it was fixed.  A couple of nights ago the lights did the same thing and went out.  We called them and told them we didnt think we should be charged for another service visit and the problem had returned.  Today they came and spent 5 hours in my house.  The guy had no idea what was wrong.  When we got home we noticed that 2 of the outlets in the kitchen are now not working but he did fix the outlets in the bedroom.  Checked all the GFI's and reset all breakers in the house.  Still, the kitchen outlets are now busted.  We got the bill - 968.00 - 15 dollars in parts - 900 bucks in labor and it states on the bill that it was a lose wire.  900 bucks to fix a lose wire?  Steve, (im assuming the owner) called and I explained to him that this was a follow up call and Im not paying that much to fix a lose wire.  He flipped out on me and started swearing - stated he would put a lien on my house etc.  Absolutely horrible.  We now have more broken outlets from his tech and a huge bill.

Update:
After reading further reviews on this guy it looks like his deceptive practices go way back.  He has made the same threats to other people and there are complaints of massive over charging and faulty work. He is also claiming BBB accreditation when he is not BBB accredited.  I reported this to the federal trade commission. In his comments it appears he is the kind of guy who takes NO accountability and blames the customer for everything.
