Customer Reviews
Kellen Saxberg
Really great service and they did an awesome job. I’m a first time home-owner and they were really great with explaining different options and what might best fit my home. I had both painters and electrician’s come in to do work. Both times they were efficient and the results are great. Nice people. Sam was fantastic at coordinating and walking me through the process. We had lots of work done and it was done quickly and reliably :)
Notoka Marbles
I am excited to complete this review. A big thank you goes out to Sam and his team for the electrical work they completed for my dad. I really appreciate how Sam showed concern for my father and worked hard to make sure he was happy with the work. He also came back a few times to make sure things were working properly. I recommend STS Electric not only for the work, but for the care they show to people as that is truly a treasure. Again, thank you Sam and team!
Coach Grams
STS Electric exceeded my expectations with their Level 2 EV charger installation. Sam, the estimator, provided a transparent bid that was slightly higher than others but reflected their commitment to quality without cutting corners—I’m glad I chose them. Ana in customer service was fantastic, handling invoicing and ensuring everything was set up perfectly for my rebate application. The installation team delivered quick turnaround, excellent service, and open communication throughout. Highly recommend for transparency and quality workmanship!

STS helped when the circuit board blew on our rental. They were very communicative throughout the entire process, especially considering I couldn’t be there to check the work at the time. The final product was clean, well done and organized.
