I had a great experience with the technician Ben. He showed up on time, was very thorough, and even matched the the outlet with the wall color! The old outlet had been wired with reverse polarity so he repaired that. Excellent work and explained everything he was doing. I would not hesitate to use Bear Electric again!

Pro tip... Dont hibernate on Bear Electric!!Needed a new light installed, some outlets replaced and a new switch in the garage. Ryan answered promptly and was over the same day to give me a free quote. The price was very reasonable, but most importantly the work completed was worth every penny and then some. Ryan was easy to work with and was over the same week as the quote to get the job done.On time, worked hard and left the place super clean. Very impressive all around and happy to recommend Bear to anyone looking for an electrician in the Lincoln area!
FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer free estimates and price by the job and not by the hour. my prices are honest, fair and transparent.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
discussing the parameters of your project via email/text/phone call then setting up a free estimate to further evaluate the job. once accepting the estimate we can set a date for your project. i don't collect payment until the job is finished or we hit a stopping point in the construction process and you are pleased with the work.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan University as well as completed the apprenticeship program at Associated Builders & Contractors, Inc. in Lincoln.
