Veith Enterprises did an excellent job installing the generator and transfer switch. They were courteous and professional. They always returned my calls within 24 hours, and often times sooner. It was great to find an electric company that is extremely knowledgeable and reliable. Their pricing is competitive, and their work is top notch. Veith's attention to detail is truly evident in their work. For example, the transfer switch that they installed is the best looking panel in our basement (they mounted it on a grey wooden frame, which matches the color of the transfer switch). Veith Electric showed up early for a last minute appointment (in fact, they arrived early for all the appointments). After the installation, Dana Veith carefully showed me how the generator and transfer switch worked. He was patient with my questions and repeated technical details so that I understood. When you have a tight budget, an accurate estimate is critical and Veith proved themselves to be forthright. The bill was actually a few dollars less than the proposal. I am fortunate to have found Veith Enterprises on Angie's List, and I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Sold and installed an 11kW automatic standby generator, and 200-amp transfer switch with service disconnect.

The previous year's new heater tape installation had failed and caused much anxietyon a commercial buildling over the winter of 2013. In preparation for winter of 2014 ,we requested a new contractor to review tape and make recommendations. He recommended a different tape asking us to review the tape functions before to insure that we also approve. The electrician arrived on time and during inclement weather at that . With humor , he joked about possibility of rain stopping before he was able to finish the job. We waited for winter to pass before making Angie review , although we found the company very professional . Winter has passed, and the tape worked very well ! Much to everyone's relief ! Would we hire from this company again - you bet ! We intend to employ them for routine service check on building to insure that tape is working well etc etc . Thank you guys! at Veith Electric
Description of Work: The Veith Electrical company came to install new heater tape on roof of commercial building and install light reapir.

I will highly recommend Veith. I received excellent response, service and follow-up by Veith. I needed an electrician because of sparks coming from my circuit Panel box. I spoke to a friend who worked with Veith previously. His comments about Veith were that they are very good at what they do, honest and fair. I then checked Angie's List and found that others felt the same way about Veith. I called but had to leave a message. I received a call back within minutes and a tech was at my home within 2 hours. He took care of the immediate problem ad we agreed upon what needed to be done to fix the issues going forward. I received a quote back within a day and had a service team onsite within 2 days. Their service was excellent. The Service Tech, Rick, was ontime, efficient, and professional. They found a few other issues and took care of them as well but did not add any additional charge to the Invoice. After the work was completed, Rick went through what they had done and the proper operation of the new box. I also received a follow up call from Mr Veith making sure I was satisfied with the work. I was. I found the Veith Team to be professional, knowledgable and fair. I will use Veith again when I need Electrical work. I will also recommend Veith to anyone who asks

I worked with Don Veith, the owner. He is terrific and very personable. We corresponded primarily by email which is my preference, and he would always reply promptly to any of my questions. Because we had already identified most of the electrical circuits ahead of time (a very time-consuming task), Don gave us a very reasonable estimate. There were a few circuits we could not identify ahead as they were hard-wired and therefore asked the electricians to do those for us. I was worried this would increase the estimate but we were not charged extra for this work. A group of several electricians worked an entire day to separate the rats nest of electrical wire (the house has been through many configurations in its 150 year history) onto 4 separate panels. They finalized their work a few days later with the electric company and we received the certification of the job a few days later. Everything went extremely smoothly and the entire experience was extremely positive. I would highly recommend this company. It was an absolute pleasure working with Don.
Description of Work: Separated electric for 3 units.

His name is Don Veith. He opened up his schedule and came sooner as opposed to later for the estimate. But for whatever reason, I didn’t receive the written estimate. He could have mailed it and I may not have received it in the e-mail. He had my e-mail; that's why I am not sure why I didn’t receive it. I saw him the same day that I saw another electrical company. They both said that they would give me a written estimate. I received the one from the other company but I never the received the one from Veith. I haven't used anyone for the electrical yet, because I still want to get Veith's estimate to see what his estimate is. So far, there is no problem. I just have to call them or e-mail them just to remind them. I just really haven't had the time because we had some other home construction/renovation emergency.

We had a long list of rooms that needed central lighting and ceiling fans, and wanted to hang our 55" TV over the fireplace. Don Veith responded promptly to our request for an estimate, quickly turned around a detailed written estimate, and scheduled the work quickly. The two electricians who performed the work were great. They communicated what work the expected to get done each day, made suggestions about where things may be placed most practically while doing the least amount of damage to our walls and gave adequate warning when our requests would result in wall/ceiling damage. I felt like we paid a fair price for a good deal of work, and wouldn't hesitate to use them again for future electrical needs.
Description of Work: Wired and installed 3 ceiling fans. Replaced 4 hallway light fixtures with recessed lights. Installed 2 new recessed light fixtures. Wired and installed new lighting fixture. Installed a ceiling fan in 2 story great room. Wired two new outlets. Ran wires for flat panel TV and mounted it above our fireplace.

The two technicians arrived on time and completed their work within 2 hours. A 240 20 amp electrical line was professionally installed and tested. The technicians were friendly and very highly skilled. They explained exactly what was going to be done for each step and asking for my input to ensure the work was exactly as I wanted. My phone calls were answered promptly and the technicians arrived on time, were professional and completed the work in a very competent manner. All work was done to my satisfaction. I would not hesitate to use Veith Enterprises for any additional electrical work in the future.

Mr Veith got back to me in a timely fashion regarding the estimate and what would be involved. The two men came out on a Saturday(at my request) and worked diligently to get the job done. Mr. Veith came by to check on the job. We had a minor hiccup with regards to one of the fixtures I chose(due to the builders initial installation) and one of the men had to return to my home the following week. Excellent company and employees. I couldn't be happier and we will use them again in the future. They really are a top notch company!

Don came out the same day to do an estimate, and gave me a 'max' price estimate. I have since received multiple estimates at nearly $1000 less. After agreeing to the estimate it took 4 days to receive a call to schedule work. Workers showed up on time to do the first half of the work, they were on time and polite. Did good work, but used some cheaper Home Depot materials and installed the wrong size bulbs in each fixture. Also moved insulation in the attic to work and didn't replace any of it. Started receiving 2nd and 3rd notice harassing bills in full before the work had been completed despite being told I wouldn't owe anything til the job was done, and that my estimate was based on the number of hours required to complete the job. Receptionist was abrupt and unfriendly. Work was good, not great, and certainly did not live up to the price. Customer service left quite a bit to be desired. Wasn't a terrible experience, but certainly won't use them again.
Description of Work: Replaced old lighting with 8 high-hat lights. Replaced approximately 15 receptacles. Hung new chandelier. Ran 1 hdmi cable for TV.

They responded promptly with a quote, scheduled the service within a few days, and showed up on time. Work was well done, no mess. Employees were friendly, courteous, and professional. They installed the plug, wiring, and transfer switch exactly as promised, providing typed instructions mounted by the fuse/service box as a reminder of the connection procedure. They then asked me to fire up the generator, and walked me through the process to ensure everything worked. Overall, the best experience I've had with an electrician in this area.
Description of Work: I needed a portable generator wired into the house. They needed to install a plug outside the house (where I can connect the generator), ran the wiring across the basement, and connected it into the fuse/service box, with a safety cutoff switch to prevent electricity from flowing back out of the house when using the generator.

Don was very professional. He showed up the same day as I called and quickly assessed the problem. He fully described the problem and solutions, then provided a full estimate. I had to be out of town when the actual work was done, but Don stayed in contact prior to and after doing the work. When I returned from my trip, I found the work completed and I am still amazed at what an excellent job Don did. The new construction looks like it will outlast the house itself and the work area was left in pristine condition. I received a bill for the agreed upon amount a few days later in the mail with a SASE. I highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: The electric cable from the street to my house was partially torn off of my roof by an storm. The cable was still attached, but hanging on only by the ground wire. A large piece of flashing was also torn off. Don obtained all of the necessary permits and set up for the inspection before starting the work which consisted of putting up a new pipe (my words) from the outside electric box up above the roof line and replacing all the damaged cables. The work was done impeccably and in fact is clearly a major improvement over the original attachment. In addition, Don replaced the flashing and got rid of the electric hum that's was plaguing us for years.

The experience was totally great!. Dana Veith who does the installations was very professional and extremely knowledgeable of his craft. He explained everything that he did; the whys and hows. They were efficient, clean and made no extra work for the homeowner. I am extremely happy with Veith Electric and would fully recommend them to anyone that wants a professional job done. Just an additional word about Dana. He is constantly going to school to update his knowledge on all types of generators and literally seems to know anything that would or could go wrong with one. He was a perfect gentleman and really takes pride in his work and company.
Description of Work: Veith installed a standby generator for us. This included sizing, ordering and installing it. They did the necessary electrical wiring in the basement, garage and hooked it up to the generator. They had to run a new main line into the house, turning off the power, and then getting us back on line. Everything went like clock work without a snag.

Description of Work: We lost power due to auto accident striking a nearby pole. After our home burned down, I called Veith inc, and the owner, Don Veith, called me within a few minutes. He told me he'd come in the morning and was there promptly on Sunday. Our electrical system was fried. He and his crew did an outstanding job getting our home back to order, He replaced our power box to the electric dog fence, He replaced the siding to the rear of our home, he fixed/replaced the wiring in our attic and several other small projects. He assisted us with the local power company in resorting power and facilitating repairs to our home. He even recommended several other contractors who could help us with other problems we had with our home. Outstanding 10 star service!!!

His employee was on time and quickly installed the unit at the price given inthe estimate. He was neatly dressed, and kept us informed as to what he was doing (ie turning the power on and off).
Description of Work: Having had problems with electric spikes, we wanted a whole house surge suppressor. We contacted Don Veith due to the good reviews on Angie's list. He suggested one particular unit, gave us a very reasonable price, answered all my questions, and returned all calls promply. I was happy to note the unit he recommended not only had excellent specifications when compared to higher priced models, but was installed on a house on the "Holmes Inspection" show. Time will tell next summer during thunderstorms as to the units effectiveness.
