Customer Focused

Informative, curious, and responsive group of people. Able to get a response in a day or less with any questions even after having the system for over a year. Once the sale is done the customer service continues. Very mature group of workers that are respectful.

Great product and great install

It was so easy. Salesman - Matt was so helpful with my initial install - he explained everything and stayed with the project through completion. I was SO happy, I have worked with Matt for TWO more projects. Katie and Matt at Carlson are great to work with. Highly recommend them.. Thank you, LRS

Carlson does quality work

We have been very pleased with the installation of our PV system (solar panels with battery storage) in northern Wisconsin installed by Carlson Electric. I learned of Carlson through UW-Madison Extension and Legacy Solar Co-op. Communication during the whole process was very good. Follow-up after the installation with any questions we’ve had has been great. (Thanks Cal!) The crew doing the installation was very friendly and focused on the install. Having been so satisfied with Carlson’s work in northern Wisconsin we have recently had them install a similar system at our primary residence in the Fox Valley. It’s working great!

Great Customer Service, Staff and Support

Even though there were delays, logistical, my experience was great. Every call or email was promptly responded to and I never felt like I was abandoned to the "we are busy he'll just have to wait" category. They came out regularly even though the project could not be completed due to waiting on parts. The installation was done extremely professional. One can tell they take pride in what they do. Top notch service and expertise and you will not be disappointed.

More than Satisfied

Carlson Electric was helpful throughout the whole process from proposed savings, estimates to installation. Now we see a minimal electric bill and checks from the electric company from what they buy back.

Excellent solar project install

Dave and his crew installed a solar system with batteries and backup generator. Every crew member was extremely knowledgeable, courteous and answered all of our questions. We are very pleased with the project and we have recommended Carlson Electric to several friends. We thank Dave and his crew for a enjoyable process
