  Bessler/Weibolt did my 240V installation a few years back, and honestly, it was a really frustrating experience. They initially quoted around $500, but things quickly went wrong. They were missing key materials like PVC conduit, forcing them to return to the shop and significantly delay the work. After the install, the state inspector found a problem, and they had to return to make changes without any prior communication. The final bill was nearly double the original quote. I followed up with Chad, but didn't get a response, and then I was suddenly being marked as “past due.” He eventually corrected the invoice, but it was a lot of hassle. To add to the problems, the 240V line created interference with my radio equipment, and after the installation, my washing machine’s GFI outlet started tripping. It turned out the new line was crossing a ground strap, and I had to switch it to a standard outlet. More recently, I discovered they’d installed the line in a way that pulled the box out of the wall, breaking the retaining tab and damaging the insulation – and the LB box on the exterior of my house even cracked and needed replacing. It was just a chaotic series of issues, and I wouldn’t recommend Bessler/Weibolt based on my experience. report abuse

  “I have to say, I can be a demanding client, and I appreciate Bessler Electric’s understanding of that. I wholeheartedly recommend them! Chad was fantastic – he was incredibly responsive, even going above and beyond by communicating with me after hours and on weekends. And the electrician, Spike, was truly exceptional. He took the time to thoroughly check with me while he was working on the cabin wiring, ensuring everything was exactly as I wanted, and he provided detailed notes and a map when the job was complete. Seriously, these guys are the best in the northland!” report abuse

Chad was incredibly helpful, spending hours on the phone coordinating with the on-call technician. Matt arrived quickly and efficiently diagnosed and fixed the problem, and he even took the time to explain everything to us. Great service overall – we really appreciate their professionalism and quick response.” report abuse

  “I ended up using a different panel than the one they recommended, and unfortunately kept the original one so I couldn’t return it. I tried reaching out to them a couple of times, but didn’t get a response.” report abuse
