Who We Are

Our Story

Chris Electric is a local electrical contractor based in White Bear Lake, Minnesota. Customers often work with Chris directly. Chris explains the job, sends the right electrician and keeps you updated while the work is in progress. That is what we think a White Bear Lake electrician should be.

Our crew handles everything from GFCI outlet installation to remodels and new construction. We also work in a lot of older homes around the east metro, with stone basements and wiring that has been added onto over the years, where fuse box replacement is often the first step.

The approach stays the same on every job: find the real problem, explain it in plain words, give a clear price and do the work to code.

How We Work

What We Stand For

These are the standards we hold ourselves to on every call, whether it is a dead outlet or a new panel.

  • Safety Comes First

    We fix the cause, not just the symptom. We do not cut corners to save time when your home and family are on the other side of the wall.

  • A Clear Price Before We Start

    You know what the job costs before any work begins, so you can decide without pressure.

  • Plain Explanations

    We tell you what we found and what your options are, in words that make sense, so you can make the call.

  • Work Done to Code

    Our work follows the Minnesota electrical code. When a job needs a permit, we pull it and the work gets inspected.

  • Updates While We Work

    We keep you posted on how the job is going, even while you are at work, until everything is done.

  • Respect for Your Home

    We treat your home with care, keep the work area tidy and clean up before we leave.
