    Artem and David are amazing! I’ve been using front range electric for many years. Always professional, reliable, and kind! I wouldn’t use anyone else

    Chris came to my home to install can lights in my kitchen and move some wiring for a new hood over my range. He was friendly, professional, and fast. He explained everything to me in great detail throughout the process so that I could make the best decisions for my home. I would definitely work with Front Range & Chris again!

    Today was the electrical finish for our kitchen remodel. Front Range Electric sent out Nick and Leon to put in the LED lights, switches, and install our new (rather large) ceiling fan. We even had lights installed under the cabinets. They arrived promptly this morning and finished around 3:00. Every light looks great and work just like it is supposed to. Both of our electricians were young (early 30’s I’m guessing).
    They seemed to really enjoy working and working together. They even sang to the music on their radio! It nice to see and hear people who like their jobs and work hard at it.
    I can’t forget Leo. Leo was the first electrician who did all the initial re-wiring. Leo did a masterful job of moving wires and adding some breakers to our electrical box. Without asking, he fixed some of my “creative” wiring. One thing that my wife and I are very grateful for is our garage door opener works like new. In my “creative” wiring I must have messed something up. We are quite happy with the changes and the beautiful lighting.
    Thank you Front Range Electric!

    Called because one of our breakers tripped, the panel gave an ARC warning and would trip again the moment I tried to reset it. Peter came within 2 hours, fixed it for us, and explained how it happened and what to do next time. Great, quick service.

    I would give him 10 stars out of 5 if I could. I have a list of electrical work to do in my home. Peter gave me a quote for all the work as separate projects. He was easy to schedule with. The first job he did was disconnect a shed with power (because the shed is being moved). The outlet next to the shed on the back of the house, I still wanted it to be a live outlet. There were 2 boxes which could of been the live outlet, a blank one and one that the shed was connected to. I didn't know which one to use, so Peter suggested we use the one box for the live outlet and remove the outlet where the shed was connected to altogether because it had the piping attached to it and would look ugly on the wall with the other box there as well. I took his suggestion and when I saw the result was so glad I went with his suggestion where I did not know better. He was completely right. He put a gorgeous outlet in that has a plastic door over it that pops out. He also made me pop it out to make sure I knew how to do it. He was easy to work with, great communication and highly skilled! I have more projects that he will be doing and I'm so glad to have him on board! Someone I can completely trust, not only to do a great job, but to make suggestions of what to do where I don't know any different! Thank you Peter for being so great!!!

    Artem did amazing work. Was very professional, punctual, and quick with his work. I would 100% recommend Front Range Electrical for EV charger installation.

    Finding awesome services are difficult but I knew when I got a call from Peter this would work out. Matt came out and installed our 220V and an entryway light in no time and their price was super reasonable. Will definitely use them again. Thanks for the great service!!

    The original lighting in my garage left a lot to be desired; it was enough to prevent me from tripping and having an accident, but offered little else. I selected Front Range Electric to perform an upgrade.

    Front Range Electric is a local business, established close to 20 years ago. My experience with them confirms their team is a premier CO provider. Small residential to large commercial, they are a company you can trust.

    As I was studying my options, Peter from Front Range dispatched to perform a site survey. We discussed several solutions. Later, Charlie provided me with a detailed estimate.

    Lighting can be very subjective. What works for one person might not for another. But there are some common definitions.

    Lumens is the amount of light, the intensity of light, striking a given area.

    Frequency notes the color of the light, higher frequencies being bluer, whiter.

    Ambient light is the overall light in a given area.

    Task lighting is specialized lighting, for a workbench or hobby area.

    In the original setup, I had two ceiling lights in one section, giving the garage 4.5 lumens a Square Foot, the CFL light bulbs coming in at about 3500K (yellow/soft yellow). I came up with the attached: a design which would give me close to 30 lumens a SF of 5000K light.

    David and Joey from Front Range Electric were assigned to the project. A drawing and ceiling markings gave them an idea what I was looking for. Of all the time spent, most was on measuring and then cutting the ceiling, several checks being performed from different reference points to ensure everything lined up perfectly in the correct locations.

    Throughout the installation, David and Joey took a detailed, methodical approach. They were not interested in completing the job quickly. They wanted it done right. They treated my garage as if it was their own.

    The end result was dramatic. Previously, the garage was a cave. Now, it's like I'm standing outside on a sunny day. From one inch of the garage to the other, there is, clear, bright, ambient light. Any shadows involving objects are subtle, subdued.

    Several references I studied noted 20 lumens a SF for a garage would be considered a minimum. 30 a SF works well for me. Any brighter, I feel the area would begin looking harsh and antiseptic.

    Some prefer the LED light strips versus individual drops. Looking for ambient light, I felt drops were more appropriate; this solution is more granular, the light spread out over the entire area.

    If considering a similar project, I'd focus on ambient light first, trying that out, then install any specialized or task lighting afterwards.

    I used simple, common, Phillips 1500 lumen, 5000K bulbs. Total electrical load, all lights on in the garage, is 135 watts, about 1 amp of current. For a larger volume, like a tall RV garage or barn, common lamps might not work well. Specialized fixtures for something like a warehouse might be more appropriate.

    5000K bulbs are bright, white light. For the garage, they work. Inside the home in a living room, probably not. If you're unsure, buy a few bulbs and try them out. If you have a light you can move around, get a ladder and do so, to help give you can idea where the lights can be installed.

    Finally, if installing a series of drops, consider segmenting those into zones. While I love the new lighting, it's a bit much if just popping in and out of the garage. The ability to light one area at a time, or all of it, is nice.

    You've got a lot of options with electrical and lighting in-particular. Whether a repair or upgrade, Front Range Electric is a team you can rely on to ensure the work will be done to the highest standard.

    I had a potential electrical issue after a motion security had been incompletely installed and not sealed before this impending upcoming rain/snowstorm. Another electrician I called couldn’t come for several days, so frantically I called Front Range Electric. Owner Peter answered and assured it would be taken care of today (24 hours before storm arrives). Glen gave a courtesy call before arriving and Immediately assessed the issue. The motion light had been connected improperly. He rearranged the wires correctly and efficiently reattached the lights and applied sealant so the rain/snow wouldn’t cause damage. Cost was reasonable and well deserved, and I was GRATEFUL for Peter and for Glen! I am now a customer for life! As a retired teacher, I assessed performance for 16 years. Front Range deserves an A+ for responsiveness, reasonable cost, polite, respectful, going above and beyond, and sending a skilled electrician! AWESOME! Thank you!

    Nich and Sergei did an awesome job and worked very fast without missing any details. They came out on a Saturday morning only two days after I initially called to make an appointment. Front Range's pricing is just right and they won't try to talk you into any unnecessary upgrades to make an extra buck. I definitely recommend this company for any electrical work, no matter how big or small.

    I had an AFCI breaking tripping everytime my washer ran. Peter was able to come out a few hours after I called and was able to give me a solution that worked perfectly. Price was reasonable and work was done quickly and professionally. I would work with them again.

    Easily the best electrician team in Colorado. Been living here almost 8 years and Peter (the boss) are exceptional to deal with. Had Peter and Leo install this beautiful light quickly and expertly

    Peter was absolutely amazing. What I thought was my smoke alarms blaring, turned out to be just an old carbon monoxide monitor. He could have easily said that I needed to replace my system of smoke alarms but instead found the problem instead of guessing. Truly appreciate his honesty and will definitely recommend Front range if anyone asks. Thank you again for all your help and quick service.
