Trevor and his team were great! The West Electric team reached out the same day I put in a request and were able to schedule just a few days after. We're all set up for charging and the install was perfect. Would definitely recommend West Electric for future services.
I ran into Bob Stern when I did not even own a home. I thought 'there is a guy I would like to do business with'. He is straightforward, honest and a strong communicator. He introduced me to West Electric because, as he said, it is the solar company that has fantastic integrity.
After having a huge solar panel system put on my house, I can completely agree. They were fast, courteous and on time. When I had a question about the software not responding, the owner showed up at my house to help out.
New technology, old fashioned service. Can't beat that.

Thank You for the kind words Jonathan, we strive to go above and beyond to ensure customers have the best experience. Bob is a great assit to our team and one of the nicest guys I have ever had the pleasure to work with 🙂 Let us know if you need anything at all. 
West Electric has done several outstanding jobs at our house, and I couldn’t be happier with their work. They have been professional, easy to contact, reliable, and detail-oriented from start to finish. It’s a relief to know the work was done right , and I’d highly recommend West Electric to anyone looking for quality service and trustworthy electricians.

Thank you , that means a lot to us. We try our best to make our customers EV experience a great one, we know when new to EV it can make people anxious 
We recently took the journey to solar energy production at our home in Enfield CT.
It began with an initial meeting with “Solar” Bob, who is very knowledgeable about converting to solar and the benefits of doing so. He responded to our questions and quelled any doubts we may have had.
West Electric was very responsive in guiding us through the design and install of the entire system. They communicated every step and organized all inspections to a positive end.
We are now “live” producing solar energy from our roof panels.
It looks great, produces great results and from the beginning of this journey, starting with Bob, who walked us through the steps and the Solar team at West Electric, led by Ed, we couldn’t be more pleased!
We would highly recommend you consider taking our journey into solar energy production with this great team!

Having my first experience with an all electric car and needing a Level 2 charger installed. The very first contractor I called was West. I called on a Sunday and Mr. West himself answered the call. I didn't bother calling anyone else and it was the right decision. He referred me to Anthony, his EV guru. Anthony and his staff held my hand through it all, from installation to applying ro Eversource for a rebate on the installation. Finally, received guidance on the town inspection process. And Derek, who installed the charger, was first rate. Every call and message I sent was answered almost immediately. Best contractor experience I've ever had.

Thank you so much, our team works very hard, so the kind words fuel their hardwork 🙂 I hope you enjoy your EV charging at home and if you need anything else, wether Solar or General Electrical don't hesitate to call anytime. Even if it is Sunday LOL. 
After the installation I am having many problems this is a bad service, I do not recommend it

Second Experiece with West Electric
I cannot say enough good things about West Electric and their movement and installation of my Level 2 Charger at my new place. From Ed West directly designing what was a complex installation; to the quality folks on the ground at my place; to the highly engaged administrative support from Kimberly, this a professional and customer oriented shop. They went above the call of duty by suggesting and implementing, at no additional cost, an upgraded electric capability and load management system to allow me to get more “juice” for charging. They are a quality shop that does top notch work. Every customer is treated hands-on like a VIP!
First Experience with West Electric
I contacted West Electric about installing a charger in the garage for my new Cadillac Lyriq EV. Ed West took the call directly and had an installation team there the same day and I was charging the car that very afternoon. Excellent service and very friendly demeanor. When you get your first EV, there is natural range anxiety, so it was very comforting that my Ultium Level 2 charger was installed inside of a day after contacting them.

Thanks James, I am happy we were in the area. I know range anxiety is rough, with myself being an EV owner. Let me know if you ever want to do Solar, we would be happy to evaluate it for you 🙂 
Wonderful service.. Professional and prompt!! I highly recommend the company.
