Swartz Electric is the best of the best. Their customer service was on it from day one, they have been in constant communication and set great expectations via email, phone calls and text. They quoted me for running dedicated lines from my panel to the bar, wired my wine chiller and refrigerators, put dimmers on the cans and pendant lights and fixed my mistakes I made with the bathroom lighting. Needless to say, mine was a pretty big job that they knocked out in a day and a half. All technicians were friendly and professional. They showed up on time and worked quickly. Great attention to detail. They might be a bit more than some, but for the scope of work they were very reasonable. You definitely won't be sorry you paid the money. I highly recommend Jairo Villalobos and his team (Briana, Bruce, and "Jaco"). Swartz Electric has my vote for the best electricians and service in Colorado Springs and possibly all of CO. Once the bar is completely done I'll post the pictures to show off the incredible job they did! read more

I do not recommend this company. It was acquired in November 2025. Disregard any great reviews prior to that date--it's a fundamentally different business now. Summary: Electrician was here less than an hour, flipped some switches in my electrical box, and charged me ~$400. I had used this company prior to the acquisition/merger, and they were phenomenal. I thought I'd found my "no-brainer"--any time I needed electrical work done, I'd go to Swartz. Based on my recent experience, I would never do business with them again. Post-acquisition, there is a ~$58-$68 fee that is simply a dispatch charge to get an electrician to your door and does not include any actual work or troubleshooting. That fee itself is reasonable. What followed was not. A simple electrical issue was escalated into an unnecessary "advanced diagnostic" costing $381 (also new as of the acquisition), only for the electrician to eventually discover that the problem was just partially tripped breakers that needed to be fully reset. That is the most basic troubleshooting step and should have been done immediately. There is no safety rule, code requirement, or licensing restriction that prevents an electrician from resetting a breaker during an initial assessment. An electrician might reasonably pause only if there is evidence of burn marks, overheating, a breaker that immediately re-trips, water intrusion, known damaged wiring, or commercial lockout-tagout requirements. None of those conditions applied here. Any suggestion otherwise reflects company policy or sales process--not an industry standard. Instead of resolving the issue upfront, I was pushed toward advanced diagnostics and then told the $381 diagnostic fee could be waived if I agreed to replace three plug-in breaker components for approximately $1,200. The components were on the older side, but still functional. They will one day die, and when they do, it will not be Swartz Electric replacing them. This experience felt like a textbook upsell rather than competent, methodical troubleshooting. Nothing about this situation justified advanced diagnostics or costly replacements. The issue required no parts, no special tools, and no advanced expertise. Given how different the experience was before the acquisition, I strongly suspect many of the positive reviews reflect the company as it used to operate, not how it does now. Proceed with extreme caution. read more

Swartz has worked on several projects for us over the years from upgrading panels and wiring hot tub, to quick little jobs. They have always been professional, responsive, and thorough. This last visit Jack came out, diagnoses the problem, got it fixed quickly and got us some quotes the same day on a few other projects we are thinking about. read more

This company is an absolute ripoff, They charged my elderly mother $4300 to change a few smoke detectors and GFI outlets. Less than 2 hours of work and $250 worth of materials. They are predators. read more

Good communication, quick response, and decent price (all electricians are expensive). Robert relocated cable for TV to the opposite side of the house and removed a light fixture. Job was done quickly and everything is nice and neat looking. read more

Anthony and the other tech came out to give me an estimate on disconnecting a hot tub, they ended up doing it that day, took less than an hour and explained the process every step of the way! So appreciated, they did a great job! Thank you! read more

We have used Swartz for many years now. Every tech they send is informative, helpful, efficient, and kind. Jack and Anthony took care of our punch list quickly and with a smile. They answered all of our questions, gave us pricing upfront to make informed decisions and gave us tips for future electrical projects as well. It is nice to work with folks who clearly love what they do. read more

Remarkably quick response to my request. Installation of electric panel was accomplished efficiently and correctly.

This company is TERRIFIC! The appointment was scheduled promptly, the electrician Jack showed up on time, with a text ahead of time with his picture and his 4.9 star rating. As soon as he spoke, my husband and I knew he was a man of integrity whose word was his bond. He did a great job hanging the chandelier. And he fixed a lighting problem in our bedroom's with the touch of a button! We'd ask for Jack again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Swartz Electric read more

I got bids from 2 electricians for an EV charger install and I wish now I had used the other one. Although the Swartz quote was higher at $1000, I went with them as they said they would install going through the attic access that is in the garage and go down to the charger instead of going across the studs and they guaranteed a pass. The installation I got instead is a mess with going up and down through the studs instead of through the attic area and it did NOT pass. I was told by the electrician that the office would call to schedule the inspection, after a week I called the office only to be told they didn't know a permit was requested (yet it was in the installation and listed in quote). The office told me they would call me when they knew the inspector would come out. Nope, instead I got a call from the inspector the next day and said he was on his way thankfully I hadn't left the house yet but was about to, so I stuck around. He failed the inspection due to no GFI breaker. I called Swartz and let them know they failed, and they sent out 2 people for the next day. According to them it didn't need a GFI breaker as it was built into the charger itself. They said they would contact the inspector and get it sorted out. I then texted the office telling them to let me know if the inspector would need to come back or email me the passed permit. Two weeks went by with no communication, and I checked the website for building permits, and it is still listed as a Fail. I left a voicemail yesterday and had my husband leave one today and no response. I spent $1000 on an EV charger to be installed to fail and not be installed the way I was quoted. Their communication is terrible; they can't pass inspection but they already have my money so what do they care? I will be using a different company when we finish our basement. read more

After waiting a month for an estimate, and taking the morning off work to sit and wait for them to show up, I finally called with 30 minutes left in the window only to be told they'd "sent an email cancelling the appointment" because they "don't have the staff to do the job." I eventually found that they did send an email, from a name that wasn't their normal company domain name (.biz instead of .com) so gmail sent it instantly to SPAM. I'm sorry, but cancelling an agreed upon and confirmed appointment is something you do over the phone, not via an email. I wanted a Federal Pacific breaker box swapped out. They literally sell that as a kit to electricians. A month-long wait to be told they won't take my money even if I want to pay them. Amazing. And that's after they cost me a half-day of work. An electrical contractor that doesn't have the staff to do electrical work. Absurd. I'll give them one extra star because their spam-folder cancellation notice included other companies that may actually want to do work. Now I just have to decide if I'd trust them to offer advice on electricians. read more

Greg and his team did an amazing job Increasing the amperage for a new heat pump install.

Jeremy came out to correct some electrical issues we have & he was VERY PROFESSIONAL, INFORMATIVE, THOROUGH & HELPFUL. Thank you Jeremy for your work that you completed today!! Ed & Tina Contract read more

We requested for an outlet to be placed over our fireplace. They quoted us the best price compared to other companies that we called. They were on time, communicated well , and got the job done. Our specific request was much more difficult than it sounds. And we knew we would need someone with a lot of knowledge in the field. They sent a technician by the name of Michael Garcia. He was phenomenal! He was precise, he knew what he was doing, and was professional. We honestly will always ask for him for any of our electrical needs in the future. We can't say enough about his skill set and how much he exceeded our expectations. We recommend Swartz electric, but specifically Micheal. read more

We highly recommend Swartz Electric, they are very professional and reliable! Nathan and Jack arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and are coming back next week to assist us with our home needs. We are so happy we found this company! read more

Friendly employees, who deliver great service which is done right the first time. Very impressed. Will hire them again.

They arrived when they said they would. Great communication. They rescheduled the next day for me when I had an issue. They accomplished the mission quickly. I'm going back to these guys every time I need help. read more

I've used them several times and they are fast and efficient. They're busy because of the high quality of the work they do but are well worth the wait. Definitely my "go to" electrical company. read more

All in all did a good job. Paid $325 to have an outlet added above my fireplace. Only took the technician about 30-40 minutes to install. Reason for the 4 out of 5 star is quality of work and price. The 30-40 minutes of work seemed to cost a lot. The quality of work was compromised when the technician hit a stud that he didn't see with the saw and had to move the outlet slightly to the left leaving a saw hole exposed in my wall. A stud finder could have avoided this mishap. Tried filling it with white caulk on a gray wall (see photo). read more

I contacted Swartz Electric to have the transfer switch installed on my home breaker panel. Chris S, with Swartz Electric, arrived at my house to install the transfer switch which he said would be simple to do plus the device came with complete instructions. However, Chris S mis-wired the transfer switch to the breaker box resulting in him destroying my Yeti battery backup system while testing if the transfer worked. This mistake cost me over $2,000 for a replacement Yeti. I will not use this company again nor recommend Swartz Electric. read more

I called the office to make appointment. Advised of the laundry list I wanted to have done. The office allocated 5 hours and it would be $128. per hour. They arrived at 8:45. I wanted to have door bells replaced (which I purchased prior to their arrival - 3), and I had a new transponder. They only replaced one and charged me for a transponder, they said they would use the new one I have for the other doors which they would have to come back to do as there wasn't enough time as they were only allocated 4 hours; however they were here only 3. I wanted them to find the original transponder to my doorbell so they could hook the door bells up to the current configuration. They walked around, advised I thought it was in the addic. They said they thought it would take them an hour to look for it and it would cost me more money. In my mind, that translates to laziness. They found a work around by cutting into the sheet rock and putting the transponder into the wall. Not what I had wanted, but needed to have this done. I had 3 other lights replaced which I purchased prior to their arrival, and I purchased a hardwire smoke alarm from them. They charged me $721. That is price gouging. I will say the guys were nice and did try to find a solution, other that what I was looking for. However, I was not impressed. I did call the office and advised of how unhappy I was, they ended up refunding me $240. I wanted to let others know that the office tried to make things right, which I appreciate - however, this should have never happened with the guys in the field. read more

Well worth every penny the elections really know their stuff. Very professional technician and extremely knowledgeable.

GREAT service, communication and on-time. Quickly assessed problem and went the extra mile.

This is the 3rd time we have used Swartz Electric. They show up when they say they will, are very professional, charge a reasonable fee, and are very pleasant to work with! Swartz Electric is our "go to" electrician and we wouldn't think of using anyone else! read more

We determined we had a likely electric issue in our garage late in the day. We were able to get a same day appointment Into the evening. Our scheduled electrician was running behind so another person from the company (not an electrician) arrived early to get the work prepped and walk me through that he suspected the concern was. The work was done in 20 minutes or less. They were both exceptionally nice and helpful. I would highly recommend this company. read more

Excellent and fast service. Andrew was professional and provided very valuable insight and personalized service. Can't recommend Swartz highly enough. read more

Great electricians! They handled all my needs for a large house with a lot of different issues. Will use again.

They gave us a bill for $392.00 and left my house exactly as they found it. In other words they did nothing. They then sent an estimate for over $1000.00 To fiix the problem and told us to find the part ourselves. We have since had it fixed. They completely misdiagnosed it. It was a $20.00 part and took less then 5 min to fix. Call someone who knows what they are doing and save a lot of money. I hope they were just incompetent and not trying to rip us off. read more

Got job done fast.. showed up on time ! (A little early , he called first) Highly recommend

I called Swartz Electric to have a lamp replaced in one of the large lights in a warehouse that I rent. Bruce was able to come out quickly and get the light up and running very quickly; he was also a fun guy to talk to. While he was there he got me an estimate to swap out the old ballast style system to an LED system. The cost for that days work was less than I had expected and the estimate for the LED system was way less than I was expecting. I will definitely be calling Swartz Electric for anything that comes up in the future as well as the LED's. read more

We just purchased a home and had a lot of electrical work we wanted done to accommodate new appliances and better lighting. After researching the "top 5" electrical contractors in the area, I started making calls. Swartz Electric was immediately responsive and scheduled an estimator within days. The next closest couldn't get an estimate out for me in weeks. Others just never returned my calls but eventually emailed/texted. Swartz was obviously serious about getting my business. The estimator, Jorge was extremely professional and thorough. Quite honestly, the estimate took my breath away and seemed very high, but we had some extensive work to do including adding four new circuits to our breaker panel and installation of two towel warmers. The plan was for two electricians to come out for two days to do the work. On the first day of scheduled work, Swartz sent four (4) and knocked out the entire scope of work in a day! The team, led by Andrew was extremely professional. Brianna, Bruce, and Jason did phenomenal work and cleaned up very nicely afterward. We really couldn't be happier with how fast and efficient the work was completed. Would definitely use Swartz Electric again. read more

Okay here is the deal. After reading all of the reviews here I honestly wasn't sure if they were legit or not, because who in the heck has so many 5 star ratings!!!! I have to say they are legit, at least in my experience they were. I called on a weekend and the Electrician I talked to explained to me what he thought was the issue and how much it would cost for an emergency visit and that he personally would wait until a work day to get it looked at. So on monday since he had a cancellation he came out and tested everything in my electrical panel and including all of my outlets. It ended up being something that was wrong on the Utilities side but they won't come out and service it unless he did his checks first. He was done within the hour, courteous and informative. We couldn't have asked for anything else. So they are legit as it comes. Thanks Swartz Electric, you are on my list of one of the good guys!!! read more

We called Swartz Electric for a problem that happened Thanksgiving morning (of course, always a holiday snafu!). We had no microwave, no kitchen lights, no living room lights...ahhhh! Greg came out the following Tuesday (they could have come sooner, it was our schedules that did not allow). Greg could not have been more polite and considerate, even taking the time to put on booties before coming in. His work was very meticulous and methodical. Our problem just so happened to require another call. The second time a gentleman by the name of Robert came out. He was just as polite, considerate, meticulous, and methodical. Between them both they solved our problem and the price was reasonable. I won't hesitate to call them again for any electrical needs. read more

After horrible experiences with other, better known, electricians in town, I am so pleased to have found Swartz Electric, a company that still believes in business ethics and quality service at a reasonable price. Joshua arrived right on time and addressed the issues that needed fixing, all with practiced efficiency and without any nonsense attempts at upselling or other shady business you get from that other outfit. read more

I called Swartz Electric to add a few circuits to my basement. They provided a clear, concise quote and the price was reasonable and in the same ballpark as other quotes. I chose them based on three factors: 1. The informative and thorough explanation of the scope of work while preparing the quote 2. Their interest in doing the job correctly and to the letter of city code. 3. Their yelp rating. I was not disappointed. We just had the city inspection today and the work passed without any issue. Highly recommended. read more
