Shane Sonberg
We have used Coffin Electric for several projects. From hanging lights on our screen porch, changing out all the smoke detectors in our house, installing new outlets outdoors, and so on. They are always quick to respond, do a professional job, clean up after they get done working, and offer a fair price for their service. I would highly recommend them for any electrical project you may have.

Coffin was very professional and quick to get my electrical needs taken care of. Pricing was cheaper than competitors without compromising quality. They let me know what I needed without trying to sell me anything I didn't need. I'll be using Coffin whenever I need electrical work done in the future.

Perfect. Both service people were great and very good representatives of your company. Even did a great clean up when work was done and even brought our trash bin up to the garage when it was snowing. I do not say perfect very often. Jim
