A quote service, not an electrician
We connect Fort Collins-area homeowners with independent local electrical contractors for free, no-obligation quotes. The contractor you choose quotes, permits, contracts and does the work directly with you.
Electrician Fort Collins is not an electrical contractor. We do not perform, plan or supervise electrical work, and we hold no electrical license or contractor registration. In Colorado, electrical work for hire is done by licensed electricians working for a registered electrical contractor (C.R.S. 12-115).
The five steps
Describe your project
Fill in the short quote form with your name, phone, ZIP code and the type of work: a panel upgrade, EV charger, outlets, lighting or a repair. Add your home's age or panel size if you know it. It takes about a minute and costs nothing.
Your request goes to local contractors
Your request is shared with independent electrical contractors who serve your part of Fort Collins or northern Colorado. We usually reply the same day. The contractors, not Electrician Fort Collins, decide whether the job fits their business.
Talk to contractors and get written quotes
Contractors may call to ask questions or arrange a visit, since many electrical jobs cannot be priced without seeing the panel. Ask each one for a written quote with the scope, the permit and whether utility service-upgrade costs are included.
Verify before you hire
Confirm the contractor's Colorado electrical contractor registration and its master electrician's license with the DORA license lookup, confirm City registration inside Fort Collins, and ask for proof of insurance.
Hire directly, or not at all
If you choose a contractor, you contract with them directly. They pull the permit, schedule City or town inspections and do the work. There is no obligation to hire anyone.
What happens with permits
Most new wiring, panel, service, EV-charger and circuit work in Fort Collins needs a City of Fort Collins electrical permit and inspection. A licensed master electrician working for a registered contractor normally pulls the permit, and the City's inspection stages include underground, rough, energize and final. Outside the city, the permit office depends on the town: see the service areas page for Loveland, Windsor, Wellington and Timnath. This is general information, not legal advice.
Tips for comparing quotes
- Compare the written scope, not only the total.
- Ask whether drywall patching, the permit and utility service-upgrade costs are included.
- Ask whether your project may qualify for an Efficiency Works incentive, and check efficiencyworks.org before you sign.
