We had an over-the-range microwave installed by Frye Electric. The employees we dealt with were all very polite, knowledgeable, and the workmanship was superb. We found the cost to be very reasonable. We were also given a free estimate before having the work done. We are extremely pleased and highly recommend this company.Robert & Doris B Indianapolis, IN

Our home recently had some "electrical gremlins" that soon culminated in loss of our HVAC and water heater along with some other items on a Friday. Woke up Saturday with no heat and no hot water. An emergency call went out to Frye and Kenny soon was at our home within an hour. He quickly diagnosed the problem and had us back up and running by noon. He was kind, professional, and very helpful in showing us the issues and providing evidences to work with our builder on cause of the issue. I even heard that the owner of the company came out for a quick visit to review the potential solution. How awesome is that. So if you have any electrical issues the Robertson family will certainly recommend you give Frye Electric a call.Alex and Karen R. Avon, IN
