GOOGLEOur Story
Loch Monster started in plumbing. One truck. One goal: do the kind of work we'd want done in our own homes. Over the years, customers kept asking the same thing: "Do you guys do electrical too?" Now we do.
Loch Monster Electric brings the same mindset to wiring — honest pricing, respectful service, and a crew that shows up when they say they will. Different trade. Same commitment to doing the job right.

READ MOREYour panel is trying to tell you something. If breakers trip regularly, your lights dim when big appliances kick on, you have a fuse box instead of breakers, or you are adding major loads like an EV charger or HVAC system, it is time to have it looked at. Loch Monster Electric does a free site visit and gives you a straight answer on what your home actually needs.
Yes. If you are smelling burning, seeing sparks, or have lost power to part of your home, that is not a wait-until-Monday situation. We offer 24/7 emergency electrical service in the Twin Cities metro. Call 763-292-1191 and we will get someone out to you.
We check your panel, wiring, grounding, GFCI and AFCI protection, outlets, and any visible code concerns. Pre-sale inspections are common, but homeowners also book these after buying an older home or before a big renovation. You get a written report you can actually read, not a list of codes nobody understands.
Yes, and we handle everything from start to finish. That means pulling the permit, running the dedicated 240V circuit, installing the Level 2 charger, and coordinating the city inspection. Most installs are done in a day. We work with all major charger brands and will make sure your panel can handle the load before we start.
We work on a Time and Materials basis. That means you pay for the actual time spent and the actual parts used, with no inflated flat-rate pricing built around worst-case scenarios. We will walk you through the scope before we start, and there are no surprise line items at the end.
