About
Excel Electric Inc. has delivered commercial and industrial electrical installations valued in the millions of dollars for over 40 years, operating out of Grand Rapids-area offices in Grandville and Holland, MI, plus a Colorado location in Golden — giving multi-state facility managers a single licensed, bonded contractor for complex, geographically dispersed projects. Founded in 1983, the non-union shop employs 100-plus full-time electricians and keeps ownership directly accessible for day-to-day project decisions, a meaningful differentiator for facility managers who need fast answers on scope changes or budget pivots. Excel serves the full commercial and industrial project lifecycle: design/build, specification and bid, time-and-material service, and owner/engineer budget pricing — making them adaptable whether a property manager is planning a full-building power distribution upgrade or responding to an unplanned switchgear failure. Their long-term client roster includes Grand Valley State University, MillerKnoll (Herman Miller), Frederik Meijer Botanical Gardens, and multiple public school districts, reflecting deep competency in institutional, education, and light-industrial electrical systems — panelboard replacements, lighting retrofits, site power distribution, and low-voltage infrastructure. Excel also brings a niche capability in wood-pole and utility pole integrity testing using pole tomography technology, useful for campus and multi-building facility managers assessing aging site electrical infrastructure. For property managers overseeing office buildings, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, or institutional campuses in West Michigan or Colorado's Front Range, Excel Electric combines the scale of a 100-person contractor with owner-accessible project management — reducing the coordination friction common with larger regional firms. Their 40-plus-year track record with repeat clients signals reliable execution on phased, occupied-facility work where downtime and safety compliance are non-negotiable.
