Allen Thomas Electric says on its website that it has been in business for 29 years and that it can bring older Connecticut wiring up to present code. The state registry lists Connecticut electrician license ELC.0181418-E1 as active, held by Allen T Scheidel. A 2026 customer said a new wall outlet was installed quickly and neatly, with no wires showing, at a very reasonable price, and that Todd was quick with communication. In a 2025 review, a customer said the worker who replaced an old exhaust fan in a cramped half bath was prompt, precise and efficient, and gave advice on their next project, a cathedral ceiling fan installation. A 2024 customer said Todd came out for outdoor electrical work and that his estimates were fair and dead on when the work was finished. A customer writing in 2024 said Allen Thomas installed a whole-house generator for them over 10 years ago, then installed an electric vehicle charger that required an upgrade in the electrical service. That 2024 customer said the electricians worked quickly and carefully and cleaned up after themselves. A 2023 customer said a whole-house generator installation had several moving parts and that the company coordinated everything.
Great electrical work. We needed a new wall outlet, and it was installed quickly and neatly, with no wires showing, at a very reasonable price. Todd was quick with communication, and Jose did an expert job.
I recommend Allen Electric because the gentleman who replaced an old exhaust fan in our cramped half bath was a true professional - prompt, precise and efficient, well deserving of a 5 star rating He also provided helpful advice for our next project, a cathedral ceiling fan installation, so we will engage this firm again
Todd from Allen Thomas Electric came out to some outdoor electrical work for us and it was a terrific experience. He was very up front with his recommendations and his estimates were both fair and dead on when the work was finished. It’s nice to have someone you can hire that is actually looking out for your best interests, I’ll be reaching out to them again whenever I need electric work done.
Allen Thomas has very conscientious and experienced electricians. I had Allen Thomas install my whole house generator over 10 years ago, and so I knew I wanted to use him again to install my Electric Vehicle charger -- which required an upgrade in my electrical service. The electricians worked quickly and carefully, and cleaned up after themselves. Top notch service!
I just had a whole house generator installed by Allen Thomas Electric. The entire experience was outstanding. There are several moving parts and they did an amazing job, coordinating everything flawlessly. We have used Allen for many different electrical needs and have had a premium experience each and every time. I highly recommend them.
