Brian

“Zimmerman Electric Indy has been great to work with. Within two hours of first calling they were on site and provided the estimate. The team went above and beyond what was certainly a challenging installation. I am very impressed and will absolutely recommend them to anyone needing electrical services.”

Paul Linn

“Zimmerman electric Indy is fast and efficient. I had messaged them a few days ago and wanted a price to install a Tesla wall charger at my house. He gave me a quote the same day and was able to install it before I brought the vehicle home. They did great work and cleaned up any mess they created after the work was done. They did a great job and would highly recommend them for all your electrical needs.”
