Our companies

Three specialists under one name

Each company runs its own crews, its own equipment, and its own book of business. What they share is the ownership, the standard, and the ability to hand a job to whichever of the three should actually be doing it.

Electrical contracting

Miller Electrical

Roots to 1978

Residential, commercial, and industrial electrical for the Twin Cities east metro.

Miller Electrical is the company most people mean when they say Miller. Licensed electricians handling everything from a dead outlet to a full commercial fit-out, run out of the Hastings shop. It is also a Generac Authorized Dealer, so standby generators get sized, installed, and serviced by the same people.

  • Service, repair, and troubleshooting
  • Panel upgrades and EV charger installs
  • Standby generators (Generac Authorized Dealer)
  • Commercial, industrial, and custom-home wiring
