- About Meyers Electric
Who Are the Local Electricians Near Rice Lake, WI?
Meyers Electric is a licensed electrical contractor based at 900 Lindy St in Rice Lake, Wisconsin. Since 1986, our electricians have delivered residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural and public works electrical services, plus Cummins standby generators, to communities within about 50 miles of Rice Lake.
We work as residential and commercial electricians for homeowners, lake-cabin owners, farms, manufacturers, campgrounds and municipalities across Barron, Washburn, Sawyer, Rusk, Polk, Burnett, Chippewa, Dunn and Eau Claire counties. Every job follows one scope: assessment, a clear estimate, permits where required, installation to the National Electrical Code and Wisconsin’s SPS 316 electrical code, inspection and follow-up.
Northwestern Wisconsin is hard on electrical systems. Subzero winters, summer storms, long rural service runs and farm motors that start all day demand work built for local conditions. The team that quotes your job is the team that stands behind it.
Wisconsin-credentialed electricians and a fully insured crew.
Code-compliant work, tested before we leave.

We have a Cummins emergency generator that's been in service for 12 years and twice over the past year has required on site repairs. My local electrician recommended contacting Meyers, and when I did they promptly responded in were at our home the next day. (We're over an hour from Rice Lake....) Austin is the technician that showed up to do the work, and in both cases he quickly discovered the issues and replaced failed parts to get us up and running again. On the second call, he suggested he could take the broken part to a local welder to repair, rather than pay over $1000 for a replacement component from Cummins. It took a few days to get that repair done, but I can only imagine what the bill would have been if I would called our Cummins service from Duluth! Meyers is a class act, and I very much appreciate Jake and Austin and the rest of the Meyers Electric crew.Posted on Google![]()

Wow, I had three small electrical projects I wanted quotes for. They grouped them together in one quote the first time, then three weeks later they sent a refined quote separating parts and labor. All I wanted was quotes for the three projects but the office manager refused to pass on the message and instead wanted me to again speak with someone from the field, which I have already done. She repeatedly said it was too complicated... one project was to replace two dimmer switches, the other project is to replace two bathroom exhaust fans, the third is to run electricity down a hill to have an outlet 30 yards from the home. Yeah, I guess they are too complicated.
- FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Electricians
What areas do Meyers Electric's electricians serve?
Do you offer 24/7 emergency electrical service?
How much does an electrician cost in Wisconsin?
Electrician cost depends on the job’s scope, materials, labor time, permits and the condition of your existing wiring. Replacing an outlet and upgrading a service panel are very different projects. Meyers Electric reviews your property and gives you a free estimate before work starts. See our guide to residential electrical work costs.
Can a homeowner do electrical work in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin law (Wis. Stat. § 101.862) lets an owner-occupant do electrical work in their own single-family home without a license, but local permit and inspection rules still apply. Service, panel and generator work carries real fire and shock risk. For that work, hire a licensed electrician who pulls the permit and passes inspection.
How do I choose a licensed electrician near me?
Choose an electrician who holds a Wisconsin credential from the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS), carries insurance, pulls permits and gives you a clear estimate before work begins. Ask how long they’ve served your area. Our guide on how to hire a residential electrician covers the questions to ask.
Do you handle commercial, farm and municipal electrical projects?
Yes. Besides homes, Meyers Electric wires and maintains offices, retail stores, manufacturing plants, dairy and livestock operations, campgrounds, water and wastewater facilities and municipal buildings. We also install Cummins standby power for each of these sectors, sized to the loads that can’t stop.
