I really appreciate your guy coming here to take care of my furnace. He was kind, helpful, and took care of the problem in a short amount of time. I would recommend your services to any. Thank you so much!

We had to replace an outdated heating system. Jordan, Travis and Dillion were awesome. Great customer service. They also helped us get a rebate through our power company. Highly recommended.

Competent. Priced fairly. Professional. Can't say enough good about these guys.

Jordan and crew fixed my mini-split leak quickly and got me running again before summer hits. They were professional and communicated well. Their pricing was very competitive - nearly 1/3 the cost that one of their competitors quoted me for the same repair. Would definitely call them back for future work!

Minuteman Services are very efficient, explained what the job entailed and completed it well. Appreciated timely service, knowledge and efficiency!

Called on a late Saturday and got an immediate response from Shane. He helped me trouble shoot and saved me big money, fixed our eletrical problem. Cannot say thank you enough!!!

Our furnace went out, and Travis and the team were able to quickly get over and give us an estimate on a repair and a replacement. (As a courtesy, they even have a lock box with space heaters if you need to get through a night or two without heat.) We ended up not only replacing the furnace, but adding central air as well. They were able to get it done in 2 days, and the system is super quiet and distributes the heat and A/C really nicely. They even added an outlet to the outside of the house, which is great because we didn't have any before! There was a small issue about where the furnace was venting out. We have an enclosed deck, and it was just venting out onto the deck. Despite not being in the bid, they routed the vent out to the side so that we wouldn't be breathing in any more exhaust/CO! However, it didn't look as clean as it could be the first time they did it, and we had some suggestions to make it look better that Travis fully supported and said that they would take care of (even though it was like an additional project in the first place). They redid it with a good attitude, and it looks really clean now! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Minuteman! Even got this nice red hoodie as an appreciation gift 😀

Excellent Service Top Notch Service Jason And Dillon And Crew Very Experienced A Jop Well Done Thank You All So Very Much. Brian Ruth Kidder

We had Minuteman retrofit our main ductwork to make the air distribution more efficient and eliminate "hot spots." The crew was professional and efficient. I'm very pleased with their work. I recommend them without reservation!

You guys were great. Best customer service I've had in a while always returned your calls and worked with you as far as financing and did a great job in a timely manner would 100% recommend them.

Minuteman lives up to their name! Called before they showed up, arrived on time and provided an same-day estimate for a furnace replacement. Again, called and showed up on time on the day of the replacement, and finished within the promised time. Talked through the operation/maintenance of the new unit and maintenance plans and made sure all questions were answered. ...and the price could not be beat (less than half of some others!) I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

Quick to respond and very reasonable and thorough. I've had them do a few things and they've done it with great quality.

My furnace went out while it was -5° outside and Minuteman was able to be there quickly and get it running fast! Other companies that have looked at my furnace in the past have said it’s past its life expectancy and that I need replace it, but Minuteman took the time to make repairs and explain proper maintenance to try to get more life out of my older furnace! They never once mentioned a replacement.

This company provided incredible service. They came to our home quickly to inspect our furance, which in the end did need replaced. The employee who came to our home was so helpful and informative with each step of the process. The next day, employees came to install the new furnace and worked diligently and thoroughly. I highly recommend this company to anyone needing furance/HVAC needs. I will definitely be a return customer.

Travis was excellent in finding out what was wrong with a furnace he was checking out for me! I would use Minuteman anytime! They are great people.

My daughter’s cadet heater stopped working after smoking and they came same day to diagnose and replace the unit. Thank you for caring for our family in a timely manner!

Jason and Trevor were very friendly and knowledgeable in replacing our furnace. Highly recommended.

Minuteman Services go the extra mile to do all they can to help! Jarrod and Travis were fantastic! They were very efficient and quick to come out to fix the problem. I highly recommend these guys. They know what they're doing. Thank you!

What an amazing team of people! They work so hard to take care of their clients. They got my furnace replaced quickly so that I could keep myself and my dogs warm in the middle winter. Thank you!

The guys at Minute Man are the best. Very professional and knowledgeable I highly recommend them.

I was tight for time and they scheduled me in. Huge help. And the tech they sent was professional, personable and quick. These folks get the nod for all HVAC related work in the future.

Our whole family in the area uses Minuteman Services! From electrical work to HVAC work. We just had them install two brand new heating systems on Dec 12 & 13th 2024. The AC systems will be installed in the spring. Very professional and willing to answer all my questions. Their workers were very respectful of the house when they did the install putting down floor protectant and cleaning up everything.

I was very pleased with the thorough evaluation and repair that Travis provided. In the future, I will contact your company and request Travis. Thank you!

They were very helpful, explained the wiring problems and went above and beyond in getting the parts we needed. They were polite, respectful of our home, and diligently cleaned up after their work. I appreciated very all their hard work.

They did an excellent job in diagnosing and repairing the two issues we had. They were courteous and tidy during their visit. I would definately use them again.

Timely and professional. Stayed to get the job done during the holidays. Would recommend.

All the guys at minute man services did a great job at our place. we were impressed with thier professional job they did for us. They all were courteous and punctual. They cleaned up too!! I would recommend then highly. Thank you again.

They service anything from small jobs to big jobs. Extremely hard to find a company that will do a small electrical job. These guys do it all. Fast,friendly service for a reasonable price. Highly recommend this company for your electrical needs and service 👏.

I was having an issue with a breaker and these folks did a great job fixing it. Ted pinpointed the problem and Shane and crew came out and fixed it. I highly recommend this company!

We were very impressed in the timely manner that Minuteman serviced our furnace! They were very helpful and answered all of our questions. We will be calling them again!

Great service, did exactly what they said they would do and got the new furnace installed.

Ted did some electrical work for us, was super responsive on the phone and helped me trouble shoot multiple issues that were 100% my ignorance not any fault of the work he did. He also made some thoughtful suggestions to improve the ideas we had. Update Dec 2024: I needed electrical work done on a new home after moving and Minuteman came through again! They were on time, had good ideas to help me get all the outlets i needed and were diligent about making sure I had everything done to my satisfaction. Great crew. Great service.

These guys always do great work and respond right away. Highly recommend for all HVAC needs

Great company. Travis communicated well, showed up when he said he would, offered a timely appointment and options to proactively care for my equipment going forward. That was a painless service call- broken heater experience! Thank you.

Minuteman's electricians are awesome. I needed help with some breakers that were constantly flipping. They were able to quickly identify the issue and gave me several options on what to do. Their bid was in range of what I would expect that kind of repair to take. They were very professional, on time, and patient with all my questions so I can be a better informed homeowner. 5/5. I highly recommend them!

Fast. Good work. Great prices. They are great to work with. Highly recommend

This Crew did an amazing job that came through and did what they needed to do showed me after what they did and cleaned up everything after themselves and sat and explained and had asked us if we had any questions or if we need anything

Justin and Jarod ROCK!!...AND TRAVIS 😉 Sorry Travis, for some reason I keep mistaking you for a Justin. Travis, ROCKS!!! It is so good to have our furnace up and running again. Great work and fair price. Will be wanting a complete furnace upgrade through Minuteman. Cannot say enough positive things about this company.

Jarrod was the absolute best. He came and fixed our issue with our heat. He was fast and he did an amazing just. 10/10 service. Ask for Jarrod he did the best service and was professional.

Very responsive and gave me great customer service! They were able to get out there the same day and fix my furnace. Highly recommend 👍

We used Minuteman Services to do an annual service on the HVAC system in our office. They were very easy to work with and did a great job. Their fees were not exorbitant either! They didn't waste time, explained things to me and offered to set up a maintenance plan for winter and summer. I would highly recommend them for both home and office HVAC needs.

Minuteman was great. Very responsive and flexible, timely delivery, made the whole swap-out a complete breeze. Highly recommend.

My main reason for replacing my old HVAC system is to save money on my high electrical bill. Minute Man Service did an outstanding job replacing my 20 year old HVAC system and replaced it with a more efficient HVAC system that includes a 2 stage a/c & thermostat. Jarrod Mount was the tech who removed the old system and installed the new system. Jarrod was also the person who came to my house and submitted the bid I could not reject because of the very reasonable price. I therefore give Minuteman Services my highest recommendation.

This is best I've worked with. Affordable, knowledgeable, friendly and professional! I will definitely call on them again. Thank you guys.

Ted and his crew came on time, established their plan of action, ran wiring through the crawlspace to exterior conduit and heat cables on the roof, ensured they left no trash or tracks in spite of the rain and carefully explained how to use the system before they left. A superb job by a group of professionals!

Great service. Friendly, detail oriented and very professional. A great company for your electrical needs. I will use this company again and again.

I had the best experience with Jarrod, Shane and the Minuteman Services crew. They were honest, reliable & professional to work with. They installed a cadet heater, sub panel, washer & dryer plugs as well as interior and exterior lights in our Shed. They even helped me choose the fixtures which I appreciated! They completed the entire job within one day making sure they did not interrupt our renters at our Cabin which was very thoughtful. Can't wait to work with them again!

Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.

Travis was very polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. He explained Contracts for service and we were pleased with no hidden costs. We’re confident we’ll get what we pay for.

Minuteman services was amazing! They provided a quote for my furnace replacement, answered all of my questions, and provided wonderful communication. The day they installed my new furnace, they were very kind and did a great job. If you need a new furnace, this is the service to use! Thank you Minuteman Services!

My husband and I just opened a new business, and needed some last minute electrical work done before we could open. Minute Man was able to get there very quickly and help us with what we needed for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend them!

We used them for an electrical problem in a mobile home. They were very quick on finding the problem and getting it fixed. Price was very fair! Highly recommend them!

Minuteman services did a fantastic job installing the electrical in our basement. They were quick to respond and schedule us. The communication was great as well during the install. We were never left wondering if or when something would be done. They gave clear timelines and stuck to them. The company was very honest and reasonable.

Ted and Shane did excellent work upsizing my electrical panel and connecting the heat tape for my gutters. They are both easy to talk to and very professional. I highly recommend their work to anyone.

Always an excellent job. These guys are professionals and know what they are doing. And we can always count on them.

Great experience with this company. First of all honesty and integrity, I appreciated his friendliness, communication, he was on time, even had it done before he thought it would be. Definitely would recommend them. Local Family owned and operated was also a plus for me. Sitting here in my nice cool house on a hot day! Thanks MinuteMan Services!

My air conditioner quit working. Called Minuteman Services the next morning and they showed up by noon and had the issue resolved within the hour. Great customer service, and quick response time.

These guys are amazing, excellent technicians and fair prices. you guys rock!!!

Completely recommend Minuteman Services. We have had them repair our AC unit at a much more reasonable price than competitors. Most recently they have done annual maintenance on our AC unit and furnace. The techs and the owners are honest, prompt, courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable and won’t try to sell you unnecessary services. I will call them every time for our HVAC needs.

Jarrod and his team are amazing and very professional and transparent. Highly recommended for all your service needs!!

Minutemen services was fantastic to work with! We had to replace our furnace and our ac. They were quick and efficient and definitely had a much more reasonable price than some other companies that are around town. Highly recommend them to anyone.

Always makes our tenants a priority and is very friendly and knowledgeable. These guy are my go to for any HVAC or Electrical needs!

Ted and his team did an excellent job in installing the electrical wirings and connection for my heat tape. I highly recommend him.

Friendly. On-time. Work was done right. Reasonable prices. Can't go wrong with the locally owned Minutemen!

During the last repair of our AC unit, we spoke with Minuteman about the eventual replacement of our AC unit. Unfortunately, that happened sooner rather than later (no fault of Minute Service) and they were able to give us an accurate quote, without having to come back, because they had taken some detailed notes and photos the previous service visit. They provided a fair and reasonable quote and even offered to help provide some temporary measures to ensure we had some relief from the hottest temps of the summer so far. Great work, they protected the area they were working from damage and kept me informed of the status. Highly recommend Minuteman Service for any of your HVAC needs

We used Minuteman to service our furnace and to fix a few electrical issues we had to address before selling. Communication and scheduling were great, I was able to get someone to my home within the same week. I felt they were very knowledgeable and efficient; I also feel that I paid a fair price for the service. I would highly recommend for any electrical or HVAC needs.

I can not say enough positive things about this service! Travis was extremely professional- always kept us informed on status via a quick text update, the price was extremely reasonable and the service was much quicker than we expected during a very busy season! Give them a call- you won’t regret it!

Travis was AMAZING. Showed up early, was so kind, responsive, and taught as he went. His prices were so fair! You have a customer for life!

I had a fire at my house due to my AC and needed electrical. I was recommended Minuteman Services by a co-worker. I am so glad she did. Jarrod got someone out to get me a quote same day. When I was ready for the repairs, I called Ted and he set me up the next day. Everyone we have come in contact with has been very nice and understanding. Their prices are amazing too. I will be using Minuteman Services for all my HVAC and electrical needs from now on.

Amazing service, outstanding work by Travis. Affordable prices. I’ll be using them again in the near future

Super friendly, easy to work with. They were in and out. Great communication

Jordan and Aiden were amazing. The customer service was exceptional and they definitely went the extra mile for me and my business! I Highly recommend them!

Great Service and great job on all their jobs they did for us!! I recommend them highly!!

I am a Senior so having a company like Minute Man do repairs & installations with such professionalism & caring was an extremely positive experience. Dylan, Devon & Travis are an outstanding team of workers. When they left I had no questions because they explained & went over everything. As well as the clean up, it was as if no one had been here. Thank you!

Travis was quick to respond to our request for assistance in setting up a new mini-split system. The team was very good to work with and their installation was clean and quick. They were able to finish in 3 days after projecting 4 days originally. They were very good to communicate alterations that were necessary and include us in the decision. The team was considerate of our schedule and made sure we were pleased with the end product, which we are.

Ted was great when I called to schedule and followed up the day of service. Shane called to let me know he was on the way and did a great job. He even cleaned up behind himself, the only way you could tell he was there, was the excellent job done. All around great experience and fair price. Thank you so much.

I filled out a request online and they contacted me that same day. They showed up the next day to do a bid and started the job the following business day! They did a great job, were affordable, professional and courteous! I would highly recommend Minuteman Services for your electrical work!

We had minute man services replace our furnace, I am very pleased with their work! Definitely will be recommending to family/friends.

I needed help with my furnace in a hurry and had no idea who to trust. A friend recommended Minute Man and they were great! Timely, professional, quality service for a good price. I highly recommend them to others!

We had Minuteman do some electrical work for us recently, running new ethernet cable for security cameras. Shayne was very responsive, prompt, friendly, and did a great job. Definitely recommend them!

Minuteman came out to replace our heaters, put in new ventilation fans, and install a heating/AC unit. They were very respectful, friendly, and even took time to play fetch with our dog. They were alway here when they said they would be, and called each time to let us know they were on their way. They took care to treat our home like their own. They took precautions to keep things clean, and left the floors and things as clean or cleaner than when they got here. Can not recommend them enough!!!

Contacted me back very quickly after waiting over a year for a previous company to show up. They were quick and professional. Awesome work. Jordan and devyn did amazing

Most Common Electrical Wiring Questions
Electrical wiring is critical to the safety and function of your home or business. Poor or outdated wiring increases the risk of fire, power loss, or damaged equipment. Minuteman Services installs and repairs wiring systems that follow current safety standards and local code.
There are several signs that indicate your house may need new electrical wiring. Flickering lights, frequent circuit breaker trips, warm or discolored outlets, and buzzing sounds from walls are common warning signs. Older homes with aluminum wiring or knob and tube wiring often require full or partial rewiring. Minuteman Services performs wiring inspections to identify unsafe connections, overloaded circuits, or outdated systems. We test voltage, review breaker performance, and inspect behind outlets for signs of heat or deterioration. If we find a safety concern, we explain your options and give you a clear scope of work. Proper wiring protects your home from power failure and fire risks.
Our electricians replace unsafe wiring using copper conductors sized to handle today’s electrical loads. We also install modern breakers, grounded outlets, and arc fault protection when needed. Every project is done to current code and inspected for compliance. This ensures long term safety and helps increase property value. Minuteman Services also upgrades electrical panels to support rewiring when capacity is limited. Our team creates clean, labeled installations that are easy to maintain over time. You receive professional work backed by a licensed Idaho Falls electrical contractor.
We make the process simple by starting with a full system check. We locate all problem areas, explain the causes, and present a clear plan to resolve them. You get honest answers and fast scheduling. Our team works efficiently and keeps the site clean from start to finish. If your house shows signs of electrical wear, it is important to act early. Minuteman Services gives you expert guidance and safe, reliable results.
Yes, partial rewiring is possible and often the best solution when only part of the system is outdated or damaged. Minuteman Services offers partial rewiring for specific rooms, circuits, or areas with known problems. Common areas for partial rewiring include kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and additions. We begin with a wiring inspection and load calculation to check if other areas of your home are still safe and functional. If the remaining wiring meets code and is in good condition, we isolate and rewire only the affected sections. This saves time and cost while still improving safety. We also make sure all new and existing wiring connects correctly at the panel.
Every partial rewiring project is permitted, inspected, and documented for code compliance. Our electricians mark new circuits, install proper breakers, and verify each outlet, switch, and fixture. We use copper wire and industry standard connections to prevent future overheating or voltage drops. We also install GFCI and AFCI protection where required by code. The result is a safer, more reliable circuit that blends with the rest of your system. You get improved performance without a full home rewiring project. Our team keeps the process focused and efficient.
Minuteman Services provides honest recommendations based on inspection results. We never push unnecessary work and only rewire what is needed. If future upgrades are required, we help you plan them in stages. Our goal is to deliver safe electrical service that fits your needs and budget. Partial rewiring is often the best first step toward modernizing your electrical system. Let us help you fix known issues and extend the life of your system with clean, code compliant work.
Yes, Minuteman Services provides emergency electrical repair for wiring issues that affect safety or system operation. If you smell burning, hear buzzing, or lose power to part of your home, contact our team immediately. Our electricians are trained to find and fix wiring faults fast, reducing the risk of fire or equipment damage.

Our licensed electricians follow safety protocols and fix problems the right way. Do not risk injury or damage by ignoring warning signs. Call our team for professional emergency service and dependable results. We are ready to help anytime you need us.
Most modern home electrical systems use copper wire with plastic insulation, rated for the expected amperage of each circuit. Copper wire offers excellent conductivity, durability, and flexibility, making it the preferred choice for residential wiring. Minuteman Services installs copper wiring in all electrical upgrades and new installations. We size each wire correctly based on the load and distance of the run. Common gauges include 14 AWG for lighting and outlets, 12 AWG for kitchen and bathroom circuits, and 10 AWG or larger for appliances and HVAC systems. We never use undersized wire or shortcuts that can compromise performance or safety. Proper wire selection ensures that each circuit operates efficiently and meets code.
In some older homes, aluminum wiring may still be in use. Aluminum is less conductive than copper and is prone to loosening over time, which can cause overheating or fire risk. Our electricians check for signs of aluminum wiring and recommend replacement or safe connection methods. We also avoid using mixed metal connections, which can corrode and fail. Copper to copper connections provide a longer lasting and safer result. We use high quality wire with clear labeling and insulation rated for indoor or outdoor use as needed. Our installations are clean, labeled, and built to support long term use.
Minuteman Services uses copper wiring because it gives our customers the most dependable performance. We stay up to date on code changes and material standards to ensure every job meets current requirements. Our team works with homeowners to plan safe, efficient wiring systems that fit each property. Proper wiring supports your lights, appliances, HVAC system, and electronics without issues. Let us upgrade your home using quality materials and professional installation. Safe wiring starts with the right wire, and we always use the best.
Bad electrical wiring can cause several clear warning signs. Flickering or dimming lights, buzzing outlets, and frequent tripped breakers all point to wiring problems. Outlets that are warm to the touch, smell like burning, or have visible scorch marks should never be ignored. You may also hear crackling sounds in your walls or notice inconsistent power to appliances. These symptoms often mean that wires are loose, damaged, or overloaded. Minuteman Services offers inspections to identify the cause of these issues and provide safe, fast solutions. We look for worn insulation, exposed copper, faulty connections, and outdated materials.
Our electricians perform a full system review to check all circuits, outlets, and the electrical panel. We use voltage testers, thermal imaging, and physical inspection to uncover hidden problems. Many homes in Idaho Falls still have original wiring that no longer meets current safety code. This creates a higher risk of shorts, arcing, and electrical fire. Minuteman Services replaces faulty wiring using modern copper wire and secure terminations. We also add new circuits to balance loads and reduce stress on older wires. A clean, modern electrical system keeps your home safe and your equipment running smoothly.
Ignoring early signs of bad wiring can lead to system failure, property damage, or personal injury. That is why Minuteman Services encourages homeowners to schedule a professional inspection at the first sign of trouble. We provide honest assessments and do not upsell what you do not need. If your system is safe, we will confirm that and offer tips for future care. If we find risks, we give you clear steps to correct the issue with pricing and timelines. Our work is always done to code with full testing and documentation. Trust our team to help you catch problems early and fix them the right way.
Electrical wiring should be inspected at least every 10 years for standard homes and every 5 years for rental properties or older buildings. Inspections help prevent issues caused by wear, weather, or added electrical load. Minuteman Services recommends scheduling an inspection after any major renovation, appliance upgrade, or if you experience symptoms of faulty wiring. Regular checks can catch loose connections, signs of corrosion, or circuits operating close to their limit. Inspections are especially important in homes built before 1990 that may still have outdated wire types or panels. Our licensed electricians provide detailed evaluations using professional tools and code checklists. You get a full overview of your system and clear recommendations for next steps.
During an inspection, we look at your service panel, breakers, wiring gauge, and the condition of insulation. We check for overheating, wire exposure, and safe routing of all conductors. If we find hazards or code violations, we mark them and explain what needs to be done. Some problems can be solved with simple fixes while others may require rewiring. Every issue is explained in plain language, and we make sure you understand your options. If your wiring is in good shape, we confirm that and help you plan future maintenance. You get accurate information and expert support at every step.
Minuteman Services makes inspections easy to schedule and stress free to complete. We work around your availability and keep the process clean and organized. After the visit, we give you a written summary of findings and suggested improvements. You can trust that your home is safe and that your system is ready for daily use. With regular inspections, you avoid costly emergencies and extend the life of your wiring. Let our Idaho Falls team keep your electrical system up to date and operating safely.
A circuit upgrade typically involves adding new lines, breakers, or outlets to support more power in specific areas. Full rewiring means replacing most or all of the electrical wiring in your home or building. Minuteman Services helps you decide which is needed based on your system condition and power usage. If only one part of your home has issues or overload, a targeted upgrade is usually enough. But if the entire system is old, unsafe, or overloaded, full rewiring is often the better long term solution. Our team inspects each part of the system before recommending the right approach. You get clear answers with safety and performance as the top priority.
Upgrading a circuit may involve running new wire, installing a dedicated breaker, and replacing outlets or switches. This is common when adding appliances, building a workshop, or remodeling a kitchen. The rest of the system may stay untouched if it is still safe and compliant. Rewiring replaces all old wire, usually in homes built decades ago with outdated materials like aluminum or cloth insulation. We run new lines, upgrade the service panel, and install grounded outlets throughout. Every connection is tested and labeled to create a safer, more reliable system.
Minuteman Services explains the benefits and limitations of both options so you can make the best choice. Circuit upgrades cost less and require less time, but may not solve deeper system problems. Full rewiring improves safety across the home and brings your system up to modern code. We provide clear estimates for both options and help you plan based on your timeline and budget. You can trust our licensed electricians to give you honest advice and do the work the right way. Your safety and long term satisfaction are always our goal.
Several types of electrical problems require fast response to prevent damage or danger. Power loss to part of your home, burning smells, sparking outlets, and breakers that will not reset are serious warning signs. If you see smoke, hear buzzing from the panel, or experience electric shock, call Minuteman Services immediately. These issues may point to damaged wiring, overloaded circuits, or loose connections inside walls. Our emergency electricians find the problem quickly and perform safe repairs.
