Klein Electric began in 1969 as a two-person shop in Roger and Darlene Klein's garage and grew into a St. Cloud electrical contractor that the family ran for two generations. The company says it is now moving to new ownership. It is licensed, bonded and insured and gives a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
For homeowners, Klein handles electrical remodels and installations, panel service and upgrades, troubleshooting and repair, lighting and fixtures, switches and outlets, smoke detectors, electric heat, hot tubs, spas and pools, and EV charging stations. It also does commercial and industrial work, and estimates are free.
