OUR story
For nearly 70 years, Freetly Electric has been helping homeowners, businesses, and agricultural operations throughout west-central Minnesota stay powered, comfortable, and productive. What began as a small local business has grown into a trusted electrical and HVAC contractor built on strong relationships, dependable service, and a commitment to doing the job right.
Founded by Harold Freetly in 1956, the company was built on a simple promise: to provide honest service, quality workmanship, and to treat every customer like a neighbor. That commitment continued under the leadership of Tom Freetly, who spent decades growing the business and building the trusted reputation Freetly Electric is known for today.
Today, that legacy continues under local owner Andrew Meyer, who is proud to carry those same values forward alongside a team of experienced electricians and HVAC professionals dedicated to serving the communities they call home.
Whether you’re building a new home, remodeling your kitchen, upgrading your heating and cooling system, wiring a commercial facility, or keeping your farm operating efficiently, you can count on knowledgeable professionals who take pride in doing the job right.
