The key question is would I have TE&L bid another project for me? The answer is no. My project is/was a large addition to an existing home. Most of the work was new systems/wiring and minor renovations to old wire. The project also included coordination with Austin Energy and entirely new service point.
Things that were good:
1. their bid was complete and they didn't nickel/dime me on minor changes and corrections to the scope.
2. the wiring work (in particular) was clean and organized. the installers take pride in the work.
3. the cost/bid amount was within my budget and what I was expecting to pay.
4. Matt has good relationships at Austin Energy, which were very helpful in getting our service switched despite some confusion.
5. the TE&L team was able to keep our power on by using temporary runs from the service, which was very helpful at times.
Things that were bad:
1. This contractor cost me at least 3 weeks of schedule on my job. There were WEEKS that my job was quiet because of their inability to stick to a schedule or communicate. This was easily the most stressful component of the entire job.
2. The quality control of the box locations was not done, causing rework of drywall and mess after failing our initial final inspection. Matt did get the sections of drywall patched by his team, but the master electrician should have caught this.
3. Two components of the job still aren't done and ive had to hire another electrician to complete the job. Matt is unresponsive/doesn't follow up.
4. The communication between installer, master electric, and Matt was...very poor. This created stress, confusion, extra work for me...I was unable to trust anything that I was told.
5. This team was among the dirtiest- leaving trash blowing around and debris everywhere. I have a feeling that they typically don't behave this way, but I was often cleaning up after their work.
In summary, I think the individuals at TE&L have good intentions and are competent, but as a team they are not effective.

3267 Bee Cave Rd, Ste 107-228, Austin, TX 78746
Had to get 2 outlets for our Media room. Guys came in and ran the wires and installed the outlets. Price was low, very clean work, and very professional. I have referred many friends to these guys already. They met all of my expectations and again the price was excellent for the quality and clean work they did. Highly recommend.
Leander, TX 78641
Great customer service. Guys were on time and went above and beyond. I will be using them on my future projects.
12307 Roxie Dr, Austin, TX 78729
My main power kept tripping at the house and we were in a bit of a time crunch. James dropped what he was doing on a Saturday, came over and got us all fixed within an hour of me calling him. Super friendly guy and a true Texan. He was unusually fair on price compared to everyone else. I still feel like I owe him for being so awesome. Highly recommend him.
2 Spanish Oak Ln, Liberty Hill, TX 78642
Stormy installed an outdoor ceiling fan for me. I was extremely impressed with his responsiveness and service. He was able to get me on the schedule within a day or two. The fan was somewhat non-standard, but he was able to install it with no delay. The installation was excellent, and he even cleaned up the packaging materials for me. I would highly recommend HEC Electrical Services.

Rodney of Aerial Electric is a great electrician. He's thorough, highly knowledgeable, and easy-going. He works carefully, but he's also quick. He had several opportunities to do additional work, but he pointed out the ways I could save money by doing the work myself. Rodney is also happy to explain everything he's doing as he's doing it, which is a good education for me. I'm not going to risk any other electrician; he's the only one I'll consider.
1409 Mangrum St, Pflugerville, TX 78660
Talk about an amazing experience! I had the pleasure of meeting David and having him install recessed lighting in my home. David was thorough during installation as he meticulously measured the areas and asked me to confirm the placement prior to him cutting into the sheetrock. If you are in the market for electrical work, PRIMOS is the way to go.
Cedar Park, TX 78613
Quick response for appointment request, showed up when he said he would. Very thoroughly investigated the problem, fixed the problem quickly and charged a reasonable rate.
2313 Oxford Blvd, Round Rock, TX 78664
Hands down the best tradesman I have ever worked with!
After a small electrical fire which also took out power to my AC, I was in desperate need of an electrician. Of course this took place when most places were closing for the day but, after about 8 calls, I came across Steven at SFX Electric. Hallelujah! Not only did he show up pretty quick, he nailed the issue down without hesitation. We own a very old house that needs some work. While we are game to tackle most projects on our own, electrical is not something we mess with. That said, Steven could have easily taken advantage and used a scare tactic to make me believe we would need a ton of work done or else we could be in danger. He did exactly the opposite! He is a truly fair and down to Earth person, and made it a point to let me know that he is not interested in selling me on things that we don't need and would rather prefer to be a trustworthy resource. He gave me some suggestions and let me know what could be improved, and what really didn't need changing. By the way, a lot of those unnecessary changes were strongly suggested on a previous quote by a different company in town, which came with an unnecessary price tag. Not only that, but we have a big electrical job we need done and Steven quoted us significantly less than that other company mentioned.
Not only were he and his apprentice kind, professional and timely, I never for a second felt threatened with them being in my house without anyone else at home. It also brought me comfort to learn that he will not hire just any random person off of the street. He makes a point to primarily hire local firefighters and/or military veterans. I believe I heard him mention that he himself is a Veteran Marine. He was also in no rush and even encouraged me to ask any other electrical questions I had, which he answered accompanied by a few sketches so I would understand completely.
Seriously folks, Steven is a truly honest guy with character that isn't trying to rake in a wad of cash, but cares more about your trust and business. I am sometimes guilty of relying too much on the quantity of reviews a business has on Yelp. Well I struck gold taking a chance on SFX Electric.....DO THE SAME! This company is now, without question, our go to electrical resource.
Thank you guys!!!!

This is a wonderful company. Everyone who works there is not only good at his work, but also kind, friendly, and helpful. They have done the full wiring on two homes in which I have lived, and they did a great job.
My elderly husband had a flat tire on the highway near A-1 Electric. It was in the middle of a Texas summer, and he had just gotten out of his truck to examine the problem, when two of the men from A-1 drove by. They immediately turned their truck around and insisted that they would change the tire for him. It was done in just a very few minutes, but it was such a kind act, that we were both very impressed.

This is the first time I've used yelp for home services and I am glad I did because their service was just great! Although the electrical service I needed for my place was not that complicated, I definitely needed an electrician that had the expertise to properly wire and install the light sockets on my kitchen and living room. They look just great! Great service at a very reasonable price!
