Best Electricians in Austin, TX

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.

A few months ago, one of my my hard-wired smoke alarms went particularly insane over a 12 hour period, and I could NOT make it happy no matter how many fresh batteries I fed it. Exasperated as the ear-splitting beeps shifted into constant mode, I jumped on Yelp to find I-didn't-know-who-or-what to come make it stop, no matter the consequences. Primos had good reviews so I gave David a call, and I caught him in the car on his way somewhere. He couldn't come for a few hours by which time I thought I'd surely have offed myself in desperation.

Acknowledging my pain with no promise of anything for himself, he very calmly talked me down and walked me through each step to at least make the noise stop. He spent about 30 minutes on the phone with me as I struggled to wrench the machine from my ceiling and then, mercifully, press the button a final time to hear it whir its blessed death rattle. We talked about replacing all of them (it was time), but there was covid, and I could live without one of my 5 alarms. He didn't pressure me or ask for any money though I offered. But I did put him in my contacts so I wouldn't forget him when the time came.

A few weeks ago, 2 more alarms died in quick succession (but I knew what to do to stop the madness!) so I decided it was time. I gave David a call, and we agreed on the 10 year machines with 10 year lithium batteries. To be honest, I didn't compare prices--he'd helped me out, and I felt loyalty to him. He did say he gave me a discount, and I do know these things are not cheap. He installed them, and he says they are better quality than what I had (they say they'll last 2-4 years longer, and I'm not expecting to go away for the weekend and return to find my cat in a straight jacket from 48 hours of ear-screeching torment b/c one battery went dead in a HARD WIRED system). I am very pleased with him and his work. He was flexible, and he's a very nice guy.

I haven't had a go-to electrician in this house, but I do now. He handles all kinds of electrical issues, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. In fact, I already have to a few other people besides yourself.

It's so rare in this age and in this social climate for a stranger to just step up and be nice with no promise of reward. That used to be what people did, but it's been a long time since I've experienced that. Perhaps that's why his kindness was so memorable and I was so grateful for it. Such an attitude should always be rewarded. And he just happened to be good at what he does as well.

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.

Blew my mind how quickly they responded.  Had contacted 3 other electricians first, one cancelled and the other two never got back with us.  They had what they needed on the truck and advised me of a manufacturing defect that I could exchange the defective part to have a spare on hand in case of another failure.  Would highly recommend to anyone needing electrical work done.  You won't regret it!

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!

If you need electrical work done with care and professionalism this is a great company to call . I was able to get an appointment squeezed into an already busy schedule as most companies including this are usually booked up a couple weeks out which is fair . But unlike the other companies Brushy Creek Electric made and exception for my small but tedious job and where able to come out the next day .
   I basically had a Sonos SL One speaker in wall mounting kit that needed an outlet added to the inside of the mounting box where the speaker sits. This is so you don't have to run any plugs inside the wall but rather just plug the speaker into the wall mount itself . This isn't like a regular cord hiding kit where you just cut a hole up top and then another one next to the outlet on bottom to plug it in with the cord showing on bottom. It actually needs to be hardwired into the existing electrical wires in the wall and I wasn't about to attempt to mess with it myself not knowing one thing about electrical work other than hanging simple lights and fans. On top of the fact that my stud / wire finder was saying there where wires I could possibly cut through by accident behind the sheet rock. Also the fact this whole project was under my staircase which is built a little different from the rest of the interior walls so it's sketchy for me to just cut away. The kit is by ( Thenos ) not Thanos from the Avengers by the way which will pop up on autocorrect every time you look for the company on google incase you want one lol .  
    I'm happy I chose Brushy Creek Electric , Greg was patient with my questions very neat with the work he did and affordable considering what I was asking him to do. He was also pretty quick with the job and made sure everything worked as it should before completing the job . I will say I called around plenty of other reputable companies and got twice the price and a longer wait time for an appointment as I did with Brushy Creek Electric.
   I'm not saying he's super cheap because to be fair all jobs change depending on the task and difficulty level which you should always consider . I am saying he will get the job done rite at a reasonable competitive price according to the industry standards and you won't have to worry about issues later because he definitely knows what he's doing . I say this because its not fair to make up this idea that because someone got a good deal on a job that you deserve to pay less than what is recommended and then get angry when it's not what you expect on a quote . There is always a standard most people charge it's their livelihood but this company is very fair with their prices and if they say something costs higher than what you expect to pay just remember another company might charge double just because they have a big head on their shoulders and haven't been around as long.
   Please consider Brushy Creek Electrical when you have any electrical problems or projects and you won't be disappointed. Call (512) 335-2828  they are available 24/7 according to their listing .

Ford Electric came out promptly when we had an electrical issue. He got our electricity back up and running within hours. When it was evident there were bigger issues (most likely stemming from Texas 2020 winter storm) he resolved the issues quickly. He even took care of our other electrical  concerns while he was here and everything runs like a charm now.

I needed some electrical work dropped in for a new hot tub.  Some neighbors referred me to Rusty.   I called him on a Sunday thinking I would leave a message and get a follow up call during the work week.  Nope.   I got a human on the phone!   He came out the very next day to review the job, provided a very reasonable price and I was placed on the schedule.

The install date had to be moved several times due to the concrete contractor and the spa company.   Each time, he was understanding of the rescheduling.     When d-day finally arrived, he arrived with his crew earlier than expected and jumped right on it.    

Rusty was communicative, did what he said he would do and did a great job.  I highly recommend this company!!

I was very pleased with the service.  I had my toilets replaced and repairs done to my water heater.  Everything was done in a timely manner at a reasonable price.  I highly recommend.

JF is an incredibly intelligent and friendly Master Electrician - he has an extreme attention to detail and knows the code inside and out. If you are looking for a quality-first electrician, JF is your guy

Totally unsatisfied.  Even though the website suggests otherwise, I believe he is a one man show, and don't let the address fool you, he doesn't really have a storefront. He was picked after exhausting several other shops with days of a waiting list.  I was there for a portion of his initial assessment and could tell he couldn't find the right combination of button pushing to get into the diagnostic mode (something I figured out later).  Without diagnostics, he was sure the main control board needed replacing and he told my wife it would be low $300s plus install on top of his original $80 service fee.  I was there a day later when he replaced it, and at this point I still trusted him.  It struck me funny that he asked if I'd looked up the price of the board, which I hadn't at that point.  It takes a full cycle to run into the problem we were having, so I paid him $370, and he left.  Later that night we ran a load, and it was still broken.  I got on the internet and figured out how to put it in diagnostic mode.  Conclusion, either bad water pressure, fouled, strainer on incoming water, replace water valve.  I replaced the $60 water valve in about 20 minutes, and everything works fine now. While looking for valves, I priced the board he replaced at $206-$212.  I know some probably buy wholesale and mark up a bit, but I believe he was feeling me out about how much he could charge.  The receipt he emailed had no detail.  It said $370 Custom Amount.  After I correctly diagnosed, I gave him a chance to come out and finish and asked him to bring my old part and his receipt for it so I might be able to put the old board back and return the new for some type of credit.  We decided 3:00 the next day.  I contacted him at 5:45 and he was in Georgetown.  He offered the next morning.  I stayed home from work until noon, and he was a no-show.  Summary: wrong diagnosis, over-charge on wrong replacement part, no detailed receipt, failed to return twice.

I've used Ernest Olson for all my homes that I built. I never had an issue with him. Great service. Always kept his schedule and at a reasonable price. Never had an electrical warranty call on any of the homes he did either.

Called the number listed for an appointment,  and it says to text. I texted for the last 3 days and no response. I will not use this vendor. Terrible experience.

Terrible company, main guy, Chris is disrespectful. Residential company trying to do commercial work!

I work for a large association management company and decided I would give this smaller contractor an opportunity to shine and gain ALOT of work if they did a good job, well so much for trying to help the little guy. Two months ago i ordered lighting for a mailbox cluster at one of the communities I manage, and the job is still not complete. From day one I have had to call for an update, not once have they provided good customer service by keeping me informed and all I have received is excuse after excuse for why things aren't done. Once the pole is installed, I get told it will be another $650 to run power to the light. What legitimate contractor does not confirm power as step one to a bid?? They have been an absolute disaster to work with and I would not recommend them to change a light bulb, much less do any electrical work.
