Best Electricians in Austin, TX

I called A.C.E. On a Saturday around 3:00pm. I had no lights in my kitchen and was going to be entertaining at 6:00. He said he was just about home and was calling it a day, but he would be happy to come by and fix the problem. 10 mins later he was there. Not only did he fix the kitchen switch, but a dead outlet in my bedroom. He got up in the attic and found a shotty splice that was causing the dead outlet. Now I have power on the only wall where I can put a tv in my bedroom. Old school customer service!!!! A.C.E. Really saved the day. The total cost was awesome for odd hours on the weekend. He's got my business!!

Steve is a master electrician who is actually an instructor for other electricians. He's done work for us for years, installing a 12V system of exterior lighting that goes on and off automatically, adding a cable outlet, installing ceiling fans, even coming over on a Sunday afternoon to fix our phone cable when I chopped a foot out of it. He also cabled my offices for the computer network. Great service, very helpful, and at a reasonable cost. He stays pretty busy, but I think he's one of the few electrical contractors who likes these small jobs. Really, I think he likes helping people...

Our house went dark .
we called around  for a electrician only  one responded  that  they could do it that day
within the hour the technican arrived  after checking everything  out he told us it was a  blown breaker  .fixed in minutes  with a new part from  lows .
he was on his way to a conferance when we called and as he solved  the problem in a matter of minutes he said there will be *** no charge ***
not many bisiness  give you a free ride expecially  in a emergency situation  like that

we cannot express enough thanks to J R  Ketter  for his  kind act .

this company is on our  list to call when needing someone with  electrical expertise,   put the company on your list as well.

Mike Gingokaski at Superior Electrical has provided outstanding customer service and did an excellent job in making some electrical changes that were associated with an extensive remodel done on the 1st floor of my home.  He is extremely knowledgeable and provided me with a DIY idea that is easy to perform and will improve the can lighting that I have throughout the first floor.  He was both professional and friendly and did not hesitate to answer any and all of my questions.  I would recommend him highly.

Christian was awesome! I called to schedule an appt to check our circuit that had stopped working. He walked me though a bunch of troubleshooting and we found the problem in a few minutes and he ended up not having to come out. This is the way buisinesses should be run. We will be only using Christian Chase for all of our electrical needs in the future. 10/10 would electric again.

Tried to contact Remedy Electric today for a rough quote for some electric work that we needed done in our backyard.  We had an above ground pool installed and required a junction box at the sight of the pool.  

I was told by Teresa, and I quote, We do not provide free Estimates,the fee will be 50.00 dollars This will allow the electrician to Determine what is needed to give you the price, If you accept the Estimate, at the Compilation of Project the 50.00 Dollars will be removed if charged.

I'm really shocked.  Of the twenty-two companies with certified and bonded professionals I contacted, today, all of them gave me a rough quote, and every single one of them offered to come and provide a true quote at no charge.  I'm just really surprised that this company refuses to be competitive in its own market!  

There's no way I would ever entertain future work with a company so disinterested in garnering my business.  To not even _try_ to offer something... it just smacks of being completely disinterested, and that's not a good sign in a field where attention to detail, and commitment to perfection is vital!  

Strangely surprising, and a complete disappointment.

[Also, whenever a professional responds so illiterately, that's a bad sign, as far as I'm concerned.]

--------------------------------------

7/7:

Teresa,
I contacted 21 other companies who do bonded, certified electrical work to get quotes, yes, I did.  I did not say that I contacted them solely by phone.  In truth, it was a combination of work done through email and by phone.  Why that comes as such a shock, I don't know.  

Maybe it's just that electronics (like computers and cell phones) are foreign to you, but a lot of us use them to communicate on a daily basis. You seem so confused by the quotation process!  

You asked how your competitors knew the particulars of the job?  Simple. They asked me.

As I said, I was looking for a rough quote, and got them from several of your competitors without any confusion, or contempt.  The top three that I'm workings with-- companies rated higher than yours on both Yelp and Angie's List-- saw your response, and had commentary of their own to add. Like, one said, Why doesn't she just try asking those questions beforehand, rather than ranting about them in response! While another added, How difficult is it to respond in email, like we did?  It seems like your competitors weren't nearly as confused about having a conversation on the internet.  For you, mores the pity.

I'm not looking for a handyman service.  I'm looking for an insured company with top-notch professionals.  A company committed not only to excellent service, but to doing a job-- not cheaply -- but economically.  And, seriously, if you think that's a _bad_ thing... it's really no wonder several of your customers complain about your prices (look it up).

Speaking of looking things up!  You might want to look up the word 'slander' in a dictionary (to do this, get in your car, drive down to the public library, ask the librarian what happened to the card catalog, find out they've been out of use for the last ten years, then ask for help on how to do a search on the internet-- I know how much technology confuses you).  

You've accused me of maliciously or falsely defaming your company, but what I've done here is simply quote (and verbatim, too) from your response to me on Angie's List.  Then I provided my opinion on our communique.  Everything that I've posted here has been 100% factual.  No lies necessary.  Let's face it, lady, I don't have to lie to make you look bad, you do just fine on your own.  

By the way, the word you're actually looking for is 'libel', not slander (one is written, while the other is spoken). I get that you have problems with words, though, so....  I think it would really help if you invested in a dictionary (or, and I'll give you this piece of advice for free (despite how valuable my time is!) You can always use dictionary.com.  Very handy!  Don't worry, no need to thank me!).

Before I go, I had a final word about this cheap, cheap, cheap thing you keep doing.  You said that I said I was looking for the work to be done cheap.  Here's what I said in my original Angie's List response: I'm hoping it's something we can get done simply and relatively cheaply. You have several specials, and I'm not sure if any of them could be used/combined, but I'd really like to see if I could get a quote for the parts/labor.  

It's sad when a customer can't ask for quality and value without being crudely mocked by the company they came to for service.  Why anyone would ever work with you... when they can see, word-for-word, how little respect you have for not only a potential new customer, but for service done at a value, too... is beyond me.

TES recently completed a great project for us.  We built a new barn and needed Oncor (the energy provider) to place a new transformer near the barn.  TES added a new meter box, and breakers, as well as a circuit breaker box inside the barn to handle 200 amps.  Then they trenched 100 yards to my house and brought 200 amp lines to my existing panel on the house so we could eliminate an unsighly old power pole from our view.  They got the whole thing done in record time, had some great suggestions along the way to help me get power to my sheep shed for heat lamps as well.  Pricing was competitive with two other quotes I had received but these folks just seemed like good people, were knowledgeable, could fit the project in, and immediately stood behind their work when we had questions about how things operated.  We could not have been happier with our decision to use them and the outcome.

I contacted Brian to bid on an electrical job recently. Brian was easy to get a hold of, returned calls promptly, and provided my requested quote and information in a fast and efficient manner.  
While I ended up choosing another contractor for the job due to their proximity to the service location, I would not hesitate in utilizing Brian's services in the future if I have additional electrical contracting needs.

Always on time!  Clean, sober and professional!  The installation was flawless and they cleaned up after themselves before they left for the day.   I appreciated Trey's dedication and speedy service when all of the other electricans failed to return my phone calls.

Great knowledgeable people. Mr. Villalobos came and found what the problem was that our air conditioning system wasn't working. The problem wasn't the air conditioning, it was electrical. Nice people also.

Daryl called me this morning asking if I'd like him to install my ceiling fan today. I said yes and he came right at the time he said he would. He texted me when he was on his way which I especially appreciated. Upon arrival, he worked diligently and therefore quickly. I wasn't surprised at all when he told me he'd been an electeic8an for 30 years because of his effiency. I asked him questions + he was happy to answer them + also told me how rewarding it was to help people. Daryl was friendly and approachable. I love when workers can read your vibe and reciprocate it. He also wore a face mask which was respectful of him! 10/10 would reccomend.

Thank you, Daryl!

I have a sauna at my home that worked well for several years.  Then the timer developed a problem.  Out of warranty, I bought a new one, but it had the same problem.  So I called in Jarred, and he was able to come in a couple of days.  He diagnosed a broken (and wrong type) circuit breaker, and put in a new, appropriate kind.  Problem solved, and I am again enjoying my sauna.  The cost was also very reasonable, just the trip charge and the cost of the circuit breaker.

I couldn't find anyone with the expertise to install the landline of my dreams, until I met Dustin!  He went the extra mile to wire my historic home.  The work was impeccable and he took special care with what could have been a messy job.  

Highly recommend LiveWire Electrical!

David answered at the first ring. He took his time to listen to my electric problem and was very patient to explain and trying to understand and gave a general idea of how much it cost to fix the problem. I have not to work with the company yet but being responsive is a good sign of customer service.

Josh was awesome!! Got the job done in a timely matter and our fan works perfectly!

Very highly recommend & will be hiring him for any electrical needs I have in the future.

It's a breath of fresh air when you find a service repair man who knows what he is doing. Doug did me a solid and came out same day to help me in a breaker bind. Quoted me a fair price and was maticulous with his work.  He able to get me back online and back in dishwasher cleaning business. I definitely recommend Windy Hill for your electrical needs.

Highly recommend hiring Greg! I was on a time sensitive deadline to get a outlet installed in my garage for an EV car. Greg was quick to respond and meet my schedule with short notice. The work came out great and with a very reasonable price. Don't let the lack of Yelp reviews deter you, this guy is great. I'm sure with time he'll accumulate more reviews anyway. As for me, Georgetown Electric will be my go to for electrical work.

I needed custom LED lighting put in my Condo they did an amazing job. They also installed a charging station for my Tesla in no time. Super friendly professional Great Service!

the one bad review is probably a scam ... there isn't better integrity and attention to detail and knowledge and skill than Kubelka Electric.

I first saw Scott Breen's list of Kudos on Nextdoor. I reached out to him about a good sized project I had here. I needed a brand new service, meter, 200amp breaker panel and two 3-1/2 ton heat-pump with emergency back-up's connected. I was not only blown away with the efficiency of the crew, I was also very impressed with their level of professionalism. Every member of the team (and there were about 5 of them over the two days) were very polite and had great attitudes. I will indeed be using them again for other projects I have going forward as they are now my Go To for electrical work. And I must add, before they left they scoured the area both inside and outside the building and left absolutely no trash whatsoever. Great job Scott, you are running a class act....
