Best Businesses in Austin, TX

I highly recommend Don, owner, with Alum Creek Electric. We were having trouble with our electric turning off & on...tripping the main breaker. I found Don's company through the Nextdoor App. I called him after hours and he was here within an hour. Don checked all of our breaker boxes and was able to detect the problem. Once the repairs were done, he even gave us some tips on a future update that the property will need. We are going to stay warm tonight thanks to Don!

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.

I found Mike Gingolaski, owner & operator of Superior Electrical Services from a friend's recommendation. I had a Ring doorbell installed by someone else and it didn't work. I contacted Mike, we set an appointment to have him check it out. He showed up on time, diagnosed the problem and completed the repair. The transformer and doorbell itself was fried by the incorrect installation. He replaced both the doorbell and transformer and installed a brand new Ring doorbell for a reasonable price and I am thrilled. First to have my Ring working like it should and second, because he showed up, climbed in the attic, had all of the parts needed and rocked it. Then my husband who is a model train enthusiast needed a light fixture setup over his newly constructed table. Mike came out and quoted a great option but it was more than we wished to spend. My husband and Mike discussed several options in the following week and came up with the solution that fit the budget. The large train table was already in place and couldn't be moved, so he hung LED lights on the ceiling on the outside area of the table. He had to work on a ladder doing overhead drilling and such. Mike handled it with ease and in a timely manner for an affordable price. We highly recommend this local business and the owner who is bonded and insured. He's very quick to respond to texts, phone calls, etc. His work area is cleaned up when he's through and he handles himself in a professional yet friendly manner. If you need an electrician, call Mike. He provided outstanding customer and professional service and we will contact him any time we need an electrician.

Had a very good experience even though we didn't use him for service. He was booked up till the next week and made some good recommendation on what the problem might be and how to fix it. He also gave referral to another very nice company which was also helpful. Would try to use him again when he is less busy. hopefully.

Called Remedy Electric to come out to install EV charger. They went above and beyond to get the install for me. Turns out the home builder definitely made sure it was hard for them to do so. They were up for the challenge and installed the plug, on the side I wanted it to be, in my garage. Thank you Remedy Electric.

We had a tricky job because of our roofline and location on the breaker box on an existing home.  We needed a plug changed to 330v service for a new double oven that was being installed.  Robert came out to evaluate the work needed and explained that it would be tough to give us a firm estimate.  So what he did was give us best case scenario and worse case and let us make the decision.  We appreciated his candor and honesty and authorized them to do the work.  Robert and his helper, were prompt, efficient and tidy.  Best of all he was able to get the job done within the best case scenario.  I highly recommend this company.

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.

Martin was referred to me by a friend to correct the problems noted in the inspection before I bought my home. What a polite professional!  He did a top notch job of correcting the electrical hazards in my home & installing our new HVAC system. He went above & beyond, was always on time, and thoroughly explained everything, including costs. His son Jude and Antonio are also very reliable. I would never even consider using anyone else after my experience with Lykos. Very honest. And Martin, thanks for the donuts and for tolerating our little dogs.

I've known Darryl Walton for almost 12 years. He is fast, affordable, and knowledgeable on any electrical issue you could have. He's also a great guy with an excellent sense of humor.

If you want your electrical work done well give Darryl Walton a call. He is by far the best electrician I've ever used and the only person I trust with my home electrical needs.

We had Jarrod with Greenlight come out and bid a complete re-wire on our little east Austin home, which had aluminum wiring on the point of failure (several blown outlets). He had been recommended to us by the folks who put in our ductless split AC system (Green Air Conditioning & Heating - Seamus: another great person and business). Jarrod was right on time with our schedule, and even though he wasn't the cheapest bid, he was the only person who would give us an actual bid, and not just a verbal guesstimate and an hourly rate. He also added a few extras (pendant lights and W/D outlets) for a really good price.

Once we figured out exactly what we wanted to have done (where all the outlets and exterior lights would go) he and his other electricians came by and did everything very quickly and cleanly. We had our breaker box replaced, the lines to the house moved from the eaves to through-the-roof (well above the driveway), new copper wiring throughout, brought everything up to modern code, and added a few new circuits (W/D, dishwasher).

All of this was done with the proper permitting and good humor about it... and I can't tell you how important that was for us . Even when there was a little hiccup with the City  -- they freaked us out by saying that we had to get a building permit because he'd cut a channel in the drywall to replace the wiring -- Jarrod went to the Board of Adjustments and got it all straightened out very quickly  (basically, the person he'd asked was misinformed, and the BOA said we did not need a building permit).

The final electrical inspection went off without a hitch and we passed with flying colors. The inspectors (rough-in and final) complimented his work and said that we wouldn't have any electrical worries with the house with the new setup.

We should mention here that one of us is an electrical engineer, and the other is a City of Austin employee, so our standards for having work done (and done to code) are pretty high. Jarrod not only met those standards... he exceeded them.   Now, we can sleep at night without worrying that we're going to burn to a crisp in our beds. Thanks, Jarrod, for being such a thorough and unflappable electrician!

Called Live Wire based on their positive Yelp reviews and location.
They scheduled a same-day call, showed up 15 minutes early, and fixed the issue. (Multiple tripping GFCI boxes)
Throughout, they were courteous, prompt, and professional. Highly recommend.
Thanks, Colton!

I had an appointment scheduled with Biggs.  The day and time came and went without so much as a call.  About an hour after our scheduled time, I called Biggs to see if they were delayed or needed to re-schedule.  Still not heard back from them.  I wish I could agree with the other reviews about the quality of the work, but being a no-show is a big NO-NO.

J & Co did an amazing job. From their prompt response time to working with my timeline they were very professional. Josh showed up on time and was great at working with the challenges we had with where to place my pendent lights. The lights turned out beautiful and I will definitely use them again in the future.

Doug is great to work with.  Responded to my initial reach out within an hour, got me scheduled two days later, showed up on time and didnt just help me out, but talked me through my options and what was best for the solution I needed.  He was very polite, asked for permission to enter, and if he could walk on the carpet in shoes, and knocked my project out fast.  I will definitely recommend him to all my neighbors, and will use him again when the time comes.

I had an exceptional experience with Greg! He was prompt to come give me a quote and quick to schedule install. He installed recessed can lights for our backyard patio and we love it! Not to mention his pricing is great too!

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!

When I bought my new house and needed to get some electrical work done, I called around to several electricians to get an estimate.  Surprisingly, a lot of them didn't even return my calls, but Eugene called me back, gave me a thorough explanation of the electrical issues outlined in my home inspection report, and set up a time to fix my problems.  So far he's helped me out with replacing an outdated interior breaker box, and did a complete update of my outdoor electrical system.  He does great work, and he's a pleasure to work with.  Highly recommended.

Highly recommend! Responsive and quality work. I received a better price than others had quoted me and I think overall a better job was done than would have been otherwise. Great company!
