Best Businesses 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!!

I arranged with Steve to install an outdoor security camera requiring an electrical outlet. He gave me a very reasonable estimate and we set a date and time for the install. Unexpectedly, he had an open spot in his schedule and thought to call me to see if I wanted him to do the install. This was great for my schedule.

He was very professional and didn't mind me watching and asking questions as I love to learn from experts. The install went without any issues and I now have the security camera I have wanted for a long time.

You can't go wrong calling on Lyons Electric.

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.

Several neighbors recommended Mike Gingokaski at Superior Electrical.

We had 2 jobs that needed his services...to add an outlet in the bathroom near the toilet for a bidet and to fix an outlet that kept tripping the breaker.

Mike came out to give us an estimate.  We were happy with his quote and went ahead with the work.

On the day of, he was prompt and found out right away why our outlet was tripping.  He repaired that and then installed new outlet in our bathroom.

All in all, he did a great job...very knowledgeable and is a master electrician.   Totally recommend him.

I've had two experiences with Chase Electric, very different.

The first was simple.  I wanted a timer installed on my pool pump.  

Well, Christian responded to my e-mail, came out, did a great job, billed a fair amount, and I even connected with him as a fellow guitarist (he, if memory serves, plays a Gibson ES-175).  

Nice guy.  Seemed to know his stuff.  I liked him.

The second experience was more problematic.  One day a week before Christmas 2016, lots of stuff went wrong all over my house in a random way.  Dead lights in rooms nowhere near each other, various dead outlets, no central heat, and the pool pump failed.  

The heat was a real problem -- it was in the twenties outside.  I work from home.  My house was freezing.

I asked Christian if he could come out via e-mail, reporting these issues briefly.  There was no response for two days.  

This was surprising -- I work for myself too, and if I am awake, not an hour will go by in which I don't check business e-mail.  And Chase Electric has its e-mail address front and center on its Web site, inviting people to use it.

Well, in two days, he did get back to me and said he had some time the following week.  I said with no heat in my house, I needed a faster fix than that... so I would find someone else.  He then suggested an HVAC specialist.

Now, being busy the week before Christmas... that I completely understood.   But it was odd that a master electrician would refer me to an HVAC specialist for this.

Anybody with a background in technical troubleshooting (such as mine) knows that when 5-10 different things all go wrong simultaneously, there is a root cause.  This particular root cause was obviously electrical.  And it spanned different circuits, not just the furnace circuit.  

It was therefore something that linked these circuits (meaning either the breaker box or a problem with the city power that led to the breaker box)... as I had suggested to him.

So I knew, immediately, that I had just gotten some dubious advice that was only going to waste my time and money, and I did not hire an HVAC specialist to tell me that my issue was electrical.

Well, Christmas came along and the weather turned warm, and I'm basically a nice guy.  So I wrote him back, and said I'd like to start over with all this, and politely offered him the job again.  Didn't ask for an estimate.  Didn't press him on the timeframe.  Just said I would be glad to hire him.

I never heard a word.  

A week later, I troubleshot this issue myself... using a multimeter and some common sense.  The problem was indeed the power coming from the city (a corroded splice on the roof that killed a hot feed into the breaker box).  Then I managed to talk the city into admitting it was their problem and fixing it (not an easy thing to do).

So I'm rating Chase Electric a 5 for the pump timer job, which was great... but a 0 for this recent experience.   Averaged out they come to 2.5, which I'm rounding up to three because he's a guitarist.  But sitting in my freezing house, I really deserved better advice than to be sent to an HVAC specialist for what was obviously not an HVAC problem at all.

Highly recommend! I am a first time home owner, and had a great experience with this team. They are extremely knowledgable and quick to diagnose issues, repair, and educate clients along the way! I am grateful to have found my go-to electric team.

I had a tricky wiring problem in my old, old house. Robert spent many hours to find and fix the problem. Also Robin went out of her way to work with me on the billing, and also to work with my not-so-easy-to-deal-with insurance plan. I would recommend them to anyone!

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.

The service from the team at Lykos was top notch and thorough. There is a glitch somewhere in my house wiring that has caused a series of ceiling lights and wall outlets not to work. They came on two occasions and spent several hours each visit searching through the entire electrical circuitry of the house without finding the glitch. They were not comfortable offering a less-than-safe make-do solution, which I appreciate and respect. They did not charge me for any of their time in this endeavor. I am impressed with their thoroughness, honesty and professionalism and highly recommend them.

Mr. Walton of Walton Electrical Services is a very knowledgeable and skilled electrical professional. This is the second time I've worked with this gentleman and this company is the only company I will hire and/or recommend whenever electrical work is involved. His prices are very reasonable and his work is always neat and completed within a timely fashion. He is punctual and sets proper expectations, unlike most contractors. I highly recommend Walton Electrical Services!

I had Jarrod install two flood lights for me.  He completed the job when he said he would and at the price he quoted me.

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!

Best electrician I've ever used. Very courteous on site and attempted to troubleshoot prior over the phone prior to sending a tech to save me money! No need to shop around. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

I almost never give reviews, so for me to be doing this says as much as the 5 stars I'm giving. Greg was communicative, keeping me informed throughout the permitting process. He was prompt, arriving at exactly 8am, as promised. He did everything within his power to make sure the job was done on time, on budget, and most importantly, done correctly. I would recommend Greg and Georgetown Electric Company to my family and friends without hesitation.

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!

We've used Eugene for more than 20 years now.  He's amazing.  If you are looking for some big company with electricians standing by, you're looking in the wrong place.  He runs a very small shop, and is scaling back as he heads into retirement.  If you are willing to work with his schedule, though, he is the absolute best in the business. We've used him for everything from totally rewiring a 1940's bungalow to installing new lights and switches in a modern house. He's the most honest person I've ever worked with, and a perfectionist unwilling to leave you with anything but the most solid work. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Thoroughly impressed!  Not only did they get here to give me an estimate promptly, I was able to schedule the work within a couple of days. Probably could have been sooner had we not been out of the office for a couple of days. The morning of the scheduled work, they arrived early.... what???  The young men that did the work were delighful.  Very polite, did the job quickly with positive attitudes.  Everyone in my office commented on how great the electricians were.
