Best Businesses in Austin, TX

I first met Chris when he did the electrical work for Wright Hearing & Air when they installed some split units at my home. I understand why Chris is their go to electrician. After meeting & talking, we agreed on several additional projects that were long overdue & were a safety hazard. Chris's innovative, practical & affordable solutions were exactly what this layman needed. He is now our go to guy as well.

What an excellent company!  We have used them for 2 service calls.  The electrician that was sent out was Mr. Ken.  He is honest, kind and has quality workmanship.  Our second service call was completed with pictures and descriptions, since I was unable to stay for the full service call.  After the call,  I couldn't get electricity to our RV so Ken came back to double-check the work and the problem ended up with my equipment.  They went above and beyond.  This company is exceptional. Prices are very reasonable.  I will be hiring them again. Thank-you Morningstar Light and Electric.

They SAVED us. They were able to help us out with a complicated issue related to a hook up to city sewer. They sent out guys twice last minute so that we could have everything fixed in time for a final inspection. The owner also answered his phone in the evening and called our plumber to work through an issue. We will definitely use this company in the future and refer them to friends.

I highly recommend Advance wiring for honest, quality service.   Rehabbing homes across the country, I've worked with many different contractors and Tom was knowledgable, gave a good estimate, and repaired my electric issue on the spot..  the best service I have experienced in Austin.   Tom is my go to from now on.  
Thank you.

Aaron showed up at the agreed upon time and did the work for the agreed upon amount.... great attitude and will definitely use him again. Highly recommend Aaron... don't think twice about it. He isn't pushing reviews or gaming the system, this is honest feedback.

They came the next day repaired our problem just wish they would have told me they either had a two hour minimum or charged for a hour of travel time.  Did a great job just wasn't expecting to pay for two hours when it took right at a hour to do the job.

The owner is great! I was in a real jam and know nothing about electrical work. I travel all over and didn't know anyone in the area and found CT Electric. The owner came out and solved my problema ASAP! Thanks a million!!
The t-shirt man!!!

I hired Major Solar and it was one of the best decisions I made while remodeling my house.  Blake came and gave a great bid, offering helpful suggestions and advice along the way.  There were even a few items that I thought I wanted to do and he came up with a more cost effective way to incorporate them into the house. He is courteous, on time and most importantly HONEST.  I highly recommend Blake and his team for any size project you might have.  You will not be disappointed.

Marble Falls Electric and AC, Inc. has done a lot of recent electrical and AC work for me.  I own a small Inn called Painted Sky Inn on Lake Buchanan and it is very difficult to get reliable and reasonable priced help out here.  About 6 to 8 months ago I asked the owners if they did emergency services since I knew there would come a time when I would need that.  They said absolutely.  Two weeks ago I had a family in our Lakeview House and they reported that the temperature was not going down in the house although the air had been on for 3 hours.  I called Marble Falls Electric and had to leave a message and then subsequently called 2 other local companies who also did not answer.  Within about 30 minutes Kim with Marble Falls Electric returned my call and told me that they would be on site shortly to look at the problem.  This was on a Saturday evening.  Glen and Kim, the owners, showed up within 45 minutes and spent about 1 hour doing everything to get the system back to cooling.  They succeeded and the guests were comfortable for the rest of the time.  We did decide to not gamble on the system lasting through the summer due it's overall condition and Marble Falls Electric and AC replaced the compressor within a few days.  They gave me a fair price and completed the work quickly while the same family was in the house for their vacation.  Even the family commented on the difference in the temperature and effort of the system to cool from the old to the new.  They could feel a drastic difference.  I want everyone to know about this company because they were true to their word about doing emergency service and they were fair with me, very fair with their charges.  I appreciate having partners like them to work with.  Only one of the other two companies returned my call but it was on the following day and one never called me back.

I hired Sarge Mabry to do a complete re-wire of my garage.  This involved taking out all of the old wire, putting in all new wire, and adding lots of new plugs (very nice!).  He did a great job at a reasonable price.

Old house with some new problems:  My house is 99 years old and is very well-built, with much of the original infrastructure in place, and when it needs attention, it requires a creative approach and a flexible mind. We called A-ONE, received a timely response and evaluation, then a comprehensive and professional bid with what I considered to be a fair price.  The job presented a few challenges, but they were overcome and without complaint.  Karen, the owner, and the two technicians who completed the job, David and Douglas, were a pleasure to associate with.  All of them were forthcoming about the job and our questions, were professional in their approach, were pleasant with a sense of humor, and there was no loud music or shouting.  What a blessing.  A-ONE is locally owned, and I highly recommend.

Highly recommended! They were super helpful over the phone once (& didn't even charge me for the advice given in that emergency). Been using them ever since!

We hired Kelly from Kruse Electric to perform an electric pole repair job in Taylor. They are a family run business and run it with integrity and honesty. Despite having several jobs lined up, they provided an immediate quote to me over the phone. They provided a free estimate and didn't charge any visit fee. Moreover, not only did they provide the best quote, after scheduling the job, they completed it as promised (on time, on budget). They accept most forms of payments. Definitely give this business a chance for any kind of your electrical needs in Austin/Taylor area.

We met David and 1st Plumbing Services at the Circle C Food Trailer night.  He came out and diagnosed and fixed our low water pressure.  He was early, professional and a knowledgeable Plumber. Will use them again.

Updated: About a year later we called 1st plumbing to help with a garbage disposal installation, and the receptionist insisted that they come out, and we pay the $45 consult, even though we know what we need. Will try somebody else.

I was trying to get someone to troubleshoot an issue happening to several outlets and lights in my house. Was struggling to find someone to do it since most companies were not able to give me much information besides their hourly rates.

I decided to hire Pro Light ATX because Tony was down to earth and easy to deal with from the beginning. Instead of just quoting me hourly rates, he asked questions about the issue and give me a worst case estimate for a fix. He also got me to understand that the issue could be a potential safety hazard so I got him to come and take a look as soon as possible.

There was a few communication issues when we were trying to organize the visit, but as soon as Tony got to my house he got to work trying to discard some theories. He was able to get the issue fixed and thankfully it was nothing severe and less than his original estimate. He charged me a very fair rate for almost 2 hours of work, definitely lower than what others had tried to charge before.

Overall I had a good experience and would hire him again for potential projects.

Be very careful with this contractor.  He was called out to give us a bid for work on one of our properties.  He was onsite for about fifteen minutes and did not do anything but look.  He then billed us for work he did and when we refused to pay he threatened us with a lien.   If I could give him less than 1 star I would.
