Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Awesome guys! Great job with my new backyard/man cave!!

Had a thermostat/furnace issue. Called Z-Tex to check the wiring. They came out in 90 minutes, checked it out (wiring is fine). Professional, pleasant, and inexpensive. $55!

Highly recommend.

I am so lucky to find Robert from Yelp. I was taking some risks to hire Northwest Electric because there was no any review before. He was helping me to complete all electric works of my addiction. I am so satisfied with Robert and his staff's works that I think I need to let other people know. Robert is very professional, knowledgeable and willing to find the best solution for me. Also the price is very affordable. His staff is friendly, working hard, keeping clean for me. Definitely I am going to recommend Northwest Electric to all my friends.

Great experience with Wilkins Electric! They do quality work in a timely and professional manner. I highly recommend them!

Wieco electric is top notch!  If you have any electrical needs for your home or business, you must call Wieco electric!  These guys were awesome and in stalled all of our requested needs in a reasonable amount of time and with utmost professionalism.  The work they did was clean and very meticulous.  They were on time and completed the work in less time than expected.  Greg, you are awesome and very knowledgeable.  We will definitely be referring you to all of our friends in Law Enforcement!

Mr. Schooley is on time, every time and really knows his business. He quickly figured out the issue and all was fixed within fifteen minutes of his arrival. Very reasonable rates. A skilled professional and gentleman of the highest integrity. Highly recommended.

Tim and James of Texas Electric and Light did all the Electrical work for our new home construction.  Our project had some atypical wiring and connections for a residential project.  Tim worked with us on solving problems that arose during the length of our project. Tim and James went out of their way to fix problems created by other trades.  Not only were they profesional but very personable as well.  We truly enjoyed working with them.

LOVE HD!!!  Have used them for over a year.  Always polite, prompt, (usually early!), and know their stuff!  Don't have to wait weeks for them to come out.   The only electricians I will ever use.

My husband and I have a light that is controlled by two switches. We tried to install a dimmer switch on one side, then the other, and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work. We installed dimmer switches on other lights successfully, he installed a couple and me the others. I spoke with Jason and explained what was going on. He asked if my husband had installed the switches. Not if I had, or if husband and I had, but only if my husband had. When I told him that my husband and I had both replaced the switches, and I had working on a few independently, he said it was impressive that I was able to do that and comfortable doing so. Despite me making the calls to Jason, and me setting up the appointments for him to look at wiring, and me explaining what was happening, he kept asking to speak with my husband. If my husband would be present when Jason looked at the wiring. When I said that my husband may or may not be present for meeting, Jason asked if I knew where the breaker box was. Perhaps he was checking on my competency level. He could have also easily asked where it is, instead of implying I don't know where it is. I doubt if my husband had called and told Jason that I had worked on the dimmers with him, Jason would have asked to speak with me. Or asked my spouse if he knew where the breaker box was located.

I'm sure Conquest does fine electrical work, but I would rather not be a patron of a company who's owner is sexist.

Jason did contact me after seeing this review. He said this was a misunderstanding, he was trying to be helpful, and regretted my opinion of him. He also said that he has several daughters and hires women at his company.

My main power kept tripping at the house and we were in a bit of a time crunch.  James dropped what he was doing on a Saturday, came over and got us all fixed within an hour of me calling him.  Super friendly guy and a true Texan.  He was unusually fair on price compared to everyone else.  I still feel like I owe him for being so awesome.  Highly recommend him.

Stormy installed an outdoor ceiling fan for me.   I was extremely impressed with his responsiveness and service.   He was able to get me on the schedule within a day or two. The fan was somewhat non-standard, but he was able to install it with no delay.   The installation was excellent,  and he even cleaned up the packaging materials for me. I would highly recommend HEC Electrical Services.

We need some work done at our business. Steve was recommended by our long-time air conditioning contractor. We were initially really happy to be working with him because he was highly recommended and because he showed up right away to look over the job when we called.

We were promised an estimate shortly. Waited two weeks, left a message on 11/16. Waited another week, left a message on 11/24. No call return and no estimate.

I expected at least a phone call saying that he decided not to bid the job. I did not expect to be blown off. Not good business practice, I think.

I hired Joey to install an outlet and dimmer switch.  His prices were reasonable and less than other quotes.  I would hire him again.
I did ask him for a quote on a breaker box which he said he would get an estimate and I never heard back.  In regards to the other guy's negative review  - Joey mentioned he lived 30 minutes outside Austin and tries to schedule all his Austin jobs when he is able to drive up to Austin so that might be why he had to reschedule.

Joel doesn't warranty work after 3 months. Was told it would be warrantied for one year. The repair from July failed and he claims the water meter shifted on its own. Somehow the one right next to it is ok. Overcharged from the beginning. Was told here is an hourly rate and what I was billed for way more hours than he was actually on site. I wasn't there at the time, but he also didn't know the tile setter that was at the house is a friend of mine and mentioned the original repair did not take as many hours as he billed me. Don't trust and beware. Lots of leaking video as well, just can't post.

UPDATE*********

Had someone come out and fix the problem. They charged me $135 and also mentioned the way he fixed it originally was part of the issue. Like I mentioned above Joel over billed me for the same work charging $525. I personally do not trust him.
