Best Businesses in Austin, TX

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

My entire breaker panel needed replacing. Andrew and Chris retuned my call on a Saturday morning and it took them the entire day to swap out a new one. He was very professional and clearly experienced.  I have an old east side bungalow, so they had to untangle lots of years of incorrect wiring. The entire thing looks great and I feel safe using all appliances now. They will now be my go-to for electrical work.

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!

Couldn't have asked for any better than Lamar Schooley.

Very responsive.

Showed up as he said he would.

I have no complaints about quality of work.  However it appears their billing tactics are gender biased.  I called to have someone come out to give an estimate for outside work.  My neighbor was interested in having the same type of work done on his property.  Their website stated free estimates.  A quote was emailed to me which included 4 hours of work for both Journeyman, helper and supplies.  The crew was there less than 2.5 hours.  When I questioned the quote and the less time it took the office mgr stated he would adjust .5 hr.  He said it also included first trip out for quote.  I said no, you stated free estimates, plus I gave them a referral!  My neighbor was given a discount and the crew was there the full 4 hours (more complex)  My thoughts are hmmmm, neighbor is male, and asked for a discount and got it.  Myself, female and did not get fair billing. I shared my story with my neighbor and he was sorry to hear it.  No more referrals for this company!!!

Came out the same day, both guys in masks. Talked to me about it all. Solved the problem and then offered to fix things which might prevent the issue from happening again. They were awesome. Efficient and easy! Thanks for everything!!

Our house was struck by lightning in a recent storm which caused us to have some electrical issues. Our insurance company had Conquest Electrical come out to inspect our house and make any needed repairs. Jason Dupre was very thorough and had great communication throughout the whole process. I highly recommend using this company, and will definitely use them again in the future!

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.

Not such a good experience. I called Joey and left a message on his machine. Two days later and he has not responded. I'd hoped to have a more positive experience.

BUYER BEWARE

I called Joel to do work at my property, and asked him for information relating to rate, schedule, etc. I also emailed him a small punchlist of repairs. Most important, because of the forecast for rain, was to replace some shingles on my rental property.
Joel agreed to the work, and said he would come to my property and put two men to work at a rate of $70.00/hour. He said he was busy, but scheduled me out about 10 days. He promised to be at my property on that Tuesday morning between 8:30 and 9:00 AM.
Tuesday morning I got up, secured the dogs and the livestock, and waited for Joel. After a couple hours waiting, I called to find out if he's coming. Joel said his alternator went out, but he would let me know. I waited all day, and nothing.
Next morning at 8:10 he called, said he is on his way. I secured the animals again, and waited. He showed up at 10:30 with two men. I told him I was leaving out of town in the morning, be gone for a week, and don't start anything he can't finish today. Heavy rains were coming, and I don't want materials sitting out in the elements. Joel left to buy materials, took one worker with him? and left one worker on-site. Joel and the second worker came back - three hours later - dropped off about $400.00 worth of materials and left for the day. He said that it was too hot to replace the shingles, but he would replace them in the morning - never happened.
Then, at 3:30, after 5 hours of work, the ONE worker packs up his tools, and hands me a bill for $1400.00 ($726.00 materials). I thought that was nuts - let's see the materials receipt. Materials were marked up by over $100.00, and he charged a $75.00 service charge on top of that. He charged me 7 hours of labor despite only 5 hours of work. He charged $50.00/hr for one man, instead of $70.00/hr for two.
Instead of giving his man (nice guy, good worker) the $35.00/hr split, I gave him a check for 5 hours @ $50.00/hr for $250.00. I told his man to please take the materials with him. Since we were leaving at 4:30AM the next morning, I told him we would work out the (significant) differences upon our return.  Our main concern (replace the shingles) was never completed and was rained on, the jobsite is half demo'd now, and the demo'd materials remain on our property.

While we were gone, we got a call from a process server. Yes, Joel is suing us.
