Best Businesses in Austin, TX
Rodney of Aerial Electric is a great electrician. He's thorough, highly knowledgeable, and easy-going. He works carefully, but he's also quick. He had several opportunities to do additional work, but he pointed out the ways I could save money by doing the work myself. Rodney is also happy to explain everything he's doing as he's doing it, which is a good education for me. I'm not going to risk any other electrician; he's the only one I'll consider.

A few months ago, one of my my hard-wired smoke alarms went particularly insane over a 12 hour period, and I could NOT make it happy no matter how many fresh batteries I fed it. Exasperated as the ear-splitting beeps shifted into constant mode, I jumped on Yelp to find I-didn't-know-who-or-what to come make it stop, no matter the consequences. Primos had good reviews so I gave David a call, and I caught him in the car on his way somewhere. He couldn't come for a few hours by which time I thought I'd surely have offed myself in desperation.
Acknowledging my pain with no promise of anything for himself, he very calmly talked me down and walked me through each step to at least make the noise stop. He spent about 30 minutes on the phone with me as I struggled to wrench the machine from my ceiling and then, mercifully, press the button a final time to hear it whir its blessed death rattle. We talked about replacing all of them (it was time), but there was covid, and I could live without one of my 5 alarms. He didn't pressure me or ask for any money though I offered. But I did put him in my contacts so I wouldn't forget him when the time came.
A few weeks ago, 2 more alarms died in quick succession (but I knew what to do to stop the madness!) so I decided it was time. I gave David a call, and we agreed on the 10 year machines with 10 year lithium batteries. To be honest, I didn't compare prices--he'd helped me out, and I felt loyalty to him. He did say he gave me a discount, and I do know these things are not cheap. He installed them, and he says they are better quality than what I had (they say they'll last 2-4 years longer, and I'm not expecting to go away for the weekend and return to find my cat in a straight jacket from 48 hours of ear-screeching torment b/c one battery went dead in a HARD WIRED system). I am very pleased with him and his work. He was flexible, and he's a very nice guy.
I haven't had a go-to electrician in this house, but I do now. He handles all kinds of electrical issues, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. In fact, I already have to a few other people besides yourself.
It's so rare in this age and in this social climate for a stranger to just step up and be nice with no promise of reward. That used to be what people did, but it's been a long time since I've experienced that. Perhaps that's why his kindness was so memorable and I was so grateful for it. Such an attitude should always be rewarded. And he just happened to be good at what he does as well.

This is a wonderful company. Everyone who works there is not only good at his work, but also kind, friendly, and helpful. They have done the full wiring on two homes in which I have lived, and they did a great job.
My elderly husband had a flat tire on the highway near A-1 Electric. It was in the middle of a Texas summer, and he had just gotten out of his truck to examine the problem, when two of the men from A-1 drove by. They immediately turned their truck around and insisted that they would change the tire for him. It was done in just a very few minutes, but it was such a kind act, that we were both very impressed.

This is the first time I've used yelp for home services and I am glad I did because their service was just great! Although the electrical service I needed for my place was not that complicated, I definitely needed an electrician that had the expertise to properly wire and install the light sockets on my kitchen and living room. They look just great! Great service at a very reasonable price!

We are in the process of purchasing an investment property. After obtaining the property inspection report, I emailed Greg in the middle of the night asking if he could visit the property and look at some electrical and handyman work that might be needed. To my surprise, he emailed back within hours in the middle of the night and followed up with a phone call in the morning. We set up an appointment for the next day. I still haven't heard back from any of the other companies I emailed or called. After reviewing the property with Greg, I now feel very comfortable moving forward with our purchase. He didn't try to promote any unnecessary upgrades or products.

Ford Electric came out promptly when we had an electrical issue. He got our electricity back up and running within hours. When it was evident there were bigger issues (most likely stemming from Texas 2020 winter storm) he resolved the issues quickly. He even took care of our other electrical concerns while he was here and everything runs like a charm now.

I needed some electrical work dropped in for a new hot tub. Some neighbors referred me to Rusty. I called him on a Sunday thinking I would leave a message and get a follow up call during the work week. Nope. I got a human on the phone! He came out the very next day to review the job, provided a very reasonable price and I was placed on the schedule.
The install date had to be moved several times due to the concrete contractor and the spa company. Each time, he was understanding of the rescheduling. When d-day finally arrived, he arrived with his crew earlier than expected and jumped right on it.
Rusty was communicative, did what he said he would do and did a great job. I highly recommend this company!!

I've used Ernest Olson for all my homes that I built. I never had an issue with him. Great service. Always kept his schedule and at a reasonable price. Never had an electrical warranty call on any of the homes he did either.
151 Las Flores Dr, Wimberley, TX 78676
Chadwick stepped up to the plate. Our sub-panel power breaker went out and within an hour it was fixed. Had them change the main one for good measure as well.
Thank you for such a fast turnaround!

Terrible company, main guy, Chris is disrespectful. Residential company trying to do commercial work!

I work for a large association management company and decided I would give this smaller contractor an opportunity to shine and gain ALOT of work if they did a good job, well so much for trying to help the little guy. Two months ago i ordered lighting for a mailbox cluster at one of the communities I manage, and the job is still not complete. From day one I have had to call for an update, not once have they provided good customer service by keeping me informed and all I have received is excuse after excuse for why things aren't done. Once the pole is installed, I get told it will be another $650 to run power to the light. What legitimate contractor does not confirm power as step one to a bid?? They have been an absolute disaster to work with and I would not recommend them to change a light bulb, much less do any electrical work.
