Best Electricians in Texas

Thank you Mr Vela for coming to fix our RV . He was very honest and came out after business hours and not charging us these outrageous prices we were getting else where . Thank you again . I will definitely call him back for anything else we need .

I wanted electricity run out from my electric box  to a shed on the other side of my property. I got several bids; the Cross Texas's bid landed right in the middle. I chose Cross Texas because Ronnie, the owner, seemed knowledgeable and honest and his price was very reasonable especially considering that the guys who came in a bit lower didn't strike me as professionals. Well, I am very pleased with my choice. Cross Texas got the job done fast and professionally. Ronnie took care to involve me in the process to make sure he completed the job as I wanted it. There were no surprises and communication before and during the job was excellent. I would recommend Cross Texas Electric without any reservations.

To have Eric, the owner of the business, visit us today was great. He fixed my bathroom light fixture. He even put in his own LED lights and explained to us how to save money on them. I liked how he spent time with us explaining what he did and took the time talking to us. I will definitely call on him again! It's nice to see someone take the time to talk to his customers the way Eric did! Good job Eric!

We had a light switch that, when flipped, was sparking and even smoking a tiny bit!  The burning smell was enough to scare me into finding an electrician pronto.  It was a Friday afternoon and I was afraid I'd have to wait until the following week.   Chadwick was very nice and offered to drop by later that afternoon.   Once here, he had everything fixed within a few minutes.
 I also needed a ceiling fan installed but he didn't have time to complete that job, however he offered to come out the following morning -- a Saturday -- to install it.  
 The real bonus is that Chadwick is a super nice and smart fellow whose best friend is his dog Winter -- a Standard Poodle who was also best man at his wedding!   He will clear up any misconceptions you might have about the standard poodle.  Ask him to tell you the Lab vs. Poodle hunting story!  
Great work at a reasonable price, will call again!

This review is a little belated.  Our AC went out about 9:00PM last month.  Called sFx.  Steve offered to come out right away.  We said in the morning was fine.  He asked me to send a pic of the circuit breaker I suspected was bad, so he'd be sure to have a replacement on the truck if needed. Steve showed up on time, quickly confirmed the problem,  fixed it quickly.  He's knowledgeable and polite.   Prices were fair. He offers a discount for active/retired military, which was appreciated.  I highly recommend sFx.

Very professional and responds quickly! If I need any electrical work done I will always call him! He has done numerous electrical jobs for me and haven't had one issue!! Reasonable pricing too!!

Greg is the consummate professional.  He utilized excellent communication in all phases leading up to and during the work we requested.  He arrived on time and wasted no time in knocking out the two projects we had.  One was an indoor installation and the other was an outside electrical repair that incurred due to the heavy rains from a few weeks back. Greg explained what he did and why and tested it prior to leaving. I would highly recommend Greg for your services as he is open, trustworthy and skilled in his trade.  We were very pleased with his workmanship and will use him again as we have projects.  His rates were competitive and I'm so happy to have met him and selected the correct contractor for the job!

Larry is the ultimate professional! You can't go wrong for any of your electrical needs with him.

Great service. We had them change out 5 hanging lights and one ceiling fan on 16+ ceilings. They did a great job and got it done within the quoted time. Will be using them again in the future

After living outside of McKinney proper for seven years, we are still distressed to find how difficult it is to find reliable service people.  ABR Electric is outstanding.  The electrician texted to let us know that he was on his way and showed up right on time.  The job required about 6 1/2 hours, and he worked steadily, stopping only for a short lunch break and to pick up a part.  He was friendly, knowledgeable and cleaned up after himself.  We are happy to know who to call when we need an electrician in the future.

I've actually had them out twice. There were no issues and they did their work as expected. But the reason why I'm giving them a 3 star review instead of a 5 star review is due to some of the billing games they seem to play.  Two examples .

1. Their website offers discounts on service but only if you mention the 10% discount up front at time of booking the service call. Now why would that be necessary? Think about it. The only reason I can think of is so they can make up for it by having their technicians up charge 10% when writing up the bill to make up for it. Do I have proof of that? No I don't. But why else would that be necessary? Im sure they can come up good sounding excuses as to why that would be necessary but most coupons that companies or restraunts  publish do not require notification up front before you get the bill. This company could do the same if they wanted to, but they don't. The only way  the customer can ever know they are getting a true discount is if the customer isn't required to divulge the use of a discount coupon prior to  getting billed. This is what I find a bit sleezy about this company. It reminds me of the way grocery stores forced customers to use their discount cards by insulting the public's intelligence by claiming we are getting true discounts on their groceries when we all know that all the grocery stores did was raise the price of their products prior to the coupon programs  such that by using the discount card simply got you the product at its real original old price .

2. I make it a habit to ask the minimum service fee for a company to come out and provide an estimate. I used this company because their trip fee was reasonable (I consider reasonable which at $35 is very reasonable.) We'll, on their second time out, I never did ask the service desk scheduler about their minimum trip charge cause I already knew it from the first time, but that being said , this was a separate and independent service call from the first one, so I thought I would go ahead and play it safe by confirming their minimum trip charge to provide me an estimate. They told me $155 this time . I was shocked so I had to call in to their service desk to get clarification cause if not, these guys were going to potentially charge me $155 just for a estimate. The lady at the service desk confirms it is only $35 and when I aks her why her workers are tellling me differently , she says the $155 min trip charge would only apply if the workers were to have to spend time using their equipment tools in order to diagnose the problem in order to get an estimate.  When I asked the workers why the heck they are quoting me only the $155 estimate without mentioning  at all about the $35 trip charge option , they became very extremely uncomfortable in an embarrassed way. They had no explanation and did not give me a direct answer . When I then suggested to them that it appeared their company would have charged me $155 trip charge  had I not called HQ about it , not only did they not counter the suggestion , it totally looked like they were embarrassed and their body language was one of heads sunk, a somber look of  I'm sorry. They told me some thing like we only work here and do what we are told. This looks really bad IMHO . I kind of felt sorry for the guys, they seemed like good hearted guys who didn't  like it any more than I did.  

So in a nutshell , I think they are good company in  terms of their service and their know how, and I would hire them again,  but you might want to confirm your minimum trip charge when the workers arrive if you might be only needing a second estimate or a minor repair which might otherwise only cost less than $155 .

Tayler made his way out to my house during this past freeze, and redid 10 electrical outlets as well as moving over a breaker that kept flipping off my entire house.

He did great work, and I have him scheduled to come out and upgrade my entire breaker box in the next few weeks.

We called Mike, and he said he could stop by on his way back from another job. We had multiple issues .and he quickly did troubleshooting and repaired all issues. Didn't charge $10 for $1 switches like a lot of contractors do, and a VERY fair price for his trip charge.
Additionally, his knowledge of not just hardware but electrical infrastructure was amazing.
Mike is now our go-to for any future electrical work.

Quick reply for the requested service and quote was on par with others. They were on time and did a great job on my project.  Highly recommend.

Great service and Wesley went beyond the call of duty to make sure everything went smoothly.  Our meter had to be replaced and repairs done to our connection.  We had to deal with inspectors, permits, our service provider and W3 Electric was right there handling the details and walking us through this maze.  We now have them for any futures needs.  Heartily recommended!

They installed all my fans in my first house for a great price! They were very knowledgeable and informative and gave plenty of tips and energy saving ideas to help the cps bill! Be sure to give them a call for any electrical and remodeling needs!

I placed a query on HomeAdvisor for an electrician to take take care of some lighting I would need installed on the exterior of my home.  One of the companies that called me was Electrician For Hire.  John was the guy's name.  He called me at 8 on a Saturday evening and we talked about the project that I needed done.  10-15 minutes later, John said he would have a guy out to the house the latest they can on Friday at 4pm in order to take a look and come up with a quote.  He said they stop work at 4:30.  No problem.

Fast forward to Friday.  At 4:10pm no one had shown up so I called John to ask about his technician.  He said they weren't supposed to be there until 5pm tonight.  He said it was in his notes.  However, in the Saturday discussion he told me his guys don't work past 4:30 and he asked me if his guy could be at the house at 4.  I was good with 4 because I was leaving town at 5.  I let it go for the moment as he said he would get someone out to the house now.  His technician calls and says he'll be happy to come out tomorrow (Saturday) in order to look over the project and deliver a quote.  I explained to the technician that this was outside the terms of agreement from John.  I told the technician to disregard and that I would contact John to cancel.

I sent a text message to John stating that I was disenchanted with the fact that his technician didn't even know about it until moments earlier, which means I was forgotten about, anyway.  I let him know that I will be looking for a new and more reliable electrician to handle my project.  John's response:  You Go Girl.  When I called to accost him of the disrespect, he stated, Look, I am making light of the situation.  Don't be weird about it.

Can John do the work? I don't know.  He can talk the talk, though, and make you feel like he's got your project covered.  Myself, I do not give my business to those who lie, forget, change times, or flat out disrespect.

My suggestion to those needing an electrician in my area, find a more reputable one.  Leave the kids out of your home projects.
