Best Electricians in Texas

Yelp's localization does a disservice to contractors since the best of the best probably don't live in your immediate neighborhood.

John Henshaw and his crew qualify as the best of the best. Plus, he's a master electrician. (see tiny.cc/jhenshaw)

Now, let's be honest, We all want the most for our pennies and we may think that hiring a handyman to install simple things like fans make economic sense.  Think again. Hiring a licensed electrician is not that much more (Last i checked Henshaw Electric charged $150 per fan; the half-wit handyman I hired through craigslist charged $100 per fan. SInce I had to get Henshaw to re-hang said fan it actually cost me $250), He also grounded all the plugs in & around my computer and installed a surge suppressor in the electric box to safeguard all my stuff.

And yes, a licensed guy will charge a few bucks more but they are worth every penny. I can sleep at night knowing my fan or stove or whatever isn't going to burst into flames.

I've hired Ramon Umana twice since we went into contract for our new home.  He's dependable, professional, and courteous.  He emails to set up appointments too.  Ramon has rewired a number of outlets in my home, installed new lighting, and repaired faulty work done by another electrician.  I recommend him!

Double Diamond was a pleasure to deal with. Billie Vaughn does top notch work and I will use him anytime I get the opportunity. Highly recommended.

Needed an electrician at the last min. and Ray was available within a few short hrs. He fixed my electrical problem, installed a ceiling fan for me, and gave me helpful advice/suggestions. I didn't shop around for price but his fees are reasonable in my opinion. Thanks for your service Ray!

Jamie was a God Sent. He did a great job he is quick and fair.

Very quick turnaround with great quality. Ben was very professional and helpful.

Quick response.  Showed up when they said they would.  Found the problem and fixed it.  Also, cheaper diagnostic fee than others in the area.  Can't ask for much more than that.

Phillip did an excellent job on our request. Professional accommodating, respectful. We cannot recommend him enough as he went above and beyond for our needs. Also an animal lover  we will definitely call you again.

I have used Rubio Electric many times and consistently gotten great customer service. It's run very professionally. I always get a quick callback from the owner, Justin, and he always gets over to help quickly. He is polite, follows up to make sure everything is ok, cleans up, sends a clear, professional invoice, and has never failed to do anything but excellent work. I recently needed some work and not only did he promise a start time, I got a confirmation phone call and text confirming it. This time two of his employees came. They confirmed their arrival, were polite, clean, extra helpful, gave me additional clear instructions for what I needed to do, and were very nice and friendly - and professional - to deal with.  If only more contractors could do the same. Justin and his team installed Ring devices (some walls had to be opened up), and did other interior work. I will always use and recommend them in the future.

Shane was great and really worked within my budget. I had his guys add some outdoor electrical outlets, fans, and more. They Ensured it was water tight, used good materials and followed code. I appreciate the hard work his guys did, they were here until 8:30PM to ensure they completed the job, and did it right! I'll be using Murphy's electric again.

I dealt with Ralph at REM electric and was so impressed with his customer service.  Highly recommend Ralph and REM electric for their expertise,  professionalism and ETHICAL approach to business.  They helped us with our back up generator. VERY REASONABLE. I made the mistake of calling 2 other electricians, before I finally found REM. Learn from my mistake.

I had the line from my electrical pole to my meter going into my house ripped completely out when a tree from the storm fell. Mr Baily came promptly, and had it done in a very short time. Very efficient, prompt,cleaned up after himself, thoughtful, and very reasonable . Talked to about a few repairs to my home and to rentals I have. He defiantly knows his stuff and I will use him again and have no problem recommending his company to other.

I called Van to help me with my new panel. He was funny and very helpful.
He has a master electrician and got the job done very quick. I would hire him anytime and would highly recommended him to anyone.

Attention to detail. Super clean location upon completion. I have had multiple jobs done and without a doubt, I won't go with anyone else. Reasonable pricing and again great work.

I used to use John Henshaw exclusively years ago. He helps me fix up the wiring in my old apartment just enough so that my computers were protected. I was sad to see he'd moved on to focus on commercial projects and  happy for him that he is doing so well at it.

Very nice serviceman. He arrived on time and was professional. Work was done efficiently. Charge was outrageously high and I will not call them again for this reason.

Be careful, their estimate is not free even though they tell you it's free in the phone.

to run a cable to my garage....... their estimate was $8,000 plus.

it's a spam business and they live on the estimate fe

As a resident of the Heights, it's important for me to support local businesses.  However, occasionally this backfires and you feel like you were stolen from.  This is the case I had with Heights Electric.  

I had two light fixtures that were out and either needed to be fixed or replaced.  Whatever was cheapest.  They decided they needed to be replaced, which was fine, and told me they would have something jn stock or could get something similar at the store and install it.  Okay, sounds fair.  Yet somehow installing two simple lights equated to 6 billable hours?!?!!  How is that possible??  I'll tell you how its possible.  Show up in a truck with two people and have one person stand around and watch the other person do all the work and then bill double for it.  

Also while you're at it, charge $95 an hour to determine whether a $30 light fixture can be fixed or just replaced.  If you can't figure it out in 10 minutes, lets just buy a new one people!

I'll give one hour for a real electrician to take down the light and determine if it can be fixed easily, possibly one more hour to buy 2 new lights just up the street, and perhaps one hour to install both of them.  3 hours MAX.  

Never mind the fact they never showed up when they said they would (sometimes late with no phone call, sometimes early saying they're waiting out front).

No thanks.  Completely unprofessional.  I will not be using them ever again.
