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.

Came out, and gave me a very fair estimate on running a commercial 240V line, great service found a solution

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.

Answered the phone promptly and could give me a quote on the phone. The job was easily booked and Steve the electrician that came out was very pleasant and explained thoroughly what he was doing. Highly recommend!

Philip was incredibly professional, super timely and very personable!  We needed a chandelier hung from our vaulted ceiling.  It was a task we had neither the equipment or expertise to accomplish without physical or structural damage.  He had it done in short order with several height adjustments while being guided by my wife on FaceTime. He was very patient and accommodating!  Highly recommend him.  We will be using him again when we replace our  ceiling fixtures in our under beach house deck!

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.

Very easy to get an appointment.  Arrived on schedule, was very professional and explained the problem and the fix.  Pricing was fair and reasonable and the job was done right. Performed some minor electrical repairs and an AC system check. Nice to have a dependable neighborhood owner/operator.  Definitely recommend

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.

$300 to unclog a kitchen sink is excessive.  Nothing out of the ordinary, simple food clog.  Pricing was based on the neighborhood, how expensive your house looks, and what you are willing to pay.  Once they are there, it's hard to say no due to the trip charge if you don't do the work.

I'm giving the service 4-stars, not due to the work, but because of the price.  I would rate them 5/5 for the work done.  The techs were very professional and did an excellent job (although they did leave some trash behind in a trash bag) and there was no drywall damage.  They were friendly and explained all of the work they were doing.  The price was a bit much.  I had a bathroom vanity light installed and a recessed light installed which cost about $750.  Plus I had to pay to have them come and provide an estimate for the work (they did not do an inspection of my house like another reviewer stated).  Because of the price, I likely won't use the service again.  However, if you can afford it, they do an excellent job.

I wish there was an option to give no stars because totally disgusted is more my sentiments.

We know a commercial electrician and went with Heights Electric because we trusted our commercial electrician's recommendation. We should have headed the poor review here when we read it but we thought we'd give Charlie and his team the benefit of the doubt especially because they are a local business. Here's my advice to others: DO NOT HIRE HEIGHTS ELECTRIC.

His workmen were definitely polite and capable. They did a great job at not tearing up our home. However, the billing was underhanded and shifty.

1. They arrived later than discussed. No phone call, just arrived late.
2. 2 workers, 1 who does all of the work and the other that runs to the truck and back.
3. Charlie charged for his own showing up and standing around.
4. We were charged an hour for the Free quote when it was their doing that they came in and took the old fixture down to see what they might be dealing with.
5. We were quoted a price range and ended up having to negotiate above the highest end of the range. Charlie claims it was because the job turned out to be harder than expected and they were working late hours and we were actually getting a discount. (may I remind you, they showed up late and the timing was understood when we were quoted)
6. If the job was harder/was going to cost more, that should have been stated when they realized this. Several times we asked if everything was alright and the response was yes.
7. Our bill didn't even have my name right. Not even just a misspelling- totally different names. Really.
8. We heard a loud crack and there's a very good possibility that our nice fixture was broken at that time but we were not in the same room so there's no telling.
9. Seeing as the fixture was damaged, the job is still not done. They offered to come back and install for an additional $100. No thank you.

Our father is a contractor and a former EE- it's too bad he doesn't live even remotely close. When you give a quote, you work in the possibility of a job being harder than it should be or you let the customer know at that time, not at the end when you charge.

We've had great luck with other area businesses but will not be using Heights Electric again.  Completely unprofessional, underhanded, and nothing the Heights should be proud of.
