Best Businesses in Texas

Too many things have gone wrong with Tom Mcnutt. His work ethic and professionalism are less than desirable. I wouldn't recommend the to anyone. I hear he has had a lot negative change in his personal life that effecting his work.

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.

Pool Lights had gone out...Called J and L..told me it would be 10 days before they got to me.   Called me the next day and told me someone could come out now.   They fixed the lights, were very pleasant to deal with, fair with pricing, and fixed a few other minor problems with no charge.    Great job!

When someone exceeds your expectations you just want to share your experience. Philip was very courteous and knowledgeable. Everyone needs a go-to person for every type of house repair. Phillip is now my electrician.

I have used other franchised companies, but Phillip was much more reasonable. I wish I called him for my 1st electrical job as I spent hundreds more than I should have.

I am very happy to have found a good electrical repairman that is professional but fairly priced.

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 called this business and the gentleman (not sure if he's the owner or staff member) immediately answered. Unfortunately, he sounded as if he were obviously busy which is fine but it felt as if I was bothering him. We decided that he would come out at his convenience which would be the following week. I thought about the call, our conversation and how I felt. I began searching for another electrician or handyman. The call was made and the interaction was the complete opposite of my previous experience. I scheduled an appointment for the next day and immediately called the gentleman respectfully to cancel my appointment. I didn't get an answer so I proceeded to send a text message but I never received a callback or follow up. He should've at least returned my call or text to inquire about why I was canceling and then offer an apology. That never happened.

3Guys Insulation did a fine job at my house - no complaints with their work, BUT the crew and customer service was awful. I expect my property to be respected. After my job or during, I am not sure, the crew discharged their equipment onto a pile of antique bricks - 100 years old that we had rescued from our home project. When I brought it to the attention of the owners - he immediately blamed my superintendent. I expected 3 Guys to take responsibility for their actions and apologize. I am devastated that they damaged my bricks, but the response was equally unprofessional. I do not recommend.

I just wanted to thank everyone again for the excellent experience I had using your company for the 1st time. I called another company initially who said it would be 2 weeks before they could come out. I then remembered seeing your ad in the Heights newspaper.
On my initial call I went over what I needed done (fix/replace 5 under cabinet puck lite sets w/3 easy to replace fluorescent type lites and 2 recessed lites).
UW set a time for 3 workdays later to meet me at my house; they called 30 mins. ahead of our appointment so I could meet them on our scheduled time (11-1).
My UW technician was very pleasant, prompt, not pushy, and patient w/my questions. After our initial discussion of what I wanted done, he assessed everything and even provided a 40 pt. whole house/electrical box inspection to further provided me w/information of what he suspected may be problem areas in my home already - which I knew I had. After 40 mins. he wrote up 3 proposals and prices from his inspection and my to-do list.
I selected one of the 3 on his list and he went right to work. Of course I did not pick the best proposal, which included possible problems that could arise in the future but again there was no high sales pressure from him, which I appreciated very much. And to UW's credit they gave me a copy of the proposals for future reference so I may call them back and finish everything up at my convenience.
After 2.5 hours the job was completed to my satisfaction. On my drive back to work that afternoon, I received a followup call (to my surprise) and was asked how things went and was there anything else that they could do for me. I gave the caller a stellar report on his employees, thanked him for all of their help and relayed that in this day and age it is wonderful to find true customer service skills being relayed though out a whole company -- all 3 people I dealt with were the best I've had the pleasure/experience with in a long time.

Thanks again!

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.

They came out quickly and told me in advance of the cost.   They fixed my problem quickly and did it all on a Saturday.   Will definitely call them again.

Tried to reach the company for 1 week, left numerous messages when their phones were working . Never received a call back.

If they can't even answer their phones, I doubt they can complete a job properly and if you had trouble you would never be able to reach them.

DO NOT USE.

Husband actually called this place by accident - I asked him to call the electrician on Heights Boulevard not Heights Electric. What a debacle. Two clueless individuals showed up and bumbled around. Had to get owner involved to find a solution to problem. Repair quit working the next day. More bumbling around and work unsatisfactory. Will get a real electrician tomorrow to fix the problem and whatever these bozos did.
