Best Businesses in Texas

Great company, reasonably priced, very good response time. I needed a 220 volt 40 amp breaker. In a completed 2 story house that creates an issue. They had to drill into my house, run new wires up the side of the house across the attic, back down to where the breaker box is and drill back into the house. They made sure the wire in the attic was out of the way, We appreciate the extra effort. The crew was polite and professional.  We definitely recommend this company. We will use them for all of our electrical 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.

I called Ray a couple weeks ago to get a quote on replacing an electrical panel.  Then I went out of town for a while.  The problem was worse when I got back and I called Ray back to let him know.  He came out the next morning and replaced the panel, and he honored the original quote.  He even came back the next day to replace a part that was behind the meter and not part of the original estimate just because he thought it needed to be replaced.  I will definitely call Ray again if I have any more electrical needs!

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!

Great service, very helpful.  Phillip was very professional, did exactly what we needed with permitting and a service entrance.  Quick to get it done, too!

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.

The company is great.  Came out to give me an estimate to insulate my attic and gave me several options.  I had the Radiant Barrier installed. They were booked for the next few weeks but Luis got me in earlier because of a cancellation.  The guys went out and did a terrific job.  They were very neat, clean and efficient.  Very respectful of my home.  They should me the finished work and it really did look good.  Luis called to follow up with me and make sure that I was pleased with the work.  I would recommend this company and would certainly use them again.

This company STEALS!!!! over priced on all of their services.
they don't give any prices over phone
so they dispatch someone to look at the issue and before starting give you a very high prices so you will not accepted
for example they asked  512 just to install a kitchen faucet

Set yourself on fire before ever doing business with this John Henshaw clown.

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.

This poor old guy really should just stop and enjoy his retirement.  I would be surprised if his license is current.  REALLY SURPRISED!  and VERY DISAPPOINTED in the licensing procedure & requirements.

Our experience was EXACTLY as everyone has said!   We used this company because our Realtor recommended him!  (Someone didn't do her due diligence!!!)

THERE WAS NOTHING PROFESSIONAL ABOUT ANY OF MY ENCOUNTERS WITH CHARLIE.

I had sent 3 emails explaining that we wanted a quote on some items picked up during the home inspection on a property we are in the option period to buy.  I asked in bold letters whether the quote was free or whether the fee would be applied towards the work.  He never replied to any of my emails.  He had trouble finding the first one, which is why I sent & re-sent the same information.  He asked me to email him so he'd have all the details in writing.  I attached the inspection report each time.

When I reached him by phone Thursday afternoon, he thought he could come out the next day.  He never called.  When I called him Saturday, he thought he might be able to make it, but didn't.   He was very hard to pin down on time, so I sent him an email saying that we'd go ahead with his suggestion of meeting on Sunday afternoon at 2pm, and I wrote in bold letters that he should contact us if his plans changed.  He left me a message at noon saying that he'd need to push the job back a bit.  I called back at 1pm and left a message.  He never called back.  When I reached him at 2:15, he was out to dinner with his family.  We releashed the Realtor's assistant, waiting at the house since 2pm.

Our option period ends tonight at midnight.  Charlie and his right hand man finally showed up -- late -- this afternoon and bumbled around for hours.   There is a very entertaining video of them taking forever to replace a GFCI outlet with the power on!  It's as though neither of them had never seen -- or worked with -- live current before!  (Charlie claims he is a master electrician!)

Despite my list of items, which included checking a light over the stairs, Charlie showed up without any ladders or extension grippers and was wearing casual attire, not work clothes.  

When the bumbling finally ended, Charlie claimed he had conducted an inspection.  He had not, and he had not been asked to.  His bill was $450, and all he had done -- literally, all he had done -- was 1) call out the color of the recessed light canister in the ceiling (our Realtor's assistant knew silver canisters were OK against insulation, but Charlie didn't), 2) entertain us by replacing that GFCI outlet and 3) change that light bulb over the stairs by use of some creative acrobatics.   I wrote him a check for $250, and he left disgusted.  I think he got off easy!  I should have called the cops on him for representing himself to be an electrician!
