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.

Ramon Umana and his crew are professionals. I am completely satisfied with this recent work: replace regular duplex receptacles with tamper resistant receptacles at dining, living and upstairs bedrooms; relocate fan switch in bathroom, add switch in attic, add receptacle in attic, replace switches in upstairs compute closet, bathroom and outside laundry; add gfci receptacle at kitchen; install disconnect for water heater; install gfci at outside back door and inside and outside laundry room. Whew!

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.

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!

Phillip was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to assist me with all my questions for the electricity in my new house. Highly recommend him and I will definitely be using him in the future!!

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.

Called to check out an electrical issue in my house and he was prompt, extremely efficient and very reasonable on his charges.

I would recommend him to anyone needing electrical repair.

I hired 3 Guys Last March to remove existing Cellulose insulation and replace it. Luis recommended Fiberglass. I made it clear that insulation was not my actual concern, but that my issue was in having the insulation circulating inside the living space because my attic had never been sealed properly allowing insulation to pull though the walls when the AC/Heat runs and I was having health issues because of it. Additionally I wanted to add some plywood decking to a portion of the attic for storage. Luis said it would take three days, Remove Clean, Seal and Replace. He said he would add guards at the soffit vents also which I did not have and needed. Overall seemed very knowledgeable. I was very excited. I had saved a very long time to have this done. WELL..... At the end of the first day... the team left and I asked what time they would be back tomorrow.. He said, oh, we're done. I just thought, well ok. So it was a week or so later that I went up in the attic and noticed that they did not use plywood that I was charged for, but chipboard. Also they had decked part of the area with some rustic boards that were stored in the attic that were actually part of a shelving system. They didn't ask me at all. Frustrated, but let it pass. But then I removed some boards that I had previously put in an area for storage and had boxes sitting on them. The guys at the time of service said thy did not need to be moved that they would run the hose under them and clean that way. Well, they did not. When I removed them there was still old insulation there.. SO I called Luis and he sent them out to redo that area. They also at that time added the guards at the vents which they forgot to do the first time. I mentioned the plywood also but Luis never addressed that.  THEN I started noticing that I was now having all this new fiberglass insulation all over my house. It is SOOO MUCH WORSE. We went in the attic and started removing the boards they had put in the attic BECAUSE they laid them directly on Electrical wires AND guess what ABSOLUTELY NO insulation under all the areas they put decking. AND they did not seal the attic!!!! Maybe a few light fixtures, but missed several and did not seal ANY of the top caps along the Walls. AND THEN...It warmed enough to start using the AC, and I started noticing it shutting off so I called MY ac guy... my ducts were collapsed!! they had broken several straps that hold the ducting up. And This was all brand new the ducts had also just been replaced for this same reason. They were full of all that old insulation dust. So they were not damaged when those guys were in there. This duct repair cost me $550.  I emailed Luis twice now with photos and asked him to come back and seal my attic. He has not responded at all.

Universal Home Experts...interesting company! So it turns out, you can negotiate the proposal they give you. I just read thru the reviews here and had to laugh because they tried to rip me off also. An electrician named Brett P. came out to my house to install 2 electric wall sconces in my media room. His estimate came in at $512. Too high! I explained to Brett the Restoration Hardware sconces were $169 a pc and I wasn't paying more for the installation than I paid for the sconces. He said, okay...I understand. How about $327? I was like...wait...what? Where do they come up with these numbers and why did they originally want $185 more? If Brett could do the job for $327 the whole time, why did he increase the price on me? Could I have negotiated further? SO WEIRD!!! I paid the $327. Brett did a great job but GEEZ! Who wants to haggle with someone in their home? Would not hire again based on feeling like they were trying to take advantage of me. There are too many other good companies out there to pick from to deal with that!

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

There are several locations, so I can't say which one because I'm not sure...but I want to thank Baron for his awesome professionalism when he came out to my home. He was very knowledgeable and explained a lot of things to me. Although my current issue couldn't be solved by him, he pointed me into the right direction, proper steps, and I feel safe and positive about this. He even came to my door with his own shoe covers, although I had some waiting for him. This really impressed me. Thank you Baron, at Mister Sparky Electrical...Happy Holidays!!!

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 place is a complete disgrace.  They charged us, then took the marginally working piece of equipment and never returned it (although they made several appointments to come back and do so, they just never showed up.)   So for 140$ they made the problem much worse.
