Best Businesses in Texas

I wanted to replace the incandescent can lighting around the house with LED trim kits.  I called them for a quote since they were highly rated on Yelp.  They scheduled the appointment for 2 days out.  They had to reschedule the appointment but were able to come out the next morning.

It's been raining a lot recently so everyone's shoes are covered with rain and dirt. I was impressed that the technician wore shoe covers to prevent tracking dirt around the house.

The technician spent a lot of time going around the house with me listening to my requests and making suggestions as we went.  After our walk-through, he did a general electrical safety inspection and recommended a few additional optional fixes. The technician was very knowledgeable, courteous, and explained everything that could to be done.  He also offered a few cost cutting tips, such as suggesting where to buy certain lighting fixtures.

Note: This is a review of the service call only.  I will update the review after the work is done.

I had a faucet that needed to be installed in my kitchen sink. I purchased the high-end faucet, soap dispenser and hole covers (I have a 4 hole sink but just 2 appliances to install). James came out and gave me a quote - he was very professional and friendly. The staff at the office was very communicative and friendly as well. I hired James to do the job and couldn't be happier. The price was competitive, the work was completed in a timely manner and looks great! He cleaned up all the mess (some that wasn't even his!) and left my kitchen looking great. I would definitely recommend Paschal Air and will use them again in the future. Thanks, James and Pascal Air for a job well done!

This is my second time to use Olson Electric Service.  Mike is the best!  I got prompt response from Gary, and Mike fixed my electrical problem quickly.  I highly recommend Olson to anyone who needs quality electrical work at a reasonable price.  Gloria K.

I have used Viktor's company a few times. He has installed our Tesla home wall connector, added multiple outlets inside and out of my home, and installed Samsung Frame tv. He was always on time, friendly, responded to calls and text within a timely manner, cleaned up after each project, honest, and always updated me as he went along. We were very happy with Custom Electric and would defiantly use them again.

I HIGHLY recommend Gravity Electric!  Denny was so nice, responsive, explained everything in detail, showed up when he said he would (which is huge), and had the problem solved and fixed within minutes.  I am so glad every other place I called was too busy or didn't show, I have found my new electrician for any future needs.  Thank you Denny, you're a rockstar!!

These folks did a great job on electric service required for our Pool. Attic insulation had to removed in area that Pool pump electrical needed to out. Once Pool pump was up and operational, we called to have the attic insulation repaired to original state. They came right out and did a great job moving all the disturbed insulation back in place. We are now ready for winter!  Have also used them for breaker replacement in the main service panel.
Great company.

IME did an excellent job servicing my system!

Will definitely have them back again.

Giovanni uninstalled some ceiling fans in my house. He was super responsive to my messages, offered me a great price, and was done in less than 20 minutes! 10/10 recommend.

If you are looking for Security Systems and Monitoring, I would really do your homework before deciding on C&B. We have been a loyal customer of C&B Security since they installed our system in 2005. Our system recently went down, so we inquired about upgrading. With all the competition in this space, providers are installing systems for free and making up the difference on the monthly monitoring fee. C&B told us they would update our system and keypads for $325 and to install a door bell camera and two additional outdoor cameras would be another $1,300. This is the price given to a loyal customer of 13 years? I even offered to have them increase our monthly monitoring expense in order to reduce the upfront costs associated with the cameras, C&B declined ... huh?? I had to make multiple calls into the company to get answers, schedule appointments and discuss pricing as I rarely received calls back when promised. All in all, their systems are not bad in any way .... it is just their level of customer service and their genuine care and concern for their clients. One would think that a small, private company would be more focused on customer service. C&B, unfortunately, is not. I would strongly recommend one of the larger /national Home Security providers, even if that means a higher monthly monitoring cost.

Amazing. Ran into them by chance and so glad I did. Terry was able to fix our partial power issue within 1.5 hours, including tracking down the replacement part and installing it. I couldn't be more happier with the service. I'd highly recommend and will be using them again.

Highly recommend! Very knowledgeable!

My home warranty sent Chris out to do several electrical repairs. He was on time and he called me to let me know when he was on his way. I had a ceiling fan and several recessed lights that stopped working. The wall remote for the fan went out and he replaced it with a wall switch and a new minkaAire wireless remote. Now I can control my fan/light without getting up from the couch which is way better than the setup that I previously had. After that, he quickly diagnosed the recessed lights. There is a temperature sensor that turns the lights off if they over heat. As a safety measure, the lights will not turn on if this sensor fails. He quickly replaced the sensors and the lights work perfectly.

Chris is fast, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I will definitely use him again.

UDATE INCLUDED Below! DO NOT HIRE THIS GUY! DO NOT PAY HIM IN ADVANCE!! I have to take him to court to get my money back for services he failed to provide.
!!UPDATE! HIS RESPONSE IS AGAIN MORE LIES. I have all the texts and phone call records To prove it.  He has 1 5 star review. I did not say anything to him as he left. He makes up anything he wants and pretends it's truth. RUN from this unscrupulous person. Yeah I dropped a couple f bombs in some of my responses because he frustrates you beyond reason with lies. He owes me $160 before court costs. I offered a $100 settlement and he refused. He wants to give me just $25!  I would give negative stars, if I could.
I have never had to write a review like this. You can see my posts and usually, if someone misleads a little, I let it go.

Once he has your money, he will figure out a way to get close to $100/hour.  He will fabricate fees that he never mentions when you enter a contract with him and chargEd you for parts he recycles from other jobs and claim he bought them for you.

He has yet to provide me any reciept for a light switch that was not In a package. He also asked if he could have my brand new ceiling fans, he took down.

He was so great when I called him because I had someone else not show up and I had painters coming the next day. He said his work is phenomenal and he normally charged $85/hour BUT if I pay him $500 for 8 hours IN ADVANCE, I get deal. IT IS NO DEAL!
He came 1st day and was absolutely great for 1.5hours and I gave him his check, for services in advance.
I was flustered and rushed to get him out and get more things done before I needed to get more done before painters came the next morning. HE LOVES to kill time with chattiThat's not good when you're paying by the hour!

He also wants you to give him buildings codes and access to your place without you there. This is so he can then pad his bill.. He complained about not being able to be there by himself on two counts.

He is the poster boy for bait and switch!

I wrote an incorrect hour time on my check. I called and texted him the next morning and he confirmed I have 8 hours for $500. I also have that in writing.

He also confirmed he would come at scheduled time we agreed upon for Friday, OCt. 7th at 4:30pm and I didn't contact him Again until he contacted me that Friday. He called before our scheduled time and asked if I'm back in town? I said, umm I told you I had an appointment here in Dallas that would take me to about 4pm so 4:30pm is still the time. He launched into a whole thing about the fact he is at another job and he will be late and wanted to push out the time scheduled a week in advance. I said no, not acceptable To move to another day. I have other contractors coming that need your things done and I need them done personally as well. He finally shows up 2.5 hours late. He was clearly irritated about this.

He also left for 20 minutes, to get something from his truck as I was on the phone with my fiancé the whole time and was opening the door to find him and he comes up the stairs with yet another fabricated story about being locked out. He had his phone and could text or call for the code to glass doors he so easily forgot

Had he showed up at our agreed scheduled time, he could have completed everything and our contract could have been satisfied that night. He brings out this unpackaged almond dimmer light switch and I say, what is this? He says, it matches your other outlets... umm NO it does not?! All bathroom covers outlets are white???

We exchanged words, I left him to just get the job done and had to have his mismatched switch installed to make sure the light works.

He was done at 11:03 pm and started 7:05pm,confirmed in text,)& completed 4 hours of work. I texted next day and thanked him for installing my light. He completed 5.5 hours of total work At this point.

He texts me I only have 1.5 out of 2.5 hours left!?!? I say, 7-11 is 4 hours. He responds correct but, I went shopping and you owe me $65 for supplies and 1 hour to shop.
I said no way. You already stated you do not charge for ANY trips to Home Depot.As a handyman he is there frequently and can pick up things for multiple clients on his trips. It's not my problem you procrastinated, nor do I owe a penny for a almond fixture. He is welcome to get it! He proceeded to argue with me, make up false excuses, and then tell me to just take a $25 refund for 2.5 hours of work. Of course I said NO!

He continues to change his story-change times-alter things said and I have two witnesses that directly contradict what he says. His texts, I also have photographed, and printed his texts that contradict each other. He is a liar and a scammer. DO NOT TRUST HIM OR GIVE HIM A PENNY IN ADVANCE.

If you want him for a quick job you pay AFTER he is done, 1st time great.pay in advance, he is HORRIBLE and ARGUMENTATIVE And will 100% lie

The contractor showed up late and spent maybe 20 minutes
listening to our problems to be solved and in that time fixed
a faulty 3 way switch (the easiest to solve) and left.  The more
major problems were left to our confusion as to why we called
them in the first place and why $160.00 got us to our stupidity
and distrust for all contractors in Dallas.  They are without
integrity and the expected professionalism from our community.

Jerry did a great job fixing the issue with wiring. I some upgrades on order with them will update

No show two times booked through Choice Home Warranty.
Rude and unconcerned after multiple contacts to schedule and reschedule and reschedule. Never call never use list! Wow, they need serious customer service training or get out of the business!

I hired Jim Hicks to Install 2 lights for my camera back of an envelope to be hot at all times and repair 1 dusk to dawn light and quoted me on paper $201.50.   However, he wired them to the dusk to dawn lights which was not what I wanted.  He did the back yard and fixed the light under the carport and charged me $220.00.  Then said he would be back and give me a bill.  He showed up on the 13th which was Sunday and did not call and put an illegal connector on my front light which would have gotten me a ticket from the City of Dallas. and charged me an additional $40.00.  I then had to hired another electrician to fix the problem.  He also did not wire the back correctly and they had to fix it because the wires were hanging out.  The second electrician cost me $639.99.  I beleive he owes me that money.  He did not do what he agreed to do and ripped me off and did not give me a bill.  DO NOT USE THIS GUY.  He also made me lose $55.00 on my home warranty due to his lack of respect and no bill.
