Best Businesses in Texas

Twice I have used these guys.  Spoke to Johnny explained my problem. My Ring door bell video not workin.  Spent hours with Ring.  They told me to replace my transformer which I did not know existed.  After weeks of speaking to handy man guys who told me it was a two hour job I called Cedar  park electric.  Johnny gave me an appointment the next day.  David came over and replaced my door chime and transformer .  One hour.  It all works perfect.  Ring connected by itself.  Now I have a door bell with video again.  Feel really happy.  Thank you Cedar Park Electric.

What a great company! We needed electric installed on a large garage we built at our home, and chose this company because of their website; how professional it was, their emphasis on excellent work that is not farmed out to other people , not to mention their emphasis on family values. True, a company can say anything and end up being horrible, but in this case, we are so happy we chose them for this project. Owner Josh inspired confidence by arriving when he said he would, communicating along the way, and ensuring we were on the same page with our expectations. His employees showed up on time both mornings of the project and never stopped working until quitting time. They were quick, thorough, detail oriented, super nice and helpful. Pricing was fair, and when you factor in not having a single glitch and not having to micromanage the work, it's almost a bargain. We would use this company for any future electrical project and refer them to anyone needing electrical work.

We've already utilized JT&L's services twice within the last month and have been really happy with JTs electrical work. I got to meet both JT and Laurie and they're both professional but also very friendly and personable which is something you don't find too often.

JT fixed electrical issues that resulted from another company doing a very poor electrical installation at my mother-in-laws rental property (see my other review for who not to use) which JT was able to RESOLVE VERY QUICKLY and he also fixed an electrical issue at her primary residence. I'm happy support this business not only because of the quality of work at a fair price but also because it's veteran-owned. I'll definitely be reaching out to JT&L for any future needs!

Responsive, trustworthy, and reasonable. What more can you ask for? I have used them twice now for electrical work and will likely use them again in the future.

The ABSOLUTE BEST electricians anywhere. Clift is the owner. He got me back up and running after two other companies couldn't figure out what was wrong. Then another time he sent his guys over and they were so polite, fast, tidy, and fixed all my wonky outlets. I can't say enough about this company. He jumped to help my neighbors  who I was scared for during the ice storm. After the power was restored, her living room electric was blown. He worked many hours getting her up and going.
This company has been around a long time...well established with the old timers around Pflugerville...that says a lot.
Call Clift...he can fix it!

Mr.  Ward gave me an honest quote.  I had gotten quotes from at least 5 different electricians.  He came on time and got the work done in a few hours.  I paid exactly what he quoted me.  He is professional and works honestly and patiently.  I would recommend him to anyone!!!

Do not use this company!!! Beware! They made 8 large holes in our ceiling and did not tell us, and did not fix them! Hired them to install under cabinet lighting. Our back splash and drywall was removed and our attic is open access. Should have been a simple job. Ended up with holes in our ceiling AND cut up cabinets! Ultimately costing us thousands extra to fix the damage caused by Texas Platinum Electric!!

I called Ronnie for help with completing electrical work that an inspector said needed to be done while I was trying to sell our house. He came out the same day and completed the work quickly and efficiently! Definitely recommend!

I had a fuse blow out on me. This is way beyond my electrical skills. On memorial weekend, Saturday Jacob help me replace it. Thank you!!

We were without water for days and thought maybe it was an electrical issue. Varnell Electric came out and fixed it. The well company said they had to have him come back out and fix it because it wasn't in fact fixed. Okay, things happen, maybe something got tripped. We were thrilled to have water again, and went to bed excited for a hot shower the next morning. The following morning, our water wasn't working again. We wanted to make sure it wasn't an electrical issue with the well pump to so we asked Chad to come back only to check his electrical work. My husband and I were both at work, so we weren't there to supervise Chad (totally didn't think we would need to, he's a nice guy.) He came out to our house, checked his work, but then proceeded to troubleshoot. He did not call us to ask if we would like him to proceed, he just did it. He decided to check the water filters (something we do all the time, and the job of the well company - not the electrician). He diagnosed the problem as something with the filters (again, something we did not want him to do, the well company would have charged significantly less). He charged us $250 for this trip where we really just wanted him to check his work... Not go ahead and continue to troubleshoot and charge us for that on top of what we had already paid him the first time.

My advice: make sure you know exactly what he will be doing for you, get a quote, and ask him not to go above and beyond without letting you know and giving you the option to decline that.

I needed a couple ceiling fans replaced and contacted Avery Handyman Project due to their previous reviews and they fact they were in my neighborhood. A couple messages later and I was scheduled for that same day. Lewis was very professional and polite, arrived on time and cleaned up when he was done. I wouldn't hesitate to contact AHP for my next project.

Very professional and friendly.  Great customer service and communication.  Not the cheapest but I don't want cheap when it comes to wiring my house!  Worth every penny.

Very professional and responds quickly! If I need any electrical work done I will always call him! He has done numerous electrical jobs for me and haven't had one issue!! Reasonable pricing too!!

I highly recommend Don, owner, with Alum Creek Electric. We were having trouble with our electric turning off & on...tripping the main breaker. I found Don's company through the Nextdoor App. I called him after hours and he was here within an hour. Don checked all of our breaker boxes and was able to detect the problem. Once the repairs were done, he even gave us some tips on a future update that the property will need. We are going to stay warm tonight thanks to Don!

Steven did all of the electrical work for us for a kitchen remodel. He was always on time and did a clean and fast job wiring and installing the light fixtures. He took the time to answer all my questions and provided great feedback. All the lighting looks great. Would definitely recommend and hire him  again for future projects.

Our house went dark .
we called around  for a electrician only  one responded  that  they could do it that day
within the hour the technican arrived  after checking everything  out he told us it was a  blown breaker  .fixed in minutes  with a new part from  lows .
he was on his way to a conferance when we called and as he solved  the problem in a matter of minutes he said there will be *** no charge ***
not many bisiness  give you a free ride expecially  in a emergency situation  like that

we cannot express enough thanks to J R  Ketter  for his  kind act .

this company is on our  list to call when needing someone with  electrical expertise,   put the company on your list as well.

Great guy he's very knowledgeable we had a light fixture installed from someone on handy that wasn't working and called Mike he fixed it right away and has done a number of small electrical jobs around the house.

Excellent company. i called and Christian came out and repaired several electrical problems in my house including removing a defective ceiling light fixture and installing a new one.
He was professional, courteous, informative and did excellent work.
I highly recommend him and will call him anytime i need help with electrical problems. i have already recommended him to my family and friends.
On top of his excellent work, he is a delightful person and respectful of  his customers home and property

Tried to contact Remedy Electric today for a rough quote for some electric work that we needed done in our backyard.  We had an above ground pool installed and required a junction box at the sight of the pool.  

I was told by Teresa, and I quote, We do not provide free Estimates,the fee will be 50.00 dollars This will allow the electrician to Determine what is needed to give you the price, If you accept the Estimate, at the Compilation of Project the 50.00 Dollars will be removed if charged.

I'm really shocked.  Of the twenty-two companies with certified and bonded professionals I contacted, today, all of them gave me a rough quote, and every single one of them offered to come and provide a true quote at no charge.  I'm just really surprised that this company refuses to be competitive in its own market!  

There's no way I would ever entertain future work with a company so disinterested in garnering my business.  To not even _try_ to offer something... it just smacks of being completely disinterested, and that's not a good sign in a field where attention to detail, and commitment to perfection is vital!  

Strangely surprising, and a complete disappointment.

[Also, whenever a professional responds so illiterately, that's a bad sign, as far as I'm concerned.]

--------------------------------------

7/7:

Teresa,
I contacted 21 other companies who do bonded, certified electrical work to get quotes, yes, I did.  I did not say that I contacted them solely by phone.  In truth, it was a combination of work done through email and by phone.  Why that comes as such a shock, I don't know.  

Maybe it's just that electronics (like computers and cell phones) are foreign to you, but a lot of us use them to communicate on a daily basis. You seem so confused by the quotation process!  

You asked how your competitors knew the particulars of the job?  Simple. They asked me.

As I said, I was looking for a rough quote, and got them from several of your competitors without any confusion, or contempt.  The top three that I'm workings with-- companies rated higher than yours on both Yelp and Angie's List-- saw your response, and had commentary of their own to add. Like, one said, Why doesn't she just try asking those questions beforehand, rather than ranting about them in response! While another added, How difficult is it to respond in email, like we did?  It seems like your competitors weren't nearly as confused about having a conversation on the internet.  For you, mores the pity.

I'm not looking for a handyman service.  I'm looking for an insured company with top-notch professionals.  A company committed not only to excellent service, but to doing a job-- not cheaply -- but economically.  And, seriously, if you think that's a _bad_ thing... it's really no wonder several of your customers complain about your prices (look it up).

Speaking of looking things up!  You might want to look up the word 'slander' in a dictionary (to do this, get in your car, drive down to the public library, ask the librarian what happened to the card catalog, find out they've been out of use for the last ten years, then ask for help on how to do a search on the internet-- I know how much technology confuses you).  

You've accused me of maliciously or falsely defaming your company, but what I've done here is simply quote (and verbatim, too) from your response to me on Angie's List.  Then I provided my opinion on our communique.  Everything that I've posted here has been 100% factual.  No lies necessary.  Let's face it, lady, I don't have to lie to make you look bad, you do just fine on your own.  

By the way, the word you're actually looking for is 'libel', not slander (one is written, while the other is spoken). I get that you have problems with words, though, so....  I think it would really help if you invested in a dictionary (or, and I'll give you this piece of advice for free (despite how valuable my time is!) You can always use dictionary.com.  Very handy!  Don't worry, no need to thank me!).

Before I go, I had a final word about this cheap, cheap, cheap thing you keep doing.  You said that I said I was looking for the work to be done cheap.  Here's what I said in my original Angie's List response: I'm hoping it's something we can get done simply and relatively cheaply. You have several specials, and I'm not sure if any of them could be used/combined, but I'd really like to see if I could get a quote for the parts/labor.  

It's sad when a customer can't ask for quality and value without being crudely mocked by the company they came to for service.  Why anyone would ever work with you... when they can see, word-for-word, how little respect you have for not only a potential new customer, but for service done at a value, too... is beyond me.
