I called Freedom Enterprise electrical, Scott the owner answered and made an appt, he showed up on time, which is so rare to find with many companies these days. I had a problem with the electrical wiring in the house, it was a tricky problem. Scott found the source and fixed it. Excellent service with very Low Cost. He was professional and honest. I highly recommend this company.

I had issues with no electrical power for about 2 of my rooms.  One room been the computer room where we have all our electronics: internet routers, alarm hard drive, WiFi and working areas.  I was very worry because this systems are essential for me but more for my wife, who is a teacher and does a lot of computer work for lessons plans, etc.
 We are thankful that were we're taking care of our electric issues by Mr. John and Mr. Steve who were super professional, skill, polite and approachable.   As soon as they came in my house they when to test and diagnose the problem that was fix in one hour.  From now on you can count on getting my business and my family.
  Once again I would like to express our gratitude for a great job done.

All I can say is good luck getting ahold of anybody at this outfit. Three phone calls over three days with messages left and not only does nobody ever answer but there is not even so much as the courtesy of a returned call. They must be really busy spreading Vegemite on their bickies or something.

Reached out and had a response so quickly with an estimate and availability. Needed the project done ASAP for some DIY we had going on at the house, and On Electric was there next day!! Lauren was so friendly and answered a few questions I had about the electrical work. Great value and fast work. 100% will return for the other electrical work we need done around the house!

Bob and his company did a great job installing our back porch outlets, fans and TV's a few years ago. I have recommended him and his company to many people. They do good quality work at a good value.

Very quick to respond and easy to work with. Honest work at a very good price. Will use again.

We have been planning to upgrade fans and lighting and install new fixtures throughout our home for some time. We knew this would be a big project and I wanted to make sure we found a qualified company to complete it. I reached out to KW Electric and they responded right away to my request for a quote and offered first an initial and, later, final walk-through to ensure the plan matched what we wanted perfectly. Dennis P. and his apprentice, Joseph, took the time to thoughtfully plan and install everything including a 72 fan and recessed lights in our 24' great room. I wasn't sure how an electrician would accomplish what we wanted, but KW Electric team explained their process every step of the way. They were quiet, kind, courteous, and responsive, always taking care to clean up the area they had finished in, before moving to the next. They are fully licensed and insured and I would recommend this company without any reservations to anyone looking for high-quality, comprehensive electricians. We have a couple more projects in mind and I look forward to working with Dennis in the future. Thank you, KW Electric, for helping us bring our vision to life.

I Recently had Modern come buy and install my mounted television and  surround sound. I was a little nervous about having strangers come into my house and do all this work, but thanks to a friend, my mind was set at ease. I couldn't be happier with the end result. Not only did Steven and his staff keep my house wire free by hiding them in the walls, he also helped out with some electrical issues I was having in my guest bathroom. Steven and his staff were thorough, professional and extremely nice. Will definitely use their services again and highly recommend them if you ever need electrical work done.

Has 2 digital timers installed by Cory (electrician) and Tyler this morning.  Wired in accordance with manufacturer's diagram, but diagram was incorrect.  Cory hot checked and had power to the timers.  Didn't ask him to set timers because I felt it would be better to learn to do so by myself.  I attempted to set the timers for approximately 90 minutes without success.  Wasn't able to get power past the timer even with it on override.  I contacted Bryan (owner) and he would have Cory return today.  Cory returned this afternoon, checked his work and wasn't able to get power past the timer.  He contacted Bryan and Bryan was able to determine how to wire timer.  Gave 5 stars because of timely return and completion although Cory should have checked equipment for operation rather than only hot checking timer.

Mark Manchac and his crew had to move my solid brass chandelier to a different location and replace it with a new ceiling fan.   My clients are yoga students and needed a little more cool air coming their way.  The guys at M&M had to go up in the attic to reinforce the chandelier because it weighed so much!  They went to great lengths to get it done the right way.  I appreciate that!

We had a small attic fire that left us with no electricity.  I called several of the electric contractors--all booked way out.  I found Allied in the BBB listing and was very impressed with their rating and time in business.  Called them-they seemed to really care that I could not live in my home, and got Mike Ming to our home the next day!  He was terrific.  He juggled some scheduling (they were booked way out also) and got two techs to us in two days and then four the day after.   All bright professionals, and friendly....and they cared. Wow.  That got the electricity back on..and we could move back in!!!   In one more visit they had it all detailed out.  Thanks to Mike and Steven and all the crew.  Oh, and after the cost for the job was reasonable, also!

We had wanted to do some electrical work around the house but kept putting it off thinking it would be too expensive and not sure how to get everything done.  Called Sunvison based on another Yelper's recommendation and very glad we did.  Jim came out to our house, listened to what we wanted, and provided a lot of great advice.  His quote was much less than I expected so we scheduled him to start the job as soon as he could.  His team was out the next week and they got right to work.  

The electricians, Fernando and Pedro, were very professional and had us double check everything before they cut into the walls.  They were very flexible around our schedule and gave us a lot of choices on how to solve our problems.  Quality work done everywhere and we're very happy with the results.  They didn't rush anything, took their time to make sure the job was done right and that we were happy with everything.

Jim and his team will do a great job at a very fair price and they won't leave the job site a wreck.  They didn't leave until we were 100% satisfied.  My only regret is waited so long to call to get the work done - love having the new lights up and not having dark spots in rooms.  I will be calling Jim in the future for any/all electrical work in my home.

Unprofessional. Got a quote, Scheduled a TV mount for the following day, took the day off for it and they never showed up. Had to email and call multiple times to see if they were coming.  Eventually got connected and was given the old we can't come a dog bit my technician excuse.

Wow so much to say about Eskew electric. All the guys with this company are really great guys who do fantastic work. You can tell when someone cares about the quality of work they do and I must say that Eskew electric has that going on. I've heard they have been in business for a really long time here in Austin so glad to have found out about this electric company. Look no further these guys are great to work with!

Not impressed!  Ricky came to the house, seemed nice enough at first and went on about how he got sick of contractors ripping people off so decided to start his own company.  Turned out to be worse himself in the end.  Hired to replace 1  breaker,  and figure out why 2 sockets weren't working.  Rplaced the braker and said the external one needed replacing also - funny that the Ricky didn't find that when he came out and inspected.  Agreed to have them replace the second one.  They spent HOURS (they charge by the hour) trying to figure out what the problem with the sockets was, then said he didn't have the right equipment, and would need to come back again.  My husband called Ricky to discuss and query why the technician didn't have the right equipment with him... he suggested that 'when people remodel they cut wires' - we haven't remodeled, overall he was dismissive and rude! All in all they did about 1 hours actual work and charged $600.  Will NEVER use them again.

Unfortunately I am one of the apparently many that have had horrible experiences with Dunman Electric. My first mistake was not looking at yelp before hiring them. However, both my mother and brother used them around 6 years ago and had no issues so it didn't even cross my mind.

I called Dunman on Tuesday 9/11/18 to get a quote for installing two ceiling fans I had purchased. The receptionist, Becky, was incredibly nice and told me that they charge $95 per fan if there is already existing blocking, or $120 per fan if there is no blocking. This seemed like a reasonable price, so I scheduled the installation for 9/14/18 and was very pleased they were able to fit me in so quickly. My second mistake was not getting these prices in writing.

I scheduled the time frame for 10am-12pm because I have two roommates that work late and sleep in, but I got a call at 9 am that the technicians would be there in 15 minutes. They were at the house 5 minutes later. Thankfully, my roommate woke up to my call to let them in and my parents were able to get to the house quickly to meet them. It was a bit stressful and I had spend 15 minutes of work time dealing with it, but I let it go because I know these things happen.

Then, when the technicians started they did not place any sort of plastic down under the first fan so my roommate's bed, dressers, and floor was COVERED in insulation (which had fiberglass in it) and drywall dust. They shook out her comforter and vacuumed the floor when they were done, but they still left a huge mess and we had to to a much more extensive cleaning later before she could sleep that night.

Next, there was an issue with the fan blades. The fan blades had two sides with different colors. They installed them black side down without asking which color we preferred. This was partially our mistake for not making clear which side to do before they started, but when asked to flip them they said, Well I picked the black side because it matched the furniture. It is not a technician's job to decide which color blade looks better in someone else's house. He then said it would be another $80 to flip the blades. This was quite annoying but, again, I just let it go and figured I would just figure out how to flip them later.

But then came time to pay. They finished and said the total was $569.  
That is well over double the price I was told. They said they charged $170/hour, it took 3 hours, and there was an extra fee because I had not had any blocking for the fans. Unfortunately, my mom did not realize what they had quoted me and filled out a blank check I had left.

They also left their ladder in the garage, as well as the old lights and trash from the ceiling fan packaging in piles in the rooms.

I was still at work but I immediately called back the office and relayed everything that had happened to the receptionist to figure out what was going on. She told me she would pass my complaints on to a manager, who would get in contact with me after she talked to the technicians. I called back after an hour of not hearing from them. The receptionist informed me my case had been escalated to the owner and he would get in contact with me, however he was at an electrical emergency and it may not be until later that afternoon before I heard from him. I never heard from him. At this point I put a stop payment on the check so it would not be cashed before I had a chance to talk to Craig.

I had to call them back myself Monday. When I finally got in touch with him he informed me that while, yes, his receptionist had told me $120 per fan, the lowest he would go for the service was $450. $125 per fan installation plus $100 per fan for the blocking.

At this point I had already had to take a half day off of work and spent the entire weekend stressing about the situation. I am a first time, single homeowner in my 20's and I do not have $300+ laying around for a job I thought would be much cheaper. I would never have agreed to let this company do the work if I had gotten a quote for this amount upfront. It is not a good feeling to feel like you have been scammed. From the looks of the other reviews it seems like I'm not the first person that has felt this way after hiring them. On the plus side, they have taught me to always get any quotes for work in writing.

I would strongly advise anyone looking for an electrician to look elsewhere. There are plenty of honest companies in Austin. If you insist on using Dunman, make sure you get everything in writing. In the end, I agreed to this price to get all of this behind me and to keep from missing any more work, not because I thought it was fair or just. I truly hope Craig and everyone else at Dunman learns from this experience and can provide better service for their customers.

They give you a low heat tune-up so they can charge you for things they think needs to be fixed. My heating system is 7 years old and has been checked every year without any problems. Today he found over $4000 worth of things he thinks need fixing. What a scam. They must need the work!!!!
