This review is delayed a few weeks but still applies to the stellar service of Paul Richard Electrical.  

If I could give Paul Richard Electric more than 5 out of 5 stars, I would.   The main thing that came from my project was that this company was 1) accessible and engaging, 2) reasonable in price, 3) service accommodating, and 4) adept in workmanship.  They were quite responsive in working with me to provide quick service under a tight schedule.  After Lynette understood my situation, she quickly connected me with Paul to coordinate service and pricing.  Very reasonable, I might add.  

I had several lighting fixtures that required installation as part of an interior enhancement project.  Josh was punctual and quickly addressed my combination of track lighting, chandelier, and security lights to be installed.   This was accomplished efficiently and effectively.   Because of its positioning on a high ceiling, Josh made critical adjustments and centered the track lighting for best visual effect.        

However, after Josh left, we took pictures of the just installed chandelier and were immediately notified by the design consultant that the chandelier needed to be adjusted down further.  Our previous measurements were at fault - not Josh.  So, a call was made back to Paul Richard, which Lynette, again, quickly coordinated a call to Paul.   Paul sized up this situation and proceeded to schedule another visit to our home although the office was located in north Houston.  Josh came back early the next day to lower the chandelier but within the safety limits of the wiring that could be allowed.  This accommodation (service and pricing) was quite appreciated and showed the commitment to service inherent in Paul Richard.

Yovani responded to my request right away, which I really appreciated since my smoke alarm had been chirping loudly and announcing Low Battery every minute since 2:30 AM! He arrived within the timeframe he gave me and was polite, informative, and helpful. He advised me to replace all smoke alarms in the house because once one goes, the rest aren't far behind. I was quoted $109 per alarm. That sounded high, but I thought the 10-year battery alarms cost around $50 each, so I agreed. I needed the chirping to stop.

He went to the store to pick up the alarms and returned about an hour later. It took him a little less than an hour to replace all 7 smoke alarms with Kidde Worry Free 10-year Battery alarms. No more chirping!!!

My only complaint was the amount he charged me. After he left, I looked up the cost of the alarms at Lowe's and Home Depot. Turns out they can be purchased for $20 per alarm. I'm not opposed to a business making money and being paid for their time, but $600+ profit for two hours work seems exorbitant.

In any case, I'm happy to have new smoke alarms that I shouldn't have to deal with for the next 8 to 10 years! And I was relieved to get the work done the same day I reached out.

Great plumbing service. I had clogged toiled from some family visiting and flushing everything. The plumber was fast and had all the right profesional equipment to get the job done. Thanks city & Beyond Handyman

I would recommend Ace services to anyone who needs   electrical services. It was easy to make an appointment around my schedule and the electrician was very knowledgeable about what I needed. Very fair pricing!

Josh came out to look at a troublesome light fixture - actually a very expensive chandelier.  All the circuits and power checked our - we were worried about an electrical arc or fire because it has intermittently failed to operate.  He pinpointed the problem to suspect wiring in the fixture itself - in the fixture where the wires are all split to run to separate bulbs.  He finished so quickly that he did not even want to charge me for his services, but I insisted I at least pay something for his time - he charged me for 1/2 a service call.  He even took a look at my breaker box to give me some advice on a completely different question regarding  voltage and current spikes that we have had in the past - and the pros and cons of a breaker box surge protector.  Very good service by this company!

I had a switch here in my home that I'd been putting off replacing for some time.  So, first, let me say, the work was fine.  The guy who came out to do my work was great, the work appears to have been done well and the price was reasonable.  

But, communication has been touch and go.  My initial message back from TMU said they could get to me today, but then a technician reached out to me to say tomorrow, which was a little annoying, but not actually important. Over the last two days I've contacted by no fewer than three people all identifying themselves with TMU who all seem unaware of what they others are doing.  To their credit, they've all been very polite about the fact that the job is already done.

I would readily use them again, but the experience has been a little weird.

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.

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've recently used them to install a chandelier, I was very happy with their attention to detail on that project.   More recently blew out an outlet and had them take that out and install a new one, again very professional and timely.

I recently had the need to hire an electrician to install an inlet box and an interlock kit for my portable generator. I've gotten several quotes thru Yelp and Victor was the most reasonable and also after further research found that he was well recommended by other customers that have used him. I'm thoroughly satisfied with the quality work he and his associate performed to address the backup power need just in time for hurricane season. He was very knowledgeable and provided a good understanding and insight into the various options and limitations of my Duromax generator to power my whole house. Great quality work and reasonable pricing, definitely recommend him to friends and family.

RHK Electrical changed out 4 vanity lights and a ceiling fan for us. They were great to work with. Their response time was fast and they were transparent and upfront with pricing. They arrived on time and finished the job in a timely manner. I had also asked them about an outlet that wasn't working and they helped me solve the problem without a costly fix. I plan to use them again for more projects.

great service and they were at my home in Cypress in around an Hour (short Notice). The Pricing was comparable to that of other companies in the area however it was the quick responses and the tech's customer service that placed them above the rest. I will use this company again in the future.

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.

Looking for a good electrician can be daunting and so expensive! Last year we bought a flat screen and wanted to hang it above our fireplace, but didn't want wires hanging out all over the place. I got several quotes ranging around $500-$700 for rewiring everything behind the wall. I called On Time and the electrician was so nice, personable, and willing to work with us to get what we wanted while still keeping the price affordable. He worked hard and got the job done quickly and the total cost was under $350. I definitely recommend this company next time you have a need for an electrician!
