Best in Austin TX

My breaker switch kept flipping to off. Sent quotes out and Breeze Cooling & heating replied within minutes. His estimate was very reasonable compared to the other quotes, so I chose him. He kept me updated on arrival status and on the day of repair he did a great job troubleshooting the entire panel, replacing the switch, testing the washer and outlet. The charge was under his max estimate so I gave him a $20 tip. I also hired him to hang string lights in my backyard. Professional service and very nice.

Pros: Professional, good communication, no up-selling or cross-selling to win my business - price estimate was on point!

Cons: My estimate was slightly delayed due to busy scheduling and travel but worth the wait

On August 28th, All Star Electric called to inform me my master electrician had finished his first job early and offered to start my job 2 hours ahead of schedule.  This worked out well for me since I had delayed leaving for work so I could review the job details with the technician. The job proceeded quickly and thoroughly as planned.  In fact, the only observation I noted for my Bob, my technician was the surprise that after collecting several bids to have an EV charging station installed, All Star Electric did not especially promote this service on their website nor did they try to up-sell / cross-sell other services I did not ask for...cudos.  Yet, they were responsive to taking care of some small addon requests for me while onsite.  
Overall, my experience with All Star Electric was positive.  The end result was as I envisioned and the site was left as clean or better than before.  Although, there is usually no repeat visit required for this type of job, I  would confidently contact All Star Electric again for any of the other residential services offered on their website.  For those venturing down the path of installing a Tesla High Powered Wall Connector, feel free to reach out with your questions on my experience of this installation at: [email protected].

It is very difficult to get an electrician to even show up for an estimate in Austin when permitting is involved. Blame The City for that. I had several no shows and others that never followed up with an estimate. Hart not only showed up when they said they would, but followed up with a very reasonable estimate. They are a solid company.

Reached out for a quote and received a quick response, however, he would never follow up with a specific date to schedule the work. After a couple follow up texts I just gave up since he didn't seem to want my business.

I scheduled an appointment with the Denver team three days ago. They ran more than an hour late, then never showed. They rescheduled twice more and never showed up. Done with this company. What a waste of time.

We highly recommend Steven & his expertise! He was able to diagnose a problem with our electricity and how that impacted our dryer efficiently and accurately! Before we called Steven we were at a standstill because two other companies could not seems to figure out what was going on. Steven was prompt with his communication and fair in his pricing. He even checked in with us the following day which we truly appreciated.

Paul and his son were extremely professional and courteous.  Great communication and easy to work with and make payment.  Fixed the problem and went above and beyond to get us back up and running.  Highly recommended.

Fantastic work done by Edge electric to install my EV charger, a surge protector and to fix an issue with an electric outlet that I have had for years. Highly recommend and will go back to them

Manny was actually early(he called first to make sure that was ok).
He brought an assistant and they handled several jobs for me without a hitch. He had the outlets, exterior covers and everything else he needed in his truck, even though I added some work I hadn't told him about(no waiting for them to run to Home Depot!).
I'm pretty frugal and had quietly decided I'd be happy with anything up to $300 and wouldn't complain up to $400. So I was VERY pleased when the total came to $165.
Highly recommended!

This was my first time hiring electricians to work on my first home. It's an old 20s house that was converted from a triplex, so there are some caveats and weirdnesses electricians may run into.

James Cox came recommended by two of my closest friends. He did some under-the-cabinet lighting for them, and it looked like it had been done with love and care.

I had a hard time getting ahold of them at first; I think my friend had given me the wrong number. When I finally did get ahold of them, they were eager to come out and give me an estimate. James helped brainstorm through the things I was requesting and trying to decide on, and he was very knowledgable. A good example was that I'd been thinking of adding over-the-cabinet lighting since there's a space between the ceiling and the cabinets in my kitchen. He took the time to discuss with me the pro's and con's of the different light types I could use, and why some would be better for my purposes than others. I could tell he was enthusiastic about this stuff, and he told me specifically he liked the idea of branching out beyond just electricity.

There were a few gripes. The first was that James was late to the initial meeting, and he didn't call. After about half an hour I called to see if he was on his way. He was, and apologized for not calling. If he would have originally said, Between 9am and 11am instead of At 9am I would have expected this, but that wasn't the case. It wasn't too big of a deal however, since I work from home. On the day the work was scheduled, the guy who James sent out to do the actual work was also late... but this time by like an hour or something. However, he was friendly and obviously knew his stuff.

The only other complaint I had was that the job was botched a little bit. The walls I have upstairs in my house (where some of the work was being done) are extremely thin... maybe around half-a-foot. I didn't know this, and neither did he. So when he attempted to drill through the attic floor to snake the electrical cords through, he poked a hole in the ceiling. This was an easy mistake to make, but he made it three times, all in separate places. To his credit, he left and came back with putty and spray texture, and stayed late to patch the hole up and try to make it match the rest of the texture on the walls. He swept up a little bit, but I still had drywall dust on my things and now have conspicuous white spaces that I need to paint over.

Over all, I'm happy with the work they did. I think the lateness is just the nature of the beast with contractors sometimes, and the thin walls were curveballs no electrician could have anticipated. The combination of these things made the whole experience less than stellar, but I'd probably hire them again.

Great electrician! He came out and fixed my issue in about 2 minutes, but he took the extra time (at no additional cost) to rewire my GFCI outlets the correct way so that the issue wouldn't happen again in the future. Hugely appreciated and would definitely recommend.

Greenbolt Electric has helped me on two jobs now and has been absolutely fantastic. Unlike most competitors, they're very responsive, ask good questions, arrive when they say they will, and complete the job much more quickly that I expected. Best of all their prices are very reasonable.

If you want to pay more for worse service then choose the other guy, if you want great service at reasonable prices then choose Greenbolt. You will be happy that you did!

My boyfriend and I refer to Carl and his team as wizards. Their knowledge and service was.top notch and they went above and beyond to help fix our issue when our home warranty company sent out a hack. Thank you again, Carl!

A good company to work with. As always, get everything in writing, but despite Rick's penchant for forgetting details of work to be done, they were reasonable when it came to billing.

Also, get Howard to do the actual work, he is great!

Great service and price - installed a light in the laundry room and power outlet in upstairs room.

Bob was great! a lightning storm blew out a circuit on our breaker and he came out within 2 hours of calling on a sunday afternoon. His rates were low and he thoroughly inspected the electrical work to make sure there was no additional damage. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of electrical work.

We called because our shower wouldn't shut off completely. Yes, they would come out... for $500! I wish they would've had the courtesy to tell us why it would cost that much.

TLDR: ATX Lighting wired an installation incorrectly and caused additional electrical issues and refused to fix the problem or issue a refund. I DO NOT recommend - stay away if you've experienced electrical issues from the recent ice storm.

If I could give 0 stars, I would. We hired ATX Lighting to install a bathroom exhaust fan/light combo at a rental property owned by my mother-in-law.  They didn't bother to give her an update or provide proof that the exhaust fan and light were working appropriately or even communicate to her that the installation was complete. Apparently installing an exhaust fan didn't include running the ductwork from the fan to the exhaust outlet in the roof - if we'd have known that, we would've hired a full-service company to install the exhaust fan and duct work. $300 to complete an exhaust fan/light installation + $350 for installing braces for the exhaust fan (literally just nailing in 2 boards into the existing ceiling joists - see pics). JP was super unhelpful and said that everything was working when they left (again they provided no proof or communication to my MIL that everything worked) but somehow was no longer working when I went to check. We had another electrician come to fix what ATX Lighting messed up (see my other reviews for a good electrician) and he found out that ATX Lighting had wired the installation wrong causing additional issues with other lighting in the bathroom and the breaker to continuously trip.

I had a fire alarm sensor beeping after we changed the battery since going off at 2 am. I was sick and had to stop the beeping. Call a few places and they came out within 2 hours. Boy did I pay for it $289 for them to come out, well they want to sell memberships, they go through your house and tell you what needs to be fixed, 1 hour later and yes alarm still beeping, and and extra 15 trying to sell
The memberships, I said just fix the fire alarm.  So an extra $275. To replace plus $289 .  I was so sick and had to stop the madness,, but would never call again.
