Best Emergency Services in Austin TX

Asked if I had electricity. I told them I did, so it wasn't an emergency, but they came out the same day I called.
I had an entire circuit go out on my circa 70's house full of aluminum wiring. Luis showed up, went through the panel, then trouble shooting. I was prepared to upgrade panel or at least replace breaker in an old original panel. But Luis found it was a scorched receptacle that was the wrong type for aluminum wire, and incorrectly installed by my brother in-law. So that when it fried it took out the rest of the circuit. Found and fixed it all, in couple of hours, and charged me way less than I thought I was going to end up spending. I am getting an estimate from him to go ahead and upgrade panel, because I want to, not because he pressured me in any way. Easy to communicate with, and great work done in a very timely manner, for good price....  that's three outta three!! I have a trusted electrician in Austin now. Thanks Ya'll, L&R came through.

Dan demonstrates a very high level of integrity about his craftsmanship that I don't see much of these days. He's a great guy -- affable, knowledgeable, punctual, respectful, and above all, honest. He cares a great deal about getting the job (even very small jobs that other contractors might deem unworthy) done right. And if he is unable to do a particular job in question, he will be honest with you about it rather than trying to do a shoddy job just for the money. His speedy turnaround time and the fact that he himself does the work (rather than sending out a subcontractor) is greatly appreciated. We definitely will hire Dan again for future projects.

Steven came to our rescue on a Saturday when all our kitchen appliances quit working at once!!!!
He quickly found the issue and fixed it! I did not lose any of our food and was able to prepare dinner that same day for our large family!  He helped me assess safety issues and charged me exactly what I had been quoted!
Great service. He's in my book as our electrician to go to now!!!!!

These guys were able to help install an outlet in our garage for our new electric vehicle and then also help with some plumbing issues we had in our master bath. It's a family business and they are hard workers. We don't take holidays, was a true statement. These guys came and finished work in the days between Christmas and New Years. Will keep them in my phone book in case more jobs pop up around the house.

I had owner of live wire at my residence to do electrical work and cannot express just how professional and courteous he is. I highly recommend Dusty for anyone that is wanting a honest and affordable electrician. Nice to have a reliable company with such determination to make sure customer is satisfied. Thank you Live wire for your prices and hard work

My A/C died while I was deployed to Afghanistan,  the entire staff at Efficient A/C did an outstanding job and making what could have been a highly stressfull stituation very easy.  From the company president to the sales manager to the service tech and the installation crew they all were extremely professional and attentive.   Even with the time difference I was able through email to get all the details worked out and have a new system installed in just a matter of days!  They truly lived up to their name!

Called and left a message for some items we need repaired.  48 hours later and not even a return phone call.

I had a great experience through out my projects with Justin and his crew. Justin was always responsive, showed up when he said they would, and was open to any changes that I had. This was very refreshing as most contractors I've dealt with have not been responsive and just randomly show up. I highly recommend Justin and his crew to anyone needing electrical work. The crew did great work for me and were a pleasure to work with. I'll definitely use Goat Electric again when I need more electrical work.

I reached out to have a doorbell installed in my 30+ year home that for whatever reason never had a doorbell. Veteran came out and viewed the property to get me a quote and about a week later I had Doc working on it. Not only was the job done right, quickly, and on time, but Doc ended up completing the project under budget. I feel like I got a deal that was more than fair. Their communication and scheduling was quick and easy. No complaints. I would definitely reach out again for any other electrical needs.

We hired them to install some outdoor lighting.  David and Robert did a fantastic job and were very professional.  They also worked their schedule around ours as we had a restricted time schedule.  They were terrific and we would definitely hire them again

REALLY EASY TO WORK WITH!!  Polite, careful, and knowledgeable.  Does it get any better?  Thank you for making the ceiling fan install so easy.

Very competent and professional. All work was done as promised, on time and at a fair price. Was very impressed with the organization and neatness of the electrician and helper. Both were friendly and cleaned up the work area thoroughly. Would not hesitate to use their services again or to recommend them to anyone. They strive for good workmanship in your home, very trustworthy.

Our electric water heater died last week and my son did everything he usually does to fix it but this time nothing worked, so he called Red Grizzly Electric, based on reviews. Scott Weaver (Mr Grizzly?) called back within an hour and arrived within 30 minutes after the call, and we live way out in the country.

He quickly located the problem (a burnt out breaker) and replaced it, and now our water heater is working PERFECTLY and he was only here less than an hour! Plus he was nice to our dog.

We will DEFINITELY be calling him for ALL of our electrical needs from now on.

Oh and PS, it cost only $100!

They showed up punctualy and quickly diagnosed the problem with my Service Panel Box. Laid new wire and rewired wall box and no more breakers tripping. Definitely a professional crew.

I got a quote from a few electricians but 1st Home and Commercial Services were the only ones able to come to my house the day I called.  Chris dropped by right on time, diagnosed the problem and fixed it in under an hour.  He did a great job, and I would definitely recommend this company for their quick service and great customer service!

Nice guys but bad service. Be aware their drive up charge will not be included in an work charge - it is extra. Even a simple job of replacing an out side photo cell for tree lights (30-minutes of work) they charged a standard minimum job fee of $400. Turned out they did it wrong. They had to come back out - they sent a different guy who corrected the problem - but this cost me 2 extra hours out of my office. On top of that the second guy tells me the work the first guy did was wrong: he should have replaced 2 junction boxes (too old). So I told second guy go ahead and do it now. He said he can't I have to schedule a new trip at $400 more. I call customer service manager and he didn't care. Very bad service in the end.

A friend of mine recommended the owner Steven Fikes to me so I went in and asked for him specifically for some work I have been looking into getting done. I was told by a colleague that he was out on a sick day so I thanked him and left.

Later that morning I'm notified by a family member that he had posted a video in a Facebook group in our community from his security footage of me walking back to my car in the parking lot, stating that someone sent their pregnant wife in regards to her husband doing illegal work and slandered me in the comments. As I am an 8 month pregnant wife, I have no idea what that was in regards to and believe he has me confused with someone/something else.

Either way, this is by far the most unprofessional thing I have ever encountered and I am still in disablief how something so insignificant got recorded and put on social media. If I could give zero stars I would. I'm confused and embarrassed to say the least.

If this is any indication of how this man conducts business, I would steer clear and far from this establishment.

UPDATE:  Do you know that annoying message that says the call may be recorded for quality assurance.  Well, to Mr. R's credit, he used them to verify my side of the story, researched to find my name and contact info, contacted me personally and apologized.  He also assured me he would deal with the situation personally.  Very nice touch!

Based on our conversation, I will upped my rating and will definitely consider using them if/when I need their services.  As I told him on the phone, I hope that's not for a very long time!  LOL

Thank you for the personal touch, Mr. R.!
