Best Track Lighting Installation in Austin TX

What an amazing company.  I contacted them through the website at 8:53 pm and had a response by 8:55 pm.  They were out the next day, identified the problem, had the needed supplies on their truck and were completed within 30 minutes.  I am SO IMPRESSED!

Scott installed an additional outlet in my garage. I love that he communicates via text message. He kept me informed on the progress of his prior job to let me know approximately when he'd arrive at my house. Upon arrival, he was very friendly and got to work quickly after giving me a few options. He seems like an honest and stand up guy. He didn't try to sell me the most expensive option, but instead asked questions to help me get the best solution for my needs. I'd recommend Bear to others.

Absolutely wonderful experience!  They came out immediately to take a look at my project, provided me with an estimate and they scheduled me the next day.  In addition to being quick and efficient, they took the time to explain some existing issues and correct them.  I've already used them again on a small project and they will be my first call for any electrical needs!!!

Max is professional and honest. His crew that came out  [Dylan & Carlos] did an outstanding job! Will be doing future projects with Twin Oaks Electric!!

On time, courteous, but most importantly knew what they were doing and got er done quickly--and efficiently.

First time I tried this company and I was not disappointed.  Steven came to my house I had a bathroom outlet and a utility room light that would not work.  I thought it was the GFI plug that was not working.  It turned out it was not that plug at all.  Steven had to search and find what might have caused the plug to trip.  Steven had to bring in a ladder to get in the attic and then he had to get to a plug in my storage area outside and had to move stuff to get to it and told me not to worry about it.  It happened to be an outlet that was on my carport that was bad that was tripping the plug. He changed it out to a weather resistant plug.  Steven moved the stuff back in my storage area and he cleaned up where he installed the outlet.  Very nice guy.  I will definitely call them again for the next electrical problem I have.  Also, very reasonable pricing.  So if you need an electrician give them a call.

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.

James installed 4 new fire alarms in no time at all. He was very courteous and professional. I would definitely recommend Cox Electric.

This company has no clue what they are doing. Dealing with the owner seems to be more of a challenge also (Rick). They do not seem to want to honor their work from hanging light fixtures to outlets. They like to charge for simple things rather than honoring their work. Don't worry though estimates are FREE!!

Don't look any further. Atx lighting is an excellent company. Clean responsive and professional. They were able hang both my chandeliers that are almost 30 feet high. They also touched up the paint around the rim. I highly recommend them. Will be using them again!

It's rare to find an electric company this good but I  glad we found them and will continue to use them

Requested a quote for two ceiling fan installations - did this with several companies but Allgood was not only the sole company to respond but they did so within minutes and we able to schedule within a matter of days.

Today we received a call to verify times - they arrived within the early part of the time allotment and the electrician did a fabulous professional job ; quickly removing the old fans and replacing ( and building ) the new.

It was easy , fast and professional. Excellent service and would call again

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!

These guys are terrific -- talented, personable, helpful, affordable. I needed two light fixtures replaced -- one inside, one outside -- and they came, as promised, within two days of my receiving their quote (which is what I requested). The outdoor fixture was particularly troublesome, because it was up so high and in a cramped space, but they sized up the situation, figured out an approach, and successfully swapped it out.

I was impressed with their expertise, knowledge and experience. In fact, they gave me some great ideas for other areas of the house and explained -- clearly and concisely -- options for various fixtures. They know their stuff. I get a sense that much of the work they do is commercial, but they seemed to genuinely enjoy taking on this smaller  residential job. They invited questions, shared their advice, and took pride in their work.

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.

I had a project to install network wiring and powered retractable speakers, and LiveWire was excellent at getting this done. They were punctual, very thorough and knowledgeable, and everything came out great without any stutters and rework, even though this was weird equipment etc. pricing was fair and clear up front, service was great, highly recommended.

Leslie Ledwell has excellent communication skills, fair pricing, and excellent electrician skills.

TLDR;
Leslie is a military veteran and is now a licensed master electrician.   From early communication to bid to scheduling to showing up to do the job, he communicated well every step of the way.  There were no surprises or additional fees.
I highly recommended Ledwell Electric for my next project!

Installed heated floors in our bathroom but they would not power on. Installer said it was a problem with the equipment. Veteran Electric was the only company willing to actually diagnose the problem. Turned out to be a staple that punctured the electrical wire which they replaced. They got everything working and I brought them back out for additional work.

We'd been struggling with an outdoor light fixture for way too long--and it was time we needed a professional look at it.  The Colvin Electric folks made us a speedy appointment, completely checked out every possible area for issues, and left us completely happy with our new, beautifully functioning lantern.  We're definitely calling them back if we have any other electrical needs!

John at ATX Electrical was outstanding!  He came out to take a look at our project and jumped into action noting the deficiencies that had been brought to our attention during this project and I was able to validate his findings. His work was super clean and tidy. We added an exterior outlet for our sump pump and he didn't have to run any extra exterior conduits like I  had been previously quoted for less $$. I am really pleased with how it turned out. ATX was not the cheapest, but their work was definitely superior. I would call them back in a heartbeat because I know I'll be taken care off.

Levi and Johnny did a great job. They explained everything to me as they worked. They cleaned up after their work and put everything back in place before leaving.
