Best Emergency Services in Austin TX

Great team (Louis and Rosalinda) and great service.

Initial concerns leading to this particular call:
*No power in one of our bathrooms
*Non-responsive outdoor flood light
*Dead (or sometimey) outlets in the kitchen and two other rooms
* Overall electrical condition of our new, older, home

I reached out and was scheduled by Mrs. Rosalinda quickly for my growing list of electrical concerns. It literally seemed like one thing after another was cutting off or going out: power inside, power outside, and no amount of flipping breakers was making a difference.

Mr. Louis and assistant arrived, smiles on their masked faces (you can tell by the eyes) and immediately got to work. They checked for power all over the home, inside and out, and asked questions, which I like. They were thorough because even though the fancy current gadget showed power, they noticed our microwave failed to work in the same outlet. They did additional investigation, identified and and fixed the problem, once and for all.

They also replaced a finnicky island outlet and replaced our kitchen ceiling bulbs which have been in disorder for some time.

Mr. Louis went on to add that if any problems continued to occur, to not hesitate in calling back.

Final diagnosis, the overall wiring in the home does not need to be replaced, but we would do well to swap out a few old surge protectors.

So, without hesitation I'll continue to use and recommend L&R. They're the full package, reliable, responsive, honest and best of all, they know what they're doing.

As I look at my service specialty list, I can say: Electricians...check.

I was about to have my house appraised for a refi and had 11 handyman things I needed to get done.  Some of them I could normally have done myself, but due to medical reasons was unable to do so at the time.  Handyman Dan to the rescue!  Dan came out both Saturday and Sunday mornings and took care of my list before the appraiser came Sunday afternoon.  Great work and very personable.  I highly recommend Handyman Dan!

I would love to give this company a better rating, however I have concerns on 2 levels.

First, I requested a copy of the permit so that I could have an inspector look at the work; we are contemplating selling our home. The company did not pull the permit and when I brought it up they stated they only pull a permit when requested by the customer. I live in a city that requires permitting for everything and I would imagine this electrical company should know this.

Second, the work for the inside box was over 2k and they quoted 4-5k for the outside box. After the inside box was done, they stated they would do the outside for 3k, knocking 2k off for work completed. As an accountant this raised a red flag with me as that seems like a HUGE discount and made me wonder what the margins were.

I am all for paying quality work to certified professionals, however these 2 red flags made me reconsider further business. I hope I am a one off from their typically work and if so, this is unfortunate for myself.

I appreciate the quick response time. I received a quote and within 40 minutes they were in my house unclogging my sink.

They explained everything they were doing and were very professional.

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.

These guys are awesome.  Had one of my units out.  Jeff promptly responded, made a temporary repair, and diagnosed a leaking coil. I got 2 other estimates and Efficient was reasonable and they made an effective repair.  
This by itself would not earn five stars.  Saturday evening on Labor Day weekend the other AC is out and it's 100 degrees!   I call their number and Tony promptly responds. He explains emergency service is $15 more per hour. Ok, that's pretty reasonable. He is at my house 30 min later, replaces bad capacitor and I'm up and running literally 90 min after I called.  Labor Day weekend. Extra $15.  Five Stars.

Wow!  What a great experience!  This is hoe electric companies should do business. Billy is the man (electrician).  Austin electric answered my call, we agreed on a time they would be out.  Billy came on time & fixed my fan problem & while he was here he fixed some other electrical issues.  What a pleasant person & very knowledgeable. The price was fair.  Billy & Austin Electric have become my go to guys for everything electrical.

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 have used Veteran Electric for 4 different jobs over the past 1-2 years.
They have always come on time, completed the job without issue and in a timely manner
Their pricing is reasonable and they are completely trustworthy and honest.
You can't go wrong with Veteran Electric

Justin was absolutely amazing! We had to have ground wires replaced . The whole team that came out was amazing . Everyone was so positive, the atmosphere was wonderful. They kept us up to speed with everything. I highly recommend them. Will most definitely be using them again

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.

Ampology just finished a pretty big job for me, and they did an excellent job! I'm an electrical engineer and an advanced DIY'er, but even I know my own limits. I hired them to replace my breaker panel, upgrade my service to 200 Amps, add a weather mast to raise my aboveground service to a safe height, drive two ground rods, and put the microwave on a new circuit. Very competitive quote, showed up on time, were knowledgeable and friendly, worked quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. Everything but the microwave was finished on the first day. They had the power back on before 4pm. I am very pleased with the results, and I would definitely hire them in the future.

Highly recommended! They were super helpful over the phone once (& didn't even charge me for the advice given in that emergency). Been using them ever since!

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.

HVAC service requested and 1st Home & Commercial Services delivered. Jarred Kobus was our technician.  Jarred worked hard and efficiently to troubleshoot our AC issues.  He was very thorough, polite and professional.  We have used this company in the past for plumbing and HVAC servicing.  I highly recommend 1st Home and Jarred.

Outstanding Job and Same Day service. Tommy did Great work and finished the Job Quickly. We will definelty be contacting Salt Air & Plumming for all future Jobs.

Apex electric has completed three jobs at my house.  One was an emergency breaker job late at night, a Tesla charger in my garage and two outlet issues. All the jobs were completed fast and at a great price.   I highly recommend Apex.

This company is full of crap!!! I've been waiting a month for one of their plumbers to come out and the day of the service I get a call saying that the service I ordered is not one they provide. REALLY???? What the hell!!! If it's not a service you provide then don't keep me waiting for a month! Don't trust these people! Do yourself a favor and go with another company!
