Best Emergency Services in Austin TX

I had a electrician out very quickly to give me a quote, high $300 to mid $400 for a new outlet for a welder. Once the official quote came in, it was actually in the high $300's... that made me happy.

They were out the next day to install the outlet and did a good job. The tech did have to make a couple of trips to Home Depot for parts (he didn't come out in a company vehicle) and he did forget to seal the exterior opening... minus 1 star.

But the price and turn around time negates those issues and I'm giving 5 stars for the price, quick scheduling and the actual outlet installation.

I sealed the opening myself just out of convenience but they did offer to come back and do it.

We had a couple jobs involving building a hand rail for an attic area as well as designing a custom hidden door that goes into a safe room. Dan was not only responsive but he clearly enjoys his work and creates quality results. The custom door couldn't have turned out better!! A fun and creative feature that he designed from scratch. Great value and it is really enjoyable working with someone that is honest and reliable.

Fantastic work and service by Steven. He arrived on time and worked around my schedule. He was very thorough yet efficient as he installed a ceiling fan for me with remote in less than an hour. I will hire him again for multiple jobs.

such great service...we reached out to 7 handyman service companies and Jose was the ONLY one to reply.
needed a dishwasher hose clean and new hinges/re-hanging of a door at our duplex and although it was a bit pricier than I would have liked, I was glad he could get this done quickly and without any issues...it was well worth paying a little extra as he was efficient, easy to work with, and got the job done!
thank you Jose! you are now our 'go to' handyman in the Austin area!

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

I thought I had a simple project, but I was in over my head. John was great! He was very nice, explained what was going on, clearly told me his plan, and completed the job right and fast! Definitely will be using Efficient anytime I need a reliable and efficient electrician!

Austin Electric was the first to respond to my request for service, scheduled for the next day, and was efficient, knowledgeable, and honest. I definitely will use them in the future.

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.

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.

Thanks HunterService Group for quickly responding to our request for service. John was polite, professional and personable. He quickly assessed the issue and gave us some recommendations for future work (he also pointed out previous work not up to code).

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

Fast response time and on time as scheduled.  Lam and his work partner quickly resolved our burnt up wiring issue and were out the door with very reasonable charges.  We will definitely call Ampology Electrical again for our next electrical needs.

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!

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.

Update on my previous review. 1st Home & Commercial has since helped me replace my HVAC system (was old when I purchased, and predictably did not last much longer), new system working great.

I also recently installed gas logs, and the installer noted that he suspected a gas leak in the fireplace valve. Darius and Andrew from 1st Home and Commercial responded quickly when I called them to come check it out. Similar to my previous review -- they were both very prompt, courteous, friendly, professional and responsive. Good communication on the appointments and dispatch also.

We needed an electrician to perform a diagnostic service on a line fault. After agreeing to a $72 service call, a person was sent out to do a 30-point inspection and an upsell on GFCI plugs, surge protectors and the like and did not perform any serious diagnostic services. Diagnostics would be an additional $750 (it appears the salespersons/electricians have a list of prices, you'll get quoted options with upsell in your proposal for service. (I pity elderly folk who might get suckered into buying lengthy service plans etc, when they just need a repair done). Of course, there was no one back at the home office to hear my complaint that I paid $79 for an at home sales call. Though I did receive a 'complimentary' refund of my $79, I'm so disappointed that I would be suckered into such a time suck. Im also going to be far more careful about going with Google reviews. Clearly something here is amiss. (But if this sounds like a five star experience to you, then this is the electrical service to go with.)

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.

Absolutely horrendous service.
Jon Wayne came to service our unit on Monday.
Mind you the unit was working/cooling before the experienced technician  put his hands on it.
During the service the experienced technician damaged the valve stem and forgot to tighten the low and hide side valve covers.
Our refrigerant leaked completely out. Long story short - I was basically told by Jon Waynes management too bad not our fault. So I had to pay another company to fix the valve stem and put in refrigerant.
Rest assured we are pursuing all legal options.
