Best Recessed Light Installation in San Antonio TX

I previously reviewed regarding installation of 5 fans in a timely manor. Bolt revisited and installed two more for us with the same excellent service. We have more work planned in the future and will be calling this company to perform the tasking.

All Star Electric is the company I'm calling first for all my electrical needs. They recently fixed some outlet issues I was having, including replacing a receptacle; and I liked my whole interaction with them from the beginning to end.

After requesting multiple bids from Electricians, I found All Star Electric's prices to be the most straightforward. They are very responsive via Yelp and by phone. Adom answered all my questions in an approachable manner and was patient with me when I had no idea how to explain the issue I was having. He also shared some tips on how to conduct a basic troubleshoot for a different issue I was having which saved me a diagnostic test and fixed the minor problem.

Lastly, they provide military discounts. I'm always so impressed with businesses that offer military discounts, esp in Military City. May their business prosper 100 fold!

Sorry Troy, appointment was from 0800 to 1000. Either someone on your team is lying to you or they don't have their crap together. See the screenshot I'm posting that your team sent me.

Highly recommended...The outlets in all three of our bathrooms were not working, and we couldn't figure out what was wrong. We tried flipping the circuit breaker, and that didn't fix it. Electrimax was prompt in responding and came out to our property fast! Mario showed up on time and diagnosed the problem within minutes. The plugs in all of our bathrooms were working when he left our house after less than 30 minutes. It turned out that we had an outdated GFCI that needed to be replaced...Thanks, Mario!

I cannot say enough good things about Thomas. He responded to my call (a room of outlets that were not working) and immediately scheduled an appointment. He was on time and went right about it. He doesn't waste one minute and he is fast and thorough. He went above and beyond and I couldn't be more thankful that I found such a reliable, fair and hardworking electrician. Thank you so much!

This is my second time using their services and I can honestly say that they're the best in Austin.  The team is on time, professional, and great at what they do.  Pricing is very reasonable and I'm so happy with the results.

L&R was able to come out to my property on 3 separate occasions within several hours notice each time when I had issues (I have an old property built in 1940). They were able to address the issues promptly, professionally, and were very affordable. Would call these guys again for sure if I ever have any issues and would recommend them to anyone who needs service. 5 stars for sure.

Called first thing in the morning and he was at my house within a matter of hours. He came prepared and had the parts he needed to replace in his truck. Extremely fast and friendly service. It was so nice to get this taken care of quickly and have  the rest of my day to run errands. No one likes waiting around and I really did not have to! To top it all off, the prices were significantly cheaper than all of the other places that I called. Highly recommend!

Paul helped me track down the root cause I was having with two of my outlets. After some troubleshooting, he was able to figure out there was a bad neutral wire connection in another outlet that I didn't even realize wasn't working. He fixed that outlet and that ended up fixing all of the other issues. He was able to get all of it done in an hour. Very friendly and easy to work with. He also showed up exactly when he said he would.

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 just moved to Pflugerville and had a few electrical issues pop up in our home.  When I called our home warranty, they put us in touch with Lightning Electrical.  Two electricians, Israel and Rene`, came out the next day to fix the problems.  They were prompt, courteous, very knowledgable, and provided a great service.  These two guys did a fabulous job diagnosing, fixing the problems, and offered some helpful information.  While they were here, I asked if they could install an outlet in a bathroom that did not have one.  They were so nice about doing that extra bit.  The price was very reasonable.  I would definitely recommend Lightning Electrical, especially these two electricians.

Virgilio came out to check a couple circuits in a back-patio breaker box.  The hot tub breaker was toast and unavailable in the local market, so I went online and found a suitable replacement; he returned a couple days later, to install the hot tub breaker.   While here, he replaced two interior switches; one dimmable light-switch and the garbage-disposal switch.  Friendly, knowledgeable & reasonably priced, and very responsive!

I contacted him again the following week; I decided to completely replace the patio breaker box and all breakers as the old box really wasn't safe.  We set the appointment and he returned completing phase two of my electrical upgrade.

Soon after upgrading the patio circuits, I decided to replace the primary interior breaker box & all breakers in my garage; several of those breakers are sloppy-loose in the box.  He will return this week to perform the change-out in my garage.  I'll sleep much better knowing these electrical upgrades to my 50 year-old home, enhance our fire-safety.

Virgilio returned today, 8/31/22 completing my electrical upgrades.

Very pleased with his work and work ethic.  Will definitely hire again if needed!

Great work. Excellent prices. Kaleb is a great guy to work with. He swapped out some old rusty fluorescent light fixture in a carport for a new LED version. It looks great. Big improvement. He also helped with a ceiling fan inside that was falling apart. And he's coming back to replace a broken ceiling fan in another room. Very professional, excellent work.
Highly recommended.

They were prompt efficient & professional after the ice storm we had a power outage  in our home which required an electrician to fix & upgrade equipment to code. They took care of it the same night & by morning. We had our electricity back. Thank you Homer& his team

I am so happy to have found McDavitt Electric and Master Electrician, Clayton! I found him online and took a chance because he was within 5 miles of my house. He replied to my email within the hour, and made a same-day appointment with me. I had a long list of electrical jobs to be done, but one was a top priority. Clayton had it done that day, and I will have him back to work on the other jobs next week. He was punctual, friendly, thorough, and did excellent work. My husband and I appreciate the fact that he didn't offer us just one way to complete each job--he gave us several viable options and let us decide how we wanted to have things done. I trust him 100% to complete the work we want done, and look forward to having new outlets installed and new lighting in my kitchen! Call McDavitt--you won't be disappointed!

First of all, I am going to summarize this in the most easy way possible. From now on with electrical issues that we have, I will be using Colvin Electric. Our service rep/manager Michael Galvez was super awesome, educational and professional. He was also very considerate of our home as he was walking around assessing the issue and it was resolved in less than 10 minutes.

One of of my other favorite experience was that days before my repair, I was notified via phone to confirm my appointment with reminders. I also received a text prior to Michael coming on who he was with a brief summary of him. HOW F*CKEN AWESOME WAS THAT! Safety and secured.

There will no other electrical contractor coming to my residence except Colvin. Thanks Michael for a wonderful experience along with the educational conversation about my electrical panel!

Four days after my hip replacement our water heater stopped working.  We called our plumber and he couldn't find anything wrong with the coils, so the next morning I called a number of electricians, many weren't even available until the next week.  I then called FireFly Electric, I told them the same situation we were in and they made it a priority.  FireFly dispatched one of their supervisors to our house and found that our 30 Amp breaker had failed. I'm a curious person and enjoy learning and FireFly was very accommodating in educating exactly why and how the component had failed and what the current building code encompass and what was in place at the time of our construction.  He also told us about whole home surge protection which is something I'd been looking at.  

He was able to replace the failed breaker immediately and put our water back in service, showers and clean dishes for all.  I would highly recommend FireFly, prices are competitive and as a company they actually listen to their customers.

I have used them several times but recently had an issue with them not warranting their work and will not use them again.
They charge an awful lot so they should warrenty their work.

This is are response to the owner on my review since it won't let me post.

We were never told this was a bandaid solution or presented with any other options or any pricing issues. We were seeking a permanent resolution not some temporary solution so you must have mistaken us with other unhappy customers. We actually hired another company who took one look and determined your work was done incorrectly and causing all the issues. It was quite an easy simple fix and we haven't had a single issue since.
