Reviews
We needed new recessed lighting installed.
Quote appointment was easily made, and arrived on time. Requested curtesy call was requested but was never made.
Quote was reasonable and install scheduled for next day. Electrician arrived 2 hours late, but called to inform us of their late arrival prior to appointed time.
Work space was carefully covered in plastic and light placement was carefully measured multiple times to confirm accurate placement. Holes were cut neatly and they were extra careful to limit dust. Work completed within 3 hours.
They will cover up Sheetrock holes they make, but do not repair it. Was informed of this during the quote
Overall, reasonable pricing, friendly service and I would consider them again.

The electrician who came out to estimate my job was a big fat scammer. Wanted to charge me $3000 to extend a wire enclosure AND said we needed a new fuse box up to code. This idiot didn't realize we just bought the house and everything passed two inspections. His final estimate was $8000! He wanted a deposit and I said I'd need to speak to my husband. This guy told me he was the #1 electrician in Texas...I mean, this guy was bonkers. I found someone to do the project for $350. No new fuse box needed, either. Avoid these scammers.

Just Don't
I requested a quote for a breaker box , they came up with $4,000 - attached is their quote - I got the same job done by local company , with 20 year warranty, and $2 million dollar insurance . For $1,100.
After the job was done I decided to call Mr electric and inquire what exactly is going on , how come they are way off - the lady who answered became defensive , and gave an example of buying a Louis Vuitton vs buying from Walmart.
I assure you the local company I hired were more honest , efficient and delivered a speedy service than this company.
I don't recommend this company
Had a repairman come and replace and outdoor light fixture. Job took about 20 minutes and the technician was responsive and did a high quality job (including finding a nice matching silicone sealant to put around the mount plate.
However, let's talk price. Was originally quoted $268 for this simple job that I knew would take less than half an hour to complete. Absolutely outrageous. No electrician is worth over $500/hr (keep in mind there were no parts required for the job). Luckily they were willing to negotiate into a reasonable range, but I would severely caution anyone against trusting the competitiveness of any initial quote you get from them without shopping around
I took off from work to be home for them to come 2-4pm. I called earlier in the day to confirm and was told they'd be there. During 2-4 I called twice following up on their whereabouts and they said they'd dispatch the person and that person would call me. 3 more calls to Me. Electric until 7pm and no one could tell me where they were or what happened. No call, no show. Extremely frustrated.
Electrician gave inaccurate information about a short we had. His response would have been accepted; however, as an engineer who has taken electrical circuits I knew his answer was completely ill informed. Additionally, the work he did on light fixtures was subpar. Technician actually broke one of the fixtures and tried to blame as a manufactures defect. Highly disappointed in service by technician. Also, felt nickel and dimed. Highly recommend you pass.

This place is full of crooks!!!!!!Stay away at all cost!!!!!
My dryer had problems because it was tripping the breaker so i called Mr.Electric
Guy named David comes by, took one look at the breaker, didnt even care about the dryer and said my whole circuit need to go.
Gave me an estimate of $3,748 to replace everything. I said im not doing a 4k job on the fly
My friend referred me to someone else, guy comes over, checks all the lines and breakers one by one, and found a bad connection of the line that connects dryer, fixed it in 10 min and charged 100 dollars.
Mr. Electric is full of crooks who will invent problems and overcharge your life savings away! STAY AWAY AT ALL COST

John Losoya installed two fans and a house surge protecter. He was amazing. He was on time and installed everything perfectly. The price was competitive and service wonderful. I will totally use them again if I need anything electric in the future.
We had a great experience. Robert was on time, detailed in his explanation of the issue and was able to complete the job the same day.
Todd was great! I scheduled him to come to our home in Sugar Land and replace a chandelier and two entry pendants. He was on time and spent amost 4 hours working non-stop. He had to get into the attic for the entry lights and I think it ended up being more work than either of us thought. He was at my house until almost 7 pm. Our lights are perfect. I will be using his services again. I think he charged us $375, which is reasonable given the time and work and quality of work done.
I have used Mr. Electric for over 5 years now. A car had run through my business and knowing it was an emergency to shut off power he was there in thirty minutes. Since then he has done over 6 jobs and has always been prompt, courteous, professional and reasonably priced. I trust his judgement and knowledge. He has always showed up when promised.
Todd and Xavier both do very good work. I've had them out multiple times at my business and I've been satisfied with their work every time. They installed power outlets, an exhaust fan, and did a general health check. The pricing is reasonable and communications with them and their office was good. I would recommend these guys to anyone.

Great experience with them. The answered all my questions, offered solutions, and was in and out. Will definately use them again.
Made appointment, stayed home from work to meet electrician. No show. Phoned office. Electrician phoned, his alarm did not go off, still in bed.

Really disappointed. I am a repeat customer many times over and Xavier has always taken great care of our electrical needs at my small business. I called Mr. Electric last week to have them install a ceiling fan and was told Xavier had left the company but they could send another technician out. We scheduled the appt for this past Saturday at 3:30pm. On Sat at 4:45pm after not hearing from anyone, I called them to find out how much longer it would be before they arrived. The appt scheduler said she didn't know where the tech was or what had happened but she would call him and then call me back. That was two days ago and still no call back from them. Really poor service all the way around this time. I don't treat my customers in this manner and don't expect to be treated this way, especially after having been a long term customer of theirs. I will be using a different electrician company going forward.

Great service! Todd came to fix the lights in two rooms of my house. For one room, the halogen bulb had to be replaced. He was kind enough to drive to the store, buy the bulb, and replace it for me. Thank you!
I never got a chance to write an actual review because they didn't even show up to give me a quote. They were supposed to come by last Friday around 1pm. I was home from noon until late in the evening. No show, and no call/text saying they couldn't make it or needed to reschedule. I won't be calling back to make another appointment for a quote.
I have used Todd Woodruff, of Mr Electric, many times for electrical work on my home. He is very honest, timely and professional. If you are looking for someone to hang a light fixture or install a whole electrical system, please give Todd a call.

Outstanding service! Electricians were knowledgeable and brought my older home up to code. Installed new boxes and new fixtures. Excellent team that worked well together and got the job done efficently. Highly recommend!

Called to make an appointment after reading good reviews on Yelp. Seemed friendly and said he was busy that day but woul try to come by that afternoon or the next morning. He didn't call and didn't show so by next morning so I called him back and he confirmed appointment for later that day. Again never showed and never called. Complete waste of my time waiting for him to show and didn't have courtesy to call.

I was going to write a great review for these guys, since generally most people (myself included) post low scoring reviews. I'm glad to see that these guys are getting great reviews. Ron came out to our home and really talked to us about what the problem might be, fixed it and left - and didn't leave us a bill. He said it was a quick thing so it wasn't a big deal. Amazing!!!! I've never experienced service like that. Kudos to Mr. Electric and Ron.

Arrived promptly to address a major electrical problem we had and fixed it same day. Two months later he came back to address the same problem and there was no charge. Highly recommended!
