Tony was awesome to work with and did a fantastic job today. He arrived promptly and was thorough to understand our needs during the walk-through (estimate). He did a wonderful job with some difficult-to-hang antique lights we had and was able to locate better mounting hardware to improve the look of one of them. His estimate was right on the money and work was awesome. Thanks Tony!

They are really good. They have a high rating on Angie?s List and they deserve it. I had absolutely the best experience with them. They aren?t the cheapest but they are a great value. I'll never call another electrician.
Description of Work: Mr Electric of Williamson County has done a lot of rewiring in our house, they installed a bunch of recessed lighting fixtures, and they basically redid the whole house over about three or four months.

The security lighting on our warehouses was outdated and not in good working condition, We had a vadalism incident, and the tenants wanted the security lighting in good working condition and rightly so. We chose to go with Mr. Electric. Even though their pricing wasn't the cheapest, it was fair, and the fact that they were bonded and insured was important to us. Also, they were able to get to the job immediately. The customer service was excellent. Jose Vargas, the service technician, was polite and courteous, and did an excellent job in providing up-to-date lighting for our tenants.

Tony from Mr. Electric was extremely professional in every way, from his ability to quote chapter and versus of the relevant codes to the care he took in the work he did. He was extremely courteous and took the time to explain everything he was doing. I will use Mr. Electric (and ask for Tony specifically) for all my future electrical work.

The scheduling experience was prompt and efficient. The electrician showed up exactly when promised, and called ahead just as requested. Tony from Mr. Electric was very friendly, respectful, informative and efficient. He investigated and quickly found the source of the problem. He gave me an estimate for the repair on the spot. He had a replacement dimmer on his truck, and replaced the switch in short order. I also requested estimates for two other projects. Tony was thorough and helpful, and again provided detailed written estimates on the spot for the additional work. While I didn't elect to do either of the projects that day, I now have a clear picture for what it will cost and can budget for the work.

Tony Keller of Mr. Electric came to our house on 11/20/09. It was raining the day he came over, and before he even walked in the house, he put down a mat to step on, and he wore shoe protectors so our floor would not get wet. Tony inspected the light switch (it was fine) and he thoroughly inspected the wiring for the fixture. The actual problem with the fixture was not readily apparent, but when he was done, it worked! My husband and Tony decided that it was probably a "fixture gremlin" that had to be scared away by a professional. Tony was extremely nice and helpful. This was a great service experience!
Description of Work: The light fixture over our kitchen table went out. We changed all the light bulbs and even changed out the switch, but the light fixture still would not light up.

They did a good job and were very nice. They got to their work and cleaned up after themselves. We were very pleased with them and the work was fine. It took them a few days to get out here, but they came the day they said they would and they came within the time allotted.
Description of Work: We used Mr. Electric to replace the plugs in our storeroom where our deep freeze and extra refrigerator are located. The lightning had struck there. There was also one in the garage that they replaced.

I had a very good experience with them and they were great. They gave us a quote on the spot and were very quick in responding. They had an answering service to call the electrician and they came out on the same day. They were very courteous, prompt and very professional. They came with the uniform and brought a mat for the front door so that nothing gets dirty. They went through a check list of things that we could keep in mind for the future use. They gave us a phone number where they could be reached at 24 hours service.

He arrived on time, explained the cost, finished quickly, asked if there was anything else he could do and thanked me for calling a licensed electrician.
Description of Work: My garbage disposal and an overhead light in the kitchen inexplicably stopped working one day. I determined that neither were getting power but could not discover the source of the problem. The electrician discovered the cause - there was short circuit in the wiring - and 15 minutes after he arrived, all was working.

Myra scheduled me and she was wonderful and so good natured. She called to confirm and then let me know when Tony was on his way out. Tony was just fantastic. He explained to me, in detail, what he proposed and gave me the exact price before the work began. After I accepted the price and signed, he started the work. He stayed late and finished the job for us before the weekend. We really appreciated the professionalism of Mr. Electric. The entire experience was first class from beginning to end. I highly recommend Mr. Electric. Myra and Tony were absolutely outstanding.
Description of Work: Installed 2 vanity lights and two sconces and shaved two faceplates to fit outlet with tile back splash in the way.

Overall, the service call went OK but we could have installed the 3 longer screws ourselves just at the suggestion of it. We just feel $170.00 was a little over the line for the short amount of time he was here and for what was actually done.
Description of Work: Electrician was called because our toaster oven blew sparks and quit working and we thought it may have damaged the electrical receptacle. The plug was fine, however, we only needed to hit the "RESET" plug and inadvertently hit the wrong one. The electrician could have left after that but he installed 3 longer mounting screws in the kitchen wall sockets and decided to check a surge protector outside. He alerted us to the fact that there could be a potential problem because of how the surge protector had been installed (by another electrical co. a few years prior).

Response from Mr. Electric of Austin
Because I was able to diagnose the issue quickly and I had noticed the receptacles not properly secured, I took the time to secure them properly. I was paid for knowing what to look for and knowing how to troubleshoot. I also checked the main breaker box to see if there were any issues and found the surge protector not installed properly. I feel my only fault was not explaining that the extra things were provided without charge due to the quick diagnoses. My house calls are somewhat like a doctor visit, a certain fee is paid for the visit. Since we come to the customer, we charge a diagnostic fee for the visit. We use fuel, time vehicle wear and tear on every visit we make. This is how we make our living, coming to the customer, accessing the issue and repairing or performing that issue. We are paid for our experience and knowledge of electrical systems and performing electrical tasks. We are your electrical doctor that makes house calls.

I did not except their bid. I called Bowen Electric and got the job don for $95.00 and we were both satisfied with that.
Description of Work: I wanted them to replace 3 outside lights ( which I had bought at Home Depot) and they gave me an estimate (out of a book) for over $300.00 which was outrageous for less than an hour's work. It actually took about 45 minutes.

Everything when as smoothly as possible. He did take two breaks, each one about 45 minutes in length. One was to cool down and eat lunch. The second was to cool down, shower, and get into a dry uniform to complete the indoor tasks (ceiling fan installs).
Description of Work: Since there was several things to do the electrician came to the home and gave a thorough estimate. They use a fee schedule, so there was no guessing about what each task cost. After deciding to use their services, we scheduled a full day appointment with the same electrician (Tony). We had him install a new circuit, 3 new GFI outlets in the garage, two new overhead light fixtures (we provided) in the garage (placing them on the same switch as the existing light), install 3 ceiling fans (we provided) one of which need to be "blocked" to handle the weight. Tony came on time, provided information about every task, worked as hard as possible (it was over 100 that day), and completed everything that day.

I needed two outlets installed in order to accommodate my home theater system. One outlet was moving an existing wall outlet a few feet and the other was installing a new recessed outlet through the attic over my mantle to handle my flat screen tv. My original electrician cancelled on me at the last minute and I was in a bind to complete this project since my home theater was to be installed in two days. Mr. Electric was very responsive to my situation and sent someone out the next day. I was impressed with Derrick's professionalism and workmanship. However, I was surprised with the price of the job. If I need future electrical work, I will go out to bid before I use Mr. Electric again. Mr. Electric may be fairly priced, but I will do more research for my next project.
