Todd with Foltz electric responded in a timely matter and showed up when promised and did a great job. The job was done right the first time and professional. I highly recommend him. Dependable and reliable.

Just don't do it. This guy is a total jabroni. A few weeks ago, I went to turn on the ceiling fan in my office. After staying on for a couple of seconds, the fan turned off in a way that made it feel like the breaker had tripped. I did the usual check of the electrical panel for a tripped breaker with no success and once I realized that power to the entire area of the house was out, I put in a service request for an electrician with my home warranty company. The next morning, I received a notification that Todd from Foltz Electric was assigned to my request and would be contacting me ASAP. This is where things started to go South and where I wish I would have listened to the negative reviews on this "electrician". Live and learn I guess. From here, it was a bunch of back and forth to try and get this guy to commit to an appointment with little success. He doesn't answer calls at all and when you text him, you get a one or two-word response a day or two later that doesn't help to set an appointment. After canceling a previous appointment on the day of due to who knows what and more back and forth, I finally get him to schedule another appointment almost a week after my initial service request. When Todd from Foltz Electric finally arrives, the first words out of his stupid mouth are, "It's a mobile home? If I would have known that, I would have never have agreed to come out." Fine. I didn't know that would be a problem nor did my home warranty company evidently. There are literally dozens of great electricians in the North Texas area so I can find a new one no problem. He then says that he guesses that he take a look but if the problem requires him to go into the crawl space, he's not going to do it. Ugh. Images of a whiny teenage turd are already going through my mind but as he started to ask me a few questions about the electrical problem and location of the panel, I start to think that the "electrician" was actually going to try and help. Nope. I invited him inside to take a look since the panel was just inside the doorway where we were speaking but he just turned around, mumbled something about not wanting to go inside, got in his truck, and left. Despite this guy being a total waste of time, I just watched him leave while laughing at what an unprofessional child he is. The downside is that he wasted a few weeks of my time, and I still have an area of the house that doesn't have power since the home warranty company now has to "investigate what happened" before assigning a new electrical contractor. Foltz Electric sucks. Just don't do it.

Diagnosed that the rats had chewed the wires. He rewired downstairs which was not easy and even fixed an outside light also. We have used him before multiple times. We would recommend him without hesitation.

I have used Todd before and was extremely happy with the result so when it was time for some more electrical work I called him back. He showed up as scheduled and replaced 5 light fixtures in the house and chased down an electrical issue that had caused several outlets to stop working. This was not an easy task and he kept after it until he found and repaired the problem. Then he ran an electrical line to a newly constructed gazebo and installed outlets and switches as needed. I appreciate the quality of his work.

I felt that Todd did a great job of troubleshooting, relaying the problem back to the AC repairman, and charged me a fair amount for his work. He could very well have replaced the disconnect box and I would not have been any wiser. I will definitely use Todd again if/when I need an electrician.
Description of Work: My AC repairman told me that I needed a new disconnect box and to call an electrician. I called Todd and he responded that afternoon. He examined the old box and agreed that while it's old and not very pretty, it was functioning just fine. I called the AC repair while Todd was still there and he talked to them, explaining what he had found. The AC repairman came back out that afternoon and repaired the problem, totally unrelated to the disconnect box but diagnosed by Todd.

The lesson I learned was to ask for a WRITTEN ESTIMATE BEFORE the work is started. His service was prompt, came out the next day, and he got the job done. He replaced 3 wall sockets, a pretty easy job. What took the longest was determining which switch to turn off on the main circuit panel that he was working on at the time.
Description of Work: Called the day b/4 to get an estimate. Was told $85 an hour and that the outlets were $3.50 each. Came out the next day, did the work in under an hour and was charged $126 for the labor. When asked about the labor charge, I was told it was $84 the first HALF HOUR and $42 the next half hour. Since I forgot to mention a Sr. discount and remembered it the next day, was told I should have asked BEFORE the bill was made out. I DEFINITELY look like a Sr. citizen!

great, see above.
Description of Work: Todd has helped us before with rerouting outlets and adding new ones. We called him while we were having a pergola constructed to discuss fan and lighting options. He gave us guidance so we could shop for the proper fan and light for the area we were building. He came out after construction was complete and wired a ceiling fan/light for us, He did great work and cleaned up after himself. Todd is the one I will continue to call for all my electrical needs!

Todd came out after giving me an idea of price over the phone, he placed the new outlet and cleaned up after himself. The price was LESS THAN he origianlly quoted and it was done within the same day!
Description of Work: We needed an outlet moved up about 5-6 feet so we could mount a flat screen TV.
