The electrical plug that my microwave was connected to kept blowing, I thought it was the electrical plug itself, so I called Danny to come out and check it and change it if need be. He checked it and found that the plug was fine, that it was the microwave itself that had the electrical problem. He does not fix microwaves (it was under warranty still anyway) but it was a good thing I called him since it could have caused a fire. While he was at my house he also fixed another outlet that was not working and that my husband and father could not fix. He came out on a sat. evening for no extra charge and was prompt and very professional and courteous. I think his price was more than fair and I would definately use him again and recommend him to all my friends.

I cannot say overstate how pleased I am with the work and the price. I called well over a dozen electricians on Angie's List and was alternately told that the job was too much of headache to take on or was quoted prices that were double what Thor Enterprises charged me. The other electricians who quoted me crazy prices for the job didn't bother coming by my house, which is never a good sign. When I called Thor Enterprises, Danny agreed to come out and look at our house but made no promises until he checked everything out. Danny was honest about the various possible outcomes and costs associated with our unique situation but insisted that he'd try to keep the costs down if possible--something he actually did. Throughout the whole process he kept me apprised of the work and our standing with the city. Our house is now safely wired and passed inspection. Danny and his crew were quick and efficient. The price was very fair for the work and headaches involved. We won't use anyone else for future electrical work.
Description of Work: Danny Dixon, owner of Thor Enterprises, undid a electrical nightmare at our house. A different electrician, having lied to us about being licensed, did not pull the proper permits and failed to do the work up to City of Houston code. In short, when I called Thor Enterprises we had a dangerously wired house and were in a difficult position with the city inspectors who appreciated that we had contacted them about our bandit electrician but nonetheless insisted everything had to be ripped out and replaced. They also talked ominously about fines from time to time. My wife was six months pregnant at the time and the idea of having the walls reopened was not appealing. Danny rewired everything that the earlier guy messed up with minimal intrusion to our day-to-day routines, replaced the box, and brought everything up to code. He also did an incredible job working with the city inspectors and the inspector's office. He used photos I had taken of the other guy's work when the walls were open to assess what needed fixed and what didn't. Reminding the city inspectors that we had contacted them and had been cooperative since discovering the bandit electrician's misdeeds, he convinced them to work with us more flexibly than I would have ever imagined. The inspectors appeared to respect his reputation and work, which also went far in making our experience with the city much, much easier. As a bonus, he helped us turn in the other electrician into the proper authorities.

Danny was very professional and friendly and easy to work with. He listened to our concerns and was diligent at trying to track down a sporadic problem with one of our switches. On the second trip, he built a platform in the attic to support the ladder so he could wire up the attic fan. He said that if we noticed after a few days the fan was running too much or not enough, to call him and he would come back to adjust it for free. It was running all the time, even when it was very cool. We called and he came within a week, when he had another job in the area. He reset the temperature setting, didn't charge us for the trip, and refused to take a tip, since he said he'd do it for free.
Description of Work: Danny fixed two kitchen outlets and a switch, and wired up an attic fan. He had to make two trips to our house because he had to build a platform in the attic to hold the ladder and make sure he didn't damage anything up there. On his second trip, he replaced a switch without charging us extra for it.

Danny did great work and was very professional. He is not the cheapest and makes no apology regarding his rates. However his quote was reasonable, considering his high Angie's List ratings and my neighbor's recommendation. He is very flexible in scheduling and began the job on a weekday evening, this is great, since I did not have to take a day off work.

This is my second experience with Thor, and they are simply one of the best service providers I have seen. They went way out of their way to make a New Year's Eve service call at the end of the day (with a same-day call). It was done with the utmost of courtesy and professionalism. For the second time, the repair was made immediately and at a very honest cost (especially on NYE). They're the best, and I am going to use them to do a bigger job I have coming up based on the expertise and professionalism displayed on the last two visits. Use Thor.

Danny put me at ease. I feel like he provided excellent service at a more than fair price. I would recommend Danny to anyone that needs electrical work done!

Awesome experience. Other providers had a two day wait. They came the same day. I wasn't home when they came, but my wife was. Imagine my delight when she called and said the electricity was on and the cost of the repair was only $50! I very much appreciate the honesty and service. Thank you very much.

This was a costly, huge residential re-wiring job of a 1970-era 2,524 SF house with all aluminum wiring to all copper connections so the wiring now meets all current electrical codes and avoids any electrical issues associated with selling the house in today's competitive market. Owner and proprietor Danny Hixon was knowledgeable, honest, and straight-forward about educating us and explaining various options as to the job scope and exactly how the work could be done. Danny and his subcontractors (all licensed electricians) were a pleasure to work with and very professional throughout the many weeks needed to complete the work. The initial price quote was based on a flat-rate price for replacing plugs, switches, light fixtures, replacing or installing new ceiling fans with light kits, hanging and recessed light fixtures, inside and out, which made it easy to verify the final invoice. A few unexpected "hiccups" developed, but were all handled in stride after consultation and I was very pleased with the areas where Danny took initiative and came up with a better result than we first discussed. I would rate the quality of work as beyond expectations, particularly in the neatness of the installations; the 1-year, transferable warranty; and the cleanup afterwards. Despite the cost, I felt we got quality work and very good value for our money. Later, when two outside motion detecting flood lights were found not to be working properly Danny a made a special trip to the house to determine the source of the problem. He fixed it within one week of the original call back. He is honoring his one year warranty.
Description of Work: Converted electrical wiring for a 2,524 SF house from aluminum to copper connections at all points where the wire was smaller than #8AWG using UL approved pig tail connections; installed all new plugs, light switches, globe light fixtures, new ceiling fans with light kits, recessed and hanging inside lights and many outside light fixtures; installed a new circuit breaker box replaced the ground wire; and corrected all open ground wiring.

I called him and he said he was getting ready to leave town but he said he would come right out. He looked at the problem and said if he could run down to the hardware store he could fix it. He ran down and brought back a $3.00 part and it fixed the problem with the inside lights. He did not charge for this call and I will be having him come back for the outside work. The other company tried to charge me $10,000.00 for the work.

I've been a member of Angie's List for 2 years and have been very pleased with the service until the last contractor. I called Thor Enterprises and spoke with Danny Hixon. I explained to him that one circuit of the house (2 rooms and various wall outlets) were blinking intermittently. Upon his arrival I showed him the lights in the 2 rooms and after checking the breaker box he immediately wanted to remove the electrical meter and check the main wires to the house. I expressed my hesitance on checking the meter because the symptoms did not warrant that. An example would be checking the alternator on a car to fix a burned out tail light. It can't hurt but since you are paying for it does it really need to be done? If the whole house were having dimming and flickering lights then yes, but my home had problems in one circuit only and since the circuit breaker had been changed the day before I told him the problem was most likely in one of the connections in the circuit. He insisted that removing the meter and tightening the main wire connections fixed 80-95% of the homes he worked on. I knew this was just a way of inflating the bill but my choices were call another electrician and wait or trust in Angie's List A rating for the company. He charged me $175.00 to pull the meter and snug the main wires. I asked him "what if this did not fix the problem" and he again insisted that this fixes practically all homes. After 20 minutes he finished working on the meter and started to pack up and said he was confidant that everything was now OK. I insisted we check the problem circuit again (before he left) and it was as bad as ever. Everything he had done had fixed nothing and it was then he was forced to check what I had repeatedly requested from the start - the problem circuit. After 45 minutes he discovered the loose connection and repaired it. The circuit was fixed. Summation: 1.) From the start, work was done needlessly to inflate the bill. 2.) no attempt was made to check whether the work performed fixed the problem (until made to by customer). 3.) I rate this job as a D only because the problem was fixed (after the issue was forced).

Response from Thor Enterprises LLC
I can understand what this customer is saying when referring to checking the alternator for a burned out tail light. What is not understood hear is that you have to go through certain test to eliminate & diagnose the problem correctly. If I went to the Dr. & said I am short of breath. I believe the Dr. would do his best to help me. But in order for him to help me he has to test several things. Do I have a bad heart? or do I have a problem with my lungs? Either one could be the problem. The bottom line here is the owner must have changed the breaker the day before and it did not fix the problem. He called on one of the best electrical contractors in the city. I understand his frustration however without testing for the most common of problems first,you can misdiagnose the problem. The customer was not over charged for the work preformed.The service rendered in the breaker box & meter can were to insure that the heart was not the problem.Then we check the individual circuits & yes there was a spot on the lung. The out come of the mater was problem solved lung clear. Most people take electricity for granted and do not realize that the electrical system needs maintenance. Just like having your A/C checked once a year. A person should have there electrical system checked about every three years. This helps greatly in reducing costly repairs. But most people don't know to do this to keep from having to replace the entire breaker box. It is very unfortunate that this customer feels that the work performed was over priced. I know for the quality given the price was fair. Sincerely Danny Hixon owner of Thor Enterprises.

Dan responded immediately after we called, came out to give us a quote the next day and did the work the following day. His crew was great, they did a wonderful job and were very polite. He finished on time and charged me less because he was able to complete the job without having to do everything he estimated.

Danny was in and out within a couple hours of my initial phone call. He pleasantly honored his warranty. (The original surge protecting unit functioned as designed; my house apparently experiences surges at a much higher than normal rate.) I feel confident that having this extra level of surge protection on my house has (and continues) saved the household from having to replace numerous electronic appliances and machines!
Description of Work: Danny/Thor Enterprises performed warranty work on my "whole house" surge protection unit. I had this unit installed in the fall, and noticed this spring that the lights on the unit had "gone out." (Our house experiences brown outs/surges on a fairly regular basis.) Danny replaced the unit at no cost (per his warranty) with no issues.

Although there were some hiccups along the way, Danny stayed until the job was done and done right. He was scheduled to come around 8 in the morning but called to sat he would have to change that to around 1. By 2 I had not heard from him and called. He was still stuck on another job and said he would be there by 5. He called as he left his job to say he was on his way. I was slightly annoyed that my 8 a.m. apt. ended up being a 5p.m. visit but I felt he handled it well and we all have our off days.
Description of Work: I had two outlets that were not working, one outlet I wanted added, and a bathroom vanity lighting fixture that had to be moved from the ceiling to the wall. Danny and his assistant had trouble figuring out why one of the outlets was not working. He worked until he found the problem and fixed it. The installation of a new outlet was easy for them. To move the lighting fixture over the vanity from the ceiling to the wall ran into some issues because there was a plumbing pipe that ran center on the wall. They figured out how to make the light has centered as possible without disturbing the pipe, it was great!

I asked for an early appt on my day off. He showed up early (which was perfect for me) and completed the work in 45 minutes. It was an easy job, but I was happy to have a qualified professional complete it for me at a very reasonable price. He even cleaned up old caulking around the old fixture that I didn't consider part of the work, but appreciated.
