I had a smaller but important job and did my usual blast to contractors. The first guy gave me a quote without asking many questions. The second guy asked for pics but never got back to me. Then ABR Electric asked for photos, had follow-up questions, and gave me a range for the quote ( which was right in the middle of the others). I liked that they were thorough, communicated well, on-time, and worked efficiently and with expertise. I had the pleasure of having Jason (Big J) and Ron perform the work requested expertly. I have other projects down the road and won't hesitate to have ABR come back to help me with them! read more

ABR Electric - Electricians Near Me - Allen, Texas

I highly recommend ABR electric. I've used them multiple times to help with my house as the electrical wiring in my home is outdated and everyone in a while I run into a problem I can't fix myself due to previous owners of my home to took shortcuts to fixing something. Rest assured, ABR always sends a knowledgeable and friendly certified electrician. James, the owner of the company is also a very kind and professional electrician himself. The value of cost of a service is very reasonable for market price. I will continue to use ABR electric for any future electrical needs of mine as long as I'm in Plano. read more

I could not be more pleased with my interaction with ABR electric and their installation of our new EV charger. Their team was very quick to respond and was patient as I requested quotes for multiple install locations. Wendii responded in great detail with what the electrician could and could not provide and the pros and cons for both options. Their pricing was also right in line with other quotes I received but I felt much better about the expertise the ABR team brought to the table based on how they handled the quote process and the level of detail they provided. They were able to schedule our installation very quickly and the electrician completed the work exactly as described. If you need an EV charger added (or any other work from an electrician), I wouldn't hesitate to work with this team again. read more

We just moved into a new home and needed a couple extra electrical outlets installed. Actually, only one was required in a bedroom closet. The second was in a utility closet which didn't have an outlet close enough. I contacted ABR and scheduled the one outlet install. The quote they provided over the phone was a lot lower than I expected. I was given a window for the install with the name of the technician doing the install. The tech, Ron, called me and let me know his arrival time. This is probably the first contractor I have ever used that showed up exactly the time he scheduled me in...maybe a few minutes early. He installed the outlet and asked if there was anything else he could do while he was here. I showed him the utility closet and my wife's thoughts on an outlet to charge the Dyson. He said....not a problem. The charge of the second outlet was a no brainer since I already paid for the service call for him to come out. Ron was professional, answered a few questions about the new house electrical setup, and did a great job cleaning up after himself. I couldn't be happier with the entire process. I can guarantee they will be the first call I make for all future work. read more

I recently had a situation with flickering lights in my house. Unfortunately, it happened on a Sunday, outside of ABR Electric's operating hours. Another company responded that day, spent about five minutes on-site, and charged me $220 just to tell me to call my power company. If I had waited until the next morning, ABR Electric would have been my first choice. Wendi and the team at ABR Electric were the only ones, out of four companies I contacted, who immediately told me it sounded like a power supply issue and advised me to contact my service provider directly. They didn't push for an unnecessary visit or charge me a fee, just honest, helpful advice. ABR Electric's integrity and transparency were a breath of fresh air. Moving forward, I'll definitely be relying on them for any electrical needs. If you're looking for an honest company that won't take advantage of you, I highly recommend ABR Electric. Thank y'all! read more

I had 4 ceiling LED dome lights and tape lighting go out after a power loss event. Jason and his apprentice Sky came out were able to fix the overhead lights quickly and also offer guidance on fixing the LED tape outage which required more diagnostics. Jason is a really nice guy and very responsive to my questions. He even offered to clean up a small amount of degree before he left. I recommend ABR if you need a good electrician. read more

ABR Electric - Outdoor installed Tesla Wall Connector - Electricians Near Me - Allen, Texas

I needed some troubleshooting done so I requested service ABR who sent out a technician did some troubleshooting and found that the issue I was having was due to the HVAC system. Come at my subpanel to my guest house get some wine issues and items that were not the code and we're done incorrectly, which I was already aware of. He gave me a very fair quote which I agreed to and he was scheduled and came out a couple of days later after getting the parts. He was very efficient and got the job done correctly in a very timely manner. I am very happy with both visits That I requested from AVR electric. They are very down to earth people which are fear and not trying to get over on the customer. I cannot recommend them enough. read more

They installed a dining room light and an outlet in a closet for me. Price was reasonable, job was done in a couple hours, and they cleaned up after themselves. Overall I'm happy with the work and would use them again. read more

They showed up on time. Completed project on time and cleaned up when they were done.

Excellent experience with ABR. I hired them to install a standby generator as well as replace my- Oncor meter base. James came out to visit into the site and gave me an initial estimate and also explained a great deal of important information that I was unaware of. Thereafter, I approved their estimate and we set up a time to install the generator and meter. Throughout the process, there was ongoing communication between their office And the owners. Installation day started, with Jason taking the lead. Jason was fantastic, very informative, and very friendly. The process was very smooth, with ongoing communication and explanations. We had a complicated matter in that we needed to have the power company turn off power at the pole, so ABR was able to coordinate directly with the power company and it was a very smooth process. I've interviewed many electrical companies, this one stands out by far. They are good, honest people. Overall, an excellent experience. read more

I can't say enough good things about this company. I waited a year to get some outside electrical work done cuz I was told it was gonna be really expensive.

Excellent Service and Communication. Spoke to Wendi several times prior to arrival. She was the best to book our appointment. James came out and was just as friendly. He walked me through the process and began working. He installed our NEMA-50 outlet for our Tesla. He also cleaned up the garage area where he worked very well. I would recommend ABR Electric for any electrical needs. I know I'll be using them again on my next project. Thanks again ABR team read more

I needed a couple electrical upgrades to my home and after getting some quotes and doing research, I opted to go with ABR electric. I couldn't be more pleased with that decision. For the quote, James provided a very thorough and honest write up of the work that would be done: a NEMA 14-50 installed for a future EV, a whole home surge protector, and a power inlet box so I can plug a generator into my home. I appreciated that I was kept in the loop about everything. Communication is important to me. I also valued that the company took care of getting the permits and respected my property. For the inlet box, we opted to cut along the garage's drywall instead of running wire outside, but they took care to not make a mess or make it unsightly. They screwed the drywall pieces back on and I was able to fill the gaps with spackle and paint it so it looks like they were never there. I also really liked that their work didn't interrupt my day. They needed to move some of my switches in the breaker box, but it never disrupted my work since I work from home and having power to everything is super important. Once everything was installed, James took the time to chat with us while waiting on the inspector to approve the installation. I can't thank him enough for walking us through how to use the generator and connect it to our home. I was deathly afraid I was going to blow my house up if I did something wrong, so I'm glad he was around to instruct us on what to do. It's little things like that that go a long way. If I ever need additional electrical services, I'm giving ABR a call. read more

We recently relocated to Allen and purchased a home that is about 25 years old. While the home is amazing and in great shape, there were a few places whee we wanted to add some lighting, fans, and power drops. I found ABR here on Yelp and submitted for a quote. It takes them a week or so to get over to complete the quote in our experience. They respond almost immediately, it is just arranging the quote that takes more time. The quote was provided after a detailed walk through by one of their team. I was able to ask questions and was provided with specific solutions that would solve our needs as easily and cost effectively as possible. After reviewing the quote, the pricing was extremely competitive in my opinion. Having had electrical work done in other locations before, I was actually surprised by how reasonable the quote was for all the work we requested. It took about 3 weeks before we could get the install done. This is due to how busy they are and the availability of supplies. It seemed like a long time to wait, but when the time arrived, the work was completed in a timely fashion. All of the jobs were done professionally over two days. Upgraded interior lighting in kitchen and living room Increased lighting in the garage. Two power drops on the patio. Installation of a ceiling fan on the patio. Installation and mounting of a flat screen television on the patio. All in all, it is not easy to find solid craftsmen you depend on to take care of your home. I am however very excited to have found and worked with the team at ABR. read more

I connected with ABR through Yelp after 1) reading reviews here and 2) seeing them recommended on an electric car site as a reliable EV installer. I had them install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage, and my ChargePoint HomeFlex. The install window was 12-1, but I got a call asking if I was willing to do it earlier since a previous job finished early. That was excellent for me, and the entire experience was quick, professional and very high quality. I'd bring them out again for any work, and I definitely recommend them for an EV or PHEV charger install. They do a lot of them, both Teslas and non-Tesla chargers. read more

I've had ABR do a number of jobs for me, and I've always had a generally positive experience with them. I'd like to keep things up to date with a new review, and I hope this will be beneficial for their team. Recently I had a new sub panel and circuit added. A few positives: 1. James is great to work with as always. He's very thorough in his explanations and he helps provide solutions that are cost effective and competitive. 2. Jason kept me informed of the work progress and he made an effort to ensure the work met my needs. He also was detailed in his explanations. A few things I think that could be improved: 1. Shoe coverings-- I had to mop my floor a few times just due to the amount of dust and dirt that got tracked in as the electricians came in and out. 2. Parts and tools readiness-- I felt that they were inadequately stocked with parts or tools as they came to the job. One of the requirements were interconnecting nipples between the main and sub panel, but it appeared there were attempts to use an assortment of parts to try interconnecting the panels. The holes in the stud between the panels were completely wallowed out to nearly the whole depth of the stud, seemingly in an effort to accommodate the assortment of parts, and the electricians left a few times for the store, which suggested to me that the parts inventory wasn't adequately considered prior to arriving onsite. I believe this parts issue contributed to the electricians having to work longer than necessary. I also observed one of my screwdrivers being used as a chisel at one point. 4. Workmanship-- The new circuit run does not appear to be adequately stapled due to some amount of slack that I observed where the wire comes out through the top plate. 5. Cleanliness of work-- For the ceiling penetration for the new circuit, the apprentice was instructed to create a hole. However, it seemed he was not adequately instructed on how to capture the drywall debris when creating the hole, which resulted in drywall dust falling down onto the counter. For the subpanel in the garage, although it's the garage, I think more effort could be taken to control dust when cutting open the wall. One option would be having a vacuum hose held up near the cutting saw when opening the wall. I found every surface in my garage covered in a fine layer of drywall and wood dust after completion of the work. 6. Termination Torque checks-- I found multiple terminals not completely tightened when I checked the panel later on. read more

We had originally hired a handyman to replace some ceiling fans with new ones that had lights. The other guy took two fans down, said they had the wrong size for the mounting bracket and 1. Couldn't fix it, 2. Had never seen anything like it, 3. Had to look up what to do, 4. Would have to go into the attic to fix, and 5. That'll be $150. We picked ABR because of the great reviews and they deserve them, from what I can see. Jason came the next day and got everything fixed, no attic needed. I was really happy with the work they did and will reach out again for future needs! read more

When we built our arbor/pergola/covered patio, we had a company that ran the wiring inside our outdoor kitchen. A few years later, we were inundated by rats that made a mess of the inside of the counter, and we noticed that they were building nests and chewing electrical wires. Thank goodness for ABR Electric! They came out, re-did the wiring and covered all of it with steel to keep rats from re-congregating. We can now shore up holes with concrete and breathe much easier. We will definitely use ABR Electric for any up-coming issues. They are very professional and knowledgeable, and the price was very reasonable! read more
