I will call them again…read more I had an emergency. EMPWR answered the phone, showed up about two hours later, did the job right, and quickly got it inspected by the city as required for this job. Their communication was friendly and thorough. They also contacted me when interruptions in their schedule occurred, and we problem-solved together. They came back the same evening to address an undetected bad breaker. Since the electricity was off when they did their earlier repairs, there was no way to detect that the surge had fried that breaker. Their goal was to get my power back on. I appreciate that focus on the result and not just the tasks. The billing was transparent. Not inexpensive, but clear and fair for emergency service. I got what I paid for and I'm happy.

I contacted him through Home Depot to install a new kitchen light fixture. We scheduled a time for…read morehim to come by, as he wanted to see the chandelier in person first. While he was at my home, I casually mentioned that I was also having a sauna installed, but had already hired a licensed electrician for that work. He offered to give me a quote for the sauna installation, which I respectfully declined. After I reiterated that I only needed help with the light fixture, he became argumentative and told me the job "wasn't worth his time"--despite already being there as agreed. The interaction felt very unprofessional and uncomfortable. He also attempted to upsell me on other projects I had never contacted him about. Overall, he came across as pushy and more focused on upselling than on providing honest, respectful service. Editing to respond to Eugene's message to me: Hi Eugene, I read your message and I want to respond honestly. You were hired to safely install a single chandelier and correct what the previous handyman had done wrong--which you agreed to do. While I appreciated your help initially, I made it clear during your visit that I had already hired someone else for the sauna project. I politely declined when you pushed to take it on. After that, your tone shifted and you said the light fixture job wasn't worth your time, which made me very uncomfortable considering you were already at my home. I reached out the next day to see if you could finish the job, not to demand anything or be rude. I did not threaten you--I simply expressed disappointment in how everything unfolded. I stand by my review, as it reflects my genuine experience. I hope you'll understand that feedback isn't personal--it's about helping others make informed decisions, just like I tried to do when I hired you. For the record, I am fully entitled to leave a review on Yelp without being harassed. Please stop texting my personal number and leave me alone.

I had one good experience with these guys when then installed a tesla charger at my old house and…read moreat terrible experience with them with they installed a tesla charger at my new house. The first time they did it they installed a 240 volt outlet in my garage and I plugged a tesla mobile connector into that, worked well. The next time they did it at the new house, I thought they would do the same thing but apparently they stopped installing the mobile connectors. Now they only install the wall connector which is a large sci-fi looking thing that is permanently affixed to the wall. It's also more expensive than the mobile connector. None of this was made clear to me when we started the project with Grayzer. They came to my house, got about 90% done with the job then saw the equipment I had and said "sorry we don't do those anymore". They explained the situation to me but since I didn't have the equipment they wanted they couldn't finish. They did however insist on being fully paid for the job. Stupidly, I agreed to pay them and they left saying "call us when you have the wall connector". That was a mistake. Never fully pay for the work until the job is fully done! So I bought one and scheduled a time to finish at which point they said they would need to charge another trip fee to come back out. I explained that it wasn't made clear to me that I didn't have the right equipment until the job was almost complete but they didn't care. They were insistent that I give them another trip fee before they would come back. Frankly they were pretty rude about it too. Like really rude. Whoever I was emailing was belligerent and completely unprofessional. It was extremely frustrating. I tried to explain that as the professionals in this situation they should be the ones checking that all the equipment is ready to go before the job starts. At the time I didn't know the difference between a mobile connector and a wall connector. I didn't even know that tesla had multiple options for wall chargers. I had what I used the first time so I figured it would work. It's not that the trip fee was so much money but after having to drag this out over two visits, spend another $150 to upgrade to a wall connector, a trip fee on top of all that was a bit much. In my opinion, a reasonable company would just accept responsibility and waive the second trip fee. Or at least offer to split it. But not these guys. They dug their trench and they weren't coming out. It was childish and stupid and I'm embarrassed for them. And to boot, the people they sent out to finish up the job were jerks. One of them was yelling and cussing at somebody on their phone like a crazy person in my garage. Honestly, these guys are like school on a Sunday -- no class. I guess this is what happens when you get to be a popular company. Customer service and basic decency goes out the window because what do you care, you have plenty of business. Right? Yeah right.

So I was in the process of adding a Tesla Wall Connector to my home. I sent out a request to three…read moredifferent companies ( all Tesla Certified installers ). All were prompt in their responses and provided well written proposals. Only Grayzer included the cost of a permit in their proposal. Further a friend had their wall panel upgraded and their Tesla Wall Connector installed by Grayzier and recommended them highly. After looking at the reviews for the different certified installers, and given that a permit is required in my town to install an EV charger, I went with Grayzer. They provided a date and service window ( a week in advance of my appointment ) and the electrician, Max, pinged me about an hour prior to his arrival. I showed Max my ideal location for the Tesla Wall Connector and he was able to accommodate without having to cut away any drywall or running conduit outside the wall ( YMMV ). Very friendly, professional and knowledgable. He took the information/pictures required by Tesla and by my town's permitting authority, commissioned the Wall Connector, showed my how to add it to the Tesla Application on my iPhone and verified that it was charging at the specified rate (48 amps). He was happy to answer any questions I might have, and I am just delighted by the service and work done. I would recommend highly to friends, neighbors, et al. All in all, quick, fast, efficient, and professional. Cleaned up work area when done. Thank you!

I didn't have the same experience as others unfortunately…read more I had a dryer that wasn't heating. I called a repairman who said the dryer was only getting 120V and that I need to ask an electrician. I called Luis and he was very prompt and came out in a few hours even though it was Saturday. I have concrete floors with epoxy coating that scratch easy. I asked Luis if he could move the dryer on Ram Board I provided to prevent scratching, and he said he doesn't do that. All he had to do is slide it on the cardboard I have. Instead he slid the dryer on the floor and scratched it. He tested the outlet and showed me it's giving 240W, charged me a service fee, and said to contact the repairman again. Frustrated, I called another repairman who did a simple jiggle on the plug and saw it was causing voltage fluctuation because the receptacle was loose. He changed the receptacle and all was well. This is what I expected Luis to do - basic troubleshooting - instead of quickly saying not his problem. Instead all I got was a $100 service fee and scratched floors from him.

Luis is a wonderful person and an excellent professional. We had other quotes for our project, but…read morewhen Luis came over we were blown away by all his knowledge. He answered all our questions and made us feel reassured at all times. No upselling, 100% honesty (he even caught something our builder missed and he was honest enough to let us use the warranty instead of selling his services for it...). We couldn't be happier about the result and the whole process. Luis an his assistant installed 3 pendant lights over our kitchen island and one chandelier over the dining table. No pre-existing wiring prior this process.

The team arrived right on time. James and Kyle from Texas Electrical Services came out to our house in Cedar Park to do some electrical work. They replaced two faulty breakers and replaced some broken wall outlets. They fixed two light fixtures that were not working properly. They were very pleasant and respectful. Both communicated very well and were patient with our questions. They worked very fast but with quality. Everything was done well, exceeding my expectations. Their pricing was very clear and fair. I highly recommend Texas Electrical Services of Austin. They are now my electricians for life.

We hired Austin's Texas Electrical Services of Austin (TECL #29127). One part of this was…read moreinstalling an outdoor outlet, which requires running a conduit. For this they used a flex conduit and to hold the flex conduit outdoor-rated fasteners need to be used. This was clearly not the case, as there is corrosion and rust clearly visible on the fasteners that were used to hold the conduit (see pictures). I'm sure of this because we also had conduit installed by another electrical contractor for another purpose on a similar exterior wall on the other side of the house that has zero corrosion on it. I reached out to them several times over the span of 4 weeks regarding this, and didn't hear back once. I also specifically remember that the person sent out to do the work was very rude and difficult to work with. This was particularly relevant for hanging a chandelier, since it ended up crooked and he didn't ask for feedback until after he had already taken down his scaffolding, and wasn't willing to put it back up. So to this day we still have a misaligned chandelier. Cost isn't all that matters. For what this level of quality you're better off either learning to DIY, or paying more to hire a better company if you want everything done right and good customer service.

Prices are PERFECT! +Human green Flag off the chart! Owner & co-worker are AMAZING humans The owner named the company after his son. I love that. He also mentors youth to help increase the younger gens in the electric trade; so PURE. I have Anxiety & Adult ADHD and I am just getting to the point of publicly stating this (as if everyone around me didn't know for years). The Yelp community has helped me deal with the forced contractor interactions because after all, the home improvements HAVE to get done. Knowing you have a solid, reputable contractor by a huge group of the YELP community takes a lot of that anxiety away. I researched Bear here on Yelp & the company was even BETTER than the 5 star reviews. I had overslept due to said anxiety keeping me up until 4am the night before. They waited for me patiently when I didn't answer the door, didn't answer the phone, or respond the text. I was KNOCKED OUT & didn't hear my 5 alarms! I did however hear my cat HOWLING telling me, WOMAN GET YOUR #### UP! Bear Could have easily just left. I had been holding off on getting these things done due to said anxiety so going thru finding someone else & scheduling again would have been pure horror for me. I am so grateful they were EARLY & had some extra time to wait for me. I also had a big event (Yelpies) the same day so I was so concerned about being late but Bear was 15 mins early which to them is how they operate. They had my 8 requests we aligned on up & memorized. They have a process & the output is QUALITY and beating customer expectations. I promise you this company will beat your expectations. If you are curious what they did for me, below is my list: 1. Take down a pendant light & put back up std light / cover 2. Check Fluorescent lights where light bulbs changed but won't come on; fuse may need changed (Garage & Laundry Rm) 4. Check why power is out in 3 outlets in Kitchen / Dining room 5. Replace light plate in kitchen 6. Change light bulbs pendant that is high up in front of stairs in foyer 7.

From the very beginning, Raptor Electrical restored our confidence. Their team brought together some of the best subcontractors and employees we could have hoped for. Every person who worked on our home was not only highly skilled, but also consistently kind and attentive to even the smallest details. It was clear throughout the process that they truly cared about the quality of their work and about doing things the right way. Having them in our home felt easy and reassuring, which meant a lot after our earlier experience. We always felt comfortable trusting them with the project, and the final result reflects their craftsmanship and dedication.
