Very knowledgeable and communicative. Inspected more than just the problem areas and let us know what was going on with our wiring. Educated us on the why the issue was happening in the first place and gave different avenues to fix the problems depending on what we wanted our focus to be. Very professional and considerate. If you need a personable electrician, Joshua is the person for you! read more

After we installed the device Joshua recommended the doorbell chime started making some awful noises. I disconnected a wire and sent Joshua a message. He responded first thing the next morning and we set up a time for him to come check it out. He arrived at the agreed upon time and found that the transformer for the doorbell wasn't no longer functioning. Thinking ahead ,he picked up a replacement on the way to our house. He replaced the transformer and bypassed the mechanical chime for the Ring doorbell. Problem solved. He didn't charge us for the transformer, as it was most likely an issue during his previous service call. My home will be needing some GFI outlet replacements in the near future and I will be trusting Promise Land for all of my electrical needs. If you want an electrician with integrity reach out to Joshua at Promise Land. read more

Had a problem with our well storage tank on a Sunday afternoon, and Promised Land looked, well, promising. Joshua came out, did a breaker replacement, did a quick cleanup on some power lines, and kept his visit here fast (because of Sunday night rates). Still had problems, so he came back the next morning to do the work he told me I needed the night before (wasn't time to do it then). Worked fast, cheerfully, and got things working correctly. Great communication, and prices were good (like what we have paid for other work). We have his number saved and passed it around to our neighbors. read more

Loved the clarity, timeliness, and the prompt communication. Once Joshua showed up, we ran a quote and it was by far the most reasonable price for an extremely comprehensive job. We then scheduled a work session, and his communication on timing was perfect, as I am always super busy so having a clear idea of timing is very important. The job itself was then done extremely professionally, cleanly, and aesthetically great as well, with everything working perfectly - I had a lot of questions as I am setting up a whole system with spa type appliances (sauna, cold plunge, etc...) - so we were able to map out and strategize everything in the best way to not blow fuses later and make sure everything is safe, effective, and optimized. His vibe is also great and positive and easy to work with, so overall just a super positive experience and def would recommend to anyone in the Austin area. read more

Excellent service. Great communication. No "add ons". Was able to provide a preliminary "guesstimate" and price range based on a photo. Kept the promise AND was super fast. In addition, provided some "educational" information. Highly recommend. It's nice to work with trustworthy professionals. read more

Highly recommended, Above my original need he diagnosed a potential issue as well. His work was so professional I scheduled additional work.

Requested quotes from multiple companies and Joshua with Promised Land Electric was the most pleasant interaction all around. He was very responsive and friendly and arrived at our agreed upon time on the dot. He took the time to explain everything to me and was even cautious with my little one running around to make sure he stayed safe around the panel which I appreciated. His pricing was much more reasonable than other quotes I received where they were clearly trying to rip me off. We will continue to use Joshua for future needs! read more

Performed service as requested and promised, very reasonable price and cost. Highly recommend!

My 'SMART' switch was literally ticking very loudly in my house on the morning of Black Friday 2025, like a ticking time bomb that you see in the movies, which was supposed to turn on my porch and garage side light on at dusk and off at dawn. The Honeywell 'Smart' Switch didn't even last a year and because of some defect and was turning my outside lights off and on in every 2 seconds morning, noon and night, which I discovered very early in the morning heading out for Black Friday shopping. Google said because of the ticking sound and lights going on and off, that my switch was shorted out and it could cause an electrical fire. I immediately I called two other electricians that I had saved on my contacts and they wanted to charge me a premium for a holiday call and same day service. One electrical firm that I used before, answered the phone with an AI interface' who cheerfully quoted me an outrageous rate for an 'emergency service' on a holiday. On the other hand, Joshua at Promised Land answered the phone, quoted me a very reasonable rate and changed out the bad ticking SMART switch in less than 10 minutes on Black Friday! One day later, in the evening, I noticed my kitchen lights wouldn't go on and thought it was related to the new switch that Joshua put in the day before. He said he'd come out to check his work and discovered it was actually my fault that the kitchen lights weren't turning on when he noticed that my dining room switch, which also controlled my kitchen light, was stuck in the halfway position (in neither the on or off position). I felt incredibly embarrassed for my mistake. However, before he came to my house to 'fix' my kitchen lights not turning on, I asked him if he could also replace my two kitchen ceiling lights with new ones for his normal fee and he quoted me a very reasonable rate. I immediately ran out to the big orange box hardware store and bought two kitchen ceiling lights to replace the 20 yr old set of track lights and my lurid red pendant lights, which had been installed by the previous owner. Again, Joshua charged me a very reasonable rate to replace these two ceiling lights and diagnosed my kitchen light switch 'not working' (because of me not pushing the light switch down all the way) . In conclusion, compared to the top Yelp Austin electricians with dozens if not 100s of of reviews, I really hit the jackpot with Joshua. I asked him how long he'd been an electrician and he said he had been a licensed electrician for 12 yrs, and used to work for one of the big electrical firms in Austin before starting his own business. In conclusion, Joshua is a consummate professional, very puctual (twice he said he'd be at my house at a specific time and was EXACTLY on time), charges a very reasonable rate for his work compared to other electricians, and is also a great communicator (he called me 30 minutes before arriving to tell me when he'd be at my house). I deleted the three electricians on my 'contacts' list on my moible and my go-to electrician from now on with Joshau at Promised Land Electric. In conclusion, I HIGHLY recommend Promised Land Electric for all your electrical needs. read more
