I called TEC to do a number of minor electrical repairs and updates at an Austin home. Things like replacing light bulbs that were 10 feet high and out of my reach, replacing a few existing ceiling recessed lights with LEDs, replacing a motion detection light on a stairway that wasn't working, replacing an outdoor GFCI outlet, and troubleshoot a couple outlets that weren't working. I had already purchased all the needed fixtures.
Instead of sending an electrician to do the work, they first sent someone to scope out the project. This was done in order that a quote could be provided. This troubleshooting service costs $150.
Three days after the troubleshooting visit, I still had not received a quote. I contacted the office and was told the quote would be sent by the end of the day. I did not receive the quote on that day, but the afternoon the next day.
The quote that I finally received, which was for labor only, had the following pricing:
- Replacement of two light bulbs - $175
- Replacement of six existing recessed lights with LED's - $810 ($135 ea)
- Replacement of stairway motion detection light - $250
- Replace outdoor GFCI outlet - $185
- Troubleshoot of two GFCI outlets not working $150
In total, TEC wanted $1,560 on top of the $150 I had already paid them. So over $1,700 for minor electrical repairs. Something I figured should have taken no more than 3-4 hours to complete. I found this estimate to be very expensive and decided to look elsewhere.
After complaining about how things were initially handled and various other misunderstandings, I did receve a refund for the $150 troubleshooting fee. The manager and employees were very nice and genuinely wanted to please but, in the end, their cost was just too expensive in my opinion.
My advice is find an electrician that charges by the hour for work performed, and avoid anyone that wants to charge a fee just for providing a quote.

my experience was very good. they promptly responded to my message and the two electricians came early in the time window. they performed the service (replacing my hardwired smoke alarms) in a professional manner. I will definitely use them again.

Texas electrical connect helped us install new brakers due to previous wrong brakers. They were very efficient, communicative and quick to the job site!

I had sent a request for an electrical project and Texas Electrical Connect responded right away. They were prompt and right on time for their appointment. The tech that came, Fernando, was extremely professional and friendly. He thoroughly explained everything he did to address my request and took time to answer any questions I had. They were so great to work with and I'm already looking forward to booking another project with them. I highly recommend Texas Electrical Connect.

Fernando came out when I had a breaker trip at my house and was able to very quickly diagnose the issue. He was able to fix it on the spot and gave me all the info needed to avoid the issue (and an electrical fire) in the future. Super professional and very reasonably priced. 10/10 thanks, Fernando!
