"This was a fairly large and expensive piece of necessary home maintenance. My home is now 25 years old, and I am the original owner. My main circuit breaker had been "acting up" recently; that is, it randomly failed (opened) as the day proceeded and the temperature rose. It is housed along with all of my other circuit breakers in my main breaker box, which is directly exposed to the early afternoon sun in the late spring and early fall months. Concerned, I did a bit of research online to discover my box likely had reached end-of-life. I called 2 contractors for estimates, and chose West Houston Electric to replace the box. In addition, my original ground rod was disconnected from my home's main grounding lead, which West Houston found when they inspected my box to give me a bid. I was told the original rod was likely galvanized metal provided by the builder, and that it had likely deteriorated significantly over the 25-year life of my house. They also suggested a "whole home" surge protector to minimize the effect of voltage surges that occur, the tech said, on a daily basis. These surges, it was claimed, have a deteriorating effect on any electric devices in my house, especially on "high tech" equipment that utilized chip technology. Both bidding contractors made this claim. I must say I haven't experienced any failures in chip-based technologies in my home. But, my AC compressor, when it comes on, comes on "hard." It must draw a lot of amperage when it cycles on, and it will do so often in the summer months. (I have a "start switch" on it to minimize the abruptness of its operation, but I often wonder what it draws as it is a very loud start.) I chose West Houston Electric to do the work because their competitor found almost $6,000 worth of work to do. To their credit, the tech broke that down to "must haves," "should haves," and "nice to haves." Even so, their bid for the "must haves," the work West Houston performed, was higher. The tech was on time for the scheduled work and seemed quite knowledgeable and likable. The owner had spoken to me on the phone, and came by twice during the work to check on progress. This is a relatively long procedure, by the way. It takes about 4-5 hours start to finish, and your power will be out most of that time. The tech found one more issue that seemed prudent to address regarding a GIF breaker for my pool pump, The competing contractor had suggested that as well. Though the risk is low that a pump failure might cause electricity to flow into my pool, it was the sort of risk that entailed mortality on the down side--that circuit is 220v. It the pump failed, and it caused current to flow into the pool, and anyone was in it, it would be "curtains." If this were to occur, I could not live with myself having chosen to take the risk instead of spending about $400. So, I conceded to add the additional protection. The work proceeded well. The tech and I struck up a good conversation about lawn maintenance, a favorite chore of mine (and his), and it finished up pretty much as we expected. West Houston did a fine job for me. I will use them again as there are always a few more things to be done in a house as old as mine. ("Old" is such an odd description of a house that is 25 years old; but that is Houston for you.)"

"Needed a Tesla wall charger installed at home. I received a few quotes from the companies recommended on the Tesla site. They were either trying to skip steps (not get City permit) or upcharge me for equipment I didn’t need or tell me I needed a new breaker box without full understanding of the load. I then had John from Mr Sparky show up. I didn’t need any of the extras the other companies were trying to upsell me for and he got the charger installed no problem at a fair price. They are trustworthy and do good work. I will use them again for my electrical needs."

"Great customer service, friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. Needed an outlet replaced and install a new dedicated outlet for our travel trailer. Answered all my questions but weren't able to install until the next day, BUT due to my work schedule they accommodated me and were able to install the same day. Excellent work quality and great value to me. Will continue to use A1 as my go-to electrical company."

"Needed outlet installed. Jason and Carmelo initially came out to give estimate. Bid was $250 under other bid I had gotten. Accepted offer and they installed outlet same day. Very pleased with work. Highly recommended."

"I had an electrical outlet installed on my brick fireplace so I could hang my TV up. I was quoted from another company $600 and would have the outlet box exposed from the brick. I used Enoch and it done for $150. Plug looks great! I'll use Enoch anytime I need electric work done."

"First time residential customer here. I had a fantastic experience with Mr. Electric of Houston Midtown, specifically with electricians Franklin and Zack. Franklin was very professional, polite and knowledgeable, he evaluated my situation, advising me of my options and a competitive quote. We agreed and he got right to work with Zack the following Monday. Franklin and Zack were both very polite, professional, meticulous and clearly they take pride in their work. Since there were several new light fixtures being installed, they both communicated clearly and timely to make sure that the fixtures, switches get installed in the preferred locations. Wiring and overall fixtures alignment was perfect. Breaker box is also now up to code with surge protector and grounding wire which was missing. The job was done with such care and expertise that the benefits truly outweigh the cost. It's a worthwhile investment for the betterment and safety of my home. I highly recommend their services! I will definitely use them as my electric company from now on."

"Sean and his men were always on time and did the work for the quote he gave me. They were very professional and wore masks and shoe coverings the whole time they were in my house. They cleaned up any mess that was made and left the house with everything the way it was."
