    Frank called us immediately after leaving our contact information on his website. He was able to give us some suggestions over the phone to resolve our issue! If you think you need an electrician call Frank first!

  • Review 2 (2024-09-25 - Rating: 5)

    Overall experience was great! Frank and his son were both friendly and professional. They helped resolve our electrical issue quickly and made sure they got down to the root cause.

    I called Frank about a week ago to install a 62” ceiling fan in my front office and replace a light fixture in the master bathroom. After reviewing some pictures I sent and a few video chats, he was able to give me a quote on the work. Price was very reasonable for what I was asking so he got me on his schedule.The quality of work is fantastic. Frank and his other electrician partner, Javier, got the job knocked out in a few hours and managed to get the fan set up despite some tricky attic setup in our house.If you want the job done right the first time, and want it to look great, I strongly recommend A1.

    We sensed a burning smell and noticed that our outlet was burning. It is difficult to get a professional electrician support at Saturday afternoon. Luckily we found Frank after tried 7 calls to different stores listed on google map. Frank told us he was actually watching tv at home but he is willing to help us solving this critical issue. He quickly solved it professionally and saved our weekend. Thank you Frank!

    A1 came out today. Did great job, cleaned up after themselves. Very professional. Very small price, highly recommend them.

    If you need an electrician, then Frank is your guy. I recently purchased a home with an old electrical panel that needed to be upgraded and he completed the job at a reasonable price and in a timely manner. I highly recommend Frank! Here is a picture of the old panel and the new panel he installed! Thanks Frank!

  • Review 7 (2025-01-05 - Rating: 5)

    Frank gave great advice when my partial electricity went out. He advised me on the phone and did not charge anything. He also gave me an overview of his business practice which is very impressive. Thanks Frank

  • Review 8 (2023-03-31 - Rating: 5)

    Frank installed a new electrical panel and did an amazing job. We had a small hiccup due to the way our pool was wired on our old panel. Called Frank and he promptly figured out the problem and fixed it. It’s a good feeling when you can count on an electrician to stand behind their work with a lifetime warranty! Definitely recommend!

  • Review 9 (2023-08-13 - Rating: 5)

    Frank did a great job installing a 240V outlet for EV charging in our garage. Everything works flawlessly.He even squeezed us in and got the job done on a Saturday, with 106F...Thanks again!

  • Review 10 (2024-02-22 - Rating: 5)

    Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Diagnosed my problem over the phone without having to make a service call or charge me any money. He wasn’t concerned with making money off of me, just genuinely wanted to help, which is hard to find these days.

  • Review 11 (2023-01-14 - Rating: 5)

    Instead of reaching out to a large company and $200 plus for a service call I called A1. Frank directed me to troubleshoot before coming out ( and charging for a service call). The troubleshooting solved the problem!! When I advised Frank I felt guilty for not paying for a service call, he shared that “doing the right thing/ being fair” has always worked for him and allowed him to build a successful business from word of mouth. I would highly recommend Frank if you are looking for highly skilled, honest, ethical and fair for commercial or residential projects.

  • Review 12 (2019-10-05 - Rating: 5)

    Frank (the owner and master electrician at A1 Ability) was absolutely incredible to work with! We just bought our first home and had some issues with our electric running to our a/c. We called through our home warranty and they diagnosed the issue but tried to up sell us to the tune of $750 for “uncovered by warranty” services we felt we didn’t need. We called Frank for a second opinion and he arrived at our home within two hours and confirmed that we didn’t need such extensive work done. He fixed it the same night at a fair price and warranted his work. Saved us around $600 and our ac is up and running again! I’d recommend working with Frank to anyone! We now have a trusted electrician to do business with in the future with the peace of mind that he won’t oversell us or try and do unnecessary work!

  • Review 13 (2024-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    Frank did a great job. He was efficient and got the job done properly. And he was able to come out sooner than other companies.

  • Review 14 (2024-10-05 - Rating: 5)

    Frank knew his stuff. Fixed my wires within minutes. Very friendly man.

  • Review 15 (2020-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Frank came to fix a dryer outlet and a light fixture in our home. He came on short notice and got everything taken care of in short order. He stayed to make sure our dryer would run without tripping the panel just in case there was a larger issue at hand-very thorough! Frank was easy to work with and Id reccomend him for your home electric needs.

  • Review 16 (2018-08-28 - Rating: 5)

    Frank is exactly who you call for quality work completed in a timely manner. If youre making aesthetic upgrades to your home, Frank is an excellent choice because he will help you plan where lighting needs to be placed for what appropriate situation and is up-to-date with contemporary home trends. I was really surprised he felt my ceiling fan was a bit outdated - I thought so too, but many people would consider it to be cosmetically sufficient. We brought him in to install recessed lights and he did a beautiful job. If youre trying to upgrade your home, his fair prices and expertise are the perfect attributes needed to get the job done correctly. We now have an electrician for life.

  • Review 17 (2024-12-16 - Rating: 5)

    Talked with him on the phone and he helped me fix the issue with no charge!

  • Review 18 (2021-03-07 - Rating: 5)

    I can’t say enough good things about Frank and A1 Ability Electric! Frank is professional, very knowledgeable, and confident in his work. He took a stressful situation for us and fixed it right up. The work was done professionally and the price was very reasonable too! I highly recommend Frank / A1 Ability Electric and plan to use them in the future.

  • Review 19 (2022-10-07 - Rating: 5)

    Frank was very professional and experienced. My home is 40 years old and needs care. Frank handled the job without difficulty. I plan to use him for my electric needs and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

  • Review 20 (2019-02-21 - Rating: 5)

    We needed a good electrician to do some work and Frank really came through for us. We just met him by finding him on google and he came out same day, came up with a reasonable solution for our electrical needs and offered it at a fair price. Best of all he did the work same day and did a great Job. I strongly suggest using Frank and his company.

  • Review 21 (2022-02-13 - Rating: 5)

    Frank came out and installed a dedicated 20 amp circuit I needed. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and responsive. He did the job exactly as promised and quoted, and the dedicated circuit is working great. I will definitely use Frank again if I have any other electrical needs.

  • Review 22 (2020-06-26 - Rating: 5)

    Called Frank about an outlet not working in my laundry room. Asked to see a photo of the panel, which I thought I checked and didn’t see a tripped breaker switch. Sure enough he spotted a tripped one and asked us to turn off then back on, and the outlet works! I feel like most companies would have come out anyways and charged a service fee, but I appreciate Frank just helping me over the phone! Will definitely reach out in the future.

  • Review 23 (2018-07-21 - Rating: 5)

    We called Frank yesterday, and he came to the house and gave us a quote for installing a 220v line to the patio. He purchased necessary material last night; came early this Saturday morning to avoid as much heat as possible. Thorough and careful work was done in the two hours he estimated and the quoted price was what we paid. Will definitely call him again when we need an electrician.

  • Review 24 (2022-06-16 - Rating: 5)

    Frank is highly responsive and competent. He quickly identified and fixed my electrical problem and I highly recommend him! I was so impressed I even scheduled a second appointment to get a different issue taken care of!

  • Review 25 (2020-02-28 - Rating: 5)

    Called about a power outage at our new home and Frank was able to help us figure out the issue right over the phone at no charge without a visit. He was very helpful and knowledge and saved us a lot of trouble. Loved his honesty.

  • Review 26 (2020-06-14 - Rating: 5)

    Frank is a Master electrician for sure! He helped me understand what work he was doing. Frank also is very easy going and a joy to chat with. I would give him a 10 out of 10 along with this 5 star review. Very pleased.

  • Review 27 (2022-07-29 - Rating: 4)

    Frank helped me on a Sunday morning and replaced the AC breaker. He was able to replace it within an hour so I could then get my AC Unit replaced. He is kind man and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him. Linda S

    Had a power issue with my outlets and back door light. Frank was very helpful and provided great service in resolving the problem. Even gave some tips on how to handle myself if it happens again.

  • Review 32 (2016-04-25 - Rating: 5)

    I had some work done by Frank at our home in Carrollton, he is very knowledgeable and professional. He does not cut corners and does the job the way it is supposed to be done. He took care of everything we needed and also let us know that work was not necessary on a few items (I appreciate his honesty instead of doing unnecessary extra work for a higher bill). I would definitely use him again highly recommend him!

  • Review 33 (2022-07-21 - Rating: 5)

    Late one night after a 100+ degrees day we lost power in the house. I called a couple other electricians prior to being able to find Franks contact info and was quoted as high as $1500-$2500 to replace a single 200 Amp main power breaker because they werent that common. They wanted to price it as high as what they thought the market could bear. I was actually told this which was disturbing to hear. I understand supply and demand but this was ridiculous. Frank came over the next day to install the breaker which was less than $200 from the parts house he uses. He found the problem was actually less severe and only required changing out a 60 Amp breaker which powered a sub panel. Frank is prompt and very professional. His work is thorough, priced fairly and his 40 years of experience really shows! I will definitely call Frank at A-1 Ability Electric in the future when electrical problems arise.

  • Review 34 (2017-04-04 - Rating: 4)

    I appreciated the quick response to my call. He came the same morning and worked with my schedule. However, the price was outrageous. He came over to my home and charged me $125 to press reset on a plug. I realize that was a service call, but since he was in and out within 15 minutes, and there were no parts, I would hope he would adjust the price for that. After the he told me the price, he said I know thats expensive but Id never make any money if I didnt charge that. Id just be helping a lot of people out. It just left a bad taste in my mouth and honestly I felt a little cheated. But I did learn a lesson and know now to check the plug switches. Ive always been weary of anything electrical due to fire potential, and I do appreciate him taking the time to thoroughly check and make sure nothing major was going on.

  • Review 35 (2019-08-01 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 42 (2021-12-14 - Rating: 5)

    Frank and Javier did my generator wiring, installed my transfer switch, handled all the permitting, and got it green-tagged on the first try. They scheduled the work quickly, got it done relatively fast, and were tidy about doing it. They met the inspector and got it approved in one try. Sounds weird to say, but the wiring looks nice. Its well done.

    Was woken up at 1am by a fire alarm going off in our bedroom. A plug with nothing plugged in was smoking and glowing red, shut the power off. Researched some companies and came across A1. Phoned them in the morning and spoke to Frank. Pleasant conversation and he was at my house in less than a hour to take care of us! Thank you A1!

  • Review 67 (2023-09-02 - Rating: 5)

    I called early in the morning, the electrician answered (not a robot or a salesperson), and after a quick explanation of my issue - he knew exactly what the problem was. Told me I just needed Oncor to come out and do repairs. Later in the day A1 called me back to make sure I was up and running. Great customer service, and an honest electrician not trying to make a quick buck. Highly recommend.

    Another electrician bailed out on a job that they didn’t do correctly.I called and got in touch with Frank after trying a couple of other electricians last minute that wasn’t able to help. Frank was wrapping up another job and was happy to help me on very short notice. He was a life saver since we needed everything taken care for a next-morning inspection. He was professional, and most importantly did things correctly. Doing business with Frank was hassle free!Not only was the work effective, but I was happy with the pricing. I will definitely be keeping Frank’s contact and would definitely refer him to anyone else.

  • Review 74 (2019-02-20 - Rating: 5)

    Frank saved me hundreds of dollars! I needed to upgrade my amp output for a new oven I bought. Frank looked at the breaker box and discovered the existing wiring had the capacity for increase amp needed. Other companies would have charged me to rewire the whole line, but Frank just switched out the amp fuse. This saved me big! Fair, Honest, Reliable!
