    I’ve used Residential Electrical Services on two different occasions now. Both times, they were very responsive and communicated well. The service person sent to the home was personable, knowledgeable, and did a great job. They also provided an upfront estimate and went above and beyond afterward to make sure we were happy with the job, even coming back a second time and doing additional work (due to a misunderstanding on my part) without any additional charge. I strongly recommend this company and will certainly use them again in the future.

    I received three quotes for the work and RES was the clear winner. They were also able to complete the work in a timely manner. Our electrical panel was updated and brought up to code including the Firemans Cutoff and surge protector. They arrived early and were ready to work. They did an excellent job of labeling the breakers, something that was missing from the original installation. The electrical inspector came by and approved the work indicating that this company does good work.

    We had Billy put in an inverter for us. Install looks clean. We had an issue with the hardware (out of his control) some time later and he agreed to correct it no questions asked. I recommend his work.

    Excellent service by the entire team from scheduling with Billy, to the men installing our interlock and 50amp inlet for our generator. They took the time to train portable generator hook up and breaker management on the generator. Affordable pricing, very responsive, great services.

    I prefer to use local and family owned small businesses when I can. I recently had RES out to quote some electrical work and they came the same day and quoted a fair price. They showed up the next day to do the work and were able to complete the job in less time than quoted and for less money as well! Josh and Clayton were extremely professional and personable, a pleasure to deal with such great employees. I highly recommend using these guys for any of your electrical projects/repairs.

  • Review 6 (2023-07-06 - Rating: 5)

    These guys took care of us 100%. The communication was on a whole other level. We never had to reach out for an update, they beat us to it. Busted their butts during the hottest part of the year so far. Excellent team, and fair pricing. Not the cheapest quote we received but the materials were a higher grade, and they took care of everything. I really cannot say enough about how happy we are with the work and service of RES. Definitely going to reach out for future needs.

    Based on the reviews for this company and to support local as well, I decided to use RES. Absolute professionalism! From response time to service! Mr Billy (despite being the owner with a full schedule) patiently answered my questions and provided excellent service. Mika also was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable about my questions re: future jobs. 100% satisfied; RES earned a returning client!

  • Review 8 (2024-07-29 - Rating: 5)

    Put in a new outdoor electrical outlet to replace the old one. Excellent, quick work at a good price. Thank you, Billy! :)

  • Review 9 (2023-09-22 - Rating: 5)

    Called RES to diagnose an electrical issue. They came out the same day, provided an estimate for work the same day, and started and finished the job the next day. Billy explained everything in advance and answered all of my questions. His crew is knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. One of the guys even put away my outdoor umbrella that had fallen over. The excavators were neat even though digging is dirty work, and after the inspector left, the crew put everything back and made sure it was all tidy just like before. I hope I dont need any more electrical work, but if I do, Billy/RES will be my first call!

  • Review 10 (2024-08-31 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent communication and customer service! They worked diligently to solve an issue we had and followed up after the work was complete!

  • Review 11 (2017-09-07 - Rating: 5)

    After reviewing high recommendations for RES, I called for help. Gratefully, Billy came to my rescue during Hurricane Harvey. He maintained constant communication with me until it was safe to do the work. Billy kept me informed with daily communication with the power company and had the city inspector on board for the first safe chance to repair my home (A downed tree pulled my electrical panel away from the house). He and his crew did exceptional work. He kept me in the loop at every phase and also of the pricing. I compared his cost and it was very reasonable. I feel very fortunate to have found this company. This was a stressful situation and Billys professionalism and constant communication put me at ease. I highly recommend RES without any reservations. This is an honest company. I cant thank Billy and his crew enough.

  • Review 12 (2020-08-06 - Rating: 5)

    I have used RES several times over the last 6 years and have always been very happy with the service provided. They are responsive when I call, show up when they say and I feel their work is done in a professional manner. We have had them run service underground between our home to a garage, install wiring/lights in a garage, install outdoor fixtures and make numerous repair calls for things that fail in our 44 year old home. I recommend them to my neighbors and have heard back that they are as pleased as we are.

  • Review 13 (2022-11-07 - Rating: 5)

    Billy is honest, punctual and best for electric problems. He gave us an estimate over the phone, came down to calculate and had back up option if we needed to change conduit. His team is professional and very friendly. He finished job on time and easy to work with.i highly recommend him.

  • Review 14 (2020-07-09 - Rating: 5)

    We had a new service panel installed on our 50 year old house and from the quote to completion the experience was outstanding!Their pricing was fair with the quote accurate and no nickel and diming, the crew were professional and they cleaned up afterward.They got the city permit, worked with the power company and we didnt have to do anything.Mika and Billy were a pleasure to work with.Using RES was a great choice for us.We highly recommend them.

  • Review 15 (2023-09-13 - Rating: 5)

    RESs professionalism, knowledge, and integrity is second to none. They recently completed two jobs at my house. They were courteous and went out of their way to ensure my wife and I understood our options.Additionally, when most companies shy away from pulling permits and having their work inspected, RES did the opposite. This provides great peace of mind for my family and I.Morad Kabiri

  • Review 16 (2020-08-24 - Rating: 5)

    The folks at RES came to my house to install a 220V outlet in my garage.I inadvertently sent them the wrong photo of the breaker box and they were still able to do the install for the same price even though it cost them extra time and material. The job was still done professionally and per the codes. I have no complaints on their excellent workmanship and appreciate that they were understanding of my spotty schedule availability. You can tell the folks at RES are honest and care about their reputation with the community. Even competing electricians bidding for the work had told me that they were a good outfit.

  • Review 17 (2022-01-07 - Rating: 5)

    This is the second time Ive used RES. They do a great job diagnosing problems and implementing the correct solution. They moved a light switch with complicated wiring and restored power to my driveway gate.Previously, I had them install full house surge protectors. On that occasion, they noticed that some of the wiring in my breaker panel was incorrect and they fixed it at no additional cost.They are in high demand, no doubt because of the quality of service they provide, so it takes a little bit to get on the schedule. But its been worth it every time.

  • Review 18 (2020-10-05 - Rating: 5)

    We are very pleased with RES electricians. Billy, the owner made an initial visit to our house in order to determine the scope of our needs and to explain various options for the repairs and work that we were requesting. He is very thorough and patient and sent us an estimate of cost within a few days. The electricians, scheduled to do the work were on time, very knowledgeable, professional and performed the repairs and installation in an orderly manner, letting us know what they would be working on. We are very pleased with the work that they did for us. They are our go to electricians! We recommend them to everyone! Great team!

  • Review 19 (2018-04-06 - Rating: 5)

    I contacted RES for a 2nd opinion. Another electrician came to check an outlet that sparked when a laptop was plugged in. He tightened the lose wire, then strongly recommended I replace all the outlets in the house and the breaker box. I called RES and was immediately impressed with their professionalism and responsiveness. Billy checked the outlet and suggested using a surge protector. He looked through the house, and the outlets and breaker box are fine. I was very impressed. I will definitely use RES for any electrical needs. It is refreshing to find a service professional with integrity.

  • Review 20 (2020-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    I would first like to thank everyone for the reviews they took time to write about this family owned business. We had a breaker box and panel replaced recently. I am happy to join you all in this long list of happy, relieved, and loyal customers. They did the same exact thing for less than half of the bigger companies. They were fast, efficient, and clean. Highly recommend!Edit; they also installed 5 ceiling fans so quickly, it was clear they have loads of experience.

  • Review 21 (2023-08-18 - Rating: 5)

    The RES team took care of our issue quickly with great results. The crew kept us informed and completed the work quickly and professionally. I would highly recommend them.

  • Review 22 (2022-10-24 - Rating: 5)

    I just wanted to thank Billy for his help and honesty. I had a busted landscape light, and Billy told me that I would be better off calling a landscaping company, and even recommended the one that was able to come out and help me with my issue the next day. I will be calling RES next time I have an indoor electrical issue and Ill be recommending him to others!

  • Review 23 (2019-10-30 - Rating: 5)

    Great service from a very experienced and professional group. Billy virtually diagnosed the problem during our first conversation. Every step in the repair was clearly communicated. I would not hesitate to use RES again or recommend them to others.

  • Review 24 (2020-01-23 - Rating: 5)

    I had an excellent service experience with RES. Josh, the electrician sent to my home, arrived ten minutes early, he wasted no time while on the job and demonstrated a high level of competence tracking down and correcting the fault in my wiring, which was no where near the inoperable wall outlet in my bathroom. All of my outlets are once again functional. If I ever need electrical work done in the future RES will be my first call. Thanks again!

  • Review 25 (2015-09-20 - Rating: 5)

    RES did a great job doing our electrical work. At first the job was not performed to our total satisfaction. When we asked them to alter the project to our specifications, they did it without any extra charge or hassle. This is a VERY well run family business that prioritizes customer satisfaction. I will definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommend RES!!

  • Review 26 (2018-04-02 - Rating: 5)

    The day I could re-enter my home after it was flooded by Hurricane Harvey, I tried calling several electricians to find someone who could help me safely turn back on the breaker of my home. Billy not only answered the phone, but stayed on the line with me and patiently talked me through the process. I knew when the time came for electrical work to be done in our rebuild that I wanted to use Residential Electrical Services. They came out last week to repair some things damaged by a former contractor & were just as easy/pleasant as Billy had been over the phone in August. Thank you for the excellent work & fair price!

  • Review 27 (2015-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    I cannot say enough good things about Billy and his crew at RES. The light fixtures in my Master Bathroom went out and I was not able to troubleshoot the issue on my own. Contacted Billy and he showed up the next day, ahead of schedule. He promptly diagnosed and corrected the issue, and took the time to explain everything to me along the way. Billy, and his assistant Josh, were both very knowledgeable and courteous. I will definitely be using them again for any electrical needs.

  • Review 28 (2024-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    RES is beyond legit. I needed a 50 amp inlet/interlock switch installed on my breaker box. I got a fast, no nonsense quote for a fair price.The guys came out and did a great job! It didnt take long, and once completed they took the time to explain everything and test the system with my generator. They also added instructions to the back of the breaker box door.Ill look to RES for any future electrical work and I highly recommend them.

  • Review 29 (2018-03-14 - Rating: 5)

    I called Billy at Residential Electric Services (RES) about replacing an old ballast for my fluorescent light fixture with a new and more energy efficient ballast. The problem I ran into was going from 8 wires down to 5. I drew a schematic of how I thought the wiring should look with the new ballast. Even with the help of YouTube videos, I wasnt 100% convinced I had it right. Billy asked me to text him photos of my fluorescent light fixture with the old ballast plus my schematic. Shortly afterwards he called me back and walked my through exactly how the wiring should be set up. I did as he instructed and it worked like a charm. That is what I call excellent customer service. I was more than willing to have someone from his staff come out to the house to swap out the ballast. In the future, if I run into an electrical issue I cant handle, my first call will be RES.

  • Review 30 (2018-03-22 - Rating: 5)

    I found myself with a relatively minor, but very frustrating electrical situation while remodeling a house. I called RES over the weekend and was able to make an appointment for Monday, at which point the problem was fixed completely and promptly. Customer service and scheduling was excellent, the technician was effective, and pricing was very reasonable. I would use again and highly recommend.

  • Review 31 (2020-10-22 - Rating: 5)

    Great family run business. They did a complete panel upgrade and their quote was $100s lower than the other bids. Josh was super professional and went above and beyond. Dont hesitate, call RES for all your electrical needs.

  • Review 32 (2018-04-16 - Rating: 5)

    If I could give RES more than five stars, I definitely would! Honesty goes a long way with me. Billy and Santos figured out the problem and fixed it. Very quick to respond and followed through. Very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend them and will use them again in the future!

  • Review 33 (2023-10-11 - Rating: 5)

    They performed great work in a timely manner. Answered all of my questions and were very polite.Work performed included replacing a 50 year old breaker box that insurance considered a fire hazard. Adding a new grounding rod. Labeling all breakers in the breaker box. Rewiring the AC power supply that the last owners butchered.

  • Review 34 (2020-08-12 - Rating: 5)

    This company is very professional. They fixed issues that we had just paid another electrician to repair, and we didnt want him back. We are very happy we were referred to RES. We will use them again.

  • Review 35 (2019-08-23 - Rating: 5)

    Not at all surprised these guys have a perfect rating. Theyre pros, from start to finish. I had the job I wanted thought out, and they actually recommended an alternative that saved me money! Who does that nowadays?! Had them out for 2 jobs, and I intend to have them out for all electrical work in the future. I wrote this review completely voluntarily (they didnt ask me to, didnt provide any discounts for doing so, etc.).

  • Review 36 (2019-04-19 - Rating: 5)

    Agree with all the other 5 star reviews. Called to request a service and he made a recommendation to another company because the type of service I need (very unique), he doesnt have the equipment to do the most thorough job on so he referred me to a company that specializes in my need! AMAZING. He could have easily come out and completed an inspection and fooled me completely. HOW would I have ever known that I needed someone else? I will definitely use him for ALL my other electrical needs. Billy sounds like a real STAND up guy!! :)

  • Review 37 (2018-12-12 - Rating: 5)

    I contacted this company to see what could be done about a circuit panel that appeared to be overloaded in a new home I purchased and wanted to see about having a larger electrical panel installed. Billy answered my call and was EXTREMELY helpful. He talked me through all of my questions and assured me that the condition that my panel was in was completely normal. I wanted to add another 220 breaker to my panel for my compressor, and he assured me that because of intermittent loading it would be fine to do so. He effectively talked himself out of a job, but boy, was I thankful for his wisdom. It is hard to find this kind of service these days... I didn’t have him do any work, but I assure you, based on my conversation, Billy runs a great shop, and cares about much more than making a quick buck. Thanks Billy!

  • Review 38 (2018-05-04 - Rating: 5)

    I called RES about an electrical problem and they were able to come the next morning to check on it. The electrician they sent out was here on time, found the problem almost immediately and replaced the defective outlet that had caused all of the lighting in one bedroom to go off. I have many nightmare stories about tradesmen I have used since moving here in 2009, but thankfully RES is not one of them. I highly recommend them to anyone needing electrical assistance and would give them 10 stars if I could!

  • Review 39 (2022-06-01 - Rating: 5)

    Left a message for RES about my service underground not working they called me back immediately and instructed me to see what Centerpoint had to say about the problem, it turns out Centerpoint found broken wire within two feet of Transformer Pad and fixed it. Thanks for the information and I will definitely use RES in the future

Getting a quote was easy - I just filled out the request form on their website and they scheduled a day with me to come out. The quote was reasonable and very clear on the scope of work. RES arrived right on time, completed the work quickly, and did a great job. Ill be using RES in the future!
