A home inspector noted some issues with the breaker box that needed fixing. I emailed Billy with the inspector's report and he was able to give me an estimate. The job was done while I was at work so I'm not sure how long it took but everything looks good.

Recently, a couple outlets sparked when a laptop was plugged in. An electrician came to my 40 year old home, looked at one of the outlets and discovered the wires were lose. He fixed the wires, then strongly recommended I replace all the outlets in the house as well as the breaker box. $6500 estimate. This seemed a bit odd to me, as just a year earlier, the house was thoroughly inspected. After he left, I noticed the outlet he repaired still sparked. Unsettled by this and alarmed by his recommendation, I wanted a 2nd opinion and contacted RES. I was immediately impressed with the professionalism and responsiveness. Billy checked the outlets and suggested using surge protectors. He said the house is dated, but the outlets and breaker box are fine and there is no safety risk. If something happens, they will be happy to repair, but all is good. Charge: $0. Super impressed. I will definitely use RES for any electrical needs. It is refreshing to find a service professional with integrity.

Billy said he would send someone first thing in the morning, and that is what he did. The tech was professional, wore booties to protect my carpet and quickly changed both units out. He showed me where on this style unit the battery door for future backup battery changeout is located. To me the original $285 price seemed a bit high, but with the Angie’s List discount it was worth it to have the work completed before the next house guest arrives later today.

I called RES to replace a single circuit breaker at my rental property located in League City. Meeka (sp?), the scheduler, was delightful, very knowledgeable, and prompt in returning calls. In speaking to Meeka, I was confident I had found my go-to electrical company for all my electrical needs for my rental property, as well as friends and family. However, the electrician himself, is a different story. The electrician called my tenant and without diagnosing the problem himself, quoted a price of $1,600 – $2,000. The electrician stated he didn’t have the time to schedule the appointment for an in-person diagnosis. How can you quote a thousand dollar figure without testing a single component of a breaker panel? I was fortunate to not have suffered any damage from Harvey. I can only imagine what this company would charge those in real need for services. Unfortunately, with every major disaster comes unscrupulous home contractors, who prey upon homeowners.
Response from Residential Electrical Svcs, Inc (281)482-VOLT

"I am very sorry there was a misunderstanding. What we gave you was an estimate, not a quote, based on the very detailed information we received from your tenant............................... We tried many times to coordinate with your tenant, at your request. He did not answer and would not return our calls. We were more than willing to send a technician out for an assessment and trouble shooting but your tenant was not communicating with us for scheduling. We continued to reach out to him. When we finally talked to him by phone, we listened to the details he gave and Billy was able to make an assessment by the symptoms your tenant described. Being a Master Electrician with nearly 30 years experience and being familiar with the homes in that area, he was able to determine there was likely an overload issue, based on a discussion with your tenant............................................... There was no point in charging you for a trip out, when we were able to give a verbal estimate. We also learned from your tenant that another local company went out and gave an estimate and recommended the same repairs. When he told us the estimate amount, we said it was a fair price and suggested using them if they were able to get out sooner than we could, as we were experiencing a pretty busy time helping many homeowner who were recovering from Harvey flood damage................................................ We are not "unscrupulous" nor do we "prey on homeowners", or take advantage of those affected by a major disaster. We have family members who were affected by Harvey and we understand the devastation. Fortunately your situation was in no way related to Harvey. It was due to the age of the home and the circuits not being able to handle the appliance load. We have provided service for many people in and around the Friendswood area with flood damaged homes and our service and repair rates have not increased in any way since the disaster. As a matter of fact, right after Harvey, we decided we would not charge any overtime rates on any flood related damages even when we were working 7 days a week, with no weekends off for a period of time................. I am really sorry our effort to give you a free verbal estimate was misunderstood as a high quote. I wish we had been given a chance to show you what good service we provide. I believe there was a misunderstanding, possibly complicated by communicating through a tenant. I do hope you were able to get the issues resolved for your tenant............................... Thank You, Billy."

RES did an excellent job. I called Billy, he came out the same day, and gave me an estimate that evening. It took about a week to get the job scheduled due to logistics and rain. They had to hand dig a trench across my backyard and into my neighbor's yard where the transformer was installed. Billy kept me informed of every step. He and his workers showed up on time and worked about a day and a half. I now have a much nicer installation to my meter than my original 30 year old installation. When Centerpoint came out to look at their transformer, they neglected to tell me that they could run temporary power to my meter. Billy mentioned almost as soon as I saw him. It was a lifesaver since I had no AC and the temperature was in the mid 90"s. I have already recommended RES to several of my friends.

We bought a house which needed considerable electrical service needed. The crews (at least two electricians were always present) were always prompt and worked hard throughout the day. They crawled through the attic during the heat of the day and trudged through mud after a rainstorm while staying courteous and friendly the whole time. Billy and his crew were also thorough in explaining everything to me; even someone with limited understanding of electrical systems could comprehend what was happening. Additionally, Billy was always quick to respond by phone, email, and text message. All work was impeccable, and they caught and fixed many problems that were not initially caught. I have complete confidence in the workmanship of RES, and they will be my first phone call with any additional electrical needs I might have in the future.

It went splendidly well. Robert arrived right on time and got to work right away. He had both fan controllers replaced and installed in a manner of minutes. He was very professional. He even removed his street shoes and left them on the porch before entering the house.I would most definitely recommend this company to someone needing electrical work done and yes, I would hire them again if the need arises. They were very responsive to my needs and had someone out here the very next day. Great service!

RES' estimates were on par with other providers, but the knowledge that was shown during the quoting process made me trust them so much more. The job was completed on time, and a little under budget.

It was was a joy to work with them. From the first telephone call to the completed job, they were extremely professional and always concerned about the quality of work. Billy Mendoza was quick to respond whenever we called. The quote we received was very reasonable and after watching the problems that the guys had removing the old light boxes the quote was remarkable. They are always respectful of myself and my home during the job. They did not leave until they were sure my job was completed to my satisfaction. They are the best. I would recommend them to anyone

Billy told me to check for a tripped GFI. Duh. Forgot about those. Found one on a kitchen wall that had been tripped. Reset it. Still no spark. Billy wondered if the technician had left the range unplugged. Duh #2; I had assumed it was hardwired. Sure enough, the range was not connected. Plugged it in and got sparks. Billy advised monitoring, because something had caused the GFI to trip. I greatly appreciate the diagnostics, professionalism and advice. No charge. Will definitely call them for any future electrical issues of any kind.

RES came out to check out system. Ismael did all the work & he was very meticulously checking everything. He found a few wires which had nicks in them, so for now, it is assumed they were the problem. He suggested not replacing the breaker now, but to see if the his repairs will keep the breaker from tripping. He was very friendly and worked continuously to investigate the problem. He was a very clean worker, which was appreciated. He also arrived right on time. I would use this company & Ismael again.

I HIGHLY recommend Residential Electrical Services. Billy and his team are highly experienced, extremely knowledgeable, courteous and prompt. The team worked together smoothly and they really appeared to enjoy what they are doing. The major repair was the electrical panel box and breakers. There were other electrical issues with the condo which they found and fixed. I felt they listened to my concerns. Communication was great with calls returned quickly. Office staff very helpful.
 If ever I need electrical work performed again I would not hesitate to call them.

Due to the big storm, they were pretty busy and it took a few days for them to be able to come out and do the work. But they kept me updated and let me know they were busy at the time but would get to me as soon as possible. I really appreciated they let me know they didn't forget about me. I was very pleased with the work, they pretty much knew what the problem was before they came out just from my description and they were able to complete the work quickly. Due to the damage from the lightening I plan on doing as they suggested and getting surge protection for my home.
