Get matched with top nest installation pros in League City, TX

"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.)"

"Did tons of research prior to my house alarm purchase. Found out that ADT started in 1874. That was enough longevity for me. Made a call from the number on their website and the rest was a breeze. Many kudos to the helpful salesman on the phone. I’m a happy and proud customer of ADT."

"John is a life saver. I looked everywhere for someone who would do a warranty repair on my 20KW Kohler standby generator. I tried almost every company listed on Kohler's website. Most didn’t service residential units and/or didn’t work on larger units at all. I got the sense that some didn’t want to service units they hadn't installed. I booked a larger repair service on the north side of Houston and called them after three weeks to get an update, but they told me they would no longer be able to come to my area and service my unit. I finally found Mr. Sparky of Clear Lake. John came out quickly and serviced my unit. It took quite a bit of back and forth with Kohler to get the parts, (Kohler issues) but he was able to get us up and running."

"I hired Ozzy’s electrical service to install a 3 phase surge protector on an electrical box for a not-for-profit education center. He provided a quote in writing (via text message) for this and a few other services. Not only did Ozzy (the owner) NOT COMPLETE this service; he told me that I needed an additional service which doubled his original quote. We paid for all of this work including the surge protector even though he did not complete the entire job in one day ( as discussed). It was not until I asked him the location of the surge protector (after he had left the property) that he told me tell that he did not install the surge protector! This was the first thing on my written list for him to complete. He then told me that it would be another $650 to install the surge protector (that I had already paid for)!!!! DO NOT USE OZZY’S ELECTRICAL SERVICE! This is the WORST SERVICE THAT I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED WITH A CONTRACTOR FROM ANGI’S LIST! I wish I could give a zero or negative #!"

"Excellent! Contractor supplied both electrical circuit panel work, power cord, and generator installation and setup. Everything was explained in advance and was done on time. There was a part that came with the generator that was faulty and DM sourced quickly a replacement part in town and got it installed. Everything went perfect with this job and DM was above board!!"

"Trey Macon electrical did a great job,showed up within 30 minutes and saved my dog from being miserable with no air conditioning on a Saturday! If you need electrical work in the Galveston area,he's the man!"

"It was a pleasure doing business with this company. Quoted me a fair price over phone. Hansel answered all my questions. They arrived on time and installed my system without any issues. They are very professional and left no foot print what so ever. This three men crew were very courteous and efficient. I would definitely recommend them without a doubt."

"Durell Jacob was awesome. He gave me a bid to do the work I requested and had everything done within 2 1/2 hours. He also noticed I did not have a surge protector on my main box, he got that installed in the same time. The work he did was just what I asked for. Additionally, he was respectful, kind and knowledgable."
