Doc came out to give me a quote for installing the connections to set up a whole home generator and to separate a fan from the bathroom light. They able to fish it through the attic and made no mess. Now my little one can use the bathroom at night without the fan waking her up. The connections on the outside were simple. Doc was very professional and answered all my questions. I will be calling again for any other electrical needs and have given their number to family. read more

Great response time, friendly and amazing work removing a ceiling fan and hanging a chandelier. Rates were better than others I had reached out to. Will definitely use them again for next electrical project. read more

Veteran Electric - Electricians Near Me - Spring, Texas

Veteran Electric did a phenomenal job on my breaker repair and diagnostic. The technician gave solid advice, showed me the issue, a way to prevent it, and what to look out for in the future. I felt very confident on what they were telling me and their service was great. Will use them again! read more

Vince was amazing, such a comical social butterfly - very knowledgeable and ensures that everything is totally up to code before he leaves. Veteran Electric squeezed us into the schedule and were so helpful and sorted everything out in a jiffy! I would totally recommend them of you have any electrical enquiries! read more

I needed a breaker for my AC during the 100 degree heat. The girl I spoke to refused to escalate it for a senior with medical condition. She said Two weeks was the soonest they could come give me an estimate If I can live two weeks without AC during the heat warning the maybe I don't need AC at all. Thank you for making me feel valued as a potential customer read more

Used their service to install Tesla Fast Charger, fix house grounding cable, and extend an electric plug in the bathroom. They were organized, punctual, and professional. This includes the customer service line In fact, the electricians (Joe and Will) went above and beyond to fix parts of my Powerwall system that weren't properly installed! read more

I asked for a quote to get a transfer switch for a battery generator system installed. Received a quote within 24 hours and it was very competitive. First thing, they provided an appointment window for the entire process and arrived on time, which you normally never get. After it was installed, I had some issue with the system and contacted them again. Vince actually sent another colleague out who assessed this. Even more, they contacted the manufacturer to determine what the issue was and how to resolve it. They informed me without any extra charges to my full satisfaction. Great guys, reliable and honest. Can only recommend them. read more

This review is a little overdue, but wanted to say thank you to Jonathan and team at VE for being incredibly professional, helpful, and responsive with our request. We just needed help installing two light and security camera fixtures this time but I will for sure contact them again for other needs - big and small. Great service! read more

I came across Veteran Electric through a google search for home standby generator installers several years ago. My initial interaction with the office staff was a admittedly a bit bumpy. But, Vince reached out and quickly put my mind at ease. There was no sales pitch, just an honest conversation and solutions to move forward fairly and efficiently. My first transaction with them was for the purchase and installation of a Cummins 20kw generator for my parents' house. The pricing was more than fair for the professional and clean installation. I was at ease and comfortable with their guys working on their own without supervision. They did what they said they were going to do, and the final result exceeded my expectations. A few months later, we hired Vince and his team again to install a 2nd generator for my Aunt's house. This one was a bit more challenging due to the stricter requirements of the city. But, Vince handled everything professionally while keeping us well informed of the situation. Despite the unexpected extra time out of their control, the experience and end result far exceeded our expectations. Later in the year, Veteran Electric helped diagnose an issue on the older generator at my house installed by a contractor that's no longer around. The service was prompt and fair. I was back up and running quickly. Finally, when we built our new home this year, we hired Veteran Electric again to install a 3rd standby generator as soon as we closed on the house. I was working out of town at the time. Vince and his crew delivered and installed the generator, wired it up, and coordinated with my plumber all without me having to physically be present. Everything went super easy, zero stress, zero regrets, I couldn't be happier. I will continue using and recommending Veteran Electric whenever possible. Vince Anderson is an honest businessman and master electrician that's thoroughly earned my respect and a customer for life. read more

I have to unfortunately give this place a bad review. I'll preface that i initiated a project here on yelp and wanted to use veteran electric, they were my top choice. I requested a quote to have a line installed in my garage for electric charging and to add 2 outlets. I received a fast response initially requesting some more info stating the quote would be pretty quick. I started receiving other quotes some saying they needed to come out an 3 that did come out within 48hrs. It took over 3 days to get another response from veteran electric this time through email asking for the same information I provided on yelp. I made the initial request on a Saturday and didn't get an email till Monday which I excused even though I had multiple responses and quotes coming in over the weekend. I responded immediately to the email and again several hours later no response. I messaged them again on yelp saying I still hadn't received a quote and requested that someone come out to do the quote. The soonest they could do was 2 days later on Wednesday. The guy who came out was very nice and the only redeeming part of my experience. He noted everything and gave me a quote quickly. I asked if they'd be willing to match another quote because again I really preferred to give them my business and I showed him what I was quote and he said absolutely we can do that, even put it in the notes. He also mentioned if I wanted to schedule they were about 2 days out which worked for me. When I approved the quote and wanted to confirm they agreed to the price they wanted me to send in the quote for manager approval. I sent it in and got no response the rest of the afternoon. The next day I emailed again and they said they needed a detailed quote specifying exactly what they were doing to see if they were offering the same job and that the soonest they had was a week out and they didn't have any availability the rest of this week. The lack of communication and slow response times to emails and questions made this a very long process. Definitely would have preferred to give them my business and I'm sure they would have done great work but the lack of timely responses, availability and unwillingness to uphold their statement they would honor another companies offer drove me away. read more

Jonathon came out to give me a quote and was professional, efficient, on-time and helpful. He gave me 2 different quotes at my request with regard to saving some money. While he was at my house he even took a few minutes to correct an outlet that I had installed incorrectly. Since it only took a few minutes and it was easy to do he did it for FREE!! That is unheard of these days! I mean who does that unless they are a friend or family member! Wow! I was planning on using them, but I had an unexpected financial situation that changed my plans. However, if I ever need any electrical work done in the future I will definitely call these guys!! read more

Vince was awesome and reached out very shortly after my initial review. My wall is already fixed and looks amazing. Thank you again read more

Jeff from Veteran Electric came one day after I contacted them and installed a new outlet behind my TV so I could hang it and hide the wires. He even cut a new hole and created a loop so I could easily pull wires through the wall. Jeff was friendly, transparent about pricing, and explained the steps he was performing. The cost was very reasonable and the work was quick and professional. I would definitely work with Veteran Electric again in the future. read more

Came out same week to fix a faulty breaker. My technician was professional, quick and explained everything in plain English so a non electrician could understand. read more

Larry was great help me fix my lights outsides! He took his time to make sure everything was correct! Was very appreciative of that. Will call again for anymore electrician work and lights outside read more

I did not use this company, but I called to get some work done. The operator told me there was a $150 fee for the electrician to come out to the property which WOULD NOT be credited towards the work done. I said 'no thanks". A poor way to do business, IMO. EDIT: I called them again, by mistake, and there was no mention of a fee to come out this time, so I went ahead and asked them to estimate some work on the main panel and grounding. Turns out their costs were lower than a highly recommended competitor, so I went ahead. They completed the work the day after I accepted their bid. Am having them out to do upgrades on some other things. I do now recommend them. read more

I just bought a home last month and then realize "Oh crap, some of the electricity seems kind of messed up." So I looked on Yelp to decide on who to contact for help. Being that I am in the process of moving, and not currently in-state, I needed someone I can trust. After speaking to a bunch of contractors, my gut said to use Veteran Electric because both the review and upon speaking with the receptionist Ashton - Veteran Electric seemed like the coolest and most honest as well as professional of the bunch. I am so glad I did! Vincent came out to inspect our home and then gave us a break down of what needed to be done. We went with his team and they did a great job - sending me pictures and even letting me know my roof was leaking :( Vince and his crew is all around cool...professional, and know what they are doing. If you want someone trustworthy and professional - Veteran's Electric is hands down, the best way to go. Thank you guys! read more

Larry Tidee and Perry were very knowledgeable and worked quickly to resolve the electric issue at my house. Very thankful for their amazing work!!! read more

The team that came out did a great job. Due to my extremely high ceilings the job required 2 electricians to install my ceiling fan. They also changed a light bulb that was also at the same height as the ceiling fan. The original reason we hired them was to change our electrical outlets, in order to hide the TV cords in several rooms (my husband hates seeing hanging cords). The men were on time, professional, didn't make a mess, and didn't even have any dry wall damage. I highly recommend them. read more

I'm not sure about their service quality. They provide free estimates but I was quoted $1442 to install outdoor circuit breakers. That seems pretty outrageous. Perhaps he thought he was speaking with an undereducated person with no common sense given the area or condition of the home? I'm so tired of these companies taking advantage. All o can say is always get multiple quotes. I got the circuit breaker and new flood light installed for 350 parts and labor by another electrician and that still may have been slightly overpriced. Just be careful because this quote was unreasonable. read more

Many thanks to Jonathan, Vince, & team for bringing my many ideas to life. I recently moved into a new construction home and had to change/add several things around the house. The Veteran Electric team completed all items promptly and I have had zero issues whatsoever. They respected my home and all work was done professionally. Truly first-class service and I will be using them again in the future. read more

Johnathan was awesome!!! He diagnosed the problems we had and restored our lights. He was extremely professional, thorough and explained everything in detail. We will definitely use Veteran Electric going forward. read more

After a nasty storm, my power surged or my garage was hit very close to lightning. I was left with now power to that side of the house or my laundry room. That's something you look forward to,especially after coming home from camping with three kids. Lol. This company came over in a timely fashion within 24 hours. They fix all of the GFI issues and they also went above and beyond and double checked/fixed the panal. I cannot thank them enough for keeping our house tip top, and the deep freeze/ garage door opening again. Very well priced!!!! Value to price is unbeatable! Great craftsmanship. The man and wife team communicate and impeccably! read more

Scheduled an inspection for my home around start of May this year and I have to yet recieve the promised report of their findings. I paid Doc through zelle and they have yet to email me a reciept. As he was inspecting, he was always on his phone and texting someone sometimes for up to 5 minutes at a time. Maybe he had something urgent, but collectively the whole session ended up being around an hour long taking into account the texting. I asked some questions about the house and the wirings etc because I wanted to know what was going on with the house as it was a recent purchase, and he used a lot of jargon, spoke quickly and did not seem willing to really explain what he was saying as he answered my questions for clarification with more jargon. I picked them because of all the stellar reviews, but now I think most of those must be paid or fake Edit: The manager reached out to me after I posted a 1 star review here and I now recieved the reciept and quotes for repairs. I don't know if I'll still go with them to make the repairs though since I don't really understand what the scope of work entails. Like I said, they used lots of jargon and didn't really explain to me what needed to be done despite the itemized billing. However, the office seems to be very responsive. read more

UPDATE March 15, 2024 Vince the owner of this business got in touch with me the day I wrote this review, and came the next morning to finish the job. He was super friendly and accommodating and not only finished the job correctly, but went above and beyond to make sure that it looked nice. Yes, things started a bit rough, but dealing with Vince was a pleasure. Thank you Vince, I am updating my review to a 4 stars. The only reason it isn't a five is because it wasn't done correctly to begin with. I would for sure recommend Vince with Veterans Electric and if the need comes up, I will use them again! I had all kinds of problems getting the work scheduled. I took off of work to be there the day they told me they would do the work only to have Doc call me to tell me he didn't realize I was in Conroe city limits and that they'd have to obtain a permit before doing the work. Well he had been to my home in order to give me a quote for the work so that was a lie of an excuse considering he not only had my address, but had been to my home as well. I decided to over look that and have them do the work anyway and now wish I hadn't. They came to do the work and assured me that when they were done they would label the panel and give me the old Zinsco panel and cover plate because I wanted to keep them. The work seemed to be done ok except that they left without labeling the panel, and didn't give me the cover plate of the old panel. The power did not get cut back on until 12:30am which is an Entergy problem and that isn't Veteran Electrics fault, however Doc assured me that once the power was back on that he would come out to finish the job and label the panel. I texted him 3 different times about completing the work and bringing me back my faceplate but all texts went unanswered. I then go to inspect the work they did and realize that they moved the Wi-Fi box right to a location right above my sprinkler controller and the cord is laying tightly against the door of the sprinkler panel so that I can no longer access my sprinkler system to turn it on or off. My panel is still not labeled and the place where my sprinkler system plugs into the panel either doesn't have a fuse or it didnt get connected because it has no power. I'm beyond pissed at the lack of response, lack of customer support, theft of my cover panel which was antique I'm sure, and the fact that little seemed to be done correctly. Surely running a WiFi service over a sprinkler panel is not to code anyway. Do NOT use this company if you want things done properly and in a timely manner. They ARE NOT it! My work was done on January 26th and it is now March 14 and I am still yet to get a text returned from Doc. If you use them just make sure you DONT get Doc!! read more

This 9 foot chandelier was a nightmare for us. So we hired these guys to do it for us. They were courteous and professional, and punctual. Be sure to explain what kind of chandelier it is that you are scheduling them to install, so that they aren't blind-sided. They assembled the entire fixture, crystals and all. Great job! read more

Initially I was happy with the service (some trash/wires were left behind) but ended having an issue within 10 days of them installing some GFCI outlets (forcing me to turn off at the breaker), turns out Veteran Electric doesn't work on the weekends so I was left out to dry w no internet. Recently examined my electrical panel which they labeled as part of the bid and almost all the labeling was wrong. All in all paid a premium and feel as if I got a rushed handyman service read more

Veteran Electric has done several jobs for me the past few years. From ceiling fan installation, outlet additions, transfer switch installation and smoke detector replacement, they have consistently been prompt, professional, courteous and efficient. Most recently, Jonathan and Doc did great work for me. They have all of my electrical needs covered. read more

So, this review is strictly for them coming out assessing the work and providing a quotation. They were on time, professional and very courteous. I explained to them my thoughts and ideas for adding additional lines in the bedrooms to support two switches (for the light and fan). Easy peasy! I cannot account for the cost as they are the only quote at this time however, with what I saw I'm willing to pay for their work because "you get what you pay for". They were awesome. I received the quote 15 minutes after they left! read more

I reached out to have a doorbell installed in my 30+ year home that for whatever reason never had a doorbell. Veteran came out and viewed the property to get me a quote and about a week later I had Doc working on it. Not only was the job done right, quickly, and on time, but Doc ended up completing the project under budget. I feel like I got a deal that was more than fair. Their communication and scheduling was quick and easy. No complaints. I would definitely reach out again for any other electrical needs. read more

They came out to give me an estimate. Larry (my technician) was EXTREMELY pleasant and amazingly helpful. I had another electrician come out to do some work prior to him and it appears that he preyed on a female only household and charged us for horribly done work. Larry was super empathetic and helpful. I would definitely give them my business. Veteran Electric, if you read these reviews, Larry is an absolute treasure! read more

Veteran Electric has gained a new loyal customer. Vince (the owner) came and fixed my generator when most electricians have waiting list for repairs, he also had one, but came to my rescue and got it done. Words can't explain my appreciation. Veteran will be my new maintenance provider for my generac generator as well as getting my homes electrical issues resolved. THANK YOU Vince read more

My mom who is elderly had them estimate to upgrade our electrical box. Very young man came out with another guy who did not know anything about Electricity I guess he was just his helper. Could not answer the questions I had Took forever to get the estimate and these people pride themselves and being reasonably priced they were priced double of what any other electrician has quoted I really see this a lot lately where service providers see an elderly woman and try to take advantage of her. This is one of these companies! I will definitely stay away. Shame on you read more

While using the yelp project feature, I was searching for an electrician to help me with a faulty circuit breaker that keeps tripping in the panel of my house. Veteran Electric reached out, and it was a rocky start to say the least. When they called, I inquired if they had any availability the same week that I called. Unfortunately they had no openings; no worries... kind of expected it. So then I booked for the following week from 2pm - 4pm because that was the earliest that I could accommodate for them. We were set. A few days before the appointment, I got a call from the scheduler, asking if I could move up my appointment earlier to 12 - 2pm. I told them that I couldn't because I would still be at work and that 2-4pm is when I could be home. The scheduler had an awkward silence over the phone and said, "... okay... ... we'll keep your scheduled time then". The big day came and it was the day before the freeze here in New Braunfels. I got home right at 2pm waiting for a confirmation text... Nothing... no big deal its only 2pm. 1 hour later (now 3pm), I received a text from the electrician, saying that he was running at least 1 hour late because of their last job running over. Although I do appreciate the text, this was outside of the 2 hour window as scheduled. The electrcian was very professional and communicative, but it was already outside of the scheduled window. Bottom line, things happen, but I just wish they kept their appointment times. Although one guy may be busy, it would've been nice if they could dispatch another electrician to make their commitments. Maybe in the near future I'll give them a try. read more

We recently used Veteran Electric again, this time to install recessed lighting in a few places. They did an amazing job! Marcus took his time to walk us through the options for where to place the lights. The placement ended up being perfect. They also price matched since I received a cheaper quote from another electrician. I prefer to use Veteran Electric because they're honest, friendly, punctual and overall easy to work with. read more

Looking for electrician and decided to search Yelp! Veteran Electric came up with 5 stars so I sent them a message and they responded within 30 minutes and said they'd be happy to help. I called them and set up an appointment. They sent a reminder the morning of (7/5) and Vince was in contact that morning to tell me when he would arrive. I had a ceiling fan installed in my man cave several months ago and a couple of months again I had to stop using it as it would spark and pop when I flipped the switch. It was an easy fix, and he showed me the wires that were touching causing the problem. In anticipation of the worst, we bought another fan in case this one was bad. So when he found out no big deal, we asked if he'd put in the new fan in my wife's scrapbooking room. No problem and he had it all done within an hour. All the time taking about his service to our country in the US Army. He even took the old light fixture and box with him to trash it. Great guy, good pricing, and great service!! He even brought up our trash can on the way in our house when he arrived. If you're looking for an electrician, I would HIGHLY recommend Veteran Electric. read more

Vince from Veteran Electric was totally awesome!!! Not pushy. Gave me a free estimate for total home re-wire. While he was here, he fixed a electrical problem that shorted out the front of my home, middle bedroom & caused issue in my rear bedroom. All was done for $125 original diagnostic repair free. Super cheap!!!! Everything is back online. I should have called him earlier!!! Lesson learned. I'm having him back very soon for other issues. Thank you, Vince!!! See you again soon.

Veteran Electric did an amazing job on installing the back feed and surge protector for my home. Communication, efficiency and time it took to complete the job was phenomenal! I highly recommend them as that they are working diligently and helping so many people after the storm. read more

I've had Veteran Electric come to my home a few times to correct different electrical issues. They've always been honest and helpful. I recently had an issue in my garage that I thought. Perhaps there's a wiring or fuse issue. The young lady on the phone suggested I check the GFCI button on an outside electrical socket. That was it! Got service without being charged! That's the kind of business I'll use again. read more

Outstanding and professional service. I picked this place because of their Yelp review. They did not disappoint.
