Recommended Customer Reviews

Just had service done at my house! Excellent service! Robert Lopez was super professional, very friendly, timely, and super knowledgeable. The price was great as well! Will definitely use them again if we need more work done. Thank you for the excellent service!

I have called Bolt Electric several times for electrical issues in my home. Each time a technician has come, he (Andy) was really professional! He explained everything as he was doing it and we even had a discussion about preventative maintenance. His expertise, professionalism, and positive attitude speak volumes on who he is and how great a company like Bolt Electric really is. As long as I live in San Antonio and need electrical help with my home, I will go to Bolt

Technician came exactly on time and did the work exactly as promised and at the quoted price, plus a military discount. Would highly recommend for your home electrical needs.

Excellent work. We moved to a new house that hadn't been taken care of well. I found Bolt Electric on Yelp and they totally lived up to those good reviews.
Ronnie, the owner, came over and spent an hour and a half catering to my every question. He gave me an estimate and was very helpful.
David completed the work. Great attention was paid to both small and big tasks. Pricing was reasonable.
I'm very happy with the work and would hire again if need be.

These guys are on point.
I need to run some tools that pull high amps in my garage but my new house only came with 1 outlet.
First let's start at the end: Bolt's craftsmanship was pretty damn good. His work looked 10 x's better than anything I've seen in this 2018 home. This guy made the home builder look flat out incompetent. The finished product was clean and classy. He even labeled the new breakers for me inside the breaker box.
So back to the beginning; the electrician and I talked about what I was trying to achieve, and he gave me a few options and dropped his recommendation on what would be the safest, easiest and most functional for my request. I took his recommendation, he was in an out in less than an hour.
The price. Well you get what you pay for right?!?. I needed someone to rewrite my home's breaker box. I'm not trying to get killed or burn the place down. The electrician explained what he's doing and why he's doing it. I'm sure I could have saved $10 or $20 bucks, but why? This is about safety and security. I needed the job done correctly, the first time.

Bolt didn't come want to come to our side of town to install security cameras and a doorbell, so we went with Mister Sparky and can highly recommend Mister Sparky and will use them for future jobs.
Bolt said the price of gas was the reason they did not come out this way. They lost out on a job and a lot of money.

Very professional, upfront hourly pricing quoted on the phone. I made an appointment, and I love that they called me the day before to assure me they were coming. The electrician arrived on time with a 10 minute call before hand. He was great with cats and dogs, also very efficient and professional. I would definitely use them again or recommend them to anyone.

This is my second time using Bolt Electric. The first time I had a $1800 panel replacement project and this time I needed a 40 amp line run for a new double oven. I cannot say enough good things about Robert and Bolt Electric. He was punctual, professional, personable, and very efficient. The work was above par and completed quickly. I will definitely use Bolt for any electrical needs in the future and recommend them highly to my friends.

I needed an electrician to do one last thing for the sale of my home, Bolt was kind enough to send someone out quickly. The electrician was professional and did a great job. I highly recommend Bolt!

Excellent service. I needed a small electrical job done the same day and they squeezed me in. Christine was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. Reasonable pricing with reliable service. I definitely would recommend this place for all your electrical needs.
