Green Light Electrical Services

I had Jarrod install two flood lights for me. He completed the job when he said he would and at the price he quoted me.

We used Green Light to have 2 ceiling fans replaced on an 18 foot ceiling. The first visit got most of the work done, but we didn't have the right adapters for the angle of the ceiling - our fault. We had to reschedule a follow up visit because Jarrod's truck broke down, but eventually got them back out.

Unfortunately, they decided to install the fan remote control receivers (at the canopy 18 feet high) and not to change the ancient wall dimmer switch that controlled them. That switch wasn't safe to use, and destroyed the remote control receivers the first time the switch was turned off. I replaced the switch (for a whole $1), but the damage was done.

A week after I e-mailed Jarrod about this, I texted him -- he replied that he would answer me, but never did. I gave up after another week, and bought new remotes, rented a truck and tall ladder, and replaced the remotes myself. A grand total of $180 extra and a Saturday spent to fix a mistake that shouldn't happen with a professional electrician.

I called over 10 electricians looking for someone to look at some wiring after a home inspection last minute. Jarrod was able to help me since he would be in the area. He was accommodating with the time and really helped me in a bind. Jarrod was knowledgable and professional. It was a free inspection and I was really happy with his work. I would recommend Green Light to anyone.

I called Green Light shortly before noon today after reading the on-line reviews. I was looking for someone close to my home & with good ratings. I had already replaced the breakers on the house that feed the spa and the GFI on the subpanel under the deck. I was at a loss and needed professional help. I also had a remote control ceiling fan that I couldn't get to work. Jarrod answered the phone & after explaining my situation he said they would try to come by this afternoon, but at least they could schedule something tomorrow.

He called at 2:34 this afternoon and said he had time to come by. He arrived at 2:55pm. WIthin about 5 minutes he diagnosed the problem regarding the spa & fixed it. He then took a look at the ceiling fan and determined I'd wired a hot to ground and the neutral wires were not connected to anything - I'd given up after becoming frustrated. It was complicated by the fact I had a 3 separate light switches within the same wall switch. He was only here about 20 minutes and fixed both problems.

My experience was very pleasant and the price reasonable to fix both problems. I can now enjoy my spa and not worry about the coming subfreezing weather. While my situation wasn't complicated for an experienced electrician nevertheless he was very responsive and took care of my problem.

I am not usually one to write a bad review, but we had such a terrible experience with Green Light Electrical that I decided to warn others. We were remodeling our house and had a number of items we needed rewiring for. Jarrod kept saying the work was done and then we would find that light switches were not working, the garbage disposal was hooked up to the same switch as our kitchen sink light (so the kitchen light could only come on when the garbage disposal was on), etc. Then, after the work was done a couple of the switches they worked on stopped working. We eventually were tired of calling Green Light back and having faulty work done so had an electrician from a different company come to fix it, and they said that the reason the switches stopped working is because Green Light had mixed up wires and also put in some wires so loose they had fallen out. It cost us $300 just to have someone fix the work they messed up. Would not recommend.

I don't know about everyone else's experience, but mine was below par. I had a flood light put in at my house. I met with Jared the owner for a quote which went fine. The day they are supposed to come out at 8am, I got a phone call at 7:55 from Dan asking for my address. How did he not have my address if my appointment was set up two weeks before? Meanwhile, I call Jared and email him and get no response. I told him I had a full day of appointments that I needed to get to and the 8am was agreed upon for that reason. Meanwhile, Dan showed up at 8:50. He finished the job fine, but the customer service is terrible.

I don't appreciate a company that doesn't show up on time. I still have yet to get my phone call or email back.

Called Green Light after a previous contractor did some outdoor electrical work that I wasn't happy with.
Jarrod came out when he said he would, gave a fair bid, and we scheduled the work for a few days later.
The day of the work, I had a couple of additional changes I wanted. No problem, we came up with a good solution, and he just made it happen.
The work was to add electrical for an outdoor ceiling fan under our pergola, and also to wire in some outdoor lights with switches and additional outlets.
He showed up when he said he would and got the work done in a few hours.
I'm confident the work is done properly, and he charges a fair price.
On time, good work, fair price - exactly what I want in a contractor.

I was putting in some outside lights in front of my house and replacing a broken outdoor fixture, and I needed a fusebox reattached to my house. I had gotten a bid from a landscape company that was $50 more a fixture than Jarrod's, and the other bids I got from two other electricians were comparable to GLE's. I went with Jarrod due to his good reviews and the fact that he was punctual and responsive to calls/e-mails. He was the first to respond and first to come out for a bid.

The day of install his electrician Dan had gotten there before Jarrod and arrived exactly when he said he would. Jarrod was picking up the materials. By the time Jarrod arrived Dan had already reattached my fusebox, (which they did for free), and had taken down the old fixture. Dan did a good job and finished that afternoon and showed me how everything worked. He cleaned up everything as well. After he left and the lights came on, one of the lights was not working, even though Dan had tested them all.

I e-mailed Jarrod that evening but didn't hear back. I called Jarrod the next day, (today, a Friday), and he said Dan had called in sick, that he was already going to have him come by, but now he couldn't today. He apologized for not returning the e-mail, that he didn't read it until late Thursday night. Jarrod said he was way down South still and asked if he could come back on Tuesday after Memorial Day to fix it. I told him, (nicely), that we had paid for the work and would like to have it wrapped up, could someone come by some time today. Jarrod dropped what he was doing, came to Round Rock, fixed it, then headed back to the other job after he e-mailed me it was done. If I have any more electrical work done I will be calling Green Light Electric, I added him to my phone contacts.

I'm changing my rating to 3 stars because Jarrod did personally call to apologize for not returning my message. I do understand that this sometimes happens and appreciate the time he took to call.

Found Green Light on Yelp and I was very happy. Jarrod came out to install some outdoor outlets we had been wanting for years (to plug in our lawn care equipment, Christmas lights, etc.) He was easy to schedule, on time, fairly priced and very professional. I even received an invoice via email. Would call on him again.
