Mister Sparky Electrician Houston

Donna I.

It was a partial electricity outage at my condo, with no a/c and Trent came over and explained the whole (big story) situation that we were unfortunately in and let me just say Federal Pacific Electric and that should be enough for someone to google and find out how that company has defrauded so many people nationwide. Anyway, Trent was very helpful and efficient.
As recommended by Trent we brought the attention to our condo's HOA. With the info that Trent provided us, the HOA was quick on their feet to rectify the dire situation. My husband and I would definitely call them again if we encounter any more issues.

Called for service on a Sat 1/21/2017 and they did come very late in the evening the same day. My issue was a burning electric smell in my bedroom. Electrician checked the house and attic and couldn't find the source. I was willing to call it a night and pay the trip fee plus the hourly rate. He had been there 1 hour. While there - the tech informed me my smoke detectors were ""old"" and needed replacing. I stated I had ADT smoke alarms very recently installed and was not interested in replacing the original home ones. Tech continued to try and sell me on nearly $2,000 of work - none of which was related to my burning smell (which turned out to be an old dishwasher motor going bad). It's nearly midnight and this guy says he can't leave my house and stop the hourly charges until he can reach a supervisor to approve my declining of other services. I was ready to throw him out - 30 min later after I had to talk to a supervisor on his phone, he finally leaves. This company is a scam - avoid at all costs.

Job was done but later realized that fuses did not need to be replaced. Basically, I paid over $1000 for something that was not needed and offered a bunch of other mostly unnecessary things to consider for repairs. Overall, a rip off.

Used them for some outdoor lighting a year or so ago. Expensive, but had a great 7 year warranty. What a joke. Had them out after Harvey to repair lights. After spending...4 hours going around and ""inspecting"" things and telling me I needed to replace both outdoor main panels, never looked at my lighting. Turned off power in my rental house, trying to force me to buy a new panel. I told the young electrician that the arcing was probably a bad ground and asked if he knew how to test and fix that...he did. I'd had enough and called the office. They sent another electrician, just as bad and only covering for the dimwit. They never even looked at the lights and then informed me that the warranty would not cover damage from a power surge, so no warranty. I sent them away and called the office again. Supervisor was a jerk. Told me he was not going to give me a quote because I probably would not use them for the repairs. 4 hours of my time babysitting the electrician, nothing fixed and not even an estimate on repairs provided. Horrible and dishonest. Don't use them.

Due to their inspection of our house they remedied a very dangerous situation in our home's electrical wiring that could have led to severe consequences. These guys are very professional and do quality work. Would highly recommend.

Called Mr. Sparky to have work done on my house in May. The ""electrician"" came out and told my wife (I was at work) that it would be over 1600 dollars worth of work how we had fire hazards and all sorts of other stuff so he could finance me a deal. Having just bought the house in March and having it pass all inspections I declined most of their work. The ""electrician"" fraudulently billed my credit card 300 dollars and even forged my wife's signature. I then had to get somebody else to come fix the ""work"" that this clown did. Bank was notified of the forgery and everything else. After about a month a manager and lots of complaining a manager reached out and tried to make things right. Mr Sparky even went on to blackmail and said they would refund our money if we tgok the review down. Mr Saprky tries to take down all bad reviews. BUYER BEWARE

Charged $35 to come, look at panel, then proceed to quote ""roughly"" $600 just to do a diagnostic that could cost up to $6k or more to repair along with hourrrrrrrs of work.

Had job done (correctly)by another licensed electrician for $300.00
Shame on Sparky and all the Ryans they have working (upselling) for them.

My wife contacted this Company and they did come out the same day and fixed the issue. As I was out of town, I received an e-receipt where the price was totally out of line, based on some inquiries that I made. When I attempted to call the person answering the call said that he was going to have a manager call me. This is day 2 and no call back.

My recommendation is to avoid.

I had a GFCI that just would not reset. I found Mr. Sparky on Yelp and it had great reviews. I requested an appointment online and within minutes I received a call from their appointment scheduler. Keep in mind this was around eight or nine at night. The dispatcher called to let me know the next morning that the technician was 40 minutes out. The technician arrived on time. She was very courteous and professional. She took the time to explain everything to me. She found the problem and resolved it quickly. A very thorough safety inspection was done on the house. She wrote up all the recommendations and even gave me three different options with respective prices. Whenever dealing with anything electrical you already know it's going to be expensive. That being said with the level of service that Mr. Sparky and the technician Nina provided I had no problem or hesitation paying for services rendered. Hopefully I won't need to use them in the future because nobody like shelling out money for unbudgeted expenses. But if I do have an electrical problem I know who I will call, Mr. Sparky.

This morning my dishwasher zapped me, so I googled an electrician, and came across Mr Sparky. William came out the same day and was able to troubleshoot my problem. It was way more expensive than I thought, but I have an old house and needed to have a ground wire put in and ground my breaker box. William is probably the most passionate electrician I've encountered. You can tell he's dedicated to his job. I felt like he was knowledgable and trustworthy.
