Spikes Electrical Contractors

Spikes Electrical Contractors works as electricians based in Bowie, Texas. They take on jobs for local homeowners dealing with power problems and electrical setups around the area. The company has a small crew that includes people like Joey who handles on-site diagnostics and Rusty who fields some calls. In this part of Texas electricians often deal with outages from storms or aging systems and Spikes steps in for those kinds of repairs along with bigger upgrades to panels and wiring in shops or houses. They focus on getting electricity back up and running for families who lose heat or lights and they manage full replacements when old boxes fail.

Customers call Spikes when the power goes out completely and techs like Joey show up fast to find the issue and coordinate with others such as JAC to fix it. One job involved a major problem that got resolved in under four hours so heat could come back on the same night. They also replace entire main power boxes in a single day when needed and handle wiring for new shops though scheduling has varied from case to case. The work covers diagnosing faults swapping out equipment and restoring service without long delays in some instances while other attempts at shop wiring led to repeated back and forth without progress.

Reviews show mixed results on how Spikes performs. Some homeowners note quick arrivals and solid fixes at fair costs especially for emergency power restoration and panel work. Others point out problems reaching anyone or getting follow-through on appointments with calls going unanswered for months. Speed and quality get credit when the job happens but communication and reliability drag down the overall rating from the seventeen reviews collected. DIRT Score 2.82 from 17 reviews on Finds.

“We are so grateful for this company. Friday afternoon and no electricity. Joey was here quickly and immediately diagnosed a major problem, working with JAC to get our electricity back in less than 4 hours so we had heat that night. We highly recommend this company. Thank you!!”

“I spent 4 months and literally 12 phone calls back and forth trying to get them out to wire my shop. After 2 no-shows, several other excuses why they would have to call me back and at least 6 messages, I've given up. I'm not sure how you can run a business like this but they will not be getting any of mine.”

“I tried to use this business but after a couple phone calls and NO return call from a guy named Rusty, I’ve given up. Just glad it wasn’t an emergency or safety hazard. I can only imagine how long it would take to get a job done if they didn’t even have the time to return a potential customer’s phone call….don’t bother, they didn’t.”

“I called, they answered(none of that leaving a message and waiting hours or days mess) They were able to fix it the same day. A whole main power box replacement. Price was (I think) reasonable for a job that required taking out and replacing a whole part of the system. Glad I called them. Thank You Heather Hamilton for recommending them.”

“They gave my mom the run around for 2 days then when she finally got a time and date they didn’t show and had to make another time as far as the work goes I’m not sure, the work was completed so they did their job but not impressed with their punctuality”
