About
Malco Electric has been a family owned operation serving the Dripping Springs region and greater Austin since 1983. That long stretch in the business means they have seen plenty of changes in how homes and businesses get wired up over the decades. Owned and run by a master electrician, the company keeps an A plus rating with the Better Business Bureau. They cover the local territory including spots like Bee Cave, Lakeway, and Wimberley. Electricians like these deal with everything from old farm properties to new builds in the hill country where weather can knock out power lines fast. Homeowners count on crews that know the local soil conditions and how they affect underground runs. Malco Electric handles residential rewiring in older Austin homes from the sixties along with surge protection setups, smart home automation installs, rural electrical service out to remote properties, dock electrical for waterfront spots, new construction wiring, pool and hot tub electrical, ceiling fan installation, and full electrical inspections. On the commercial and industrial side they manage service calls and upgrades across Dripping Springs and Austin. The twenty four seven availability lets them roll out for emergencies at any hour whether a storm hits or a panel fails. Homeowners get direct work from licensed hands who handle permits in Hays County and know the PEC territory rules inside out so jobs stay on schedule without extra delays from paperwork. Dripping Springs electricians often face long rural wire runs, summer heat that overloads systems, and sudden storms that demand quick fixes to keep pumps and lights running. Crews that show up on time and explain the fix in plain terms stand out when panels need upgrades or new builds require clean installs. Malco Electric fits that pattern with steady local coverage that avoids the wait times bigger outfits create. DIRT Score N/A from N/A reviews on Finds.

The technician Dean, was professional, friendly and did it great job, again giving us options and being considerate of cost. He was thorough, polite and did a great job.I will call them again!”
“Malco Electric has been my first choice since discovering through website. This is second time I’ve used their company. Easy to work with and very nice folks. I found their prices to be reasonable and in line with work requested. I’ve had recess lighting installed, ceiling fans replaced, re-wiring of doorbell and an outdoor electrical unit installed. Pleased customer!”
“I needed a plug installed in my garage and these guys were quick and clean about it. They even spotted a couple issues and quickly handled those as well. Thank you - would 100% recommend and if I need more electrical help they will be my first call.”
“These guys made a huge effort to come out on a weekend and replace our outside panel that had caught fire when I couldn't even get any other electricians to take our call. So they've got a customer for life here and I highly recommend them. Very professional. They were not bothered by the many questions I had either. Highly recommended.”
“I am so happy and thankful that I found Malco Electric. I had every switch and outlet replaced in our home. A whole house surge protector installed and a chandelier installed. The box where the chandelier was installed had some issues that Malco solved. All technicians were pros and a delight to have come and do all required work.”
