Daniel Electric Company

Daniel Electric Company operates out of Southlake as a family owned electrical outfit that has handled commercial and residential work across the DFW area since 1988. They send drug tested and background checked electricians to homes and businesses in Southlake and nearby towns including Colleyville, Grapevine, and Keller. Their crews manage everything from basic repairs to full installations, showing up ready with the tools and know how to get the job done without dragging things out. Homeowners and property managers in the region count on them for straightforward electrical service that fits the demands of Texas weather and older homes that need updates.

Their electricians handle panel repairs, whole house surge protection, parking lot lighting fixes, and LED retrofits on commercial sites. One crew led by Dylan sorted out a lighting problem without swapping an entire fixture and double checked the smart switches before heading out. Another team installed a Level 2 hardwired charger for an IONIQ 5 by adding a new breaker in roughly ninety minutes and left the area clean. Customers like Tyler noted the easy scheduling plus text updates that kept them informed on arrival times, while the on site guys explained repair choices clearly so the homeowner could decide without pressure.

Response speed stands out as a consistent strength with crews often arriving the same day issues are reported, and communication stays direct through calls and messages that actually answer questions. Homeowners repeatedly mention the crews taking time to explain options and finishing work without extra trips or surprises on the bill. These habits add up across hundreds of jobs in Southlake where quick reliable electrical help matters most. DIRT Score 5.0 from 771 reviews on Finds.

“Dylan and his associate did a great job. Resolved one issue without having to replace an expensive light fixture. Also made sure my smart switches were operational before they left. Very helpful, went above and beyond, very courteous. I would have them come back next time I need electrical work. On time and reasonable prices.”

“Daniel Electric was fantastic from start to finish. Scheduling was easy, their text updates with ETA and communication were really helpful, and the electricians who came out were great in person. They clearly walked me through the options for fixing the electrical issues at our house and made the whole process feel simple and trustworthy. We’re so grateful our neighbors recommended them, and we’ll definitely use them again. Highly recommend!”

“We asked Daniel Electric to install a new 50-amp circuit for our kitchen range and to relocate a junction box for our hood into the attic (Job #6055319). Before they came out, I decided to run a 6/3 cable across the attic and down into the kitchen myself to make the job easier. I also fished a 12/2 wire down into the kitchen for the hood. I secured the 6/3 cable according to code, and the electricians even commented that I did a good job. I left the 12/2 cable unsecured since I wasn’t sure where they wanted to place the new junction box. The electricians mentioned this made the job a lot easier, but we were still charged the full quoted price. I understand that we had approved the estimate, but I expected at least some adjustment since part of the attic work they were supposed to do was already complete. Since they were here, we’ve found multiple issues with their work. When we had our attic insulation replaced, I discovered that the Romex cables in the attic were never stapled or secured, not every 4.5 feet as required by code, nor within 12 inches of the new junction box. They also left the excess 50-foot 12/2 wire coiled up instead of trimming it to the appropriate length, creating a trip hazard. When I opened the junction box to correct these issues before the insulators came back the next morning, I found that one of the ground wires wasn’t connected with the wire nut. Whether it came loose or was never connected in the first place, the wires should have been pre-twisted to ensure a secure and safe connection. After we recently had to move our range to replace the gas line, we noticed that the plug wouldn’t sit flush in the receptacle they had installed. We had another electrician come out, who confirmed the receptacle was bent and replaced it. When the city inspector came out to inspect the unrelated gas line repairs, I mentioned these issues and was told that Daniel Electric should have pulled a permit for the new circuit. They never mentioned that a permit was required, and no inspection was done. We specifically hired a licensed electrician expecting the work to be up to code and compliant with local regulations. Update: Daniel Electric replied to our review claiming that all work was up to code and documented at the time. We contacted them asking for that documentation but never received a response. Their decision not to pull the required permit meant no inspection ever verified the work. Only a city inspector can determine if work meets code, not the electricians themselves. Daniel Electric chose to bypass the permitting process entirely.”

“Had a Level 2 hardwired charger installed for my IONIQ 5 and these guys did a good job. Super clean work, no fuss. They put in a new breaker, and the charger works perfectly. The whole thing took about an hour and a half. Couldn’t be happier with the service. Highly recommend Daniel Electric!”

“Friendly, knowledgeable and very efficient workers. I have used Daniel Electric for years! They are simply the best and very reasonable! Alex was my latest helper and he was really special! I appreciate his words of wisdom more than he will ever know!”
