Smithco

Smithco operates as electricians based in San Antonio, Texas, serving the broader region that stretches into Canyon Lake, New Braunfels, Bulverde, and nearby spots. This veteran owned outfit brings over fifty years of combined experience across home building and remodeling projects, where electrical work forms a core part of what they deliver every day. They stay registered with local cities like New Braunfels and Bulverde, maintain full licensing and insurance, and extend a ten percent discount to first responders, teachers, military members, and veterans. No project counts as too big or too small for their crew, whether it involves new construction or updates to existing homes in the area.

Their electrical services cover full installations during builds like the twenty by twenty workshop Jon Blanchard had added to his backyard, which finished on budget and ahead of the original schedule. Charles visited Mary Perroni to plan a two story casita addition that included proper electrical runs once septic approvals cleared, while Erik Arellano saw the team manage complete project execution from start to finish without delays. Angel Clark contracted them for a storage room conversion into a mother in law apartment that required quick electrical setup to meet the tight timeline, and the crew handled wiring, outlets, and related systems as part of larger remodels that also touch plumbing, drywall, and concrete work across San Antonio properties.

Homeowners keep coming back because the work stays on schedule, costs stay reasonable, and updates arrive clearly at every step from start to end. Reviews highlight solid quality on everything from workshop builds to full apartment conversions, along with crews that treat properties with respect and deliver exactly what gets promised upfront. That pattern of reliable results across dozens of jobs adds up to strong marks in speed, workmanship, and straightforward talk. DIRT Score 5.0 from 94 reviews on Finds.

“I wanted to add some extra space to my home for friends and family. I looked at the SmithCo website and found a picture of a two-story casita with each of the two rooms opening out to a deck. I called and Charles came over and discussed the project with me. As soon as the septic was approved they started the project and were finished within about three months. I was very impressed with the reliability of the workers. They came every day that the weather allowed at 7 am and were very quiet for the first hour. The workmanship was great, and the workers were all very polite and helpful. I loved that they just went about their work and were always willing to answer any questions that I had. I ended up with a beautiful addition and plenty of room for everyone. They put in two bedrooms, one with a full bath and one with a half bath. They also extended my deck, built new stairs and replaced the existing fence. I would recommend them highly as a contractor and am very grateful for their professionalism and kindness.”

“Worked with SmithCo General Contractor on a recent project and was impressed with their professionalism and quality of work. Their team handled everything efficiently, from communication to execution, and stayed on schedule throughout the job. They specialize in general construction and remodeling, and it shows in the level of detail and finish they deliver. The project ran smoothly, and the final result exceeded expectations. Highly recommend SmithCo General Contractor if you’re looking for a dependable contractor who delivers high-quality results.”

“We needed a complete remodel of a storage room into a mother-in-law apartment for my mom and we are so glad to have contacted SmithCo. Their price for the project was very reasonable and we needed this done as soon as possible, so once we contracted with them, they were out to start the project within a few days which was awesome! From day one, we were treated with professionalism and courtesy beyond our expectations. Charles Smith and his crew are a skilled, trustworthy, and hard-working team. Justin, their foreman, kept the project running like a well-oiled machine. Along the way, we had several requests not on the original plans and Charles and Justin used their knowledge and expertise to provide us with the best course of action to accommodate our needs, with any additional costs still very reasonable. The time to completion was extremely fast. On top of all that, they were always pitching in to help outside of the scope of the project, such helping me put my mom in the car so I could take her to the hospital when she fell, replacing an electrical outlet in the main house that was sparking that could have caused a fire, and when I couldn’t make arrangements for friends or family to help move her kind-size bed and chest into the new place so my mom could start enjoying it, Charles stepped up yet again and brought his crew back by to move them for us. Wow! How much more customer friendly can you get! Christian values at its best. Finding and doing business with SmithCo was truly a blessing and with other projects on the horizon I will not hesitate to contract with them again. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”

“Smithco Construction does great work! The owner is Charles. We found a structural issue with our 3 story balcony. As well as, rotten support columns. He gave us a timely detailed quote and timeframe to complete the work. He also suggested replacing the “out-dated” railing on all 3 levels. Worth it! Looks great! This is huge! The workers showed up at 7 am every day. Please note… they were mannerly, respectful, and Christians. We’ve had some previous experiences with shoddy workmanship in Canyon Lake. If you want stress-free work, done right I highly recommend this company.”
