I have used Molitor Electric in the past and I am always happy with their work and their professionalism. This time I had them upgrade a bunch of light fixtures, install a gorgeous ceiling fan in my livingroom and best of all Dan installed a new switched outlet so that I could string bulb lights across my new deck, completing the look to my outdoor space. Thank you!!

I was floored by how kind and professional the service was. It was an emergency situation and they came same day and had us back up and running within an hour. He explained what happened and taught us how to prevent that from occurring again. I appreciate businesses that seem to be in it for helping people vs making money. You can tell that Molitor Electric truly enjoys helping. Thank you.

The team at Molitor were professional, and we are pleased with our upgraded electrical panel and whole-home rewiring. We also had an electric car charger installed and the whole process was smooth. We would not hesitate to recommend Molitor for electrical needs, and will call them again should the need arise.

They were amazing and did exactly what I asked for. Very professional and friendly company work with. I wanted to upgrade the lighting in my kitchen and living room and boy what a difference it’s made. Dan was polite and answered all my questions and now I have gorgeous recessed lighting and a brand new ceiling fan. Plus they arranged for the removal of my out dated fluorescent box light I had in my kitchen. 100% will use them next time we need electrical help. I’m so happy with the service I received!!

Since purchasing my home earlier this year, I’ve needed a variety of services performed, ranging from plumbing work to electrical. As anyone who’s owned a home before knows, finding a good servicing company isn’t always easy and can sometimes take a few trials and tribulations. Sometimes though you get lucky and you stumble across a gem right off the bat. In my case, the gem was Molitor Electric. So far, Dan with Molitor has upgraded both house electrical panels, installed a few standard electrical outlets and even ran the wiring and installed two high powered outlets for two vehicle charging stations. At one point during his installation of the electrical panels I asked about the durability and quality of the panels with regards to overall cost. Dan responded by saying that he only used the best of the best for his customers and even though it might mean a high upfront cost, at the end of the install I would have the best panels on the market. As someone who grew up with a father who ran his own construction business for over 20 years, with the ideology of perfection and quality of work, this mentality holds a lot of deep meaning and value to me. Dan’s work is immaculate, detailed and professional. In the case of using an electrician, what you pay for is what you get. If you want professional, quality work don’t waste your time trying different electricians. Just use Molitor.

As we all are doing while in quarantine, I started looking around my home and wanted to make some improvements. One of them being changing out the old and outdated light fixture above my kitchen table and getting a new one installed. I had no idea how to do this, but no fear, Molitor Electric came and installed my new light so fast! And they were polite and professional wearing personal protective gear the whole time! I would highly recommend them if you have some electrical work you need done around the house.

I called Molitor on Friday 12/16 when I'd lost partial power at my house. I was really worried as we were getting some really cold weather the following week and was afraid for the tankless water heater etc. They were very busy and the 22nd was the earliest appt they had but said they'd try to get to it if they were in the area. I got a call on Sunday from Dan, saying he'd stopped by and was able to replace a breaker in the subpanel and thought that would solve it. Sure enough it did! So grateful they fit me in. I'll definitely call Molitor the next time I have an electrical problem. I love having a local company I can trust to do work like this.

We bought a 45-year old home which needed a lot of electrical work. I found Molitor by reading their reviews, coupled with the fact that they’ve been in business in Austin for many years. We had a quote from one of ‘the big’ companies in town, and when we received our quote from Molitor, we actually had to compare item-for-item, because it was so much lower than ‘the big’!ALL was in order, and we chose Molitor.As with any older home, the job ran into a snag with the City inspection, and we had to go with a more involved remedy to bring the house up to code. At EVERY point along the way: we were kept in the loop daily on the current status, and what was next with the job. Every employee I met or communicated with was responsive, knowledgeable, and kind.Without any doubt, this is THE company you want for your electrical needs.

I have used Molitor Electric for several projects over the years: replacing/updating aluminum wiring, installing can lights, repairing outlets and most recently for damage from a lightning strike. The team is always professional, courteous and seems to work with the highest levels of detail and care. Nothing is ever kinda halfway done -- I'm always certain the work is completed to the highest standards.I highly, highly recommend this company!

We have used Molitor for two different jobs. We are very pleased with the beautiful new outdoor lights that they installed. Each time they were fair in their pricing, responsive, and did a great job. Mr. Molitor is the kind of tradesman/person that simply instills confidence. He is honest and knowledgeable.

Absolutely fantastic! I appreciate how responsive Jonathan was throughout the entire process. They made sure to contact another 3rd party we were working with to ensure that everything that needed to be done was completed. Will definitely use Molitor again if/when we need it!

I'm a homeowner with several properties in Austin and I've relied upon Dan Molitor to do all of my electrical work since 2010. He's just an outstanding electrician. Even-keeled, smart, thorough, and honest. Everything is done by the book and so you can rely upon him to do the work right the first time, ensuring that safety and quality is secured. Dan has an outstanding assistant named Claudia that has always been extremely responsive to all of my communications. Molitor Electric is a small shop electrical company that allows Dan to really focus on the work that he is performing. I recommend Dan to anyone without reservation.

We called Molitor Electric for the first time a year ago, after enduring several years of lights flickering, breaker switches going off at bad times (when is there a good time?) and network losing connection. Dan Molitor diagnosed the fairly extensive problems, including the fact that our electricity was fluctuating on and off. That's why my ovens (microwave as well as stove) took so much longer to cook everything than they should have. Dan and his team handled everything, diligently and efficiently. And when a city employee caused a delay, which resulted in a power outage for hours, Claudia came over with stick-on lights and a cell-phone battery, and reassurance.They are all such nice people!So two weeks ago, when I was tired of getting a shock from a light switch in the carport, I got Dan to come again. That wasn't a simple problem either. He had to break through some HardiPlank that was installed by a home improvement company - which I will review harshly elsewhere - and correct faulty wiring that substandard contractors had done in 2015. I also had a new light installed over the front entrance to shine on the address. That took some creative design/ engineering. Dan wouldn't quit until I was satisfied. He and his whole team work so hard, evenings, weekends, all the time! And probably haven't charged nearly as much as they are worth.

I put in an after-hours request with Molitor Electric and received a phone call and text message back within the hour and an offer to arrive the next day. Dan, who ultimately serviced the home, was quick, professional, respectful, and remarkably direct with us. We've had Molitor come out to the house on a few occasions for simple tasks, and they've always treated the house as if it were their own.If you're searching for a local electrician to work on jobs big and small, call Molitor today.

I reviewed Molitor electric on Yelp, but I wanted to make sure that he's being ranked everywher people look. I have used Molitor for another job since my original review on Yelp in Feb 2019 (Dan replaced a standard switch with a fan/light switch, installed a video doorbell, added hard wiring and installing a floodlight camera). I would officially say I have a guy for that if anyone asked about electrical work. I trust Molitor to provide great service for a competitive price. I have recommended him to others on FB, on Nextdoor, in person, etc. Keep up the good work!

We have hired Molitor electric for jobs both big (installing a new breaker box) and small (installing a new bathroom light fixture) and have been delighted with their work each and every time. Dan and his team are communicative, honest, prompt, and very knowledgeable. We will definitely be hiring them again any time we need an electrician!

My home was struck by lightning during one of our recent thunderstorms which fried my fireplace gas line, fried electrical wires and circuit breakers that left me without power or hot water for some time. I called Molitor Electric in need of a Master technician to come to my rescue and Dan did exactly that!! He was professional, considerate and Excellent at what he does. Thanks again Molitor Electric for coming to my rescue in Georgetown Texas!! Be Blessed.

We had some electrical trouble on a job and called Molitor. They got to us fast and fixed the problem. They were professional and on time. Our client had Dan do additional work around the home and they loved them as well! The Austin Dustless team highly recommends Molitor Electric.

We had something fairly simple to fix (we hoped that was the case anyway!). Dan came in & got the broken disposal switch replaced in our kitchen and went ahead & replaced all 3 on that panel (for only $10 in parts). This was done w/in the hour for $150 hourly fee + the $10. It took all that time due to not so great tile work done in our kitchen by previous owners. He handled with care & it all looks good.It was a good experience & I think $150 base fee (for an hour) for coming out is about right for most electricians. I'm happy to pay this if it's someone I can trust. We'll call them again next time we need electrical help.

Great work! Dan gets advises as he works on what he recommends you should do w/ your project as it relates to wiring, outlets and lighting. Also -- he guides you according to code. Claudia is very helpful w/ billing -- she gets you the invoice quickly and processes payments with no hassle. Great team and great teamwork.

I took several estimates for the work to be done, but Dan Molitor took more time and looked for more creative solutions than any of the others. Their work was of the highest quality, and they came in under their estimate! They will be my electrician for life!

Great service. Friendly, dependable and knowledgeable. Dan installed a whole house surge protector after a power outage and surge fried my refrigerator and other appliances. Dan also installed brilliant lighting in my closet, kitchen & pantry. It’s great to be able to see clearly and remove the outdated yellowish lighting.

We really love Molitor Electric. They have always been very efficient and CLEAN, which I love, because I can't say that about every tradesman who has come into my home.He's also very honest. I had an instance one time where my water heater broke and was under warranty. When I called the water heater company, they sent someone out and told me it was an electrical problem. So, I called Molitor Electric. A technician was sent out right away and it turns out that it was not an electrical problem after all. The technician could have easily charged me for unnecessary repairs but instead showed me that everything was working properly and showed me how to keep the water heater repairman honest when he returned. In fact, this exact situation happened to me again some years later and I was able to show the water heater repairman that it was not an electrical issue when he tried to claim it was.

Molitor has worked on several projects for us, and performed all with the upmost professionalism, expertise, and efficiency. They installed dozens of new light fixtures when we first moved onto our current home, installed a new breaker panel, and have done a variety of maintenance and repair projects. They are highly experienced electricians with an enormous amount of institutional knowledge. They do things by the book, crossing i’s and dotting t’s, but are also creative and adaptable to a client’s wants or budget constraints. They take pride in their high level of craft and the attention to detail they give each project. Couldn’t recommend them more.
