Honest Quality. Thank You.

Great service!! Very knowledgeable!! HONEST!!

Professional and very good at doing an excellent job. Yes, I would recommend his company.

Prompt service for a great value. Jim knows his stuff. Hire with confidence.

Jim was at our house in 15 minutes and diagnosed the issue in less than 10 minutes!

Jim is the owner and electrician. Always reliable, reasonable and does great work. Very nice man. Highly recommended.

a short while back, James came out to our house, which me moved into following Harvey .... we had only been here a few weeks after the storm ... we had multiple electric issues here, as this house is 1950's era ... we were continuously blowing circuit breakers with our 1990's era appliances et al ... he not only has us up and running, but has done so with the blessing of the City of Houston attached to our newly installed breaker box!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

He came out to fix several things for us. He was very knowledgeable, careful, and quick, and charges a very reasonable rate. We highly recommend him!

Jim replaced several light switches in my home over to WiFi switches. He did a great job I would recommend him to anyone!

We used these guys when we moved into our house about six years ago. We had a lot of issues with the renovators who had done the wiring in the house. AC DC came out, gave us some neutral insight into the wiring and helped us with follow-up questions. Even gave some insight into how to follow-up with the city of Houston. Since then, when I've had electrical issues have contacted and Jim has always been responsive. Nice guy, knows what he's doing, and he's always honest about pricing and what needs to be done or what doesn't need to be done.

Update: Had to use Jim for some other issues. He's a really great guy and was super flexible on meeting us. Jim's by the books, meaning he always pulls permits, looks things up, etc. He even walked by a t-shirt heat press of mine and was like, "ohhh, let me fix that cord....". Even by the book, he's chill and honest, not intimidating at all.

Called Jim & he diagnosed the problem in minutes. Called Centerpoint Energy to fix what Jim said. After that, Jim came back & went above and beyond fixing more than what the original issue was. He really knows what he is doing. On top of that, he is courteous, polite & highly professional. Glad a friend recommended him.

I've had AC/DC come out and do some small jobs for me in the past and they did a fairly good job. However, one of the projects we're doing this year is the complete re-wiring of our home. I called AC/DC and the owner, Jim Caughman, came out to give me a quote.

I got the impression that while he was getting the information for what we wanted, it was a little over his head. He kept telling me that, because of the house's low roof, he wouldn't be able to change some of the wiring in the front. We're getting the wiring changed because we don't want to have that old, original wiring anymore so leaving some in place was not an option. I just thought that was kind of odd.

Anyway, he finished getting our information and said he'd email a quote to me in a day or two. A week went by and we hadn't heard anything from him. No call, email, or anything. After a few more days an email from AC/DC lands in my inbox. Instead of the quote he promised, it was a letter telling me he had decided to decline the job with no explanation. That was very unprofessional and left a bad impression on me. He could have at least called, talked to me like an adult and explained his reasoning. I won't call them again.

They send me Rocco, bad and INCOMPETANT, said the breaker was OK while it was burned out when another electrician pulled it out.

We had Jim replace and update our breaker box two years ago. At the time he assured us it would handle any future home renovations. We are currently renovating our home and have come to find out the work he did was without a permit and not to code on several different levels, and can't actually handle our renovations. So, we paid him $2400 two years ago to now turn around and pay someone else over $3000 to correctly replace the box and ensure it is to code. Based on this I could never recommend his work to anyone.
