Lone Star Electric was started on February 1, 1990, with two worn-out trucks, a set of hand tools, $2,000 in the bank, a Master's license, and a prayer. Doug Jones and Matt Robinson, owners of the company, attended the same high school, but did not really know each other. After graduating, they got jobs working with the same electrical contractor and over time, became friends.

Then Doug and Matt acted on their dream of starting their own electrical contractor business with the motivation of being a success in the industry and providing security for their families. Some of the keys to their success have been honest pricing, having integrity at all times, and treating all people with respect.

I recently had electrical work done by Lone Star Electric. One hard thing to do today is to get a contractor to call you back and Commit to you and your project. So even though I usually try to do must of the grunt work and bring in the experts to finish the connections etc., I thought I would treat myself this time around. I did select the lights and WiFi switch. Doug came out and gave me an estimate. Having everything needed but circuit breakers and wire it was easy for me to get timely service and easy for the technicians I thought.

Professional yes, timely yes, however based on circumstances I believe you will get the commitment and the honoring of the commitment that you want for your project done right. Patience is helpful with all the work they can choose from but again I love the lighting I have. I also have the switch working correctly as the technician was unfamiliar with it but small price to pay for what the lights do for my house at night. Thanks again Lone Star Electric!

Lonestar Electric did an extensive upgrade to the wiring of my 70 year old house. The eight day project with extensive attic work was done very professionally. From the estimate, communications with the office for scheduling, and the electricians on site; everything went smoothly in spite of the usual issues that come with an old house. Master electrician, Terry, kept the project moving. Many thanks.

Terry and his helper came quickly today and fixed a bad wall plug that was causing our bedroom nightstand areas to have no power. He diagnosed the problem promptly and fixed it. I highly recommend Lone Star Electric!

Wow! Initially what a company. Began dealing with Lone Star while still living in Dallas. I would get a quote sent by e-mail for the work I needed on my home in Abilene. From Ellen who could not have been more kind to me.
