RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL ELECTRICAL SERVICES
Looking for a licensed, trustworthy electrician in Austin? AC Electric has served the city since 1984. From the historic bungalows of Hyde Park and Travis Heights to new builds in East Austin and the hills of Westlake, we handle panel upgrades, generators, EV chargers, lighting, rewiring, and repairs for homes and businesses all over Austin. As a family-owned company led by Master Electrician Mike Short (TECL #20902), we know Austin’s homes, its code, and its electrical quirks better than just about anyone.
EXPERTISE BUILD ON EXPERIENCE
Four decades in one city teaches you a lot. We have wired, rewired, and repaired homes in nearly every Austin neighborhood, and we bring that local knowledge to every job, along with the honest, down-to-earth service that built our name.
WHY IT MATTERS
Austin’s housing is a tale of many eras, and each comes with its own electrical realities. Central neighborhoods like Hyde Park, Clarksville, and Travis Heights have charming older homes that often hide knob-and-tube wiring or undersized panels. The 1960s and 70s ranch homes around Allandale, Crestview, and Cherrywood are prime candidates for aluminum wiring repair and Federal Pacific panel replacement. Meanwhile, newer homes in Mueller, East Austin, Circle C, and the western hills are adding EV chargers, generators, and smart lighting at a rapid pace, especially with so many Teslas now in Austin driveways. Add in the Texas heat and an unpredictable grid, and backup generators and surge protection have become some of our most requested upgrades.
EXAMPLE
A 1970s home near Allandale with a Federal Pacific panel and aluminum branch wiring might need a panel replacement and COPALUM repair, while a new build in Mueller is more likely calling us for an EV charger and recessed lighting. We handle both, every day.

QUALITY WITH INTEGRITY SINCE 1984
National chains and out-of-area outfits do not know Austin’s older neighborhoods, its permitting, or its homes the way a company that has worked here for 40 years does. With AC Electric, you get a licensed Master Electrician, honest pricing, free estimates, and a family name that has stood behind its work in this city since 1984. We are not a call center, we are your neighbors.

A securely installed, properly wired fan is safer and quieter. With AC Electric you get a licensed Master Electrician (TECL #20902), four decades of Central Texas experience, and a family company that takes even a small job seriously. We will leave your fan running smoothly and your ceiling looking clean.
