We had been without our dishwasher for over a year. One day, it just showed no power. We had a storm one night, and the power came on in the dishwasher. It did that a couple more times after storms. I began to be concerned that this on-and-off thing might cause a fire. Although, the dishwasher was off all the time by then. The Terrapin employee, explained the problem, and made the repair to the dishwasher wiring problem very quickly. I couldn't be more pleased with the service. My only regret is that I hadn't called Terrapin Electric earlier.

Details: Inconsistent power • Circuit breaker panel or fuse box • 8 - 10 feet (standard ceiling) • House

He did a great job with our initial breaker issue then asked what else we needed help with. We were able to ask questions about various electrical things around the house and get the answers we needed! Would hire again.

Three knowledgeable people, including a professional Electrician, could not figure out what was wrong. Andreas came in quickly diagnose the problem and repaired it. If only I had called them earlier. Terrapin is the first place I will call anytime I have electric issues.

Roger and Matt did a fantastic job. They showed up exactly on time, communicated the plan clearly, and knocked out quality work quickly. They helped clean up some messy exterior wiring we had outside from tenants who lived in our house when it was a rental, and they installed some ethernet ports to help me pipe my high speed internet across the house. I would recommend them to anyone and especially if you're in the Bastrop area where it's hard to find low voltage electricians, these guys were a godsend.

Details: Communications (telephone, cable, or internet) • Install new wiring • One or more rooms • House
