Ask any electrician in San Antonio which call comes in most often and the answer tends to involve a service panel that was adequate in 1968 and is not adequate now. That is squarely the territory LM Electric works in. The services page lists mast upgrades, 125 and 200 amp replacements, sub and main panel installation, and EV charger install, replacement or relocation. Those are the jobs that touch the utility connection, the meter, the grounding and the permit, and they are not casual weekend work.

The project samples published on the website lean the same direction: whole-home backup, partial-home backup, and a solar-linked backup job dated 2022. Backup power has become a live subject across Texas since the 2021 winter storm, and the two paths available to a homeowner are a standby generator with an automatic transfer switch or a battery system tied to an inverter. Either way the panel usually needs attention first, which is probably why a company oriented around service upgrades ends up doing backup work as well. A site menu item for commercial lighting suggests some light commercial work too, though the site gives no detail on the scale of it.

Who this suits: an owner of a mid-century house in Monte Vista, Jefferson, Alamo Heights or the neighbourhoods off Loop 410 who has been told by an inspector, an insurer or a solar installer that the service needs upgrading. It also suits anyone adding a Level 2 charger, where the real question is whether the existing service has capacity for a 40 or 50 amp circuit or whether the whole panel has to be replaced first. A good electrician will run that load calculation before quoting, rather than after.

Who it may not suit: anyone hunting a 2 a.m. emergency response. The published hours end at 7 PM and Sunday is closed, and nothing in the material offered describes a 24-hour call-out. The Saturday entry reads 12 AM to 7 PM, which looks more like a listing quirk than a claim about midnight starts, so confirm weekend availability by phone. There is also an address inconsistency worth knowing about: the Google profile gives 1723 Capitol Ave, 78201, while the website contact block gives a Northwest Loop 410 suite in 78213. Neither is a red flag on its own, since small contractors change offices and update one listing before the other, but it is a reasonable thing to clarify when you call.

On evidence, LM Electric carries a 4.9 rating from 53 reviews on its Google Business Profile, read on September 30, 2026. Fifty-three is a modest count next to the large multi-trade companies advertising heavily across the San Antonio market, and that cuts both ways. Smaller review bases are easier to distort, but they also usually mean you deal with the same people from quote to inspection rather than a rotating roster. One published customer account describes a damaged service panel being repaired, the wider system inspected, and the service brought up to code. That is a fair sketch of what a service-upgrade specialist does, though it is a testimonial the company chose to feature.

Before hiring anyone in Bexar County for this class of work, ask for the Texas Electrical Contractor licence number and check it against the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation register. Ask who pulls the City of San Antonio permit and who meets the inspector, because on a mast or service change CPS Energy has to disconnect and reconnect, and coordinating that is half the job. Get the quote broken out: panel and breakers, labour, permit fee, and any drywall or stucco repair where the old mast came through. Ask what happens if the inspector flags something once the wall is open, which on a house with cloth-insulated branch wiring or an old fuse sub-panel is not unusual. And ask about the warranty on labour against the manufacturer warranty on the panel itself, since those are different lengths.

Compared with the alternatives in town, the pitch here is narrower than a full-service shop that also does ceiling fans and troubleshooting, and narrower work often means faster, cleaner execution on the specific jobs listed. If your need is a repair to a dead outlet or a flickering circuit, a general residential service company may be the more natural fit. If it is a service upgrade, a charger or a backup system, this is a sensible quote to have in the pile of three.
