Electrician in Alamo Heights, TX.
Master-licensed electrical work for Alamo Heights homes and businesses, residential and commercial. Serving the San Antonio metro, no call center.
Alamo Heights sits in Bexar County and is inside Keil Electric's San Antonio service area. Population is around 7,900. Downtown San Antonio is about 5 miles away, which runs around 12 minutes outside of rush hour. Alamo Heights is one of the oldest incorporated suburbs in the county and most of the housing dates to the 1920s and 1930s. Original 60- and 100-amp services, two-prong ungrounded outlets, and cloth-insulated wiring run through plaster-and-lath walls, so panel upgrades and partial rewires are the bulk of what we do here. The trade-off on these houses is always access: there is rarely a convenient chase, and the right answer is usually a slower fish and patch rather than opening a wall. Most addresses in Alamo Heights are served by CPS Energy.

Call nowHow we cover Alamo Heights

Common questions in Alamo Heights
Do you actually service Alamo Heights, or only San Antonio proper?
Alamo Heights is a regular part of our service area, not an outlying exception. It runs about 5 miles from downtown San Antonio, roughly a 12-minute drive, and we schedule it the same way we schedule in-town work.
Who pulls the permit for electrical work in Alamo Heights?
We do. Electrical permits here go through the City of Alamo Heights, and pulling the permit and meeting the inspector is part of our job, not something we hand back to the homeowner. Any licensed contractor should be doing it that way.
Can you upgrade the panel in an older Alamo Heights home without tearing up the walls?
Usually, yes. On houses of this age the service equipment is the part that has to change, and that work happens at the panel and the meter rather than throughout the house. Where we do need to run new circuits through plaster or masonry, we fish them and patch rather than opening walls wherever there is a path. We will tell you before we start if a particular run genuinely cannot be done without cutting.
