Electrician in Universal City, TX.
Master-licensed residential and commercial electrical work for Universal City homes and businesses. Serving the San Antonio metro, real person on the line.
Keil Electric works throughout Universal City in Bexar County, population about 20,000. Downtown San Antonio is about 17 miles away, which runs around 26 minutes outside of rush hour. Universal City grew up alongside Randolph AFB and most of the housing dates to the 1960s and 1970s. Frequent military relocations keep the resale and rental market moving, so inspection punch lists drive a lot of the work: GFCI protection in kitchens and baths, grounding corrections, and panel replacements on equipment that is now well past its service life. Most addresses in Universal City are served by CPS Energy.

Call nowHow we cover Universal City
We run Universal City as part of our standard San Antonio metro route. At about 17 miles out we can usually work you into the same schedule as an in-town call. Permits and inspections for electrical work here go through the City of Universal City, and we pull them rather than leaving that to you.
Common questions in Universal City
Do you actually service Universal City, or only San Antonio proper?
Universal City is a regular part of our service area, not an outlying exception. It runs about 17 miles from downtown San Antonio, roughly a 26-minute drive, and we schedule it the same way we schedule in-town work.
Who pulls the permit for electrical work in Universal City?
We do. Electrical permits here go through the City of Universal City, 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.
My Universal City home still has its original panel. Is that actually a problem?
It depends on what is in it and what you are asking it to do. A sound 100-amp panel serving a house that has not added major loads can be fine. What is not fine is aluminum branch wiring terminated on devices never rated for it, a panel brand with a known failure history, or a service that is being asked to carry central air, a modern kitchen, and a car charger. We will tell you which situation you are in instead of quoting a replacement by default.
