Electrician in Round Rock, TX
From the historic downtown square to the newer master-planned sections off University and 79, Round Rock packs four decades of home building into one city. That mix is exactly why no two service calls here look alike, and why we diagnose the actual cause before we quote a dime.
We serve Round Rock from our Spicewood base with a licensed, family-owned team. Whether you are in an established 1980s street near Forest Creek or a 2010s build out in Paloma Lake or Teravista, we come ready for the panel, wiring and device styles common to that era.
The approach is the same on every troubleshooting call: a diagnostic fee to find the real cause, options explained in plain language, and optional, flat-rate repair pricing so the choice stays yours.

Wiring built for Round Rock
Round Rock homes span the early 1980s through the 2010s, so what is behind the drywall changes block to block. Older neighborhoods often have original service panels and backstabbed devices, where wires are pushed into the spring clips on the back of outlets and switches rather than secured under the screws, which is a frequent source of loose connections and flicker. Newer subdivisions tend to need capacity work instead: a NEMA 14-50 for an EV, a sub-panel for a pool or an addition, or circuits for a finished-out game room.
Permits and inspections for most of the city run through the City of Round Rock. We pull the permit and handle the inspection so a service change, a new circuit or a charger install is closed out to the current National Electrical Code. On the utility side, much of Round Rock sits in a deregulated retail-choice market where delivery runs over Oncor lines and you pick your own retail electric plan, so service or meter coordination goes through the provider tied to your address.

Signs it is time to call an electrician
Outlets feel warm or lights flicker
In Round Rock's older homes this often means a backstabbed device or a loose connection. It is worth checking before the heat damages the wire or fixture.
Breakers trip when the AC and kitchen run together
That usually points to an overloaded panel or circuit. A load calculation shows whether you need a dedicated circuit or a service upgrade.
You are adding an EV, a pool or a room
New loads often exceed what an older panel was sized for. We check capacity first so the addition is safe and up to code.

Real reviews from our Google Business Profile, in our customers' own words.
Chris and Caden did an amazing job installing my EV charger and helped assist me with other electrical questions I had around my house!! Very professional and kind. I highly recommend them!
Chris and Caden did a great job of installing a dedicated circuit and outlet for us. They were very thorough in checking out the existing circuit outlets and also patient with explaining everything before starting. I appreciated especially the quality of their work, their professionalism, and their willingness to throw in extra work where they saw fit at no charge. In short, I couldn’t be happier about the job they did.
Chris and Caden were awesome - they installed an entire new main panel and a new subpanel very effectively. We knew exactly what to expect at every step in the process, and now everything is up to code! If we need any additional electrical work, we will absolutely call Magnify Electric.
Trayvon is such a professional. He answers any and all questions. Does an amazing job in whatever is needed, and you’d never even know he had been here as he tidies up impeccably. He is our family’s electrician. I’d give 10 stars if able!
Felt lucky to have found Magnify Electric. Christian fixed the issue we were having with our hardwired smoke alarms, installed a whole-house surge protector, and fixed a longstanding light switch issue. He did everything with excellence and efficiency. He did a great job of communicating throughout the process. Thanks so much!
Showed as scheduled. Had to coordinate with PEC and everything went very smoothly. Christian was very professional and completed the job quickly. Very satisfied with the results. I would recommend them to do any electrical work in my home.
Electrician in Round Rock: common questions
Do you work on both older downtown homes and the newer subdivisions?
Yes. Round Rock housing runs from the 1980s through the 2010s, and we come prepared for both. That means original-panel upgrades and backstabbed-outlet repairs in the established neighborhoods, and EV, pool and addition circuits in newer areas like Teravista, Behrens Ranch and Paloma Lake.
Who is my electric utility in Round Rock?
Much of Round Rock is in a deregulated retail-choice market, where the power is delivered over Oncor lines and you choose your own retail electric plan. For a service change or meter work we coordinate with the provider tied to your home.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Round Rock?
Most electrical work in the city, such as a panel change, new circuits or an EV charger, requires a permit and inspection through the City of Round Rock. We pull the permit and handle the inspection as part of the job so it is closed out to code.
My older Round Rock home has outlets that do not hold a plug and a warm switch. What is going on?
Many homes built here in the 1980s and 1990s have backstabbed devices, where the wires sit in spring clips behind the outlet or switch instead of under the screw terminals. Those clips loosen over time and can heat up. We replace the device and secure the connections properly, then check the circuit for other weak points.
Can you install a Level 2 EV charger in my garage?
Yes. We install wall-mounted Level 2 chargers and NEMA 14-50 outlets with a clean conduit run from the panel. First we run a load calculation to confirm your panel can support the added draw, and we add a dedicated circuit or recommend an upgrade if it cannot.
Does my panel need to be upgraded before I add a pool, an addition or EV charging?
It depends on the panel's capacity and age. New loads like a pool pump, a finished-out room or a car charger can exceed what an older Round Rock panel was sized for. We run a load calculation first, then give you a flat-rate price for either a dedicated circuit or a full service upgrade.
What should I do if I smell burning or see sparking from an outlet or the panel?
Treat that as an emergency. If you can do it safely, switch off the breaker for that circuit or the main, keep everyone clear, and call us. If there is fire or smoke, call 911 first, and for a downed power line stay back and call the utility.
How does your pricing work?
For a repair with an unknown cause, a troubleshooting fee covers pinning it down, then you get optional, flat-rate repair pricing to approve so you can decide whether to proceed. An install with a set scope carries its flat rate before we begin, and financing is available on larger projects.
