Toby is the best, most respectful and knowledgeable advisor we have ever had. If you need heating or air, he is your guy! Thank you Comfort Experts for hiring amazing employees.
Jeremy came by to check out our AC and we ended up needing a whole new unit. He took the time to walk us through all the options and got us such a good deal that we couldn’t say no. He was awesome to work with and made the whole process super easy. If you need a new AC, Jeremy is the one to call!
Mark D and Tyler B were very professional and knowledgeable. My electric bill had jumped and I knew something had been going on with the outside unit sounding bad. Mark explained what happened and got me fixed right away.
Thanks for the great service!
Michael and Alonso came out to assess our AC which had stopped cooling in the upstairs for about a week and turns out the "return duct" had some damage of the metal ring that goes around to I guess keep it secure and hold its cylinder shape. It's impossible to know when or how it got damaged whether by the installers or the duct cleaners we had in earlier this year. Although they weren't able to fix the issue, they were able to identify the problem and get me scheduled for their Expert to come out the next day to fully assess. They were professional, seemed knowledgeable and quick to complete the assessment and get me on the schedule.
I've owned my house for about five years now, and have trusted Comfort Experts to do much of the repair and maintenance work on it, with outstanding results.

But nothing compared to the scope of my most recent project, a partial re-plumbing of all the fast-deteriorating (and close to breaking) galvanized pipe running throughout my 1920s house – most of which was creatively installed in bizarre ways, many years ago.

So of course, Comfort Experts was my first call.

And I'm incredibly glad it was, because as challenge after challenge was uncovered, the Comfort Expert team worked through and overcame each of them – from an oddly-placed waterline, to the excavation and installation of a new water main through a yard filled with rock and tree roots (shout-out to C&R Excavation!), to reaching barely-accessible areas of the crawl space under the house to replace difficult-to-reach pipes. Etc.

It was a true team effort, and the Comfort Experts technicians handled everything in stride with determination, patience and professionalism.

Tyler B. – only two weeks into his role at the time – was already insulating pipes, navigating the crawl space, and digging holes like he'd been on the job for months.

Zach answered the call when he was needed; squeezing into ridiculously small spaces to access areas otherwise impossible to reach.

Daniel was with me every step of the way, and I was less anxious about the entire project knowing that it was in his very capable hands. He confidently navigated each unforeseen issue – and there were many – while patiently answering my questions and constantly troubleshooting issues with the team.

And then there was Mark W., who was everywhere and seemingly capable of doing everything. He was in the attic running a new drain line for my HVAC. He was under the house installing new pipe. He was hopping into holes with a jackhammer to assist the excavation team. He had a tool for everything, and an answer to every question, and his high standards for excellence – for his own work and that of his team – also gave me great peace of mind.

What started out as a seemingly simple project ended up taking a full 3.5 days – but I am so grateful that Comfort Experts got it done, and was able to do it right. My 100-year old house will stay standing a little while longer thanks to them!
Zak came the same day and was very professional and informative about the issues we had with our AC unit. Even though we fixed our problem without needing to use the services recommended...I still do recommend Comfort Experts(Zak L) for coming out and being patient. In the future I will contact Comfort Experts if needed Thank you
Adam did a great job replacing our aging water heater. He was quick and efficient and answered all our questions thoroughly. He gave us a tutorial when he was finished and made sure we understood all the components. Now we have greater peace of mind!
Adam did such a great job installing our new water heater today. He was very quick, very efficient, and he took great care to show us all about each component. He answered all our questions and gave us a great tutorial when he was finished. Zach also was a great helper, because that old water heater was HEAVY!! Adam is another reason we stay with Hobson Comfort Experts. Highly recommend!!
Cooper not only repaired the major issue, he made sure to address anything he could during initial inspection. Gramps (100yrs this year) really needed that snake treatment for his toilet, and I am so happy to have a free-flowing home again!!
Alex and Kealan did an amazing job on my mini split install. Thank y'all so much for your attention to detail and excellent workmanship. If you are getting anything installed by Comfort Experts, know that you will be taken care of.

Whatever you call it: Fuse Box, Breaker Box, Fuse Panel, or Circuit Breaker Panel we have solutions for you

Yes, updating an electrical panel is usually a worthwhile pursuit. Modern panels fulfill current requirements and eliminate fire dangers, which contributes to greater safety. Enhanced capacity meets rising energy needs, avoiding tripped breakers. Upgrading facilitates the installation of new appliances and technology. Additionally, smart panels provide remote monitoring and control. While the initial cost varies, the long-term benefits of increased safety, convenience, and energy economy make replacing an electrical panel a worthwhile investment for many households.

The capacity of the panel, local labor costs, and installation difficulty are some of the components that affect the cost of an electrical panel upgrade. It can often range from $1,500 to $3,000. Larger homes or major renovations, however, can cost more than $5,000. Getting quotations from certified electricians who can evaluate your unique demands is essential. The cost of upgrading an electrical panel can be justified in the long run due to its greater safety and energy efficiency, even though the initial cost varies.

Signs that an electrical panel needs to be upgraded include frequently tripped circuit breakersflickering lights, and antiquated panels with inadequate capacity for modern electrical needs. The presence of a fuse box instead of a circuit breaker is also a big indication that you need an upgrade. Also, overuse of extension cords and power strips due to a lack of outlets is a sign that your home electrical system could use an update. If you intend to install new appliances or build a home addition, replacing the panel may be required as well. If you have this situation or see any of these symptoms, contact a certified electrician to evaluate and handle your electrical system’s needs.

When Should You Replace an Electrical Panel in your Fort Worth TX home?

Time catches up with everything. Over time, you may find that your system can’t keep up with your home’s electrical demands. Electrical panels act like your home’s central nervous system. They tell the electrical current where to go as it’s needed, but again, time has a way of degrading the components of the electrical panel. Specifically, when you start having issues with the breakers, it’s time to start thinking about the panel, too!

You May Need A New Electrical Panel If:

  • Your current panel uses fuses. Homes built before the 1960s were typically equipped with fuse boxes that weren’t cut out to power modern electrical demands. These “fuse boxes” are potential fire hazards and should be replaced with an updated electrical panel as soon as possible.  
  • Your current electrical system has had multiple or frequent repairs. Electrical systems degrade over time. It’s just an inevitability. However, the power coming into your home is focused solely in a specific area called the electrical panel. When components within your breaker box begin to deteriorate… It’s time to consider replacing the breaker box.
  • You plan on installing new appliances. New dedicated electrical lines for pools, hot tubs, or garage HVAC systems can significantly increase your electrical panel’s demand. New additions to your electrical demand, especially major appliances, may require more effort than your current panel can provide.
  • You experience electrical issues throughout your home. If ceiling fans and lights don’t work as they should, outlets are unreliable, or you notice strange burning smells or circuit breakers keep tripping, there may be a bigger issue.

Electrical Panel Repairs Fort Worth, TX

When Does Your Electrical Panel Need To Be Repaired?

If your panel is maintained correctly, you can expect it to deliver reliable power throughout your home for upwards of 25 years. Still, daily use and other factors, such as weather, can lead to issues that prevent the unit from functioning the way it should. When working with electricity, you should always call in a professional to ensure the safety of you and your home. Calling an electrician for routine maintenance and inspection can prevent minor problems from becoming big headaches. During an electrical panel inspection, your system will be thoroughly checked for signs of damage that may present a hazard.

You May Need Electrical Panel Repair If: 

  • Lights buzz, flicker or illuminate unevenly.
  • Outlets don’t work or have visible burn marks.
  • There’s a spark when you plug or unplug an appliance.
  • The circuit breaker trips frequently.
  • You notice a burning smell from the panel or outlets.
  • Multiple light switches don’t work.
