History
New Braunfels Electric was named in early 2008 by owner Richard Owen, but the foundation of this company lies deeper. In 1983 Richard began working in the electrical field at WR Electric in Seguin, TX. As he gained experience working in the industry he looked for local opportunities to advance professionally. In 1987 that opportunity arose with Industrial Electric. Here Richard was able to grow as an electrician, working his way up from Apprentice to Shop Foreman. After more than 10 years with Industrial, Richard founded BOE Electric in 1998 with a three electrician crew. Over the years BOE flourished and proceeded to grow into a company with over 35 people working under Richard. After moving to New Braunfels in 2007, Richard began to slim down his staff leaving only the best and brightest while creating a close-knit, family based business simultaneously. With the new year and location came a new name and in 2008 Richard re-founded his company as New Braunfels Electric. With hundreds of satisfied local customers, New Braunfels Electric is sure to exceed your expectations.

"New Braunfels Electric is the best service company I've ever used and I will refer all my friends"
-Judy Corey
"When I found Richard Owen and NB Electric, unreturned phone calls and long waits for service became a thing of the past. I have used NB Electric for everything from completely rewiring a 1920's house to commercial wiring at my business (formerly owned NB Mattress) to the smallest of "fix it" jobs. Richard personally oversees all work from the biggest to the smallest jobs. They are dependable and honest, and his crew are always friendly and polite. I trust the quality of the work they do."

"In November of 2009 I decided to re-wire my 75 year old home. I was very concerned with the old wiring, walls, and wood in my home. After interviewing 3 electrical contractors I decided to go with New Braunfels Electric. Being on a tight budget was a big concern but I also wanted to make sure that I was getting reliable workmanship and honest employees since they would be in my home for an extended period of time. Richard and NBE worked with me on the cost and we agreed on a reasonable price and a reasonable time frame to get the work done. Richard’s team showed up on time, was professional, courteous, and listened to my concerns. I am very satisfied with the workmanship, timeliness, and cost of my Complete Rewire (including a new Meter Loop). Overall, New Braunfels Electric did a great job on my home for a reasonable price and I would recommend them."
