Best Electricians in United States
Called over the weekend due to dishwasher not working and requiring electrical assistance. Don said he would call back Sat afternoon- which he did. Then he said he would call Monday for a better estimate of coming by. Never called, listed immediate cost of service and work required.
I called another electrician who provided a walk through over the phone to try to trouble shoot the issue without paying. Excellent guy who then came out and charged much less.
Thanks Don for the terrible customer service! I found someone better and cheaper!

Extremely easy to schedule and work with! Matt arrived slightly early (which I appreciated!) and completed our ceiling light install in no more than an hour. I was nervous he would have to rip out drywall to set up the wiring, but thankfully he was able to wire and install the light without any wall damage. He was professional, friendly, and the cost was reasonable. I would definitely call Prolite again!

So, I was one of the many people that were affected by the polar vortex that ripped through Illinois. This past Friday evening my pipe burst in my kitchen and flooded the floor and the crawlspace beneath. I did not know what to do and I was very confused where to even begin. After calling my insurance company, I looked on Angie's List to find a reputable plumber who had a emergency services 24 hours a day and who could help me with my emergency. Needless to say I was put on a waiting list with eight plumbers that evening. The next morning which was Saturday, I received a call from Mike at ServicePro stating that he would be out shortly to help me with my problem and reassured me that he can get it fixed. I had no idea that I would come in contact with one of the nicest, sweetest, brightest, compassionate and professional person that i've ever endured in connection with home repairs. Not only did Mike come in my home at the exact time he said he would and correct the problem, he reassured me that everything was going to be OK and literally hugged me because I was tearing up. Being Italian, I am a hugger and I hugged him back and thanked him for his kindness. I knew right then and there that he was a genuine person with a heart. I truly believe that Mike is a total asset to this company and I highly recommend anybody who has an emergency or just a simple plumbing job to use this company. Needless to say, my kitchen was torn down to the studs due to the water damage. Thank God that Mike came when he did or else the problem would have been much worse. I actually felt like I had a family member in my home, someone who I could totally trust and know that my problem would be resolved with his help. If I could give this company and Mike 100 stars I would. Five stars doesn't seem enough to me. Kudos to you Mike for helping me during a very difficult time and making me feel reassured that it would be OK. You should be commended for a job well done. You're presentation of this company proves to me that I will never call anyone else if ever needed! Thank you so very much! You're an amazing person and I feel privileged to have had you in my home in my time of need. Keep up the good work!!

We have an old two flat that we bought a few years ago and it needs some work. The lights in the back stairway were not working and Jeff fixed this for us and installed a new fixture too. He also converted 2 outlets for us that the previous owners had used as 220V outlets. Jeff was professional and pleasant to work with and is an experienced electrician.. We would highly recommend him to friends/family and will use him again in the future as we address others parts of the building that need updates. Thank you Jeff!!

We have been dealing with an on-going issue impacting our electric fuse box. We contacted no fewer than five different electric companies with no response before we were given the name of Safe Electrical. Charles, the owner, was wonderful in returning calls throughout this entire process. Alex was the electrician he sent out to look over our dilemma and he was very personable and professional. After getting their advice and their estimate we went ahead with the project. They communicated with us during the entire time and even contacted the City of Naperville for us when we ran into a stumbling block. Alex was on time, prepared with all the necessary materials and worked diligently to help solve our problem. We couldn't be happier. This is a company I wish other businesses used as a model when providing service. A big thank you to Alex and Charles at Safe Electrical.

Phenomenal, Fair, Quick, Knowledgeable, and Professional
Like most people, I don't like to have my time wasted. When our family electrician wouldn't return my calls, I found Dave online and decided to give him a call based on the positive Yelp reviews.
He responded quickly, had great availability, and was out right away. He walked me through exactly what he was doing, got it knocked out quickly, and charged an extremely reasonable price. Dave was also personable, knowledgeable, and professional -- The kind of person you want to do business with and trust.
As soon as Dave left we took down the old electrician's number from our breaker box and put his business card up there instead; as I know who we're going to call for future electrical needs.

Angel is the man! I called him around 2:30PM to have 4 light fixtures replaced in the stairwells of my house (high ceilings). I explained to him the urgency of having these replaced and he told me he could be there by 5:30 later that day. He actually showed up an hour early (4:30PM) and was done within 3 hours.
I highly recommend Angel, will be calling him back for future projects.

Owner of the company is honest. Did all work as expected. His workers were puntual and professional. Calls were returned, problems addressed quickly. Solid contractor.

They were fantastic from start to finish. Professional demeanor, communicated with us very well throughout. They initially quoted us on the job based on my explanation and a picture but then we soon realized after they got to the job this would not work because of a brick pillar that would have been very difficult to fish wire through. They assessed the situation and gave me different options and were very fair on the price. Cleaned up afterwards and were willing to answer all of my questions. Thanks again to Edwin and Brian. I will definitely use them again in the future.

I would be very careful before taking this electrician's advice.
I had an odd odor in my kitchen I wanted investigated, as I was concerned that this might mean I was having an electrical problem and at risk of a fire.
I called Homer and he was prompt and courteous in arriving for our estimate/appointment.
I then experienced the most noxious bait-and-switch experience I've had with a technician in a long time. He intentionally used overly technical language and I felt like I was with a used car salesman trying to sell me rustproof undercoating.
Homer exited my kitchen almost immediately, going to my panel box on a completely different floor and explaining all the different ways that my electrical system wasn't wired correctly. This was very confusing to me- since all the electrical in my house was newly installed 3 years ago by a contractor I know personally who is an electrician, and my house passed inspection.
Homer cited a few minor issues such as a few connections being double-tapped, and the box being incorrectly installed which apparently would put it at risk of fire, and the wrong screws being used. He blew up these minor issues into a huge problem that, apparently, was putting me at imminent risk of a fire and would require him to re-wire the whole box for $500. EXCEPT he wasn't available until almost a week later and never advised me to turn off the breaker for the area of the house where the issue was (the kitchen)- so how big of a risk was it, in his mind?? AND, mind you, he never explained why I would get a smell in the kitchen.
Next, Homer furthermore stated my 200 amp box wasn't being properly serviced by a 100 amp line from ComEd, and this was dangerous and he needed to fix it and would work to get the necessary permits. Look- I know my house wasn't updated to code, but when he said this job would cost $2,000-2,500. I almost fell off my chair. Obviously if this was a major problem, my house would not have passed inspection and I would have chronic electrical issues in my home, which I do not. PLUS, he said it would be OK to wait until Spring when I could save up for it- so, again, how urgent is the issue???
I had trouble sleeping that night, worrying about how imperative these supposed necessary safety issues were, and concerned about cost.
Thank God common sense prevailed and I contacted another electrician- someone HONEST, thank goodness- who came out the next day and thoroughly inspected my house for 90 minutes. He explained the double-tapping issue was minor and didn't need correction; he didn't feel the foreign screws were anything to be concerned about; he covered a very minor hole in the electrical box at no cost to reduce moisture intrusion; he inspected every single outlet in the kitchen (and hypothesized since they were all in excellent working order that perhaps the GFI circuitry was about to fail and could account for the occasional smell); yes my box was a 200 amp but so was the external wire; the 100 amp Com-Ed wire needn't be a major issue unless I'm trying to sell the house (as this is technically a code violation, but not a safety concern since there's no way I'm using anywhere near 100 amps of power at one time), etc. etc.
I paid him for his time and promptly cancelled my follow up appt with Homer. Who, by the way does not appear to be a licensed electrician- a fact you can easily check for yourself here: webapps1.cityofchicago.o…
If you want to work with a dishonest cheat who treats women like idiots and uses fear to try to sell unnecessary goods and services, well you know who to call. His number is above.

Great company to work with. Corey accommodated to my schedule, was very professional, and took the time to explain the electrical issues I was having. His 10+ years of experience shows through his knowledge, and his honesty is something much appreciated from a first time homeowner. Highly recommended, Perfected Electric Services will be my go-to for anything electrical for years to come.

I contacted Fixer last Wednesday to see if they could take on a small task that just required supporting a couple of bolts on the hinge of my fence. When I called, the representative couldn't quite understand the scope of my project, so he decided it would be best to schedule a consultation. I explained I only wanted a consultation if the project could be completed that same day. He said it shouldn't be a problem. He confirmed the cost would be $139 at time of consultation and that would be applied toward the total project of hired, also that would be the hourly rate. Knowing there's no way that project would be more than an hour. I was desperate and needing it to be done ASAP and so I agreed.
My scheduled time came and went and then I received a notice that my appointment was rescheduled to the following day and they would Credit $15 toward the cost of the consultation. I reached back out and again reinforce that I wanted to cancel unless the project could be completed on the same day. Again was told it should not be a problem.
Nino came out the next day. He was very professional, and nice. He explained he couldn't do the project the same day because he hadn't been booked for it, and even if he had, it was too cold for him to make the repair.
This was a blessing in disguise. I paid the consultation fee, and later got the estimate and was in shock - the total for this project was nearly $300. I had no idea they were going to charge $89 for their handy person to walk into a hardware store, on top of charging $50 (+20% upcharge) for parts which was a couple pieces of wood and a couple of bolts and the hourly rate.
My dad made the repair today in less than 30 mins with a drill and two bolts. He also used a saw to level out the bottom of the fence as Nino had also offered to do.
I just can't believe the cost, it's outrageous. I would not recommend this company based on cost and also the administrative to field miscommunication.

We bought a new dryer that was causing an electrical fuse to blow whenever we used it. I called PB Electrical Services and they came right away, diagnosed the issue as needing a new circuit breaker, and fixed it same day. Great service and I'll definitely use them for future electrical needs!

I'm very lucky to live close to Excel, as I'm very impressed with their professionalism and quality of work. Rates are reasonable, particularly given their guarantee (10yr on work, 5yr on materials). Response time was 90 minutes to return initial message, 1 HR for technician to arrive, and the issue was troubleshot and resolved onsite within an hour. Thank you Israel (electrician) and Omar (manager)!

I recently bought a new home and needed to re-wire some of the work done by the last owner as well as install some outdoor lighting. They were informative, professional, and fairly priced. They gave me a complimentary inspection in light of the issues they noticed. It worked out in the end and I'm very satisfied.
