Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

They arrived on time for the estimate, quickly assessed the installation I wanted them to do (EV Charging Station) and sent me a competitive estimate the same day. They were able to begin the work almost immediately, arrived on time, were respectful of our property and belongings, and were thorough, quiet, and professional throughout. They cleaned up after the work they performed and  had an excellent work ethic.

We needed an outlet installed for our oven. Darrell responded to my call and came out to take a look at what needed to be done the same day. The following day Dino and Eli came out and installed the outlet for us. Everyone was so friendly and informative of what they were doing. Everything was done quickly and with care.

Would recommend this company for any work needed! Thanks again!

I had reached out on a neighborhood Facebook page looking for a recommendation and so glad I did! This company was so prompt and efficient with their work.  Marianne truly delivers exceptional customer service in the office. Her friendliness is a breath of fresh air when it comes to getting work done. They are very knowledgeable about pulling permits in the city and making sure work is up to code.  My only regret is we didn't know about them sooner! Fantastic local company!

Ted and his team we're very professional throughout our whole process. We were getting an electric fireplace installed and needed to move a conduit. With their recommendation to avoid breakers flipping we decided to put in a dedicated circuit. They were able to work around our schedule and finished the job in a day. They were clean and respectful to our space

Joe was knowledgable, personable, and charged a fair price. He fixed several faulty switches in our home quickly and efficiently.

Christian was responsive and professional. He fixed the issue quickly and within 24 hours of requesting the quote on Yelp.

Esteban came out on a weekend, and was quick, fair and thorough.
Edward replied quickly and was completely honest with what needed to be done then, and what would need further review.

My husband Tony contacted Ryan yesterday regarding a partial power outage at my mother's home the night before. Tony met him there and he checked the electrical service box. He determined there was a problem with the existing wiring and promptly traced, found and repaired the source of  intermittent interruptions.
He solved a complex wiring system issue with professional expertise.
We highly recommend Ryan should you require any electrical work.
He is our Go To Guy!
Thanks again Ryan.

These guys are amazing!  Super responsive and super kind.  They were efficient.  They explained the problem to me in a way that didn't make me feel stupid.  They walked me through ways to save on electric.  When the problem required buying something, they ran out and took care of it -- again, super efficient. Just great energy to have around your home.  I want these guys to become my go-to electricians.  I've worked with a lot of people in the past and I've been unhappy.  I'm super happy I've got a regular guy now!  

I HIGHLY recommend Highlights Chicago!  Won't go anywhere else.  

Thanks Boz!

Rogelio did a great job moving an outlet inside our kitchen island.

Fantastic guys. Knowledgeable and experienced. Upfront pricing unlike when I reached out to Jiffy (an online service provider). On-time and was totally professional and I absolutely love my installed dining room light. I will be using them when I move into my new home.

Needed a Tesla wall charger installed in our garage.  Jake showed up on time and offered a few different options with full explanation of each.

Once we agreed on scope and price he went to work.  You could tell he has installed a ton of these.   Job was completed in a timely manner and he left the area cleaner than when he started.  

Charger has been used daily for a few months now without issue.  Would recommend.

Like many of you, I found Blacklite and Neville on Yelp.  I double checked his ratings through fakespot.  This winter was brutal causing a water pipe to burst so to remedy this I decided to install a garage heater.  Most room heaters are just not powerful enough so I opted for a 240V Dr. Heater (electric) which would of course require 1) a 240V outlet and 2) the heater to be hardwired and mounted.

I contacted a few electricians with 4.5+ stars on yelp and heard back from Neville almost immediately.  His responses were prompt, professional, and straightforward.  Pricing was fair with no additional surprises.  I know that many of the more critical reviews lamented that testing was his ideal mode of communication.  This is meant to decrease distraction while he is on the job site.  Also I assume this obviates the need of a dedicated office secretary which cuts down on staff costs and overhead.  I have zero problem with this and actually found it to be way easier.

Scheduling was a breeze.  I got exactly the slot I wanted.  I was provided with a 3 hour window.  Neville asked me for pictures of the circuit breaker panel so he could get all the materials beforehand.  He arrived on time with another electrician.  Before the job began he surveyed the garage, read the instruction booklet, spoke independently to my neighbor who also had a garage heater.  I could tell that he takes pride in his job and great care in both the planning and the execution of these projects.  Hiring a stranger to do any task can be stressful, but I was immediately reassured that he was so thoughtful and methodical.

The rest of the project went very smoothly.  Project time was exactly how long he expected it to be.  He worked efficiently with no breaks in three hours.  I appreciated his surgical attention to detail.  I am very happy with the work and would wholeheartedly recommend Neville.  I love the fact that the work was not subcontracted out and that I worked with the company owner directly.  What impressed me the most from the Yelp reviews is not the glowing comments.  I respected individual responses to these reviews (good AND bad).  It is clear to see that he values feedback and that he takes responsibility when things should have gone better.

Payment transaction was likewise smooth and I received a receipt via email the same evening.  You would be in very capable hands with Neville and Blacklite.  Look no further!

I had a problem that two other local electric companies couldn't fix - pulling wire up to a second floor laundry to turn a 20 amp outlet into a 30 amp outlet.  Well, one of them wanted to charge a small fortune to attempt it, and another said he didn't think it could be done.  Carlos came out with a helper, looked things over, and had me fixed up the same day.  He stopped by later with two cover plates to choose from, which he didn't even have to do, in my opinion.  Was super professional and friendly the whole time.  And the price I paid was reasonable.  

So it's not like I hope I have future electrical problems or anything, but if I do I'm never calling anyone else as long as I live in River Forest.

Honest, transparent about costs, and delivered excellent work on time for installing an electric car charger. He looked up specs on the car company website, going the extra mile to ensure he did the best work.

Frank is very professional.  Showed up when he said he would, explained what he was doing, and even provided a lower price than what he first quoted.  I will definitely call him again for any electrical job.  Highly recommend!

Alex responded to my posting quickly, was clear on costs, and came out at 8am the following day as promised. I gave wrong information on parts and he was ready with solutions to salvage the job and gave great advice. Would definitely hire again.

Good experience with this team! First, i don't think you'll find a more integrated user experience when chatting with them. They communicate mostly by text and have a sound internal system to track your conversations and requests.

I called them out to install a custom barn door my farther made for me. My team, Louis M and Toufik B, worked well together. It was a long process to figure out how to install a custom barn door with a rail kit that I ordered, in a 100 year old building. Though there were some tricky issues along the way, these guys found a way to do it!

In one of the last steps, the excess rail needed to be sawed off with a special electric saw. They realized they didn't bring the right tool to finish the job. I appreciated that the teamed turned off the clock to go run to their shop and pick up the tool to make it perfect. We were impressed by what turned out to be a job well done!
