Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Stefan responded quickly with a reasonable quote and his provided his availability. He came to replace two dimmer switches, but had brought the wrong type. He ran to the store to get the right items, completed the repair, gave me great advice on how to reduce my energy consumption, and charged the original flat fee he quoted. I definitely recommend his services!!

On a holiday weekend our AC Wiring crapped out and it was 90+degrees. Darrell answered the call himself, was over within an hour and was quick to access the problem. Problem fixed that night! We highly recommend them for help, especially in emergencies!!

I had some installation work done recently by T&D for the first time, and they were excellent all around.  Starting with Jenna, who I spoke with to schedule the appointment and pass on the details, and ending with Rodrigo, the tech, they were courteous, professional and competent.  Great work, reasonably priced.  Highly recommend them.

Ted is excellent, he really knows his stuff! He came with in days of providing me an online quote. He was very professional, on time, and very knowledgeable. Reasonable prices and even did a few extra things that I had not mentioned in original quote request. I highly recommend Ted!!!

Quality at affordable prices. Had him do several things including installation and fixing some other electrical issues. Other places quoted weeks to come out, he completed the job in under 7 days. Will definitely call for all future electrical work.

So I just purchased a new home and having some circuit breaker issues. Found Chris on Yelp very nice guy. Very responsive. Came right out, Fix the issue under 15 minutes so I will definitely be calling him back out to finish the work, Definitely give Chris a call or give him a chance if you are having any type of issues with circuit breakers or electrical issues definitely recommend this business. Thanks, Chris

I live in a real old house in Oak Park, tried to replace the possibly just as old light fixture on the porch myself and ran into a lot of rust and stripped wires and stuff I was not expecting so I knew I needed professional help. Edward at Greenline had Esteban out here in just a couple of days (would've been even sooner if I was available) and the job took 15 minutes and it looks great!

The power went out in half my house on Sunday morning. After resetting all the circuit breakers and calling Comed. I starting calling electricians. My call was promptly answered, and Mr. Ryan explained that he was out on a call, would be available in a couple hours, and he would call me back. He did call me back, but by that time, Comed had restored the power. While he did not actually come out and provide service, I was satisfied with the response and would not hesitate to call Ryan Electric in the future.

I've found my new go-to electrician. I chat with Boz about what I need and he sets up a team that can be at my door within a day or so. I've now had Ben, Gerardo, Rolando and Hugo work on my new condo, and they all have done a stellar job. Work has ranged from adding track lighting to installing power/AV for a wall mounted television.  I would recommend them to anyone looking to have work done in their home!

Steer Clear. This is not a legitimate electrical company. Gave me an estimate and did the electrical work for an EV charger in our condo building. Even though building management didn't request City of Chicago license initially, they checked for it later (it can be asked for at any time) and this company is not licensed in the City of Chicago and its illegal to do residential work without it. The job was done completely wrong and he almost blew the sump pump and electrical to entire building by connecting to a panel inexplicably and was told not to. Installed wiring that was bent and broken and taped together which could have caused shocks and burning. New contractor easily installed it - no bends or breaks. The wall outlet installed was open and exposed, and if water dripped to it could electrocute people. Sloppy, cut corners, dangerous, illegal and not up to code. Absolute garbage, rushed work. Refused to get City of Chicago license and come fix job. We will be pursuing our money back. This is an illegitimate electrical company. Avoid at all costs.

Addendum to review:

Right, I'm not an electrician , but here are couple facts that a real electrician should have known and done, that found out about your job.

You were told by the building engineer to use the 480/277 volt panel because 208/120 was already at the capacity.

You just plainly ignored that and proceeded with your version. Maybe you don't know the difference between two.

You ran 208/ 120 wires through 480/277 panel which was a huge code violation and a human life safety issue.

And that's not all:

Then you spliced those wires inside that panel multiple times -- code violation.

You then decided to use lightning contractor conduit to run the wires and overfill that conduit -- code violation.

You installed the breaker at the wrong panel (which was at capacity) so you overloaded that panel.

The wire was badly scraped

You removed pipe straps and made the electrical conduit loose -- code violation.

J boxes that you installed were unsecured and loose with knock outs missing -- code violation

I'm still waiting on the city of Chicago electrical registration paperwork  from you.

A qualified electrician would know right away that he is working with 480/277 volts and would have informed me that i needed a step down transformer in order for the EV charger to work!

On top things you have charged me over $2K for 2 J boxes and a roll of #6 wire, which costs $600 at the most. The piping was already 97% there , so what took you so long.

It took a qualified electrician a total of 8 hours to remove the faulty work and install everything from scratch including installing the transformer.

We'll happily accept a refund to settle this matter

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.

I hired Jake and Urban Power to add two electrical meters and relocate the circuit breakers out of the garden unit to a common area so all tenants could have access to them at my 3-Flat property.  He is a master of his craft and did a great job providing solutions to the issues I presented and working efficiently on the install and relocation as well as managing the permitting process with Com-Ed.  He has deep experience working with rental properties and gave me some great insights to add value to the property including installing security lighting which I hired him to do as well.  I would highly recommend Jake and Urban Power for any electrical job big or small.

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!

We hired Ted and his crew to run electric underneath two lawns to re-power alley facing garages on two properties.  Ted responded by providing a fair estimate, getting the permits from the Village, and getting the work completed, correctly and speedily.  Overall, I was very impressed with Ted's knowledge and work ethic.  He did a fantastic job and I would recommend him to just about anyone.

I recently hired this electrician to install a Ring doorbell in my home and I couldn't be happier with his work! He was very professional, promptly arrived on time, and was able to install the device quickly without any problems. He even took the time to explain how the doorbell works and answer any questions I had. The installation itself was seamless and the doorbell works perfectly. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and dedication to providing top-notch service. I would highly recommend this electrician to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled professional. Top-notch service and a true 5-star experience! Thank you, Tom!

Ted changed out fixtures throughout our house, including a difficult chandelier in our dining room. He also fixed a hot outlet and looked at our garage electrical. He was on time, fairly priced, and did great work. We'll be using him again.

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.

Issue with fixer is that schedulers and concierge have no idea how long tasks take. My fixer scheduled for 3:30 came at 7:00.  They cannot actually give you an accurate time.

Unfortunately the problem with smoke detector was not fixed. Simple issue of battery replacement was too high to reach. He left and one hour later beeping started again. Disappointing experience. So after $94, I have to hire an actual electrician.
