Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Showed up on time, worked hard and fast, charged me a fixed rate, and when a wrinkle emerged (turns out the job needed to run a new wire/breaker), Stefan called a colleague who lives nearby who joined him and got it done quickly and efficiently. He stayed masked throughout, and was unfailingly polite. Will most definitely work with them again!

I had a great experience working with Sims and Sons. Nate and BJ we're both great! They helped set up my EV charger and ground our electricity. They took the time to understand what we wanted to do, our future plans, then gave us a great recommendation. I'll definitely use them again in the future!

Hired to install some fixtures and reroute power. Our technician was prompt, professional, thoughtful about the work and the final quality and attention to detail was excellent. I will 100% be using T & D electrical for any future electrician needs.

I was a little mystified and over my head rewiring some outlets in my condo rehab; one light circuit kept tripping a breaker. Based on these great Yelp reviews, I called Ted, and couldn't be more pleased with his service. He was at my door in Wheaton literally within an hour, and on short notice. Knowledgable and friendly, he showed me where I had miswired a plug, and offered some tips for future DIY wiring, all for a very reasonable rate. Highly recommended. Thanks, Ted.

Great experience. Very punctual, professional, and knowledgeable. We had our issues taken care of within an hour. We were very impressed.

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

Installed 2 outdoor outlet boxes on rooftop deck. Excellent work. Clean and paid attention to the details. Highly recommend.

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.

Spoke to receptionist and was told I would get a call back. Never did. I guess business is not important to them.
Update: The next day I received a call from Kamal, (hope I spelled this correctly) who apologized and told me the reason why the call had not been returned. He then proceeded to inquire about my electrical issue and asked me to send him a picture of the issue so that he could direct the proper assistance (someone dealing in low voltage) to me. This is a man who cares about his business and I much appreciate his reaching out to me. I appreciate his offer of assistance to direct me to a technician who does deal with my specific issue. I have changed my rating of this business and wish to thank Kamal for his customer care and concern.

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

I wanted to give a big thanks to Jose and Rodney for the fantastic job they did in our home! We had an entire room needing new recessed lighting where there was none before. They got the job done in a timely fashion and the result is beautiful. We also had sconces put in a wall which never had fixtures there before. Several other electricians quoted a similar price as Tweaks and Finishes, but would not do the patch and paint work for the damages done in the process; they said I would have to hire someone else to patch the holes in the wall! Jose and Rodney did it all, from installation, to patching and painting, from start to finish. No one else that I spoke to offered this complete service! These guys are a great team and are great at what they do.

I highly recommend Tweaks and Finishes for any job, big or small, and will be happy to work with them in the future!

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.

Kudos for fast, friendly, and great service. I needed some electric work done with a short window to get it finished. The reply to my text was quick. Within an hour an appointment was set for 3 days later which is when I was available. Johnny showed prompt. Got the job done and gave me some great ideas for other remodeling questions. Thanks guys. You are in my phone list and will pass along your great job to others in need of electrical work.

Ted and his crew have been doing work on our Oak Park bungalow for a number of years. He's honest, reliable, fair, and accepts your problems as his own. I had Ted rewire a bunch of antique light fixtures for our basement. He not only got everything working, but helped figure out the best way to install to maximize functionality and beauty. He swapped out electrical fans. Installed sensor lights outside. Upgraded our amp panel. Generally, I trust that if I present Ted with a problem, he'll solve it and solve it at a reasonable rate.

TOM Electric Services is an excellent company for electrical repairs. The electricians are extremely knowledgeable and experienced. They provide great customer service and have always been able to answer questions, solve problems, and other issues with my electrical system. I highly recommend them!

Outstanding very communicative on time reliable all above in every category.  Always answers always explains what is needled and why

Pros: responsive, punctual, honest, respectful of my home, fair pricing
Cons: none found
Alex did a great job replacing a broken switch. He responded quickly to my initial request and was fast in communicating throughout the scheduling process. We are very happy with the quality of work.
We'll likely have to have most of our old wiring replaced and are looking forward to have Alex and his team back. Seems to be a newer company, and I'm glad we took a chance on them.

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.
