Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Stephan was great from beginning to end of job.  I had a last minute rush job to do in my upstairs. Stephan was quick to reply,  reasonable with his estimate,  communicative throughout the day. Job was done quick, professionally, and cleaned up afterward.
Moving to a new home in January,  and Stephan will be my go to for our needs when they arise.

Of course when it's 90 degrees and 100% humidity all of our window AC units suddenly stopped working! Darrell came to our rescue and quickly assessed the circuit breaker and outlets and resolved the issue. I was so impressed that he answered the phone right away and came right over, despite it being 7pm. He was very knowledgeable and knew exactly how to proceed. So thankful we called Sims and Sons!

Rodrigo, the electrician, arrived promptly and was very pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable. I had 2 recessed lights that were not working. He was able to fix one while here, and for the other, he will have to order a part and return. The cost was very reasonable and the whole experience a good one.

I was looking for a reliable electrician who I could really trust since I'm in a 100 year old home and Ted was just that. We was able to squeeze me in because I was concerned with electricity being set up improperly by painters. He's quite pricey (charges hourly) but seems to know what he's doing

Joe is fantastic!  Joe did all this at our 80 year old house:
- replaced old ceiling fan with new ceiling fan/light fixture
- removed old track lighting and replaced with pendant lights
- installed chandelier
- installed can light and overhead light in kitchen
- replaced/repaired switches

Joe knows what he is doing and offered suggestions to improve our lighting ideas.  He dealt with the quirky wiring in our old house.  He was very responsive and worked quickly and cleanly.  Joe's prices are fair and reasonable.

I highly recommend Joe and will call him again if we have future electrical needs.

For all you single women, first time homeowners, who are getting ripped off out there, search no more. Chris is an honest professional. He's done mutliple jobs at my place now and trust me, I've searched the quotes. His work is clean, up to code, and even educates me on the do's and don'ts. For me, this goes a long way. His communication is exceptional, his thoroughness is easily visible, and he keeps it real. when you find a good contractor you share him, because there are a lot of contractors out there that are so demanding and the job is total trash ass. That's the worst.

I can't praise this company highly enough! We'd been struggling with a temperamental home-lighting system--in addition to one overloaded socket  from an installation carried out before we moved into the apartment. Thanks to Greenline Electric, perplexing lights are now beaming again, and funky wall fixtures have been normalized! Esteban carried out very complicated work with true expertise, great efficiency, and great friendliness. All very illuminating (!); 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.

Highlights Chicago has the brilliant expertise required to work fast, be reliable, communicative, and save you time, hassle and money. Their combined level of experience amongst their technicians and the owner leads them to be able to quickly assess, strategize, troubleshoot and problem solve to deliver fast, thorough, cost-savings solutions. 
Highlights is industry-recommended by insiders and their fellow companies for a reason: they're amazing. Owner Boz answers the phone himself while out in the field because he cares about delivering phenomenal customer service. 

My HOA had a complex electrical problem and had been ditched or ghosted by the Board's previously employed electricians who found the problem too complex, and too difficult to solve without a massive expense to the HOA that would have required a special assessment.
Within MINUTES, Highlights' brilliant owner Boz was able to assess the situation, strategized a clear game plan, was provide an estimate for work that other electricians were not capable of estimating, and then came to the site himself again when he brought his team out to deliver results. 

His team, Ben and Darrell, were able to quickly trouble shoot, assess the scope of work needed for the complex problem the HOA was facing with an aging system, and come up with a fast solution that made everyone happy and saved the HOA a ton of money. 
Ben and Darrell quickly restored power to our complex that had been out for 4 months at a fraction of the estimated time and materials cost that others -- who were clearly out of their depth -- were estimated. Highlights Chicago has the experience and expertise worth every penny because the peace of mind they gave us was priceless. 

Hope to make Highlights our HOA's go-to regular electrician and will be recommending them throughout the city to everyone I know.  Thank you Boz! Thank you Ben and Darrell! You're the best!

We are in the process of tearing down a house we recently purchased, and hired Rogelio at Alex Electrical to cut the main electrical line from the pole to the house, as well as remove the cable lines, the electric meter, and the electric box in the house. Rogelio was extremely knowledgeable, very responsive, professional, and got the job done in less time than the estimate. He also mentioned that his company installs outlets, light fixtures, etc. We will definitely be hiring him again in the future for any electrical needs we have. Thank you, Rogelio.

High quality work for a great price. Very impressed and will be hiring them for more work in the future. They hung a chandelier in my house with very high ceilings and it looks great.

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.

I ended up reaching out to Neville and Blacklite again and had a much, much better interaction.  He responded promptly, suggested a few things for me to check first, and then scheduled the appointment.  One of his electricians, Johnny, came out and took care of the requested job, plus some additional stuff while he was here, and gave a couple estimates for future jobs, too.  He was running a little behind, which happens, but Neville reached out early to give me a heads up.

I'd assume my first time around was just a fluke, but I will definitely be using Blacklite in the future.

We've used Kinetic Energy for some small jobs and liked them very much.  Just recently we hired them to (1) to remove an existing dual bulb motion sensor floodlight and then, in it's place, set up a Ring-brand motion sensor with a camera and floodlights on the alley side of our garage, and (2) install a Ring-brand doorbell camera/motion sensor on our front door.  The work included making sure both units were connected to our WiFi and working properly.  We got an estimate for the work weeks before we could get on the schedule.  Today we got the invoice for the completed work, and it was exactly the same amount as the estimate.  The installer Steve was very friendly, efficient, explained well what he was doing and didn't leave so much as a speck of dust when he was done.  This is an Oak Park business, owned by Oak Park residents.  SHOP LOCAL!

Tom and his crew do such great work! Highly recommend them. They installed 4 outdoor outlets in our yard and also trenched wires underground so they were no longer exposed to the elements. They were on time, flexible, and just care about doing the job right. Tom is a really nice guy who walks you through all the work ahead of time. Don't hesitate to reach out to him!

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.

I had a new kitchen facet I needed installed along with a couple of other small projects. Wylie did a great job, was quick, very nice, and explained everything well.
