Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

One of the only union electricians in the Channahon area that does RESIDENTIAL work.
Mr. Paxson did an excellent job!  We had three receptacles, two fans, and three switches installed.  Mr. Paxson gave us a very good estimate, and stayed in contact with us as we decided what to have done.  
On the day the work was completed he showed up on time.  
All of the work is top notch!
As the work was completed he kept the area very clean.
Everything was done within three hours.
Please see the photos and video I have posted.
If you want it done right the first time call him.
- I know good electrical work.
(I myself was in the electrical union previously.)

My parents' electricity was going out for the past couple of days due to the circuit breakers being loose.  I decided it was time to get an electrician to evaluate the situation and see what was going on. The house and the entire electrical system is original from the 1980's.  I came across Electric City and they had very good reviews so I decided to call them.

The electrician who showed up turned out to be the owner. He was very friendly from the start. I explained to him the situation and he immediately got to troubleshooting. He was able to determine the situation right away and explained to me everything he was seeing.

He was very honest in determining what needed to be replaced and what can stay. He even mentioned that it would be best to replace the entire box and all of its components but he would save me the money and get everything to be in excellent condition again.  

Overall, he replaced only what needed to be replaced and did it as if he was working at his own home.  Very honest work ethics and customer service. Price was very reasonable as well. Couldn't be any happier that I chose Electra City. Keep up the good work!

Killer service. They show up and knock the job out. No bs or messes. I highly recommend. Work is code and not some handyman hack job like I might do for myself! Competitively priced and an asset to the community.

so it drops to 30 at night, and I realize that my furnace really should be turning on.

I call jack on a saturday and he comes the next day. A Sunday!

fixed the issue well within an hour,  and charged a very reasonable rate.

I'm definitely keeping his card for the next round of work I get done.

My dining room light went out suddenly and I needed to have a flood light replaced. This happened on a Saturday, Eligio returned my inquiry that same day and came out on a Sunday afternoon. Great young man. Fast, courteous and reasonable. He far exceeded my expectation. I already have him lined up to do other projects around my home!!! I truly appreciate him coming out and getting the work done. Quality!

I hired these guys to do a whole bunch of small electrical jobs at our new house. Geronimo provided a quote via Yelp which seemed like a very fair price; not the cheapest but it was on the less expensive side of the quotes I received.

They were right on time, COVID aware, and did the work with care and attention to detail. It's clear that Geronimo and his team take pride in doing a quality job. Communication over Yelp and text was also clear and courteous. I don't think there's much more you could ask for, really.

GREAT COMPANY TO WORK WITH!!  Provided me with a piece of mind when preparing our 100 year old home ready for closing sale.   Great communication on the service provided and proposed service.  Pricing very competitive.

I recently had an emergency situation and was able to reach these guys. At the time I would have let anybody help me but I'm glad they answered. It turns out the problem was minor and they were honest enough to tell me that. I appreciate the honesty and great service.

Affordable prices and professional work. 5 star electrical company! I will definitely use them again.

The owner, Brian, of Aspire Electric has a really bad attitude, bad temper, tough to deal with.  I've dealt with many electricians, and this was one of the worst.  As one of the other reviewers mentioned, do not sign an open contract.  Have a specific price detailed out on what is and is not included, and any changes should be approved with a change request.

If a zero was possible, that is what I would give this contractor.  I hired him to install under cabinet lights.  He came out with an obviously untrained apprentice who did all of the work while he sat and barked out orders -- screaming at him much of the time.  At one point the apprentice was lost and did not know what to do.  Rather than helping him, he responded -- figure it out idiot and sat there staring at him.  Eventually, I started helping the apprentice myself.  He then billed me over a $1000.  Shortly after I received the bill, he called demanding payment.  I explained that I felt I was overbilled.  But, I agreed to pay him $700 that night if he would consider it payment in full.  He agreed, but has continued sending me invoices for allegedly past due amounts and has even filed a mechanics lien on my house.  Do not use this bully.

I agree with the previous review. Don't be wary of this guy. Just don't do business with him. He also asked us for 60% in advance. OK, I wasn't born yesterday. Nobody asks for 60% in advance. I asked him why it was so high. He said he had to buy supplies. We were installing lighting that we purchased. So what are we talking about - some electrical boxes and some wire?
He was supposed to be at our house at 10am. He called at 9:45 and said that he had some calls that delayed him and that he'd be about 2 hours late. He showed up at 12:30. Then he said that the lights (that I purchased from a reputable lighting company) were no good and that he couldn't install them. I went out to Home Depot and purchased 3 lights for the front closet. He didn't even try to put those in. He just left and said to call him when I had lights for the other closets. Why didn't he even try to put the other light in?
I went out that night and purchased 3 other lights from the lighting company we had previously been to and called Dino to let him know that we had new lighting. We set up an appointment for 1pm on Friday. Dino texted me on Thursday night to confirm that we were still on for Friday. I told him that we were still on.
At 11:26 Dino texted me that he had an emergency panel upgrade and that he would be 2 hours late. 2 hours late seems to be standard for him. Now I am not one of those people who carry my phone with me everywhere I go so I was unable to respond immediately to Dino. By the time I responded to him, he said that he had already made other plans and that he couldn't be sitting around waiting for my reply. Oh, sitting around like I had done for 2 days waiting for him to show up?
He offered to come to the house at 8am the next day (Saturday). Although I was extremely leery at this point, I told him that he could come to the house and finish the job. I told him that I expected him at 8am and that this was his final chance to do the job.
He went ballistic (just as the previous reviewer said, this nut job has a temper) and told me to keep the job and get somebody else to do it. Then he told me that he was going to put a lien on the house for the work done. Then he said that he was going to call the village because I didn't get permits. Let's see, if I needed permits to put lights in, don't you think my licensed electrician should have told me that?
Stay far, far away from this lunatic.

I hired Advanced Area Serv Corp to do the complete wiring for my 900 Sq Ft Master Bedroom Suite Addition. They were totally awesome! They accommodated my schedule and arrived on time. They completed the work on time and diligently cleaned behind themselves. I was impressed with their professionalism and would highly recommend them to all my family and friends

STAY FAR AWAY from this business.  They are offering deals on Groupon and Amazon Local and not even responding to calls for quotes, etc...  They  will offer you an appointment over a month away and then simply not show up.  It is excuse after excuse from this company and their secretary is completely incompetent!!!!!!!  They don't even deserve a star.  They should not be allowed to operate a business in the State of Illinois or any other state for that matter and if enough people file complaints hopefully they won't!!!!!!!
