Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Mr Paxson was very professional. He arrived on time, provided a written estimate via email, followed his estimate, was polite, cleaned up his mess... fantastic experience!

I've used Eddie at Electra-City 3 times now.  

The first time was to install a switch in my garage to control the garage door opener to get it up to code.  

The second time was to replace some switches with wi-fi switches that I bought for my home.  

The third time was to install two hard-wired ring security cameras to replace the existing lights in my backyard and balcony.  

Eddie was great all 3 times.  He's very knowledgeable, friendly, and charges a very fair price.  I would highly recommend him!

so many years with this company and started to fall by the wayside when i had to wait without responses when to replace ceiling light....no response .... called again and again....no response....i gave the bozo all my light bulbs and ceiling fixtures and more because i thought he would appreciate my generosity not for a lesser charge but just because he might use the beautiful fixtures i couldn't use in my current condo!
alas, i was ignored and all i needed was to replace the fluorescent light in my kitchen!  stupid ignorant did me a favor when i also needed partition removed and the electrical remodel who he referred didn't even have a license!  i say fu norb....did me a favor and a safety net!  dmn it all!!!!

We had Arnold electrical out to replace 2 light fixtures and install ceiling lights in our bedroom. Robert showed up on time, did a great job with all three jobs and cleaned up after himself. I'd recommend Arnold electrical and I'll use them again.

We had a really great experience working with Eligio and Laura! I posted about our impossible back door that had swelled and shifted over the years. He was very quick to respond, gave a very fair flat rate, was flexible with our time constraints and showed up promptly next day to fix it! We've had two people not show up to give us an estimate so I was relieved when they arrived! They looked over the problem, explained what they could do to fix it, then worked quickly to correct the problem! They even went above and beyond to realign hardware for no additional charge! The door opens and closes SO smoothly which it's never done since we bought! I will definitely keep their number and use them again in the future! It was an absolute pleasure working with them!

AJ and his team were absolutely superb. I've used electricians in Chicagoland before and AJ was simply top notch. From customer service to pricing, to the efficiency with which the crew worked, and the fantastic outcome, our experience was outstanding. AJ's team upgraded our 100 AMP panel to a new 200 AMP panel and installed two electric car chargers. Kudos to Gadertech Electric!

This is the best electrical contractor in the area.When I had a short in my kitchen, two other electricians could not find the problem. I was told that I would need to gut my kitchen to either find the break or to just have it rewired. Luckily a friend referred me & told me to I call Olson before making my decision. They came out promptly & luckily found the issue. The others were on the right track, but stopped short of finding the issue. Steve & Paul located the break, & were able to fix the issue without having to gut the kitchen. They do quality work, & are extremely knowledgeable. I refer them now, & will only use them for my electrical in the future!!

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.

THIEF !  LIAR!  CHEAT!  THIEF!  LIAR!  CHEAT!
Dino asked for 1/2 upfront 500$ night before job.  Then didn't show up day of !  Didn't answer phone!  Or text for 24 hours!   Next day after I canceled payment with pay pal he called to say couldn't do job with out the money that we have in limbo now?  And he caught a 24 hour bug ! (After doing what ever he does Friday nights!) Didn't apologize at all for anything .  In fact he then told me he would return money but he had to call back all the other clients that called him FIRST!  I had to 3 way him and pay pal to get him to believe me telling him  that he could return money without it taking 30 days!   Then he did not before starting to sware over the phone that I can just get my money and pay him in check.   Careful he can get a temper!   This morning PayPal informed me his return was denied due to INSUFFICIENT FUNDS !  6 days after I payed him he still didn't have my money knowing the return was coming!!  Never mentioned he spent the money.  I gave him every chance to at least be honest and he lied the whole way.  He texted us this morning in response to us Leaving a very unhappy message . And He texted back That we screw** him!!!  ?   And he refused tell us where are money went.      
BEWARE.  SCAM ARTIST.   LIAR.   CHEAT!!!!!!

- 100 STARS!!!!!!   Hope I get my money back
So I can get electric for my a/c for my 5 month old baby's before a heat wave!!!!  
Thanks Dino !
Dean Hightower. Still waiting on a apology and the truth!

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

They book appointments with 3 hour window of wasted time (2 times I booked in my case) and they simply don't show nor call to advise as to why. Receptionist is also only contact in office and she is clueless as to how to handle customers or bookings (bad attitude).  Read their Angie's List reviews too and you will see it is a recurring complaint.  Their excuse for this poor service is emergencies or unforeseen problems. Not sure even a brain surgeon has as many emergencies as they do where they can't even update waiting customers. There are no apologies only excuses and lies. It was so bad I forwarded their ridiculous lies in messages we exchanged on Angie's list, saved a voice mail from owner who receptionist claimed had come out special just for me.  His voice mail had no apology, said his jobs ran late (oh really cuz receptionist said u came out just for me), but do I still want him to come at 4:22pm...window was late morning til 2pm. Receptionist referred to me as a snob because I didn't guess the guy who called was the owner and he apologized in his voice mail (which is also a lie as he didn't say he was owner or sorry).  Anyway Angie's List is fully refunding my money for this special offer I prepaid for. I'm sure based on other reviews they won't be on Angie's for long. I have all the backup, including voice mail and sent it all to Angie's List...so no disputing any of this.
