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!

My wife and I decided to buy an electric cooking range, not knowing that I have to have a 240v outlet.
I looked around Yelp to search for help, and found Eddie, Electra City, with the highest/best review.
After talking to him, asking for an estimate, and seeing in person his work and service, I understand why he has such a good review.

Basically, Eddies is no BS, all work, and good price.
I'm glad I contacted him, and would call him in a heartbeat if I ever need any electrical-related help.

Eddie installed new switches in my breaker-box, installed new electrical line from the box to the kitchen for the new cooking range (and a separate one for special microwave).  It seemed like a lot of work, but he got it done in roughly 7hrs (his estimate was 6 to 7hrs, so he was right on target!)

I'd recommend Electra City to anyone.

We recently used Norb and Sons, they came on time and did a great job. Very nice and a good price. Highly recommend them.

Really great experience with Arnold. Booking the appointment was seamless, I called the day of to see if he was running on time and received a call back 5 min later. Pedro arrived within his window and called upon arrival. He was super professional and fixed our issues and explained how to prevent the problems for future. I really appreciated them and will call again for future

I had accidentally tiled over the spot on the electrical outlet where you attach one side of the cover on the kitchen backsplash. With my property sale inspection in a few days, I needed a handyman to fix my DIY blunder ASAP. Eligio was able to fix it quickly and the turnaround time from request to completion was less than 24 hours.  I recommend him and his business highly!

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.

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.

Had a GFCI trip during the night for no apparent reason, nothing running at the time.
Called to request that it be checked out. Showed up within 20 minutes, did a thorough evaluation and very reassuring.
Will definitely add to my address book for future use.

Brian completed running electric to my recently finished attic. What a job!! Returned calls timely, price as quoted and so professional. Highly recommend!!!

Had some outlets that were out and one that needed to be fixed! They fixed everything in half an hour and very reasonable pricing! They even called me the next day that I first called to let me know someone canceled and they could come today! Compared to others this was a great price! They were on time and worked quickly! Will use them for remodel!!

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 would never recommend Advance Area Service to anyone! The worker
who appears to be the person who operates this business was extremely
rude, and unprofessional. I recommended his services to assist an elderly family member, and he treated her like crap. He was rude, disrespectful, and
crass. He speaks to his customers with a negative tone and does not like
you asking him questions about the job you paid him for. He takes advantage of elderly people, by taking their money and informing them if there is a problem with his work, he will continue to charge them if he has to come back to correct his mistakes or inadequacies. He is particularly impolite to women, especially elderly ones. Be aware of this business and its services!!!!!!!!

This is the second time I have used their services, the first was perfect.  The second time I purchased a certificate through Yelp in early November.  They have been paid in full because it was (1) certificate to submit, Ed Smith said he'd come back to do the panel schedules, I trusted him because the first service was great.  He sent someone out to work on the the panel schedules but  to date the job is still incomplete, I still do not have the schedules even after making NUMEROUS phone calls and text messages to Ed.  In addition to that he never covered an outlet he installed.  I asked him what the problem was and he had no answer except he claims that he sent someone out twice, I gave him (2) different email addresses and haven't received one from him.  Even though, he knows my address and he could just mail out a hard copy.    I would not recommend this company to anyone, because he will take you for a ride, bottom line job is incomplete.
