Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Had an issue with an outdoor electrical outlet that impacted my landscape lighting.  Called the main number at 8:30am and Noel was at my house by 3pm (exactly when he said he would arrive).  He diagnosed and fixed the problem in under an hour at a reasonable price.  Had no prior experience with this company but will be using them for electrical issues going forward.

Awesome service. Super helpful.  He just gets done what needs to be done and isn't freaked out about messy projects. Mike helped me with 2 projects in the past - I needed a backup generator wired up to my garage sub-panel and his crew got it done quickly.

I also had a small basement water leak behind another home's electrical box - so I needed an electrician and leak sealer present at the same time. Mike was able to work with our schedules to get the job done - he removed the entire box and gave us access to the leak to seal up, then he re-assembled it back to normal.  Really happy with his old school style of getting things done.

Good service, but no clear fee structure.  I recommend getting in person estimate or risk being over charged.

HE ONLY WORKS IN HYDE PARK, DON'T CALL HIM FOR ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD. But he's great, communicative and responsive, honest, goes above and beyond. We had to remove old electrical equipment from the side of our new house and while he was doing it he recognized another issue up there and resolved that for us as well. Very skilled and capable. We also are observing strict social distancing right now, which Peter was happy to respect--we did everything over phone and email.

I can not thank Aardvark enough for coming out and assisting me. They were prompt and so polite!

I found them from Yelp and am glad I trusted the reviews.

Don't hesitate to ask them for help!

I recently bought a new building and during the home inspection I was told it would be a good idea to get the house rewired due to the fact that it had cloth wiring. I found Current Electrical and made an appointment to have the house inspected. I mostly dealt with Don and with their electrician journeyman Ovi. Very professional and knowledgeable was Ovi. I highly recommend Current Electrical. They rewired just about the whole house, installed ceiling fans, installed light switches and wall outlets.

I'm so glad that I called Skyline Electric. I had been having a problem with my track light fixture as the lightbulbs that I put in would never stay lit. I reached out to Skyline and they were really fast and responsive. Two days later they came out and fixed it quickly. The service was fast and friendly. I would call them for any other electrical needs I have. Easy breezy!

In a Chicago winter, there are always going to be plumbing and heating problems and technicians get swamped with requests for emergency services (missing appointments) or want to charge an arm and a leg when they arrive at your house. I have used these guys twice now and both times they were reasonable and helpful. They gave me a reasonable quote through the yelp app, and upon arrival, seeing the problem not as big as before, adjusted the price even further. They always respond within 24 hours, and schedule arrival within a day or so of your infractions. Morever, the tech, Jose, is easygoing and pretty accurate in his assessments and handy enough to address various types of problems I've had with water heater, furnace, and showerhead water flow.

We needed our old smoke detector fixed. Volodymyr was quick, straightforward, and professional. He also replied to messages within a reasonable time frame. Highly recommend!

Super helpful and professional from beginning to end. Their quote was very reasonable. They were able to give us an accurate quote from several photos and did an exceptional job installing our pool table light. They ran electricity from the nearest source and left absolutely no damage when we were anticipating having to do dry wall repair! We will definitely use them for future electric needs!

Gino helped me get my apartment up to code with some bad electrical outlets. He was very prompt, friendly and efficient. I know it's difficult work trying to upgrade old wiring and construction. He was very resourceful in getting that task done for me.

We had a complicated electrical issue in our condo, where our furnace was connected to the building's shared meter electrical panel and we needed to reroute it to our own unit's electrical panel.
Hardt's electrician Todd was able to come out and fix this issue for us on short notice. He did a great job on a difficult wiring problem, and was able to investigate, diagnose a reliable solution and complete the job quite quickly. I highly recommend Todd for his skill, general know-how and integrity.

Mo was great. I had a list of tasks and he took care of each one. From fixing a hinge on an outside gate, caulking in two bathrooms, replacing a faucet, replacing toilet rings, and redoing a laminate floor. Each was accomplished in a timely manner and  was quality work. I would definitely hire him again.

I am amazed that I am the first person to review this company. Any one who owns property knows how wonderful (and difficult) it is to find a professional, reliable, funny, and super friendly electrician/plumber/contractor/handyman. Well, with Ed, I found The One. He's just fantastic in every way. I recently hired him to repair the doorbells at my two-flat and, as always, he was reasonably priced and available that day. I've used Ed before for some minor electrical work, and this time was no different. He quickly diagnoses the problem, gets it fixed, he's a pleasure to chat with (he has that dry sense of humor that I love), and his prices are very fair (I never feel jipped when he leaves...in fact, I typically think that's it?). I highly recommend Ed for all of your electrical needs. You will be extremely pleased with his services and your wallet won't be empty:-)

AM&L did a great job on the electric wiring during my kitchen and bathroom renovations. They are a nice family owned company and clearly take pride in their work. Definitely would recommend them.

As I type this review, a crew from Alternating Currents is in the middle of a big job on my 1947-built brick ranch with plaster walls. They're updating our panel from 100 amp service to 200 (w/power surge protection), adding a dozen or so much-needed outlets throughout the house, putting ceiling lights in our living room, installing a new fancy exhaust fan with heater in a chilly basement bathroom, and creating the necessary additional circuits to distribute the power accordingly. Today is Day Three of this endeavor. The crew is taking great care to keep the cuts and dust to a minimum, but it's a messy project. The crew leaders have been listening and responding to our needs, advising us every step of the way. They're notifying us and getting approval before making any cuts into the walls and ceilings. While we've taken steps to move many belongings out to the garage, they are deftly working around our stuff. And they've been very patient with our overly-curious and somewhat protective mutt. Since the job is still in progress, I'll follow up with additional info. at later date.
