Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Patch job was much easier than I had anticipated, so my 3-star rating was a bit low.

Wow, efficient and a fair price....okay, fair for the North shore. I've finally found my electrician.

Goran arrived on time, identified and addressed the issue while on site, and had the best rates of anyone we found in our service area. Two thumbs up!

Very friendly and knowledgeable. Norh quoted me for several projects, and ended up running a 220 outlet for my dryer across the house, and adding an outlet. He also helped me figure out a problem I had with some switched outlets. His pricing was really fair. If I need an electrician again, this is who I will call.

I had a relatively small job installing a 220 line at my place of business. Frank knew exactly what the various options were and spent a generous amount of time going over them with me, ever mindful of my budgeting.

I'm glad to have found a local independent contractor for future electrical services.

I'm electrified!  Hire Scott Nelson Electric if you want knowledgeable contractors who are polite and show up on time.

I hired Scott Nelson Electric (found by doing a web search) to install pendant lighting above a butler bar / island in my kitchen. There was no existing electrical there so, they needed to run electrical to existing switches and cut a hole for the electrical box.

I could not be happier with the work. Everything that was discussed while scheduling was what actually happened on site, nothing unexpected.

The cost was extremely reasonable, and the electricians that did the work were polite, knowledgeable, communicative, and had a sense of urgency about the project.  They even patched my ceiling, and well, too.

I would definitely hire Scott Nelson Electric again.

A Reliable Electrician

We had a long-standing problem with some puck lights. Michael Gordon from MPG Electric was the third electrician to look at these lights. He was the first one to look into every aspect of the situation. He found several technical problems with the original installation. Why the previous electricians missed the obvious, we'll never know. Michael fixed what he could with the spare parts we had lying around. Then he left with a list of replacement parts he would need to get the job done properly. A week or so later, he returned and put everything in order. For the first time, we have lights that work. I expect that they will continue to work for years in the future.

I was referred to Michael by Crest Lighting, a very reliable source. He is a properly licensed and insured electrician. He arrived on time, despite the difficult parking situation in Lincoln Park. When he finished, we were satisfied to the point that I gave Michael's business card to our property manager. We live in a 40 story high rise. A lot of us need electricians from time to time. I would recommend Michael Gordon to anyone who needs a reliable electrician

(On a personal note, I have to say that it really was a pleasure meeting this man. From the moment he walked through the door, we had a sense that things were going to go well. We were right.)

Punctual and professional. Got my quote over Google from him. He prices competitively and works efficiently. Great work! Will definitely be getting work done from him in the future!

Had too many estimates on a remodeling job in my basement everyone was giving me the run around and outrageous prices . I chose Penco because of the awesome reviews and I have to tell you they were awesome , on time , clean work , super job , great price . They wired my 20 new recessed lights and 13 outlets ,8 switches, plus new larger circuit breaker panel and cleaning up wiring by the panel that was bx and using conduit to clean up the area that was over 30 or 40 years of old wiring . Everyone didn't want to do the panel in my house because the pipe coming in from the meter needed to be moved over couple inches . Other companies were just coming in for an estimate and would not call back or they gave me a ridiculous price on purpose so I wouldn't call call them back not Penco they came in confident man unbelievable so happy  I chose them . I would give them 10 stars if I could . Definitely call them back for any job . Great communication nothing hidden everything up front .

These guys were great. Called them today and they came out at the end of their long busy day to fix an odd siding problem that sprang up. They were super communicative and did a nice job.  Will be calling them again.

Carlos did a great job changing the bathroom fan! Excellent job on the many past jobs too.

We made an appointment for an estimate and nobody showed up. I called and only received voicemail and nobody returned my calls. Based upon other more positive reviews, I was disappointed in the unprofessional treatment.

I have just had two fantastic experiences with Mr. mighty, specifically with Rick. On our first appointment he installed a new light fixture in my daughters room and changed the location of a light switch panel in our master. He did both jobs successfully and efficiently. He was on time, polite, clean, prepared, and communicative. He was also personable, chatting with my curious children and indulging my puppy with a belly rub. I loved the fact that there was a pricing guide for everything he did. No gray area when figuring out the cost of every step of the process.

The second visit was to install a new bathroom fixture and ceiling fan in the master. He discovered that the new fan I had just purchased had a faulty wire that wasn't connecting to the lighting element properly. After a bit of back and forth with the retailer I purchased the fan from, I was able to get the parts he needed to replace. And he came back when it was convenient for ME on the SAME day to install the parts and get my new fan up and running. Have you ever?!  Awesome.

Mr. Mighty and Rick, their rockstar electrician, define customer service and I will  continue to use them going forward with all of my electrical needs. I give them my highest recommendation.

Ken helped me with installing conduit in a high rise unit.  This required providing extra documentation regarding insurance and certifications.  It also meant working within the building's hours and elevator availability.  Ken came to the unit for an initial estimate, provided all of the documents beforehand, followed-up with a walk through on the day before work was to be done, and then personally came to the unit as the job was being completed.  The work was completed professionally and aesthetically.  The primary installer (Darrell) was pleasant, competent, and able to modify the plan as needed.  What I appreciated most is Ken's timely responses to questions and requests for information.  He ensured no question was left unanswered.  Dosie Electric will be a goto resource for future projects.

Very fair pricing and prompt, efficient service.  The owner, Tom Peck, is great to deal with.  He does a great job in a fast and efficient manner.
