Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

I called Howard based on his excellent Yelp reviews.  He arrived on time at my house this morning and took care of my electrical issue.  The job turned out to be a bit more extensive than anticipated, yet his pricing was fair and I'm confident with his quality of work.  I am pleased to recommend Howard to other Yelp users..

They took on a project of my home that had been turned down by two other electricians due to the difficulty going around the existing construction. I got three estimates as recommended but two others backed off. North shore was not the most budget friendly choice but they were confident and willing to work on our old bungalow. I also used them for smaller work before like figuring why our basement lost power.  At that time their technician knew to check the exact outlet that had blown off and fixed the problem within 15 min. When i was impressed like an idiot he only chuckled and said he guessed based on experience and he was also lucky. :)

I love these people after they got us a new service line and a new distribution box. They are pleasant to work with.  They also brought their own handyman that made it possible to work in our home.  ComEd person just came out and did an inspection and was impressed how the work was done precisely.

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!

Norh is such a professional guy, he came for an estimate explained everything to us and then showed up for to the job on time, prepared, knowledge and with a great attitude!
We had a few outlets installed and a ceiling fan moved, he worked very throughly and took his time to do everything correctly and cleaned up after himself! He takes pride in his work which shows and his costumer service is wonderful.
That's how it should be all around 5 Stars!

Frank is an electrician that is reliable, resourceful and truly cares about his customers. As. Realtors, Frank is one of our preferred vendors which means we know that he will take care of our clients at any level of electrical need. We do not hesitate to refer Frank for any project. His knowledge of his business is a great asset and comfort. He does what is best for his clients, not his pockets. His rates are competitive and he goes above and beyond the call of duty. On a personal level, Frank has worked on several electrical projects for us in multiple homes and we are completely satisfied every time!

Scott has been our primary electrician for the past 3 years.  Whether it's installing receptacles so that we can have a mounted light in the bedrooms or installing various light fixtures, we've been very happy with Scott and his crew.  He is very considerate, knowledgeable and makes sure the job gets done correctly and timely.  If you need an electrician in Lake County, Scott's your guy!

We have a new go-to electrician. Mike is extremely responsive and detailed in his communications. He agreed to help install a new light switch for my elderly aunts. (It turns out, they are neighbors!) Unbeknownst to me, a caregiver fixed the light before Mike even got there for the appointment. Instead of being annoyed, he double-checked the work and made a change to make sure it was safe. He did not take any money from my aunts, and instead gave them a card and reassured them if they had questions or problems, they could call him. Kind, honest, conscientious and detail-oriented. Thank you, Mike!!

We had 3 outdoor GFCI that needed to be replaced. We compared quotes from multiple contractors. MJP sounds most reasonable as he agreed to a fixed rate. Once Marcin arrived, we found that one of GFCI outlet is actually having two outlets and that means total of 4. Marcin did not charge extra. In fact, he replaced GFCI covers for free. It felt like Santa gave us a visit a little too early this year. Thanks a lot for your help. We appreciate your help and your honesty and kindness.

Installed Generac generator.  Fair price, superb workmanship.  Orlando and George not only did a superb job, they are polite, and professional, and let us know what was happening each step of the process.  They left the job site clean and ready to go.

Highly recommend The Good Guys Handyman. Jamie came by to repair our outdoor vents and remove a bath mirror. He also provided us advice on some future work we were looking into. He was personable and did a great job with the work. He also double checked with us to make sure the repairs were what we expected. We will be using them for our future handyman needs. Thanks guys!

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 highly recommend Mr. Mighty. I called and they came out that same day - not because it was an emergency or priced as such - they came out because they could and so they did! And once here, Rick fixed my electricity and light hanging issues to my complete satisfaction...educating me along the way, too. These guys really know their stuff...and are courteous, friendly, accommodating, professional and reasonably priced. I will always call them when the needs arises.

Very sad to leave this review. My request was to 1) replace a lighting fixture in the bathroom 2) troubleshoot the exhaust fan 3) to put in a microwave outlet over the range in the kitchen. He quoted me $285 for the work.

I chatted with Brian on the phone and he was very personable, straight-forward, and seemed to know what the job entailed. He said he needed to make an initial appointment to assess what tools he would need (for which he wanted $100) and then another appointment would be made a few days later (for which he wanted $185).

He came for the initial appointment, and during the second appointment - he installed an outlet for the microwave by putting a wall outlet BELOW the cabinets in the kitchen. I was not there to supervise his work, and intuition tells me that the previous ones I've seen are INSIDE the cabinet. When I was sent the photo of his work, I thought that didn't seem correct, but I assumed that he was the professional and knew what he was doing.

After this second appointment, he asked me which light fixture in the bathroom needed to be changed and said he needed a ladder for the bathroom light fixture and had to make a third appointment to install it. He also said it would be an addition $75 for the exhaust fan. I'm not sure why these issues were not brought up after the first visit.

For the third appointment, we had scheduled him and when the day came, he said he had a different day on his calendar, which did not work for us, so we had to schedule another day. During this time, a contractor saw his electrical work and said the microwave outlet was WRONG. To verify I sent the photo of the microwave outlet to an appliance installer and he said it was extremely wrong and that any professional electrician should know that the outlet goes INSIDE the cabinet. The contractor quoted me $325 to fix Brian's work.

My husband called Brian to tell him to not come for the third appointment, since we felt like we no longer trusted his work. To his credit, he said he would come and fix the microwave outlet and rectify his mistake, but my husband and I told him we were concerned that he did it so wrong the first time. We didn't want him to do any further work. My husband requested a refund and said we would post a 1 star review if we were not refunded. Brian blamed the mistake on the fact that we were not there to supervise his work (my tenant / friend let him in). Brian said he did not appreciate the threat, was very short with my husband and hung up the phone on him.

This is not written to be vindictive or to cheat someone out of money. Far from it. The job was done incorrectly. He was not prepared to complete the job within two visits as first quoted. He did not clarify the appropriate questions after the first visit and wasted his time and ours by having to schedule a third appointment. He did not own his accountability in his mistake and was not willing to be an honest businessperson and refund a dissatisfied customer in a job that was done extremely wrong.

I hadn't previously googled over the range microwave outlet before hiring Brian. I didn't assume that hiring a professional would require me to Google and send the professional a diagram of exactly what to do, but I found zero images of microwave outlets that were what Brian did.

I wanted to work with Brian due to his positive reviews and positive record of work, but this was a very negative experience. I'm currently working with a number of contractors who do not have these issues of incomplete, wrong work, lack of preparedness, and lack of courteousness. It makes me very sad to write this review, but the fact is this job was handled very poorly.

I couldn't be happier with the service provided by this company. Tom was incredibly responsive and had his team on the job the same day I contacted them...a real blessing after all the problems I have had with my contractor. They did an exceptional job and were a joy to have in my home...even my cat loved them! They were professional, conscientious, knowledgeable, and highly skilled. I will definitely have them back and I would recommend them to anyone.
