Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Outstanding service and a truly reputable guy! My family is relatively new to Evanston and needed some outdoor porch lighting. During my online search I noticed Howard Simons Electrical and the good words people were saying. Following my experience with Howard I have to agree with them. Howard knows his trade and offered suggestions throughout. The final product (lighting above my back door and flood lights into the yard) was fantastic. He came out to view the project, then we set a date for the job in which he arrived on time and finished on time. The details were handled quite well and his price was very reasonable. If you're looking for some electrical work, Howard is your guy. I highly recommend him!

North Shore Electric is truly first-rate.  They just completed our second project with them which was removing a track light and installing six recessed lights that have changed the room ambiance.  Brian, the owner had worked out the plan, made suggestions, and offered suggestions.  While they were backlogged with business,  he did suggest a way of getting the work done earlier than originally proposed.  The site electrician, Bill, was fantastic.  This friendly and informative dude worked non-stop enabling the job to be completed in one day and totally cleaned up.  Bill recognized that he had done our living room installations a couple of years earlier.  This company is tops and pricing is very reasonable.  It was nice to get an invoice that detailed every cost and not just a blanket final price.  Recommend them without reservation.

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!

I am a 1st time building owner .. I don't know any electricians so I looked on yelp.. I came across great reviews for Norh at Small Tyme Electric.. I had a serious electrical problem at the building where the live wires from the building were hanging extremely low but Comed refused to fix the problem .. I called NOrh and he was able to come out the very next day on my schedule even thought it was raining! I hung out with Norh the whole time he worked... It turns out whoever did electrical work to building did not support the electrical correctly to the wall causing the wires to slip and hang .. Norh was a very pleasant person to talk to and he completed the job in a sufficient amount of time ! I will be using Norh for all my future electrical needs :)

Adrian Electrical Contractors responded promptly.  I contacted them after an electrical issue late in the evening.  Someone answered and found an electrician who could come out and help within an hour.  Our problem was fixed in no time.  Our contractor, John, was courteous and the price was just right!  Thanks again Adrian Electrical Contractors!  I will definitely use them again if a need arises!

Great communication on repairing a broken lamppost fixture. Helped us find the exact replacement, ordered it, and installed it. Top notch. Thank you!

Mike Gordon of MPG Electric did an outstanding job replacing under cabinet lighting as well as hanging a fixture that I hesitated to buy due to review after review saying how hard it was for their person to hang. I liked the looks of it and decided to take the chance despite the reviews. He had absolutely no trouble because he really knows what he is doing. In addition, he generously offers his time to answer questions as well as help with purchasing. His patience is extraordinary.

Our previous electrician left us with dimmers that didn't work for years. Mike knew exactly what to use and they work fine for the first time since we lived in this home. He is honest and charges fairly. We intended to add a dimmer to our kitchen fixture but then we weren't sure if it was needed. He was fine with letting us check it out at night, where we could judge better, and get back to him. He offered to come back and not charge the initial first hour charge or return it depending on our decision. He really cares about his customers! We highly recommend him!

Great service, fast, and professional. I had a minor repair for some switches and reached out to a few electricians via phone and Yelp quote messaging. MJP responded the fastest and had a reasonable quote, providing me with available slots. He messaged me when enroute. Marcin arrived on time, evaluated the problem (asking a few questions), and was able to repair quickly. My job was simple and would use MJP again.

Justin was our main contact for a complete re-wire and fixture installation, new fuses/circuits for a two flat in the city. He gave us a wonderful deal and provided us with the work we asked for and more! I wouldn't go to anyone else -- even though their specialty is in generators.

Penco did everything we requested and came out in a timely manner and blocked us for a week on their time schedule.
They are prompt, clean, and effective as a team. Usually arriving from 8-8:30am until 3-4pm.

Edgar was our main worker (came in and out most of the hours and work) and he did a fabulous job in keeping us posted and informed about what they were doing and when. He really works for this company and if I could give him 10 stars, I would.

If you ever decide to get electrical work done, just clear a path for them to work, be cool people and move your personal items away so they can do their job.

Obviously cutting holes in walls and directing and re-directing outlets is a must when and where you want them to be - so as clientele- be prepared for that.

Even if you didn't want walls cuts, they really do their best to be minimally invasive because we have three newly painted and redecorated rooms, and they really respected the boundaries of our newly constructed area.

Other than that we told them to have at it.

AND.... Yes, they do pick up after themselves when they're done, I even offered to do it myself to help them keep going or leave early for their day but they truly insisted on leaving things the way they were when they came in.

Another few guys that came in were
Connor (sp) and Tony - very helpful and friendly group of guys - very knowledgeable and efficient. (Came in 2-3 days out of the 5)

There was someone else that was like an apprentice - I believe Brian - a young guy fresh out of school type kid - he was like Edgar's sidekick - wasn't here the last day
but if I had any say in his future employment, I'd say, teach him and keep him - definitely shows a lot of potential for this company.

If we ever needed another group of guys, or would recommend them to someone - Choose Penco!

We hired Chris to remove some shelves and rebuild them to hold our extensive album collection.  They did a terrific job.  I would have given them 5 stars, but they weren't able to haul away the old shelving so we have to hire someone else to do that for us.

I had Caval Electric do some work for me today and I was really glad I did.  Carlos showed up early, which is always a plus in my book.  I did something really stupid with my hard-wired smoke detector and lost power to part of my apartment.  However, it turned out that really wasn't the source of the problem:  when I was monkeying with the fuses in my old-fashioned fuse box after the incident, I removed one where the socket was defective. I couldn't put the fuse back in properly and thus the power loss.

Carlos discovered the problem in my fuse box, crafted a solution to it, and reconnected my smoke detector.  He was friendly, polite, and quick, but he took the time to explain to me what the problem was and made sure I understood how to replace the battery in my smoke detector and reattach it to the ceiling.  To top it off the price was very reasonable.  I will be calling Caval the next time I need an electrician.

We called for an electrical short that kept setting off the circuit breaker. After 4 days of dealing with another company that had a different story everyday. We called Sam and he solved our problem in a couple of hours for a reasonable price.
He knows his electricity very well.
I would recommend him for any electrical work needed.
He is now our go to guy.
Thank you very much
The Gonzalez family

Job done, but expensive
We had some flickering lights at all hours of the day, so we called mr. mighty.
They got someone out here quickly, which was nice.  
The first day it cost 369 bucks to come out and inspect our panel and the service disconnects and the meter box - about 45 minutes or so.
We scheduled saturday to replace the disconnects for the two units. He didn't show up and called an hour afterwards apologizing.  Re-scheduled for later the next week.  and he replaced them - 550 dollars.
He noticed the voltage wasn't right, so he called comed because he thought there was a problem with the incoming neutral.  Comed came out and said the busbars in the meter box needed to be replaced.  Our appliances were starting to fail because of the bad neutral, so i called them back and said come take care of it.  842 dollars.

The job was completed, but I wish he had acted on the meter box that first day after seeing such corrosion. Probably could have saved 550 bucks

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.

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.
