Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

Spencer and Angel arrived on time, were professional, courteous, and took the time explain what they were doing. We had a light, three switches, and an outlet replaced and, like any old home, nothing was simple. They were able to make the necessary adjustments so everything fit and works. I recommend them.

Mike and his crew ALWAYS do an outstanding job.  I would recommend them anytime.

With Duplex it's like having a family member helping you. These two brothers are seasoned electricians who work fast, do great work and clean up everything before they leave. Very friendly and outgoing guys who I trust entirely to be in my home. Especially if you have an older home these guys have the experience and skills to solve any electrical problem.

Art did a great job installing my new ceiling fan. He is extremely knowledgeable and I would highly recommend!

The only thing shocking about this electrical repair company is how good they are! Would highly recommend them. Since I was selling my house, I needed a small job done right away. They were able to squeeze me into their tight schedule on short notice. Mike, the electrician, showed up on time. He did the work in a timely manner, exactly as quoted at an extremely fair price. Mike was super nice and explained everything he was doing. Too bad I can't take them to Kansas City with me when I move!

Prolite Electric has been great to work with. Very fast and thorough communication from Jack. I love when appointments are confirmed!  Matt arrived right on time and was a pleasure to work with. I had a list of minor electrical fixes around our house. He took care of everything and made recommendations for anything that could not be fixed the day of.  Pricing matched the quote that I was provided. I would highly recommend the Prolite Electric team!

I requested a service visit at 9pm to check on my furnace turning off intermittently. They responded immediately and called the following morning to confirm a noon appointment time. They came, inspected my furnace and said everything looked fine at the moment but to call them as soon as it shut off again. They did all this at no charge. I really appreciate the great customer service and quick response time!

Jeff came out to give a quote for some electrical work in my two bathrooms.  It was pretty simple stuff: four can lights on dimmer switches, low voltage LED lights, and a bathroom exhaust fan.  I was totally unimpressed by Jeff's knowledge as I was having to tell him how to do things (you'll need to cut this 2x4 and put in a 4 slot electrical box, you'll need to run a whip here and run a box here....).  Basically I had zero confidence that Jeff knew what he was doing.  Jeff also said he would send me a quote and he never got back to me.

Pros
--Jeff was very friendly and flexible considering I showed up 15 minutes late to meet him for the quote

Cons
--I was not confident that Jeff knew what he was doing
--Where was the follow up??

I was able to get another company out to my house (Next Level Electrical) yesterday and was able to pin point the issue within 15 minutes of looking around the house and not just at the box. Turns out it all had to do with some faulty wiring and connections near the circuit box.

Had some smart switches that needed to be installed that were a bit above my (admittedly minimal) expertise. David responded with a very reasonable quote right away - and showed up on time when he said he was going to a couple days later. He was professional and courteous - I would highly recommend for any household electrical needs!

We called Matt to replace a ceiling light fixture in our bathroom that had broken. He tried to repair it first, but ultimately had to replace it. He was very nice, very professional, and knew what he was doing. Cost was as quoted. Thanks Matt!

Very professional and knowledgeable tech.    After getting a couple quotes from different companies I decided to change the electric panel and  install the ev charger with Electric Castle . Mike and Bogdan explained the process and the steps they have to do in order to get the job done. Very careful around the house, clean and outstanding job overall
Totally recommend

Had a great experience with Randal Electric. I'm selling my condos in Chicago and some very minor electrical work popped up on the home inspection report. I called a few different electricians on Yelp in the area and a lot hung up on me because my request was too small for them to set an appointment. I communicated with Randy what I needed to be done and he was confident that it would be a quick and easy fix, plus he'd be able to put me down for an appointment the next morning. Eddie was my electrician who was right on time this morning. He was polite and professional and after he was finished with the breaker he even asked if he could review the home inspection report to make sure everything needing an electricians attention was covered. I appreciate honest businesses in home services. While searching for electricians I ran across CR Electric and they tried to upsell me on an entire new panel a 4-6 hour job that would have been unnecessary and over the top. Eddie was able to make the breaker safe and eliminate the double tap breaker installed by a 10+ year old alarm system company that I never used in 7 years of owning the property. I'm glad I called Randal Electric and if I need electricians for the next 4 condos about to go on the market I know who I'll be calling!

They were fantastic from start to finish. Professional demeanor, communicated with us very well throughout. They initially quoted us on the job based on my explanation and a picture but then we soon realized after they got to the job this would not work because of a brick pillar that would have been very difficult to fish wire through. They assessed the situation and gave me different options and were very fair on the price.  Cleaned up afterwards and were willing to answer all of my questions.  Thanks again to Edwin and Brian. I will definitely use them again in the future.

We really appreciated his knowledge and recommendation to first check with Commonwealth Edison first. He didn't charge anything to assess what work.mau be needed. We will definitely recommend him to our friends.

Had a small plumbing job which didn't go well and fired them on the spot.  The owner refused to come over and inspect so sent him pictures. Handico demanded full payment in spite of admitting that it was not up to standards.  i advised would pay for materials but not labor as job not properly done.  Owner demanded full payment and would not return my calls. Handico sent to collections.  Watch out for these guys.  Not tradesman quality work

Can't say enough good things about these guys, they were always honest, did the job quickly, they were on time and most importantly professional.  Thank you again for fixing our garage.

This place was a dream to work with. They're fast, affordable and skillful.
I'd recommend them to friends and family but unfortunately I'm too afraid to
do business with them again.

They came out for an emergency repair after an electrical fire in my home.
The problem was resolved in a matter of a few hours and I paid the electrician
but the complications that had followed lasted for a few months.
Unfortunately, they did not include the price of a permit nor had they updated
their permits that allow them to do work in the town of Cicero when they had done their work.
Their permits had expired roughly two days before they took my service call
resulting in fines from the town of Cicero requiring them to update their permits.
I was even told by this company that they didn't bother to update their permits because they don't get much work in Cicero. I absolutely understand that and wholeheartedly agree but if that was the case, they should not have taken my service call. Regardless, if it was an emergency or not.

Subsequently, they in turn sent me a bill, with a very condescending letter,
stating I was to pay for THEIR business permits for the minor job they had
so graciously done for me.

It was a very insulting letter with an air of condescension but nonetheless
it was something that needed to be resolved and their receptionist was extremely
courteous in helping me resolve this issue.

I stood firm in my decision not to pay for their business permit. My name is not
on the front door, I do advertise to be an electrician myself, so therefore, it is not
my nor anyone's responsibility to pay for a business permit for a business I do not own. If your permits needed to be paid, you should have included that in your pricing regardless of how big or small the job.

They knew this. They stopped asking me to pay for their bills.

They also have a sister company called Diamond Home Services.
If you do work with A to Z Electric, your phone number will be placed on Diamond
Home Service's calling list.

I would absolutely do business with both of these companies again if it
weren't for their condescending letter and their audacity to try and stick me
with a bill to update their business permits. I'm just afraid that if I were to call
them up for business, I'd be given an unreasonable estimate or receive
unsatisfactory work.

Angel, did a great job.. Was polite, explain work and pricing.. I will definitely use his sevices again...

I had several small jobs that needed done; patching drywall, painting, caulking shower and windows. Andrew worked quickly and did excellent work.
