Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

We bought a new dryer that was causing an electrical fuse to blow whenever we used it. I called PB Electrical Services and they came right away, diagnosed the issue as needing a new circuit breaker, and fixed it same day. Great service and I'll definitely use them for future electrical needs!

During a cold spell I lost power to my furnace so I called All Power Electric and they quickly responded.  One hour and a half later from the time I called. I'm enjoying a respite from the cold. Thank you Tony & All Power, I'm definitely saving your number in my contacts as good electricians are hard to find.

I scheduled Excel to come over and replace my doorbell transformer, change our two outdoor lights to motion detector lights, and replace a light fixture in backyard with the exact same brand and stock item because the rust had made it impossible to change the lights on the old one. The fellow arrived with a doorbell transformer that did not fit my description that I gave their office, so he got on the phone with his boss for 10 min, and he figured out the one he had would also work (it does seem to work although it's not the one I requested from Excel that ADT recommended for their Ring doorbell so I guess stay posted whether ADT thinks it's the right one when they come back out). Then, on to the front lights. I thought they were making the existing lights motion lights or even lights that go on at night (putting them on a timer). He gets on the phone again with his boss for 10 min and offers to go out to buy lights, but I like the look of my existing ones, and I don't want to pay for an electrician's time buying lights. I guess they thought I had bought new lights to install. So, we decide to forget that job. He, then, replaced the outside back light with same kind. Total for job? $390. Hmmm...seems a bit high to me. Transformer costs $10-25.00 so that was his only part. He was not here more than 90 min and some of that was phone time with boss. If he's confused about a job, I should not be paying for his time on the phone. I think about the time it took for the two items, and it should have been more like $200-total, not $400. I felt cheated which is too bad--first time this company came out, around 8 years ago, I thought they were amazing. I actually kept their contact information for 8 yrs....but not anymore.

I came in and I'm Hispanic he cussed at me and called me a Spic that he doesn't need my business and my money is no good here he also had a gun and has a threatening demeanor

Dion was awesome! We put recessed lighting throughout our whole house. It looked incredible. He did the work all in one day, just two days after giving us our quote (which was the best of the three electricians we had come give us quotes). I use him for both our home and business and he will be my electrician for years to come!

Perlongo Electric is exactly what his voicemail claims, your friendly neighborhood electrician. Frank is extremely friendly and upfront with the estimate. He installed 3 ceiling fans and four can lights in my house, and he finished right on time for exactly whet he bid the job for. He actually changed all my old two prong outlets into grounded prong outlets for no additional cost. He was very knowledgable and hard working. It must have been 100 degrees in my attic where he had to run wire for the lights, but he still finished on time. I have called him several time with questions about electrical work and if he can explain a fix for me to do he would, otherwise come and take a look. I was extremely happy with the work Frank did and I would highly recommend him to any friends or family of mine. You will not be disappointed.

Showed up the same day that I called. Very friendly and helpful. Knows his stuff. I would definitely call again.

I recently moved to the Evanston area. I was very unsure re: how to operate the Nes Pro thermostat that came with my condo unit. I had no clue how to use it to get my a/c working. I have never been good at operating basic mechanical equipment (let alone a device that appeared to me to be waaay out of my league). I am retired, have health issues for which a/c is needed.
I made Service Max aware of my issues. The technician and the office support staff went out of their way to help me. I insisted on having what appeared to me to be a tech saavy thermostat removed, and replaced.  He brought a few models for to me to consider. Gave great information that I could understand.  I selected the one that I felt confident in my ability to operate immediately upon installation. I slept soundly last night. Thanks Service Max. Oh, and he was here and gone in about 30-40 minutes.

Vlad was great. Took no short cuts, was never late for a job and was very competitive with his prices! He's now my go to electrician!

We hired a service from Angi's List to have a wall knocked down in our home.    Sooo we had to have some electricity rerouted. The electrician, they brought with them, completely bailed on us and left us with wires hanging and outlets exposed. With two boys and two dogs we had to find an electrician reliable and fast. We gave Johnny a call and he really came through for us. He  was friendly, reasonable, and just an over all a really cool guy. The electrical  work was neat and thorough. We will be using his services for our basemanent and any other future projects.

Our Generac whole house generator failed to come on during a multi-hour power outage on a Sunday morning. The Generac support line recommended AL Electric as the closest dealer. Andrey picked up the phone after two rings, came out within an hour, and had our generator running within 2 minutes. (The generator had an error code that required dealer service.) His charge for an emergency visit on a Sunday morning was very reasonable and he will be coming back later in the week to do full maintenance on the unit. As the Generac support person said, you need to have a dealer do maintenance on it yearly so AL Electric will be our regular service. Andrey is also very friendly and knowledgeable.

ABS was recommended by a residential lighting retailer.  I emailed them on a Saturday, and got a response the next day!  We scheduled an appointment for an estimate, then received a quote a few days later.  The ABS team came out promptly at the agreed upon time, and were extremely professional.  They installed a medium-sized chandelier in a vaulted foyer in about an hour.   Highly recommended!!  Bryan Rice and the ABS team will not disappoint.

It's been a couple of weeks since Tom brought me light, and I'd be remiss if I didn't formally thank him and Dawn.  I had reached out to three different providers, but InTown gave the most straighforward answers to my questions.  Not to mention, the hospitality Dawn provided over the phone...I'm all about patience and detail in customer service.
My appointment was set for early September, but I got a surprise call in mid-August offering a visit that day.   Great!  I hadn't had anyone in my home for many months (Covid fears), but Tom showed up in full protective gear.
Financially, I was prepared for the worst, but the final bill seemed like an illusion.  Wow.  Tom came in for one particular task, but listened to me, and provided so much more.  
I said my one disappointment was that he couldn't tune my piano.
So...pardon the essay...I just hadn't expected to be this grateful, and wanted to share my appreciation.
Again...thanks Tom and Dawn.

We needed an EV charger installed in our garage and Patterson Electrical Service was a great experience! Everyone on the project was very responsive and helpful. The work was done quickly and matched the estimate given. Overall, fantastic experience! Will definitely use them again for any future electrical projects we need done around the house.

Sal was great. We needed to install a 20amp outlet for a commercial treadmill in a room that only had 15amp outlets. Sal came out the next day and then returned the following day once he had all the necessary parts. Where else can you find a competent electrician who works the weekends and comes out on very short notice?  We recommend Sal for your electrical needs.

My condo/coop association recommended this company to me as they have done so much work in our old and very quirky building.  I have used them several times to install lighting, add electricity, etc etc.  I cannot overstate my admiration for them.  They are just excellent.  Very professional, very knowledgable, and very trustworthy.  I won't go to anyone else.

My wife and I have been talking about getting an EV car for the last few years when it came time to replace her car. As a result, I wanted to ensure we have a safe place to charge it. Therefore, we needed a Level 2 charger. I talked to some EV owners, and they all recommended a NEMA 14-50, 50 amp outlet installed in the garage.

Here comes Shock Tech 2. I used Yelp to ask him about a quote. He responded very quickly and asked for some information about the house. We talked about the location of the house, and he was able to give a quote based on the house and some pictures I sent regarding the panel, the path to the location, and the location itself. I liked this approach since I contacted other companies who, either, didn't respond or claimed they had no openings soon for a quote. I also liked how Shock Tech 2 kept in constant contact such as letting me know he is on the way. I've had companies in the past now show up at all after I took the time to take time off of work. From the start to finish, Jaime/Shock Tech was courteous, and professional.

On the day of installation, he was very professional. Got some cloth to protect the floor. He asked if our pets were allowed in the basement or not so he was kind to close the basement door behind him. There was no mess and he ensured everything was clean afterward. Not to mention, he found an issue with my electrical panel which he fixed too.

In the end, the quote was exactly what he asked. Compared to others, his quote was within the average price, but the quality was second to none. I had some quotes to add a bunch of, possibly, unnecessary wiring. His installation was simple and straight to the point. Also, he installed a breaker/emergency off switch next to the outlet, which was not mentioned in the other quotes. Therefore, his quote was actually more reasonable than others. My wife and I have other electrical plans for the house, and Shock Tech 2 will be getting all my business and recommendations to family/friends.

Don is a bit slow on the draw, and forgets to follow-up at times.  He is climbing up in his years, and I think should be about ready to retire, but despite his occasional forgettfulness, he is a great guy, down-to-earth, and knows his electrical buisness.  He is fair and guarantees his work.  I highly recommend Don Carmen Electric

Called this guy out of a recommendation, had horrible experience talking to him, very rude and disrespectful! Stay away !!
