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!

I own a construction company and we have been working with All Power Electric since 2016, is a truly family owned business, Tony is very professional and know what he's doing! Grace ( his daughter) running the day by day operation doing a great job! This company is great to work with! I  would highly recommend them to anyone.

Unprofessional. High prices. Replaced one switch and was supposed to come back for the second part of the job. However they never showed up when they said they would. We hired another electrician who did an awesome job for 1/2 the price!!  Then we were hounded months later for payment for the first part of the job. In my opinion since we lost a day of work waiting with no call there should have been a discount or something for inconveniencing us.  Instead we received multiple calls for payment. Good riddance!

Exceptional family-owned business.  Uriel and his father do a great job.  Professional and efficient.  We needed our wiring evaluated in a section of our industrial facility. What we thought would be a complicated job was evaluated, repaired, and replacement parts installed in under an hour.  Reasonable rates too.  Highly recommend.  Montoya is now our go-to electrician service.

Best electricians I've worked with, hands down. They did great work, promptly, and with care for design and space. Not only were they best bid I'd received, but they did the work in half the time that anybody else had said would be needed.

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.

John's customer service is absolutely stellar. I was having trouble with a couple of light switches and asked him if he had thoughts on how to fix them. He gave me a couple of ideas to fix it. I tried it out, and it worked! He successfully troubleshooted my electrical issues via phone, and that's what I was looking for. Yay! Thanks so much, John!

I have a new condo with dual HVAC systems so I joined the ServiceMax service because it was a great deal. A technician came by to check out each one and did a very good job. Cleaned the reusable filter and cleaned the lines. Two weeks later I had a problem with one of the thermostats and called ServiceMax in to check it out. They were able to send a technician in within a few hours and he found the problem right away. First, I was shocked that I could see a technician on the same day. Jenny got that done. If you need a very good HVAC service I highly recommend ServiceMax. Thank you Jenny and Mike for helping me out that day. I'm a ServiceMax client forever.

I'm really not understanding why my experience was a complete 180 from other reviewers, but calling it a nightmare would be a supreme understatement.

I needed a dedicated outlet for the sump pump in the crawlspace because you cannot use an extension cord for it in my town. I called Vlad, believing I had called him before and he never got back to me (this was my error). He was very polite and came immediately to look at the work needing to be done. So far, so good! He quoted me a very fair price and said he could do the job the same day - even better! I made sure I said that the sump pump needed to be plugged directly into an outlet. He said he needed to go to the hardware store to pick up what he needed, after 2 hours I called him to make sure he was coming back. He replied yes, he would be here shortly.

And this is where my nightmare began.

A couple hours later, I notice that it had gotten very warm in my house. AC is usually set at 72 and when I checked the thermostat, it read 80. I politely asked Vlad if he did something to the AC, and his reply was too many wires and went back to what he was doing. That really wasn't an answer but I went back in the house and turned some fans on, sure that he would fix whatever he did to cause the AC not to work.

As the hours progressed (he started work at about noon). the AC still wasn't working and the WiFi thermostat was turning off and on and re-setting every few minutes. He was messing with the breaker box for a REALLY long time and would NOT answer my questions but rather just shrugging his shoulders and ignoring me. You have no idea how frustrating that was.

At about 6:30 (still no AC, mind you), he comes into the house and asks me for an extension cord. I ask him what for. He replies that he needs one to plug the sump pump into the outlet. Excuse me, what??? The whole reason I needed a contractor was because I needed the sump pump to plug directly into an outlet! He tells me that he thought it was better to put the outlet close to the crawlspace door and that's why he needed an extension cord, because the outlet was too far away from the sump pump cord. I tell him that he did not do the job correctly and that I needed the outlet close enough to the sump pump so that the cord could be plugged directly into it AND he still needed to address my AC not working.

He insisted that he did nothing to the AC wiring and that it must be an issue with the AC or the thermostat. Both are fairly new and it was highly unlikely that it was not his fault. He insisted that I needed to call an AC person to come look at what the problem could be and repeatedly insisted that he did nothing wrong.

At 7:30 he comes back into the house and simply says, Money, give me money. My husband came home from work at this point and told Vlad that he must have done something wrong, crossed a wire, something, because there was no way this was not his fault. We wrote him a check for less than what we agreed on, because come on! He got a bit ugly at that but finally left.

We had no choice but to call the AC company that services our furnace/AC. That was a $155 service call. While we were waiting for them to show, I went to do a load of laundry only to find that there was no power running to the washer and dryer. My husband went to the breaker box and found that the washer and dryer were now connected to the furnace breaker, so YES ABSOLUTELY he caused the problem because the washer and dryer were previously on their own (correct) breaker.

So, the AC company could not help because it was not an HVAC issue, and I then had to find an emergency electrical company that had a $195 service call fee. No way in hell did I trust Vlad to come back and fix what he messed up. Although the electrical company came Saturday morning, the repair was so extensive (and required an HVAC tech along), the repair could not be done until Monday. We spent 72 hours without AC.

Attached you will see the invoices, showing that yes, it was very much Vlad's fault. We have had to pay over $1300 to fix what he did.

Installing a new outlet on a dedicated circuit breaker is basically Electrician 101.

In addition to this review, I will be filing a complaint with the BBB and seriously considering pursuing legal action - something I have never done in all my many years of being a consumer/customer.

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.

I highly recommend ABS Electric. They did a fantastic job during a home remodel. Installed a new electric panel, canned lighting, recessed led lighting, new wiring and more. They exceeded my expectations, kept all their timing commitments and truly stand behind their work!!!

We recently hired Nick to install recessed lighting throughout our home. We were so pleased with his work that we expanded the scope of our project and had him also install chandeliers, tv's, ceiling fans, light timers, outdoor lighting, etc.  Nick's work helped transform our dated house to the home we always wanted.  Nick is extremely skilled but also polite, punctual and eager to please nit-picky homeowners like myself.  Nick, thank you again for your high quality work -- we look forward to working with you again soon!

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.

Had great experience with Sal Messinger from Sonar.  He came over to install electrical power to a new tankless water heater for a very reasonable price, and ended up taking care of two other jobs I thought were going to haunt me for weeks.

Sal works fast (came over 1 hour after I called), provides helpful explanations of what he's doing, and his prices seem very fair.  Highly recommended.

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.

I reached out to this company to update my electrical panel. The owner diagnosed my issue virtually and came out the next day to service the panel. He went out of his way to accommodate my schedule. He explained the issues in detail, in a way that I could understand, and did a great job. I will call upon this company in the future for all of my electrical needs.

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

Had my faucet fixed recently by them & was very satisfied. They're polite,  efficient, skillful, & knowledgeable handymen. 10/10 recommend!
