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!

Don't not use this electrician.  Dishonest and lied about services.  Total scam artists.  I first called and they said they would charge $49 for travel fee and troubleshooting.   When the electrician came,  he didn't come and even look at the circuit board.  No trouble shooting done.  Instead he came there to just say he  will charge $300 for any kind of service he will do (different from my phone conversation )-  why didn't you reveal all this during our phone conversation?  Repeat DO NOT USE THIS ELECTRICIAN!  

The electrician was very unprofessional and was arguing what  happen if it's a complicated job,  it's $300!  I said , what happen if it's an EASY job,  and it's $300?!!!   As mentioned,  when I talk to the lady over the phone,  they said they charge differently for different services.   However ,  this cheating electrician want to charge over $300 for not even taking a look at the circuit board.  Very dishonest, rude, and not upfront with their pricing .  DO NOT USE.

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 recently bought a new home and needed to re-wire some of the work done by the last owner as well as install some outdoor lighting. They were informative, professional, and fairly priced. They gave me a complimentary inspection in light of the issues they noticed. It worked out in the end and I'm very satisfied.

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.

Can't recommend John enough- he's amazing. First off, I called few other electricians for my job and John was the first to get back to me to schedule. He was right on time, super friendly, and very efficient. We actually had bought dimmers and ruined them unknowingly and John had spares in his car that were the same brand and half the price. He did work on the two dimmers and we added another job. Great price- great service. If you're looking for a great electrician who knows his stuff and has integrity, John is your guy!

My a/c stopped working during a very hot Chicago weekend.  Mike with Malek Cooling came out quickly and saved the day.  I originally contacted another company that I had found in the yellow pages.  They misdiagnosed my problem and the system still wasn't cooling.  I spoke with Mike, and after he checked everything out, was able to fix it right away.  He is very professional and extremely pleasant to work with. My condominium association president was so impressed with his work, she plans on using Malek for our all of our building's heating and cooling needs. Highly recommended.

I was in the electrical distribution business for  over 14 years and I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to companies professionalism and quality work. I called Father and Son Electrical late in the afternoon and they were able to come out within a couple of hours and fix our issue. I highly recommend using this company for all your electrical needs!  I was blown away by them!

My new home was in need of a ton of new lighting and electrical work. When Jonathan came out to give his estimate, I knew he was the right guy for the job for many reasons. He was communicative, thorough, and very knowledgeable. I had a pretty clear vision for what I wanted, so he listened and made sure he understood every detail to get the project done right. There were also a few areas where I was uncertain and he provided me with some really awesome options that ended turning out even better than I could have imagined. Jonathan is a real pro and he will definitely be my go-to for any electrical needs.

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.

Our Condo building uses ABS Electric for our common area electrical repairs and equipment replacement.  Have not had a job they could not do.
My wife and I had used them in the past in our condo unit for a chandelier move and adding a couple of dimmer switches.  All went well.
Today we used them to add two ceiling can lights with dimmer switches and rough out a wall in our bedroom so we could add an electric fireplace.  More work then I imagined but they tackled the job of moving conduit pipes that where there, adding a junction box and another  two outlets. Brian and Jason were on time, worked hard, did a couple of great installations and left the area neat and clean.I thought the price was fair. I feel comfortable recommending ABS Electric to my condo neighbors.

They were able to send someone out for a very small job within a couple of days of my contacting them. The labor cost was reasonable and the electrician was very professional.

The work was done well and efficiently The workers were courteous and neat . Overall , good , but pricey .

Sal was more than amazing! Called him today & explained power went out in half of my apt & he showed up in 20 min! And fixed within the hour! Showed up with another wonderful gentleman Danny. They immediately found the issue but needed to locate the source of the bad wires. Sal was so thorough & clearly well experienced as he walked me through every step explaining to me what went wrong & why. After testing multiple switches eventually found it was located where the ceiling fan was. He carefully took down (which was no easy task) & replaced bad wires. He even cleaned my dusty fan blades before putting back! Really made me feel so comfortable & kinda like family. As they even gave me advice on my plumbing. Oh did I mention so affordable! He could've charged me way more & honestly I would've happily paid! He even sent me a nice text saying it was HIS pleasure to help me! I'd give more stars if I could. And even opened a Yelp account just so I could write this review. I'd recommend Sal to anyone!

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.

Nice guy. Very knowledgeable and responsive. Would definitely use again and highly recommend.

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!
