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'm very lucky to live close to Excel, as I'm very impressed with their professionalism and quality of work.  Rates are reasonable, particularly given their guarantee (10yr on work, 5yr on materials).  Response time was 90 minutes to return initial message, 1 HR for technician to arrive, and the issue was troubleshot and resolved onsite within an hour.  Thank you Israel (electrician) and Omar (manager)!

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.

Dion did a fantastic job installing two ceiling fans at my house! He had to enter the attic and cut some holes, but he did it all with a minimum of mess and disruption. His price was very fair and quoted in advance, and the whole job was done quickly. He also gave some great advice and helped me make sure the solutions worked for my family. I will definitely use his services again next time I need an electrician, and I highly recommend him.

Frank Perlongo did a lot of electric work in my old Berwyn bungalow.  He's very reasonable and does top quality work. He's a perfectionist!  I will always call him for any job, big or small. I highly recommend him.  He had to re-do my ceiling fans and other electric that was done incorrectly. He really knows his stuff!

After reading some great reviews I had high hopes for John and his troubleshooting. Unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired. After calling John on the phone we made an appointment for him to meet me at my home on a Tuesday evening (which he never showed up to). Thinking that maybe I had understood incorrectly I called John and asked if I was mistaken. He proceeded to state that he thought we had scheduled for the following date. I gave John the benefit of the doubt and rescheduled for the following day at 6 pm. At 7 pm that day he texted to say he was coming from across the city and was on his way. When he did arrive he proceeded to offer zero solutions to my electrical questions and jetted out of the house having complained that he had just spent 2 hours in traffic which is irrelevant when you are a business owner who seeks business throughout the city of Chicago which does span across quite a distance. I rarely rate people so poorly, but this time around I felt compelled to do so based on the fact that he pretty much wasted our time to two days straight.

We moved to the area 3 years ago and when the first issue with our furnace came up, I googled and found Malek Heating and Cooling. I called and they came out the next day to fix it. We have had nothing but trouble with our system in the three years, last week the furnace started leaking again and we found out, there was a bigger problem. Mike suggested replacing the system (it was 20+ yrs old), a week later the new system was installed and it is amazing (the crew was very polite and clean). Mike and his crew is very knowledgeable and polite. No matter what problem comes up, they are here the same day or next to fix it. No matter what questions I have, I get them answered. I can only recommend Malek Heating and Cooling, they are fantastic! Thanks for the great service!

Called on a Friday afternoon and they showed up a couple hours later. They corrected violations caught by a house inspector. Price was very fair. Would definitely use again and recommend to others.

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.

In Town remains 5 star all the way.  I've since had them come do additional relatively small jobs, all excellent.  Even better, they stand behind their work no matter what (I'm NOT meaning to imply they did poor work, sometimes things just fail).  This is something you don't see every day anymore, but greatly appreciated as a customer.  All this combined will keep me a LOYAL customer for all my electrical work.  Thanks again, In Town.

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

Sal was great.  He came the day we called, worked for a very reasonable price, was punctual, and was funny, to boot.

Steve came to our condominium to install an outlet in the laundry room and a pair of ceiling fixtures in the dining room. Steve worked diligently first installing the outlet. Steve ran wire through a narrow wall placing the outlet in a better place than I imagined was possible. Then working overhead he drilled into our hard concrete ceiling. He measured and exactly placed two pendent lights.  This install was done correctly and no touch up painting was required. Thank you to everyone at Corrigan & Freres. We appreciate Steve's attention to detail.

Called Jamie in the morning to come out to fix a GFCI receptacle. He made a special trip at the end of his day to get it done. He was very accommodating, courteous and professional. The job was done well and he was very clean and tidy. And he charged a very reasonable rate.
I would highly recommend Jamie and Shock Tech 2 for electric repairs. In fact, they are now our go to electrician.

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

The pricing is confusing. I was charged an $89 fee to show up which I understood as what would typically be the diagnostic fee and then $125/hr. The guy was here for 20 min, could not actually do the repair, and needed to go do research to see if the parts were available to do the work and I am left with a $214 bill. As an architect who works with construction people on a daily bases, this is not how I have ever seen someone do business. I would say to make sure that they have the capability to do the job and get everything in writing beforehand.
