Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

So professional!  So affordable!   Patrick Electric took my job very seriously,  even though it was a small job of the installation of 3 can lights.  They went out of their way to do the necessary research, asked questions to make sure the job was done satisfactory.
The rep that did the actual job was very respectful!  He was promptly on time.. He explained the process and gave me status checks as the worked progressed.    They were extremely clean!  They put tarps down and cleaned up the work space before they left.  They did a wonderful job!!!  I would recommend them, and I personally will use them again!!!

Wally, the owner of upgrade electric is one of the rare, reputable, reliable and decent electricians out there. Okay, maybe I'm being too hard on the industry, but it's hard to find honest and reliable plumbers, electricians, & contractors, IMHO, and Wally and Upgrade Electric are definitely a rare good option. We've worked with them on two houses we've owned in the last 10 years and Wally has done work for my in-laws prior to that - and it's always been good work.

John rewired my entire house earlier this year and was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He did a great job updating my 1914 home, helped me problem solve throughout the process, was accommodating of some twists and turns in the project, and is just a good guy in general. I was happy to have chosen him from the several electricians I had bid on the job.

We needed to have a 52-inch fan installed on a 17-foot ceiling.  I called 5 electricians that had been recommended by the place from where we purchased the fan (Menards). Three of the 5 quoted prices $400 and up.  One wouldn't take the job because he didn't have ladders tall enough.  But Jeff Schimanski charged significantly less than the others. He took the old fan down and installed the new one, and he did a great job.  I highly recommend Jeff!

He was a great electrician! He is no longer in business but I sure wish he were. I miss this business!

When I bought my condo, all of the light fixtures were the original.  I contacted BUE via Facebook and worked with Mo.  He came out to my place the next day and replaced both bathroom light fixtures as well as a chandelier in the dining area.   He was so great to deal with - very professional and friendly.  The price was great, but the service was exceptional.  He worked with my schedule and came after 6pm to do this work.  

I need some pendants hung in my kitchen and I will be hiring BUE.  I can't recommend enough!

Awesome!   I did my research...   We had several electrical issues, they took care of everything..  Reasonable rates,  professional, courteous..  I would use them again for sure..  Highly recommend....   Julie

So this is going to be a review that I've been wanting to do for a while now but with just moving into a new place and the holidays, it's been a bit crazy.

Guess what, finally got time to do this!

What can I say, I guess what isn't there to say about Alex and his crew at Swanson's Home Preservation?  I had Alex and his team conduct a couple different projects for me.

The main one was for my Kitchen, to install a range hood, running a new duct for the range hood to outside, fixing up the ceiling in the kitchen and doing a completely new backsplash for the whole entire kitchen because the family and I thought what the old owners had was a bit oldschool and not of our taste.

For this first project Alex and his team did stuff that not many other contractors I worked with in the past would do. I reached out to another guy that came and he said he wouldn't be able to do it because it would be way too long of a project for him if the proper duct work wasn't already intact (like wtf really, what kind of contractor does that), Alex wasn't like that though. Alex, his uncle and the rest of team knew new duct work was going to have to be done otherwise the 1200cfm range hood I bought was going to be cut down in cfms big time.  On top of that during the install there was a part of the roof/ceiling that took a lot of work for the duct to go through where they had to cut through it and it took time! For most people I guarantee they would of got mad, gave up or do a mediocre job. Not Alex and his team. They took time and at the end came out with a fantastic result. I have an awesome range hood and phenomenal backsplash in the kitchen now.

Lol it's almost done I promise I have to include this 2nd project.

The 2nd project I had Alex and his team do was install a projector, automated projector screen, run the cabling through my drop ceiling and run new electrical outlets for the projector and automated projector screen to have places to be plugged in.  Again phenomenal job, the projector and projector screen looks amazing in my new Basement/Mancave. Everything works flawlessly, the cables are hidden/well managed (other than the power cord and hdmi coming out of the projector no way hiding that buddies) and overall just made me happy. During my New Years Eve Party/House warming party, people loved it!!!

I'll include pictures of the before of my Kitchen, after the new backsplash install/range hood and pictures of the sick setup Alex did of the projector and projector screen in my basement.

Oh yea also had Alex do some other really small projects like setup new electrical outlets outside where there wasn't any so my family could put up the Christmas lights.

What can't this man and his team do!!!!

10/5 all day!!! They're licensed, insured, highly reliable and have amazing prices. You won't be disappointed and I highly recommend giving Alex a shout for any future projects you need done.

Man Yelp, did you guys miss me? Lol guess I had to come back (again) with a bang and with a big review this time but definitely well deserved for Swanson's Home Preservation.

Keep it up Alex and Swanson's Home Preservation team!

This company is terrific - I've had them out for big and small jobs, they are responsive, efficient, and reasonably priced.

I got Mr Dragovic's  company name and number along with a few other referrals  from Menards. I'm  ery glad I picked him.

A small metal ruler accidentally fell onto  the power strip surge protector just as I was unplugging my cell charger in the wee hours of the morning. Sparks flew out of the surge protector and the metal ruler melted in 2 places. The surge protector had burn marks too.

I was thankful I wasnt injured. My power went off everywhere. I was really scared and the next day had a neighbor fiddle around with the circuit breaker. They couldn't figure it out.
I had no idea what was damaged or how bad the problem was going to be. I was worried about the state of my expensive TV and my electric recliner chair...

Mr. Dragovic answered my phone call right away. He actual tried to help me over the phone to see if I could fix my own circuit breaker problem and to save me the cost of the service call.
Some people I think may not have tried to help me on the phone.
I was so upset and worried  at that moment  I just wanted him to come over.  

He made it to my place in less than 30 minutes. I was surprised he was able to come over pretty quickly the same day, late monday afternoon.
I was thinking I would have to wait until the next day to get any service!

He was wore a mask. He was very pleasant, personable and professional- as well as knowledgable.

He was right, there was a little sequence that needed to be performed in a certain way in  the circuit breaker and it was not obvious.  It was a little tricky.  
(Perhaps if I had been calmer and  in a better state of mind, he might have been able to  help me on the phone. I think it is commendable that he wanted to try to help me without having a service call!)

He looked at the circuit box and  got the power on right away, very quickly. He showed me exactly what to do if it ever happened again.

He didnt try to replace anything that didnt need repairing just to take advantage of the situation. (Being female and pretty unfamiliar with electric work he could have replaced the whole circuit breaker and charged me whatever...
I was prepared for the worst...)

He was a good guy and was very honest.
I will definitely use his services if I need an electrician for anything in the future.

It was refreshing to have a service person of any type who was honest and caring.
I  highly recommend you give him a try.

I've used Corb twice now, once to connect my hard-wired pool heater/heat pump (which required upgrading from a 30 amp to 60 amp circuit) and once to fix a problem with all my appliances being on the same circuit and overloading the circuit. I was very satisfied with both jobs and felt they were at a reasonable price. They also arrived when they said they would, which seems to be rare these days. Would highly recommend.

Sebastian was great! He was able to love our outlets over to be in the middle of the wall and he was able to add an outlet for us. When he was done he stuck around to make sure everything in our house was up and running after his work (WiFi etc.). He was on time and very efficient- would recommend him and will use him again for our next electrical needs.

RJ electric installed my home charger. Ron is a consummate professional who is on time, get the job done in a clean and neat way, and leaves the site looking as good or better than it did when he arrived (a rare quality!). Would highly recommend him for any electrical needs.

We recently moved to our new home in Elburn, and we wanted to make a few changes.  I wanted a gas range, a garbage disposal, a new light fixture installed and the outlets rewired because they were connected to light switches.  We hired Dave on two separate occasions to complete this work, and we are very pleased.  Dave is very professional, efficient and skilled.  He recommended an air switch for the garbage disposal, which we had never heard of.  We went with his recommendation.  It looks nicer than the traditional light switch on-off for the disposal, and it required less disruption to our kitchen to install.  Before we called Dave, we had another electrician out to give us a quote.  He told us we'd have to rip out a wall or have the switch under the sink.  Neither option seemed appealing, so we called Dave.  I'm so happy we did!

Professional and quality service for electrical needs. All at a price to fit our budget.
