Best Electricians in Chicago, IL

We heard a buzzing noise in our house so I checked each breaker one by one. After still hearing the buzzing I shut off the main breaker which cut power to the entire house. The buzzing noise then stopped so I knew it was an electrical problem. Then I tried to reset the main breaker but it wouldn't turn back on. Now not having power to the entire house I panicked and checked Yelp and found Patrick Electrical. They were very honest with what they would do to help me, quoted the price and showed up an hour later. The young electrician was very nice and explained what was done. Power restored and everyone was happy. Thank you Patrick.

I have had a number of electricians try to fix a number of electrical problems in my home.  I was lucky enough to find Upgrade Electric!  I spoke with the owner, Wally, and he was extremely knowledgeable, volunteered a cost estimate without me having to ask and assured me that they could fix whatever needed fixing.  Robert and Mark arrived at my home and fixed my chandelier, a light switch that hadn't worked in years, and fixed my garage lights so that they operate by switch...after 14 years! They even changed light bulbs in a 20ft ceiling that I couldn't replace.
They were extremely knowledgeable, nice, cleaned up after the work was done and I paid a very fair price for the work!!!
I will NEVER call another electrician and HIGHLY recommend Upgrade Electric!! I have told my family and friends about them.  
It is very rare these days to find a service provider who is honest, fair and I cannot explain how appreciative I am.  Thank you Wally, Robert and Mark!

We had an obsolete circuit breaker that needed replacing and the service was quick, convenient and priced properly. Got the job done in 3-4 hours to replace the breaker and paneling. Technician came on short notice and was able to get us back power and came back the next day to replace everything. Quality work, would recommend.

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!

Brighten Up Electric installed outdoor lighting on my house in the front & back and along the garage in my backyard.
They did a great job, were very professional and friendly.
I live how my house looks now and the lighting has added a level of security I was missing.

We have used Cordial Electric for many projects over the years.  They've completely rewired our basement, replaced our circuit breaker box, replaced old outlets with new, and repaired outdoor lighting.  They're always professional, on time, no nonsense on the job site.  Their prices are competitive and I would never use another electrician than Cordial Electric.  No matter the size of the job, you won't be disappointed.

We were in search of an electrician that could add a 50 amp service outside for our rv.  We had a full electrical panel and Alex's was the only estimate that thought of a more affordable option and was available quickly. Did a great job.  We are super happy!  Definitely will contact again for other projects!

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.

Had a small job of relocating an outdoor light electrical box, that had to be completed before contractor started exterior finish work.  The work was done professionally (neat and correct), and completed quickly and for less than the estimate provided.  Will work with Corb Electric again and recommend to any friend and neighbor.  Great people!

Very reasonably priced.
Quick response time and scheduling.
Work performed: ceiling fan, reconnecting light switches/electrical wiring and under cabinet lighting.  
Diagnosed and fixed the electrical problems without any issues.
Glad I found and definitely hiring again.

Ron and his assistant were terrific. We needed to get new outdoor lights installed and got multiple quotes. RJ Electric provided a very fair quote with a great turnaround time. Ron and his assistant came on-site, communicated well and did the installation in a few hours.

I'd highly recommend them and will use them again in the future for sure.

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!

Agree with previous reviewer.they tend to not return when you call.just sad....hear they are not even in the area anymore..........issssssh
