It took a second try but Stefan identified and replaced my circuit breaker. He spoke with my warranty company to explain the issue. He identified another electrical
Issue regarding a transformer.

Darrell and Timmy are experts in their field! Easy and fast response time! Darrell came within the hour from calling him and had evaluated and installed all new outlets and repaired the kitchen and living room lights. They are reliable and trustworthy sources in their field and even go above and beyond to assist with recommendations outside of their expertise (I.e drywall and roofers). They take the time to explain what the source of the problem is, solutions, and pricing. They double and triple check their work and leave the rooms cleaner than when they came! Plus, it helps that they are great company! I would 100% recommend this magnetic duo!

I contacted T & D Electrical to help my condo building address a building violation with our electrical driveway gate.  We required a licensed electrician in order to meet City of Chicago codes and Marcus was the only electrician of about 15 that I contacted who was available and willing to help me.  He was extremely professional from the start.  He scheduled the initial estimate within 2 days of my phone call, he arrived on-time to his appointment and called me to let me know he was on his way.  He was courteous and respectful and extremely knowledgeable about the work that we needed done.  His office staff (Christine & Siobhan) were equally friendly and quickly worked to get us the permit we needed and schedule the repair.  He warned me that it may take 4 weeks before the work could be completed, but it was done in 2 weeks!  The electricians that he sent were kind, quick, and thorough, completing the work in 2 hours, when 4-5 hours was estimated- they also arrived on-time!  The price seemed completely reasonable for the work done and came in at about $300 under the initial estimate.  Every single aspect of my experience with T & D was absolutely outstanding.  I not only wholeheartedly recommend T & D to fellow Chicagoans requiring high quality work, but I can speak for my condo building when I say that we will be using T & D for all of our future electrical needs!

Did great work at a fair price. Did exactly what he promised to. Finished the project on time. I recommend him to family members and would definitely use again.

I just had electrical work done at my home and Joe did a great job! Had at least 4/5 projects which were not large and he was fast and efficient. Will definitely call again for future needs.

I needed some electrical work done in my garage and MNC did great work.  Quick response, quality work and a good price.  I recommend.

Over the weekend a pretty rough storm came through and worked a number on my front porch light causing a short to occur and loss of electric through the entire upstairs of my home. After ruling out a blown fuse, immediately, I was concerned about the safety of my home and what costs might be associated with this type of repair.  But unfortunately, it was a Saturday and I knew it might be difficult to have someone come out right away without it costing me an arm and a leg.  After doing a search, I was lucky enough to have found Greenline Electric, Edward answered the phone, put my concerns at ease and within an hour was at my home, with an assistant, and ready to evaluate and take care of the issue. He was very upfront about the cost of the visit and gave me all available options at a fair price.  He and his team were knowledgeable, courteous, and helpful.    Once he addressed the safety issue, he had indicated he was going to come back early the following week to finish weatherproofing the front porch light, now that the safety issue had been addressed.  And just as promised, he reached out to me a few days later and came back to finish the job.  If you are in need of an electrician who will take the time to find and solve your issues at a reasonable price (even in stressful, emergency situations), check out Greenline Electric!

Had some electrical troubles in our new house we needed fixed and addressed. Ryan was out at my house within an hour of calling him. Very professional, personable, and knowledgeable. He took the time to not only do a thorough job but explain everything he did each step of the way. Was quite a long project as we couldn't locate the problem immediately, but after some troubleshooting and enjoyable conversation, he located the problem and solved it. I don't know anything about electrician pricing but was told from my family who knows a thing or two about the business that his pricing was great and extremely fair for the job he did the length of time it took. Would highly recommend. Safe to say I've found my electrician for any future needs I may have. Thanks again Ryan, pleasure getting to know you.

Excellent service and follow up. Gave me multiple options for what I wanted to do based on price and need.  Very quick to respond to later issue. The people I spoke to and came out were all very nice and professional.

Steer Clear. This is not a legitimate electrical company. Gave me an estimate and did the electrical work for an EV charger in our condo building. Even though building management didn't request City of Chicago license initially, they checked for it later (it can be asked for at any time) and this company is not licensed in the City of Chicago and its illegal to do residential work without it. The job was done completely wrong and he almost blew the sump pump and electrical to entire building by connecting to a panel inexplicably and was told not to. Installed wiring that was bent and broken and taped together which could have caused shocks and burning. New contractor easily installed it - no bends or breaks. The wall outlet installed was open and exposed, and if water dripped to it could electrocute people. Sloppy, cut corners, dangerous, illegal and not up to code. Absolute garbage, rushed work. Refused to get City of Chicago license and come fix job. We will be pursuing our money back. This is an illegitimate electrical company. Avoid at all costs.

Addendum to review:

Right, I'm not an electrician , but here are couple facts that a real electrician should have known and done, that found out about your job.

You were told by the building engineer to use the 480/277 volt panel because 208/120 was already at the capacity.

You just plainly ignored that and proceeded with your version. Maybe you don't know the difference between two.

You ran 208/ 120 wires through 480/277 panel which was a huge code violation and a human life safety issue.

And that's not all:

Then you spliced those wires inside that panel multiple times -- code violation.

You then decided to use lightning contractor conduit to run the wires and overfill that conduit -- code violation.

You installed the breaker at the wrong panel (which was at capacity) so you overloaded that panel.

The wire was badly scraped

You removed pipe straps and made the electrical conduit loose -- code violation.

J boxes that you installed were unsecured and loose with knock outs missing -- code violation

I'm still waiting on the city of Chicago electrical registration paperwork  from you.

A qualified electrician would know right away that he is working with 480/277 volts and would have informed me that i needed a step down transformer in order for the EV charger to work!

On top things you have charged me over $2K for 2 J boxes and a roll of #6 wire, which costs $600 at the most. The piping was already 97% there , so what took you so long.

It took a qualified electrician a total of 8 hours to remove the faulty work and install everything from scratch including installing the transformer.

We'll happily accept a refund to settle this matter

Jose and Rodney were amazing! I had them paint all the common areas in my new condo and it looks fantastic! They were both very nice and incredibly professional, getting to work right away. They'd given me an initial estimate that was a very fair price and that was exactly what I paid on the day. Really zero complaints and I will definitely be contacting them if I need anything in the future.

Jake came to fix an electrical issue on our rooftop. He was able to quickly identify the problem and address it. He was very friendly and reasonably priced. I definitely recommend!

I had Blacklite Electric replace a couple of light fixtures. They moved a couple of outlets above my fireplace and installed lights under my kitchen cabinets.

They were on time, professional and quick. I will definitely work with them again if I need any electrical work done.

Text message communication is a bonus.

I used Kinetic Energy after a lackluster experience with another company. Kinetic has been a joy to work with (though no one wants electrical issues!).  

Even when they are busy, they are quick to respond and they always arrive on time and are able to identify issues and fix anything that's needed. Even for scheduled light fixture installations, they've been quick and always keep me informed of what they've done and work efficiently.  They've also always cleaned up spotlessly which is always helpful.

Solid, trustworthy electricians.

A++ in all aspects. I had great pleasure to hire Tom's company for our house project. The project included multiple rooms. Complete Bath and kitchen electrical renovation. Two bathrooms received outlets, switches, can lights and fans. The kitchen received  new can lights and outlets. Living room got new can lights. We also added wired smoke detectors throughout the house. Tom was a total professional when he came in for the estimate. Everything was explained so that there were no surprises any time during the project and he made sure that we understood the work that was going to take place. Prices were very competitive, and work was done in the time promised. Tom made sure that everything was done right, to code and left everything clean and spotless. I would definitely hire again. Highly recommended.

Wonderful communication and service from Frank and his father. We couldn't be happier with the installation of our lights, switches, and other necessary repairs. Would highly recommend them for your future home needs.

Alex responded to my posting quickly, was clear on costs, and came out at 8am the following day as promised. I gave wrong information on parts and he was ready with solutions to salvage the job and gave great advice. Would definitely hire again.

Issue with fixer is that schedulers and concierge have no idea how long tasks take. My fixer scheduled for 3:30 came at 7:00.  They cannot actually give you an accurate time.

Unfortunately the problem with smoke detector was not fixed. Simple issue of battery replacement was too high to reach. He left and one hour later beeping started again. Disappointing experience. So after $94, I have to hire an actual electrician.
