Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

I cannot recommend Alltown enough. They completed the entire electrical scope for a large renovation I completed. They gave a good and fair price, but most importantly, they were able to meet my schedule. Very accommodating, professional, and had great communication throughout the project. I will be using Alltown for all my future electrical needs.

I needed a new outlet in our garage for a refrigerator.  Mike responded immediately, provided a very fair quote, and corresponded in a timely fashion.  For installation, Mike provided options and got my buy in before starting.  Mike was professional, informative and he completed the job as expected.  No hesitation using again if I need an electrician.

We had a major issue with electrical supply to our garage. Victor was the first to identify the real issue and discussed it with us. He was prompt in his work and we are relieved. He was able to victoriously finish the work.

peter is probably the most attentive person i've worked with.  i knew where he was at all times and communicated well both via email and text.  we had another person come out at one point and he couldn't figure out the issues...Peter came and within 15 min the issue was fixed.

worth every $.  Highly recommended!!  he should be on your speed dial for any HOA or home.

You will talk to Frank when you call. He will help you diagnose and troubleshoot the problem yourself if he can, which will save you time and money. His staff are professional, nice and work as a team to make sure time/money is saved for you.

NO CREDIT CARDS. Personally, no problem with that, would recommend Frank be upfront with his customers that this is the case. Other than that information not being conveyed before tech came out, great company and service.

We used Current Electrical to do some jobs several months ago, our experiences with them were positive.  Everyone from this company came across as polite and friendly.  Dylan and Julian came on Halloween to change 6 light bulbs on our super high ceiling and install an electric mirror in one of our bathrooms.  They did a good job and Julian was a dare devil who was absolutely fearless of height.  However, when they worked on the jobs outdoors, they encountered one of the worst winter storms on Halloween day, and could not finish all the jobs (not their faults).  I need to give a special shout-out to Andy, who came several days later to finish the job. Andy looked at an additional problem that I showed him outdoors (we didn't notice that before), and decided that we only need to replace a socket of one of the ground lights.  He said he would bring it when he's in the area and replace that for us for free!  Later I found out that the mighty post that Dylan and Julian installed had 2 broken plastic plates.  Maybe they didn't see them as there was a bad winter storm when they were here.  I emailed Don at Current, he immediately responded and promised to re-order the mighty post and would re-install for free.  When Andy came with the post about a couple of weeks later, he was able to just replace the plates without digging out the post and replace that.  I was pleasantly surprised that he still remembered the socket that he mentioned!  He supplied and replaced that for free.  I am very pleased with Andy's honesty, ability and knowledge, great work ethic and attitude!

Just moved into my new condo and wanted a Nest thermostat to replace my old setup. I purchased the device from Best Buy and asked them to install it but the Geek Squad dropped the ball in scheduling my appointment and I grew very frustrated.

Skyline came to the rescue and took on the project. What I didn't realize was that my heat/ac setup was unique and complex. Knowing this I realized that I picked the right company to do this. What I found reassuring was that Kent, who completed the project, was a certified Nest installer.

Kent was very helpful in walking me through each step of his installation process. Through no fault of his own he found that the first device I purchased was defective. We exchanged the bad Nest for a new one and the installation was finally completed.

Overall I think anyone else would have given up due to how complex the setup of my heating/cooling unit. But Kent kept at it and found a solution to my needs. I highly recommend Skyline. I plan on calling Kent again in a few months as I need a ceiling fan installed in my 2nd bedroom. Thanks so much Kent and Skyline for all your help and hard work!!!

Great people. Fast response and very professional and guaranteed work. I will definitely use them again!

Quick service and installation of a tricky light fixture! Took two hours for a new chandelier, but that was with needing to do a little re-wiring. Professional and easy to work with!

I had an electrician from Bartlett, IL, but he was always too busy to come out. I tried LMV because of reviews here, and their proximity. This was one of my best decisions. The electrician they sent was very skilled, and did a good job at a very reasonable price. He even put down a tarp to protect my counter top, and cleaned up after the job. Good company. You can even text them pictures of the job and get quote in return. Highly recommended.

I was impressed with the reviews of Vilano Electric, so I decided to use them to move a power line in the back of my house. He showed up right on time, and his crew were done so quickly. He even added a second brace to ensure that there was no movement of the line with the high winds we were having. I then asked him a quick question about my breaker panel in my new house, and he said he would take a look. He took out his screwdriver, explained what was happening, and gave me so much information to work with. I had a better idea of the safety of the electrical in my home, and was confident that when we saved for the big project, that I would call Vilano again.

Todd was great! They got back to me super quick, scheduled for the next day and got our issue fixed. Great communication, would definitely recommend!

Mo is great.  He is quick to respond, and asks for a few measurements that will help speed up his process.

We had a kitchen cabinet that was coming away from the wall.  He had a plan in place and it worked perfectly.

Mo is fast, efficient, safe, and thorough.  This is my first task I brought to him, but I hope to provide him with more work in the future.

He may be cash only, be prepared.

I am amazed that I am the first person to review this company. Any one who owns property knows how wonderful (and difficult) it is to find a professional, reliable, funny, and super friendly electrician/plumber/contractor/handyman. Well, with Ed, I found The One. He's just fantastic in every way. I recently hired him to repair the doorbells at my two-flat and, as always, he was reasonably priced and available that day. I've used Ed before for some minor electrical work, and this time was no different. He quickly diagnoses the problem, gets it fixed, he's a pleasure to chat with (he has that dry sense of humor that I love), and his prices are very fair (I never feel jipped when he leaves...in fact, I typically think that's it?). I highly recommend Ed for all of your electrical needs. You will be extremely pleased with his services and your wallet won't be empty:-)

These guys are amazing!  We moved into 99-year old house and had no idea what the wiring was like.  I removed a fixture to put in a new ceiling fan and had no idea what I was looking at, but I did know that it crumbled in my fingers.  It turned out to be cloth wiring so we called these guys and could not be happier with the work they did.  They were beyond respectful of our space, were creative with their solutions for replacing the wiring to minimize cutting into walls, were on time and dependable every day, were friendly, and were extremely competent.   It's a family-run business and it really felt like it was their home they were working on when they were here.  I highly recommend them to anyone needing anything electrical done in your home.

As I type this review, a crew from Alternating Currents is in the middle of a big job on my 1947-built brick ranch with plaster walls. They're updating our panel from 100 amp service to 200 (w/power surge protection), adding a dozen or so much-needed outlets throughout the house, putting ceiling lights in our living room, installing a new fancy exhaust fan with heater in a chilly basement bathroom, and creating the necessary additional circuits to distribute the power accordingly. Today is Day Three of this endeavor. The crew is taking great care to keep the cuts and dust to a minimum, but it's a messy project. The crew leaders have been listening and responding to our needs, advising us every step of the way. They're notifying us and getting approval before making any cuts into the walls and ceilings. While we've taken steps to move many belongings out to the garage, they are deftly working around our stuff. And they've been very patient with our overly-curious and somewhat protective mutt. Since the job is still in progress, I'll follow up with additional info. at later date.
