Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

In life, one has many worries.  Its important to work with companies that lift a burden off. As a young, tech savvy professional, these guys not only met my expectations, but easily surpassed them.   Alltown Electric has always had and will always have my business both residentially and commercially.  They installed several RING door bell cameras and floodlights throughout the house, along with automatic timers for all our lights.  Noel, the business owner, is one of a kind.  His personality and demeanor shine through.  I am certain that his care is not only for his business, but his employees as well.  It is a well run professional business with proper leadership.  These guys are doing things right!

Had Mike Verdone up grade my electric to my home. He was recommended to me by the village of Hillside. He is an honest guy did the work he said he was going to do, and at the price he said he was going to do it at. He always returned my phone calls , and explained in detail what he had to do , to bring my electric service up to village code. I was very happy with mike's work, and if I ever need any more electric work done he will be the first one I will call.

If i could give him 6 stars I would

I needed an electrician to install sconces at my place. Victor did an awesome job: he was quick, very efficient and the price was very affordable. I definitely recommend him and I will work with Victor again,

Don't bother calling if you are looking to get work done outside of Hyde Park.

We had Aardvark Electric install 6 can lights in our living room. Frank, the owner, was very thorough in explaining what the instal would involve. Michael, the electrician who installed the lights was on time, professional and a pleasure to work with. The price was also very competitive. We will definitely use Aardvark in the future!

Very knowledgable.  These guys shifted around their schedule to accomodate me.  Great service and thorough!

Skyline Electric was very easy to work with and come as soon as they could. I called several companies to give me a quote and Skyline gave me, not only the best quote but were the most honest about what I needed to be done. I would 100% recommend and use this company again.

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

We needed our old smoke detector fixed. Volodymyr was quick, straightforward, and professional. He also replied to messages within a reasonable time frame. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Lukasz and Maggie for your quick response to the problem we were having with non-working outlets in our master bedroom. Lukasz squeezed us into his day, assessed the problem quickly, and had it fixed in no time. And for a very fair price. It was very kind of you to come right out knowing that a family member is ill and housebound in that room. We will be calling to have other projects done in the near future, and recommend that others call this company if electrical work is needed.

Great  explanation of work done, timely communication, fit us and in quickly to complete agreed upon work.   Geno and his team are professionals

The lights in our whole house were flickering. We had an electrician come out who said the main panel was bad and that the whole kitchen had to be re-wired. They said the house was at risk of burning down. They gave me an estimate for $18,000!

Todd from Hardt Electric was my second opinion. He came in, took a look at the panel, tightened up some connections and now the lights do not flicker. Problem solved. My bill? $152... Todd went on to explain that the panel could use some work and that the wiring in my kitchen is indeed old, but it is not so bad that it needs to be replace immediately. He offered to take care of the same problems at his hourly rate, which will end up saving me about $16,000 over the first company.

Todd listened to my problem and fixed it. He did not try to scare me into buying a bunch of upgrades I do not need.

After being ghosted by another potential handy man I decided to try Yelp and so glad I did. Mo was reliable and very precise. I had dropped a heavy jar  in my bathroom sink and needed it replaced it did take I get the expected to fix BUT he got it done and the price was just right. I then hired him to install a dimmer in my living room lights and he came by today to get it done. You can't go wrong with him, he's honest and reliable will definitely use him again for any future projects.

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:-)

Called AM&L to repair some exposed wires in my garage but they are too busy with other jobs to do the work at all ever.

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.
