Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

We bought a new dryer that was causing an electrical fuse to blow whenever we used it. I called PB Electrical Services and they came right away, diagnosed the issue as needing a new circuit breaker, and fixed it same day. Great service and I'll definitely use them for future electrical needs!

These guys are reliable, responsive and professional!
I am very satisfied with the service I received for replacing a GFCI outlet. The price was also competitive and fair. I highly recommend them.

I've not received any incentives to write this review.

Excel did amazing work. They were focused, efficient, flexible, neat, courteous and very affordable. Minor corrections/modifications were addressed immediately and to our complete satisfaction. I was most impressed by how Omar and his crew worked with us in the planning stages. They listened closely, offered solid advice and did quality work. We'll be calling them again as we do more.

Highly recommended from a fairly critical and cautious homeowner.

Exceptional family-owned business.  Uriel and his father do a great job.  Professional and efficient.  We needed our wiring evaluated in a section of our industrial facility. What we thought would be a complicated job was evaluated, repaired, and replacement parts installed in under an hour.  Reasonable rates too.  Highly recommend.  Montoya is now our go-to electrician service.

Looking for a reputable, kind, timely, professional, competitive electrician? Dion is your man.

He arrived on time and was able to complete (read: finish) a job in THREE DAYS that another less-than-savory electrician had delayed for over 6 weeks!!!

He is friendly, communicative and gets the job done.  He even made suggestions to put nice finishing touches we hadn't considered.  

We've already referred him to our neighbors - who equally were happy with their experience.  

5 Stars!

The epitome of customer service.  Frank Perlongo is good, no great, and performs work as though it was being performed on his own home.

John is knowledgeable, gracious and very affordable.  He has gone out of his way to do great work for me on two separate occasions.  I highly recommend him and will use him again.

I called out Malek primarily for an electrician. They were able to send out Steve (electrician) within the same day. He was extremely polite, helpful and even gave me some great tips on home automation products. In hooking up the nest (there were some wiring issues), he checked the furnace and noticed it was pretty filthy. Since we had just purchased the house, we figured we'd go ahead and get it cleaned.

I was told over the phone that I would be charged $79 for a service visit which would include cleaning the furnace, cleaning the AC condenser on the roof, and running the additional wiring needed for the nest. The following day, as the service was being done we were told that $79 only covered a part of those services and the total was actually going to be over $200. I really appreciated the service provided by Steve. I think he went above and beyond. I was a little annoyed with the breakdown in communication that led to us signing up for an extra service we didn't intend to, and paying more in the process.

UPDATED 5/17/17:
Malek customer service contacted me, apologized for the mix-up, and offered a complimentary service in order to compensate for the mix-up. Appreciate the fast response and dedication to customer satisfaction. I would definitely use Malek again in the future.

Vlad gave me a reasonable quote for changing out a 220v electric service to a 110v service and installing a 20amp outlet on a dedicated line to service a gas cooktop.  He was able to perform the work the following day.  He arrived exactly on schedule and was neat and efficient in performing the work.  I would definitely call on Vlad for any electrical work I need done in the future.

We hired a service from Angi's List to have a wall knocked down in our home.    Sooo we had to have some electricity rerouted. The electrician, they brought with them, completely bailed on us and left us with wires hanging and outlets exposed. With two boys and two dogs we had to find an electrician reliable and fast. We gave Johnny a call and he really came through for us. He  was friendly, reasonable, and just an over all a really cool guy. The electrical  work was neat and thorough. We will be using his services for our basemanent and any other future projects.

Our Generac whole house generator failed to come on during a multi-hour power outage on a Sunday morning. The Generac support line recommended AL Electric as the closest dealer. Andrey picked up the phone after two rings, came out within an hour, and had our generator running within 2 minutes. (The generator had an error code that required dealer service.) His charge for an emergency visit on a Sunday morning was very reasonable and he will be coming back later in the week to do full maintenance on the unit. As the Generac support person said, you need to have a dealer do maintenance on it yearly so AL Electric will be our regular service. Andrey is also very friendly and knowledgeable.

I work for a lighting store and we've recommended ABS electric numerous times. We always hear the best complements about them plus they're very knowledgeable. There are few companies we trust when dealing with certain projects and I never hesitate to let clients know about them.

InTowns staff, both office and the field (Nick), were fantastic on a job that had them coming back multiple times.  They were responsive, professional, and addressed all concerns. I would highly recommend them.

THE BEST!    

We can't say enough good things about David Patterson.  He does outstanding work, is incredibly responsive and helpful, and is a pleasure to work with.

David integrated a complete landscape lighting/electrical system into our new patio/landscaping project. We had no experience with this type/scale of project and David patiently explained every step of the process, answered all of our questions, and was always brimming with great ideas.  He is fabulously knowledgeable, his guidance was spot on, and we are extremely pleased with how everything turned out.

In addition to being so helpful, David was the quintessential professional.  He was responsive, reliable, flexible, efficient, clean, and friendly.  

David also went over and above our expectations in many different ways; like emailing us pictures during construction to document the underground wiring; like making lawn trenches and wires disappear; like leaving the place cleaner than he found it; like re-planting a 100 lb. boxwood that needed moving; like making sure he was present every time the city inspector stopped by; like spending hours in the hot sun chiseling through cement to re-install conduit and wiring that was damaged by a different contractor.  

David has also installed several interior switches and outlets in our home, as well as spent a great deal of time with us investigating and discussing potential future projects.  No matter how small or big the job, David always brings his signature blend of helpful attitude and creative suggestions ensuring the best possible solution for your home, and an enjoyable experience for you.

We highly recommend David for any type of electrical project.

Sal was prompt and took action for solutions.  I called him late yesterday after finding him on yelp and we were trying to determine a good time to meet (our issue wasn't an emergency so we weren't in a hurry) and mentioned that I would be home later in the evening and he said he would be by at 6:00!  He was prompt and had his equipment and switch that I had mentioned on the phone. Dependable!

They were at my home on 2 occasions in Rogers Park. The work was excellent and finished in a reasonable amount of time. Thanks from Norm.

Front porch lights were flickering when power was off when using LED bulbs in the sockets. Called Jaime at ShockTech2 and he was willing to come out the same day with no upcharge. I decided to have him come out the next day. He and his assistant George came out and replaced the timer switch, which was old and incompatible with the LED lights. They did it in a very short time at a very reasonable price and did a great job. Very nice, and honest people. I would definitely use them again for my electrical services.

Don, has been performing electrical work for us for many years. You can always get advice and a great job performed from Don. Don is one of the last old timers whose word is his bond, Gary J.

The pricing is confusing. I was charged an $89 fee to show up which I understood as what would typically be the diagnostic fee and then $125/hr. The guy was here for 20 min, could not actually do the repair, and needed to go do research to see if the parts were available to do the work and I am left with a $214 bill. As an architect who works with construction people on a daily bases, this is not how I have ever seen someone do business. I would say to make sure that they have the capability to do the job and get everything in writing beforehand.
