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!

I called All Power Electric the night before thanksgiving for an issue we were having with our circuit breaker. They calmly explained what we should do and promptly showed up the next morning as promised. Tony was extremely professional, respectful of our home, and explained everything in detail. There were no surprises and we are so glad we called this company. We will definitely use them again without hesitation.

We received timely and excellent services for electrical work for our kitchen. However they are a bit pricey.  We didn't realize how pricey they were until we started started remodeling our basement at which time we obtained a quote from Excel Electrical and another Electrical company.  The quote we received from the other electrical company was 1/2 the price, of the quote we received from Excel's.  Excellent work but definitely shop around

I came in and I'm Hispanic he cussed at me and called me a Spic that he doesn't need my business and my money is no good here he also had a gun and has a threatening demeanor

I've had the following work done by Dion and his crew:
1) Cat6 network run from basement to second floor
2) Coax moved from one wall to another
3) Vent fans in two bathrooms replaced
4) Back porch light fixed
5) Dishwasher power connected and dishwasher installed

I have not a single complaint.  Their efficiency and professionalism left nothing to be desired.

Well done, and thank you for your work.

Perlongo Electric is exactly what his voicemail claims, your friendly neighborhood electrician. Frank is extremely friendly and upfront with the estimate. He installed 3 ceiling fans and four can lights in my house, and he finished right on time for exactly whet he bid the job for. He actually changed all my old two prong outlets into grounded prong outlets for no additional cost. He was very knowledgable and hard working. It must have been 100 degrees in my attic where he had to run wire for the lights, but he still finished on time. I have called him several time with questions about electrical work and if he can explain a fix for me to do he would, otherwise come and take a look. I was extremely happy with the work Frank did and I would highly recommend him to any friends or family of mine. You will not be disappointed.

Yelp, you did me right! John is amazing. Friendly, professional, prompt! Just an awesome experience. I had an issue with a timer on my building, John came out on a Sunday and repaired the issue for less than half of what other Yelp rated electricians were charging. This is my new go to electrician for my building and my home.

Very disappointed with this business after seeing such amazing ratings. I recently went under contract on a mixed use commercial space and was under tight inspection period where I needed an estimate for electrical and plumbing work. Seeing the amazing reviews I reached out to ServiceMax and they said no problem I could get an estimate via sending my inspection report to them by the end of the day. That was over 3 days ago and I was forced to find another provider last minute this morning to help me. Very disappointed in the lack of responsiveness after multiple attempts to get a reply or update.

Use them on number of occasions and not only are they honest and trustworthy but no one can beat the rates and trust me I know prices around here as I use different electricians and can say enough about them. Would strongly recommend to anyone who is in need.

My new home was in need of a ton of new lighting and electrical work. When Jonathan came out to give his estimate, I knew he was the right guy for the job for many reasons. He was communicative, thorough, and very knowledgeable. I had a pretty clear vision for what I wanted, so he listened and made sure he understood every detail to get the project done right. There were also a few areas where I was uncertain and he provided me with some really awesome options that ended turning out even better than I could have imagined. Jonathan is a real pro and he will definitely be my go-to for any electrical needs.

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 highly recommend ABS Electric. They did a fantastic job during a home remodel. Installed a new electric panel, canned lighting, recessed led lighting, new wiring and more. They exceeded my expectations, kept all their timing commitments and truly stand behind their work!!!

In Town remains 5 star all the way.  I've since had them come do additional relatively small jobs, all excellent.  Even better, they stand behind their work no matter what (I'm NOT meaning to imply they did poor work, sometimes things just fail).  This is something you don't see every day anymore, but greatly appreciated as a customer.  All this combined will keep me a LOYAL customer for all my electrical work.  Thanks again, In Town.

Very unprofessional and questionable business practices.  Overpriced cash grab for 2 minutes of work and less than 10 minutes total between pulling into my driveway and leaving, taking advantage of someone selling a home.

PES was asked to come essentially remove one screw and charged $175.  Robert left our home without providing a receipt and then five days later, reached back out saying he realized that more work was needed which would be an additional $775.  This was a simple job within a town he is supposedly familiar with that he was happy to do, collect payment on, and leave.  Either he was incompetent enough to not realize what needed to be done when he was standing in front of a sub panel or he was looking to further try and take advantage of us.  Regardless of which is accurate, I would never have them back in my home working on anything.

Unfortunately, their lack of professionalism does not end there but instead extends to a receipt ultimately being produced that states something to the effect of my work doesn't satisfy the inspection report.  This man was never  shown an inspection report or any other documentation for that matter.  He also proceeded to reply to another negative review posted by my wife in which he fabricated a quote to paint her in a negative light.

I have absolutely no respect for anyone who runs a business this way and even if I could give a zero star review, it would be too generous.

Oooooh my goodness!!! This company is ah-mazing!!! I currently live in seattle, WA and was in need of a last minute electrician for my property in chicago. And let me tell you, Sal was beyond amazing. I told him my problem and Sal gave me some trouble shooting advice, which then I told my dad who was on my property to try out. After my dad was unable to fix the problem, Sal made no hesitations to go over there.
For me, when I think about finding any sorts of handyman, I always think that they're going to rip me off somehow or someway. But after talking to Sal and him providing me advice on how to fix the problem gave reassurance that he wasn't trying to rip me off. Even after my dad couldn't fix the problem, Sal told me up front what he was going to charge me and to anticipate what parts he would have to buy as well. Communication was excellent which was also a key point for me since I was unable to be on the property!

My condo/coop association recommended this company to me as they have done so much work in our old and very quirky building.  I have used them several times to install lighting, add electricity, etc etc.  I cannot overstate my admiration for them.  They are just excellent.  Very professional, very knowledgable, and very trustworthy.  I won't go to anyone else.

Jaime got us in same-day for an issue with our 220v outlet in our laundry room. It took him all of 10 minutes to diagnose the issue and another 30 to fix it.

We will definitely be using Jaime with Shock Tech 2 for all of our electrical needs!

I love Don. He will give you an honest price and do an honest job. In my book, it doesn't get better than that.

We had a bathroom fan and a ceiling fan that needed to be installed. Al and Andy came in and split up the jobs to get them done faster. Great work and great communication!
