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!

Pablo, Tony, Grace and the whole team were amazing. They immediately came to bid the work and started the project a few days later. Running electricity to the second unit through the back porch down from a hot attic in 90 degree plus weather, all with zero complaints. I'm renovating a two-unit property and will definitely use again for the lower unit when the tenants leave. Highly recommend.

Omar did excellent job on our electrical work. project,,,installed conduit and outdoor outlets for deck and landscape lighting .He knows his stuff....appreciate the quiet professional approach...he does not waste a lot of time talking a lot of nonsense but just comes in and gets the job done. answered all questions thoroughly ....Pricing was direct and fair...and correlated with the price estimate before work was done..I recommend him without hesitation...

I'd highly recommend to anyone.  They've been out to my home a couple of times and have always done a great job. I had a circuit breaker replaced and a back porch light that had gone out a couple of years ago.  They did a great job.
I'd highly recommend their services.

Thanks, Dan, for referring this company to me.

Dion has done two projects for us in two different (very old) houses and has done a fantastic job in both. Efficient and honest, will troubleshoot with you and give you his straightforward opinion on what can be done and the options for making it work. I appreciate his knowledge and his skill!

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.

John came by within 90 minutes to assess our power outage. He was quickly able to determine that ComEd's meter labeling was incorrect and the situation was on their end. While he didn't get his hands dirty this time, we'll definitely be giving him a call again to work on installing new fixtures and troubleshooting some gremlins that have surfaced.

When my fan blower stopped working a few weeks ago, I called out Freedom to diagnose/fix the issue.  After they tried to tell me the best thing to do would be to replace the entire furnace for 1000's of dollars, I decided to get a second opinion.

Boy am I glad that I did-AND that I found ServiceMax.  Instead of assuming the worst case scenario, the tech was able to fix the issue by replacing a capacitor at a cost of only $187, all in.  They were honest, transparent, prompt and professional.

They've definitely won me over as a customer and I highly recommend!

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.

Our Condo building uses ABS Electric for our common area electrical repairs and equipment replacement.  Have not had a job they could not do.
My wife and I had used them in the past in our condo unit for a chandelier move and adding a couple of dimmer switches.  All went well.
Today we used them to add two ceiling can lights with dimmer switches and rough out a wall in our bedroom so we could add an electric fireplace.  More work then I imagined but they tackled the job of moving conduit pipes that where there, adding a junction box and another  two outlets. Brian and Jason were on time, worked hard, did a couple of great installations and left the area neat and clean.I thought the price was fair. I feel comfortable recommending ABS Electric to my condo neighbors.

I can't say enough about this company, it's owner, it's employees, and the work they perform.

Five years ago open my first business and Tom came highly recommended. It was for a new build out medical and we were on a limited budget. Tom came in gave us a quote right quote and a few recommendations and it worked out better than expected. A few years later we needed a new light for the office and he put it in on schedule and below budget.

Flash 4 to 5 years later and I'm opening a new business. Another medical off office but with a different layout in a different look. I consulted Tom from the beginning to determine what's the most efficient way we can be green and modern what having a medical book. He again gave me some recommendations and even took me to an another business that had device that I was looking for that he recommend it and it was exactly what I wanted. All my patients talk about how cool it is at all my lights are like censored, LED, dimmable, and soft.  I'm happy to say that I've been open for a year now and I'm calling Tom again to add a couple more outlets, that he recommended from the beginning and I didn't take his advice, and again he gave me some better advice and we have booked the next job.

My go to company for an commercial, residential, and medical electrical need.

Sorry if any typos; using voice text.

Dave saved me!  after spending hours trying to install a new thermostat (i'm not at all handy) I called Patterson's.  he arrived in 15 minutes and had me up and running in no time.

Called on a Saturday afternoon, and Sal came out on a Sunday at 10a :-). He knew exactly what the problem was, and it was fixed within 2 hrs at a reasonable cost.  Very happy customer! - you will not be disappointed.

My bf and I used Corrigan and Freres for whole house rewiring, replacing  the electric panel, adding outlets, adding a ceiling fan, etc.  They did a great job!  Mike Corrigan, the owner, gave us clear quotes that allowed us to pick and choose what we wanted done.  He got the permit for the work and it passed inspection.  Ron and Oliver were our electricians, who each have decades of experience.  Their work was neat and done in a timely manner.  My boyfriend works from home, so scheduling wasn't a problem for us.    We recommend Corrigan and Freres.   :-)

I requested a quote to replace the k&t on the second floor of my house.  He messaged me asking where I was located, and I told him.  He then proceeded to tell me that he Googled my house, and it would cost $15k to rewire my house and replace the panel.  I told him that it was obvious that he didn't read my request because I only requested the 2nd floor to be done, and didn't need a new panel.  The then said that it would be about $7-8K to do the 2nd floor.

I was extremely disappointed because he didn't even bother to come out to my house to give me an estimate, which he could have easily done, because my house is ONE BLOCK from his business address according to his Yelp profile.

I would never trust anyone who couldn't even be bothered to go out to a site to give an estimate, especially one he could walk to.

He might do good work, but his estimate was overpriced from other people I've talked to by at least $2k

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.

Called this guy out of a recommendation, had horrible experience talking to him, very rude and disrespectful! Stay away !!
