Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

I chose Patrick after seeing great reviews and I wish I could have used them but they never gave me the opportunity. I attempted to start a project at the beginning of November with them.  They have never once followed up or initiated contact with me over the course of three months and my last messages were left with no reply.

I requested a consultation to have my house rewired. It took two weeks of bugging him to show up. I even offered to find someone else but he said he would come. He seemed very knowledgeable and I was excited that we'd finally found someone who could help. We have been having strange electrical issues for a few years now and it's a serious problem at this point.

We got to discussing the issues and he suggested putting a monitor on the house for a few weeks to record the electrical activity. This was actually something we had looked into before and this was even more exciting to have someone that was going to meet our needs! He said he was supposed to be pulling the device off of another house that same day and would get back to us.

The next two MONTHS we're just me constantly calling and texting to find out the status. It just felt like excuse after excuse always telling me that they hadn't pulled the device off yet. And even if that were the case, the fact they they never ONCE attempted to contact me with an update and left me to be the one constantly reaching out was extremely frustrating and unprofessional. My last message 3 weeks ago wasn't even responded to.

Now here I am three months later and I've finally given up. It feels like they never really planned to do my project and just wanted to keep stringing me along. I asked multiple times if this was a project they even wanted and if I should find someone else but he just kept saying he was still working on getting the device. Do I think he was? Absolutely not. Because at one point he even forgot who I was when I called and I had to re-explain our entire issue again. If you have ONE of these devices and you're waiting on ONE customer to give it up to another ONE customer, you don't forget the parties involved.

I have had a number of electricians try to fix a number of electrical problems in my home.  I was lucky enough to find Upgrade Electric!  I spoke with the owner, Wally, and he was extremely knowledgeable, volunteered a cost estimate without me having to ask and assured me that they could fix whatever needed fixing.  Robert and Mark arrived at my home and fixed my chandelier, a light switch that hadn't worked in years, and fixed my garage lights so that they operate by switch...after 14 years! They even changed light bulbs in a 20ft ceiling that I couldn't replace.
They were extremely knowledgeable, nice, cleaned up after the work was done and I paid a very fair price for the work!!!
I will NEVER call another electrician and HIGHLY recommend Upgrade Electric!! I have told my family and friends about them.  
It is very rare these days to find a service provider who is honest, fair and I cannot explain how appreciative I am.  Thank you Wally, Robert and Mark!

Could not be happier I used John.  This weekend I played amateur electrician and made an amateur mistake - I cut a wire I shouldn't have, and I didn't take a picture before I started to see how things were in the first place.  John was able to come out on short notice, he came when he said he would, and he worked very quickly without getting annoyed by my stupid questions.  He was also able to fit in a couple other small things I'd been not doing for awhile, and my wife is now measurably happier.  John is definitely getting the call again next time I need something electrical done.

We needed to have a 52-inch fan installed on a 17-foot ceiling.  I called 5 electricians that had been recommended by the place from where we purchased the fan (Menards). Three of the 5 quoted prices $400 and up.  One wouldn't take the job because he didn't have ladders tall enough.  But Jeff Schimanski charged significantly less than the others. He took the old fan down and installed the new one, and he did a great job.  I highly recommend Jeff!

He was a great electrician! He is no longer in business but I sure wish he were. I miss this business!

Called Brighten Up about replacing an outside outlet .  Thought  I would be scheduling a future appointment.  Instead someone was on site in 20 minutes, replaced the outlet in another 20 minutes and was on his way!

Outstanding customer service over the phone and on site !

Awesome!   I did my research...   We had several electrical issues, they took care of everything..  Reasonable rates,  professional, courteous..  I would use them again for sure..  Highly recommend....   Julie

We had a great experience with Alex. What we initially thought was some tiles coming off turned out to be a dishwasher leak and subfloor damage. Alex detected the problem  and he replaced our dishwasher, subfloor and added matching tiles swiftly looking great.

I've used Bob and his guys for the last 2 years of my ongoing home renovation. They are professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy and the service level is great. I chose them because my previous electrician was failing to get back to me and I have not looked back.

I got Mr Dragovic's  company name and number along with a few other referrals  from Menards. I'm  ery glad I picked him.

A small metal ruler accidentally fell onto  the power strip surge protector just as I was unplugging my cell charger in the wee hours of the morning. Sparks flew out of the surge protector and the metal ruler melted in 2 places. The surge protector had burn marks too.

I was thankful I wasnt injured. My power went off everywhere. I was really scared and the next day had a neighbor fiddle around with the circuit breaker. They couldn't figure it out.
I had no idea what was damaged or how bad the problem was going to be. I was worried about the state of my expensive TV and my electric recliner chair...

Mr. Dragovic answered my phone call right away. He actual tried to help me over the phone to see if I could fix my own circuit breaker problem and to save me the cost of the service call.
Some people I think may not have tried to help me on the phone.
I was so upset and worried  at that moment  I just wanted him to come over.  

He made it to my place in less than 30 minutes. I was surprised he was able to come over pretty quickly the same day, late monday afternoon.
I was thinking I would have to wait until the next day to get any service!

He was wore a mask. He was very pleasant, personable and professional- as well as knowledgable.

He was right, there was a little sequence that needed to be performed in a certain way in  the circuit breaker and it was not obvious.  It was a little tricky.  
(Perhaps if I had been calmer and  in a better state of mind, he might have been able to  help me on the phone. I think it is commendable that he wanted to try to help me without having a service call!)

He looked at the circuit box and  got the power on right away, very quickly. He showed me exactly what to do if it ever happened again.

He didnt try to replace anything that didnt need repairing just to take advantage of the situation. (Being female and pretty unfamiliar with electric work he could have replaced the whole circuit breaker and charged me whatever...
I was prepared for the worst...)

He was a good guy and was very honest.
I will definitely use his services if I need an electrician for anything in the future.

It was refreshing to have a service person of any type who was honest and caring.
I  highly recommend you give him a try.

We had Corb Electric at our house to replace to light fixtures/ceiling fans and replace a bathroom exhaust fan.  Scheduling was easy, the electrician was prompt and worked hard by himself for 4 hours.  Price was very reasonable.  We called Corb based on a Yelp Review and were very pleased.  Our prior electrician company never answered the phone after several attempts.

I called Sebastian on Saturday and he responded immediately and today, Monday he installed our ceiling fan. Excellent service, excellent price, he showed up on time, was extremely professional, very personable.  He did an excellent job and I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Ron did a great job installing my Tesla charger.  Very responsive, great communication, and professional.  Took care of the permit for Elmhurst.  Stuck around to get my charger registered with Tesla and set up online.  I would recommend him to anyone looking to get an EV charger installed.

No good at all!
Game me something different from what it was quoted and agreed upon, left a mess and damaged my walls saying doing that is standard... Stay away or you will be disappointed.

Professional and quality service for electrical needs. All at a price to fit our budget.
