Best Electricians in Illinois

Stefan was at my house less than 30 minutes after I contacted him, and had the whole issue figured out and fixed in under an hour. Highly recommended!

Sims and Sons has knowledgable and professional electricians who provide quality service. We needed some outlets replaced after a fire in our building. Darrell was able to quickly swap things out and even took the time to hunt down tricky sized outlet covers that we have because we live in an old building. When further electrical issues with a light switch completely stumped my building's maintenance guys, Enis came and identified the problem in 2 minutes and quickly repaired it. Now it works perfectly. These guys are good! And COVID safe. Would recommend to anyone who needs an electrician.

Sorely overpriced. I needed an electrical outlet repaired. T&D had to pull a permit to do this work. The permit costs $75. The breaker that was replaced costs about $40. I was charged $300 to repair one electrical outlet. I didn't know any better, but I know now.

Great service! The price was reasonable and he did a great job. We felt very comfortable with him and felt he is trustworthy. We will definitely hire him in the future.

Joe was responsive, on time, fixed the problem quickly and for a fair price. Can't ask for more than that. When he left I was confident the job had been done correctly.

For all you single women, first time homeowners, who are getting ripped off out there, search no more. Chris is an honest professional. He's done mutliple jobs at my place now and trust me, I've searched the quotes. His work is clean, up to code, and even educates me on the do's and don'ts. For me, this goes a long way. His communication is exceptional, his thoroughness is easily visible, and he keeps it real. when you find a good contractor you share him, because there are a lot of contractors out there that are so demanding and the job is total trash ass. That's the worst.

Edward and his crew had been exceptional.  They worked on our investment property to bring all electrical issues to code compliance.  I can't say enough about Edward, he is honest, goes the extra mile to make sure everything is completed with promptness.   He understood our deadlines and needs, he made it work no matter how challenged he was.   Greenline Electric is very reasonably priced and provided a very fair estimate.   Edward puts his customers first and did not fear the many challenges he was faced with.  Edward is knowledgeable about his work, keeps customers well informed,  professional and an absolute delight to work with.  I would highly recommend Edward and Greenline Electric for all your electrical needs.  

Thank you Edward!

My in-laws had trouble with service company they hired to fix their range 2 days ago.  Long story short, the technician blew up their fuse and their whole electric box went out. On top of being on the edge with all the trouble that was done by the repair technician, they had the hardest time to finding an electrician for an emergency appointment. They were told one will come that night but ended up being a no show.

I contacted Ryan electrical power for a quote that night and he responded right away. Given that it was already about 10pm, my in-laws chose to just wait for an electrician from Hobson to come the following morning.

Thursday morning comes and I get a call that the guy was no show again. I gave them Ryan's number and not only was he willing to squeeze them in for that day but he actually took time to listen to their problem and he was able to walk them to fix their issue of restarting their electrical panel.  Folks, this is when you know that one is a master of their craft. It ended up that they didn't even need to have an electrician come over.

Thank you so much for your expertise that you were able to help 2 strangers when they were very frantic and tired. We have saved your information and will recommend you whenever a need for an electrician arises.

Honestly after living in Chicago since 2002, I have FINALLY found an electrician I can trust.

Steer Clear. This is not a legitimate electrical company. Gave me an estimate and did the electrical work for an EV charger in our condo building. Even though building management didn't request City of Chicago license initially, they checked for it later (it can be asked for at any time) and this company is not licensed in the City of Chicago and its illegal to do residential work without it. The job was done completely wrong and he almost blew the sump pump and electrical to entire building by connecting to a panel inexplicably and was told not to. Installed wiring that was bent and broken and taped together which could have caused shocks and burning. New contractor easily installed it - no bends or breaks. The wall outlet installed was open and exposed, and if water dripped to it could electrocute people. Sloppy, cut corners, dangerous, illegal and not up to code. Absolute garbage, rushed work. Refused to get City of Chicago license and come fix job. We will be pursuing our money back. This is an illegitimate electrical company. Avoid at all costs.

Addendum to review:

Right, I'm not an electrician , but here are couple facts that a real electrician should have known and done, that found out about your job.

You were told by the building engineer to use the 480/277 volt panel because 208/120 was already at the capacity.

You just plainly ignored that and proceeded with your version. Maybe you don't know the difference between two.

You ran 208/ 120 wires through 480/277 panel which was a huge code violation and a human life safety issue.

And that's not all:

Then you spliced those wires inside that panel multiple times -- code violation.

You then decided to use lightning contractor conduit to run the wires and overfill that conduit -- code violation.

You installed the breaker at the wrong panel (which was at capacity) so you overloaded that panel.

The wire was badly scraped

You removed pipe straps and made the electrical conduit loose -- code violation.

J boxes that you installed were unsecured and loose with knock outs missing -- code violation

I'm still waiting on the city of Chicago electrical registration paperwork  from you.

A qualified electrician would know right away that he is working with 480/277 volts and would have informed me that i needed a step down transformer in order for the EV charger to work!

On top things you have charged me over $2K for 2 J boxes and a roll of #6 wire, which costs $600 at the most. The piping was already 97% there , so what took you so long.

It took a qualified electrician a total of 8 hours to remove the faulty work and install everything from scratch including installing the transformer.

We'll happily accept a refund to settle this matter

Wow! We are so happy with our experience with Tweaks & Finishes.  Jose and Rodney were excellent communicators from start to finish. They listened to what we were hoping to achieve, gave their suggestions, worked speedily but with great precision, and made our place look fantastic!

We had everything from electrical to painting done in our condo, and it all looks and works spectacular. We will definitely be using their services again and HIGHLY recommend them!

Needed a Tesla wall charger installed in our garage.  Jake showed up on time and offered a few different options with full explanation of each.

Once we agreed on scope and price he went to work.  You could tell he has installed a ton of these.   Job was completed in a timely manner and he left the area cleaner than when he started.  

Charger has been used daily for a few months now without issue.  Would recommend.

I am amazed at the experience we had with Blacklite.  We called on Saturday morning and Neville responded via text within minutes.  First, I must admit, I prefer the texting route as I can be much more comprehensive via written word AND if I forgot something, I can reference back to the text.  We scheduled for Monday, which was a holiday, but Neville squeezed us in.  Our plans changed as he arrived but Neville came with us to the hardware store to get supplies.  I cannot think of better service.  We had a vision but Neville's vision was even better than we had imagined.  It's so nice to have someone who obviously loves his job and gives great input.  We are so pleased and plan to call on Blacklite again when we need an electrician.

Great people and great work!   I had a kind of emergency situation to replace the 50 year old electrical service in my 101 year old Oak Park house - new panel plus outside work - at the end of January 2016.  I am so glad I found Kinetic!  Ted is very fair and honest and the crew is wonderful.  They even liked my piano playing :)   Highly recommended.

Could not recommend a better electrician!

I had a desire to install ceiling recessed lights and ceiling fans in a few rooms for some time. After doing some research on Yelp, I found Tom and gave him a call. We were able to set up a in-person consultation soon after, where he walked me through the options for recessed LED lights (4in vs 6in) and spacing of said lights. We agreed on an overall plan and start date.

During the project, Tom and his men were timely, clean, and very efficient in their work. They carefully calculated and marked out the placement of the lights and fan on the ceiling in each room for my approval before starting to cut into the drywall. In the end, they had to cut into a surprisingly small amount of the drywall to put everything together. In the two places in each room that they did have to open up the wall, they carefully replaced the drywall, saving me from having to make any large patches before repainting.

I wanted to use a particular smart dimming switch (Brilliant), but it was backordered and did not arrive in time. Tom hooked up everything using temporary switches and came back later to finish the job once they arrived.

Overall, I would definitely use Tom and his men again! I have a couple other projects around the house I've been thinking of (electric car charger, exterior light, replacing track lighting with more recessed lights, etc.) and plan to use Tom for these projects in the future!

Frank is very professional.  Showed up when he said he would, explained what he was doing, and even provided a lower price than what he first quoted.  I will definitely call him again for any electrical job.  Highly recommend!

Very responsive and responsible. Alex tried to help us trouble shoot over the phone to save us money. When that didn't work he showed up promptly, diagnosed the issue, and fixed the bad breaker.

Best pricing around and great young guy working hard for his business. Highly recommended.

I really appreciate Fixer.com service.

I've had minor repair work that I've noticed living in my home for the past 10 years.. Whenever I'd get the enthusiasm to reach out to any other company on Yelp to request a quote, I'd be met with: That project is too small of a job, so we're not coming out for just that.  

I'm glad that I got the whim to check yelp again recently and came upon Fixer.com.  They charge hourly, so they don't really care if a job is too little.  You just start out by going on the website, creating an account, and then selecting a date/time (it can be the same day even), and then Jayme will respond right away to confirm the appointment.

I had a crumbling wall amongst many other issues in my home.  Jayme coordinated for Chang and Katie out to my home today and they did a fantastic job of tackling the problems I had requested to be addressed.  They were both very knowledgeable about what they were doing and they did a great job explaining things to me.  And I feel like they both had strong integrity, as they would state that they were stopping the clock whenever appropriate so that I wouldn't be charged for any moments where they weren't working.

I really appreciate that a service such as this exists for people who are not confident in repairing small jobs on their own.  I'm excited to continue to work with Fixer.com on other projects that I had been thinking about over the past 10 years.  I fully believe in them and have the utmost confidence in Katie, Chang, Jayme and the whole team.
