Best Electricians in Illinois

Stefan was great. He responded very quickly and got me a quote without too much back and forth. He got the work done the same day and followed up quickly when I flagged an issue after he left. I am so glad I called him!

We struggled to get an electrician to respond to us but Darrell at Sims responded immediately and was able to have one of his staff come hang our light fixture in the next few days. Ennis was very professional and effective and did a great job. We'd hide them again in a heartbeat the next time we need electrical work done.

Miguel, from T & D,  came to our condo to repair a water heater's 230 volt circuit switch in our utilities closet. He was on time, courteous, and took appropriate Covid safety measures. As I was without hot water, they made a special effort to get the work done in less than 24 hours after I initially called.  Miguel worked quickly to successfully replaced the switch. As with the first time I used T & D, the work was done professionally and in a courteous manner. The cost was very reasonable. I feel fortunate to have found a great electrical service and will definitely use them again as needs arise.

Ted and his son are timely, patient and respectful.  I had purchased a wireless door bell that wasn't compatible but try they did to get it right, they will be kindly coming  back to put in my new purchase.  So glad I finally found an electrician that I can call on for any future electrical work.  I highly recommend Honey Do Home Electrical.

Joe installed new indoor and outdoor power sources in our home. The price was right, he was punctual, focused and completed the job swiftly. We would recommend his services for your electricity needs.

I needed some electrical work done in my garage and MNC did great work.  Quick response, quality work and a good price.  I recommend.

Over the weekend a pretty rough storm came through and worked a number on my front porch light causing a short to occur and loss of electric through the entire upstairs of my home. After ruling out a blown fuse, immediately, I was concerned about the safety of my home and what costs might be associated with this type of repair.  But unfortunately, it was a Saturday and I knew it might be difficult to have someone come out right away without it costing me an arm and a leg.  After doing a search, I was lucky enough to have found Greenline Electric, Edward answered the phone, put my concerns at ease and within an hour was at my home, with an assistant, and ready to evaluate and take care of the issue. He was very upfront about the cost of the visit and gave me all available options at a fair price.  He and his team were knowledgeable, courteous, and helpful.    Once he addressed the safety issue, he had indicated he was going to come back early the following week to finish weatherproofing the front porch light, now that the safety issue had been addressed.  And just as promised, he reached out to me a few days later and came back to finish the job.  If you are in need of an electrician who will take the time to find and solve your issues at a reasonable price (even in stressful, emergency situations), check out Greenline Electric!

Ryan has helped us with several jobs recently. He continues to be highly responsive, punctual, and knowledgeable.

For the latest job, an open neutral, Ryan help me with diagnosing what needed be done and what to look for and helped me narrow down the possibilities.  I sincerely appreciated the approach of coaching me on how to resolve and saving me money as a result. Ryan's concern was performing activities that I could do myself and not being able to appropriately assess the cost (lots of troubleshooting). I appreciate the thoughtfulness. I will continue to be a long term customer!

I was referred to Highlights Chicago by Skyline Electric, another 5-star electrician, and feel that I really lucked out. Kemal was friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive and patiently managed the complexities of my building's strict construction requirements. Ben and Darrel did fantastic work, completing the job briskly and perfectly. They were friendly and answered all my questions along the way. I will not hesitate to reach out to Kemal for any future work and you shouldn't either. 100% recommend.

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

Very happy with the work Tweaks & Finishes did. We've used them multiple times to hang lamps, switch out fixtures, and switch out switches. They were easy to get a hold of, easy to schedule, and kept us informed of what they were doing as they were doing it. They made some recommendations for our fixtures and switches to work more efficiently. They completed the work quickly and professionally. Will continue to use them for any electrical work.

Had an awesome experience with Jake. I got into some trouble trying to swap out a light fixture and created a bit of a wiring mess for myself that he was able to skillfully clean up. He was able to go pop out and buy a replacement light fixture that would fit my junction box and install that too. While he was at my house he added a plug to a closet that we had been wanting installed since we moved in. Super efficient work, very pleasant interactions, reasonable pricing- I will definitely be calling Jake up again for future work.

We were very pleased with Blacklite Electric's service and would recommend this company for any projects (Large or small).  Neville was professional, a knowledgeable electrician, arrived on-time, and very polite.  We would definitely use them again, if we have any other electrical problems.  Below is a list of electrical issues we had and was fixed by Neville in a couple of hours.  He also provided an estimate the next day on other issues that was not a priority to fix at the time.  

1) Ceiling fan switch not working properly. It would turn on when it wanted to??

2) Wall sconce light fixture. Same issue, it would turn on when it wanted to??

The 5 star reviews of Kinetic are real. I found them because of the high Yelp reviews after having a strange problem where half of my kitchen was out of power. From the very first call, the team at Kinetic was excellent! The dispatcher was so pleasant and they were able to send someone out immediately... a big save considering my fridge was without power. The crew member that showed up was extremely professional. Even though my house was all ripped up (we are redoing floors) he wore booties to not track any additional mess. He got right to work and within 45 minutes we were back on! He explained the issue to me very clearly (no ground on the ceiling fan, who knew?!) and answered all my questions. No gimmicks here, just a great company.

I had 3 people come out for discussions on our project and Tom came up with great recommendations for outdoor installation of lights and fixed some landscaping spotlights. He was reliable, helped pick out products and did a great job.  I'd definitely recommend him and will use him for future projects.

Wonderful communication and service from Frank and his father. We couldn't be happier with the installation of our lights, switches, and other necessary repairs. Would highly recommend them for your future home needs.

Alex responded to my posting quickly, was clear on costs, and came out at 8am the following day as promised. I gave wrong information on parts and he was ready with solutions to salvage the job and gave great advice. Would definitely hire again.

The Fixer sent Jeff to look at and assess replacement of an access door in my condo.Once there, I asked him to assemble a box spring and hang my TV . I was out of town when the work was performed. Jeff came as promised and contacted me. He was a clear communicator, accessed the price and completed the job. He texted the finish photos.
They have a user friendly web sight where you can see the details of your job and pay your Bill. They charge 119. Per hour. If you have them out only to assess the job, it is 119. If you use them , the money goes towards completion of the job.
I would definitely use them again, prompt, friendly and professional.
