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!

Darrell and his team are the gold standard in my eyes. They are professional, transparent, and, most importantly, they will work with you in all three stages of the service call, starting with clearly outlining the problem, going through various options, and lastly, being willing to work with you if unforeseen issues arise. This is a company I highly recommend to anyone getting (for me ) plumbing services done, but I am sure the electrical side is handled with the same level of professionalism. Sims and Sons made a difficult situation for me easier to handle; This company is definitely on my speed dial.

Thanks, Darell, Mike & Alex

Most helpful and courteous on phone when scheduling appointment.  Took only two days for electrician David to come out.  He was prompt, courteous and repaired problems within less than an hour.  Prices reasonable for electrician and no trip charge.

Did great work at a fair price. Did exactly what he promised to. Finished the project on time. I recommend him to family members and would definitely use again.

Joe arrived right on time.  He was prepared for the job and only had to go to his truck once for additional parts.  He was efficient, the job was done well and the price was reasonable.  I would highly recommend Joe for your electric needs.

Chris was AMAZING! He was super reliable and took such great care in my forever home. He has come back twice and each time he has exceeded my expectations and I've already given his info to many friends who could use some electrical work. He hung 3  huge chandeliers with care and even made one work that didn't come with the parts needed from the manufacturer. He then hung an additional 6 other lights and even changed all my lightbulbs so they matched in color!

He also came back and hung two tvs for me the second visit which I can assure you will not be his last!

Thank you Chris and team for amazing and fast service  and being such a great person overall!

Appreciate you and your team!  See you soon!

I live in a real old house in Oak Park, tried to replace the possibly just as old light fixture on the porch myself and ran into a lot of rust and stripped wires and stuff I was not expecting so I knew I needed professional help. Edward at Greenline had Esteban out here in just a couple of days (would've been even sooner if I was available) and the job took 15 minutes and it looks great!

Ryan was great to work with. He was on time and very transparent on what he was doing and what the cost would be. Furthermore he had me inspect the work afterwards to make sure I was satisfied. I will definitely be working with Ryan again in the future.

I searched Google for a licensed and insured Electrical contractor and read the reviews of Highlights Chicago and was very pleased with the entire experience.
Highlights followed everything I would expect as a potential customer.
* They gave a quick estimate and provided an email copy of the initial meeting
* Communication with them was excellent through phone calls and emails.
* They arrived on time and the employees knew what they were doing and how to treat my home with respect while they completed the job.
* After completion of the work not only was a review of the warranties discussed by also guaranteed my satisfaction with the work.
Most importantly Highlights was priced competitive and did not try to offer additional add on from the original estimate.

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

I reached out for some quotes on replacing an outdoor outlet on Sunday- not only was Jose super responsive, he got me scheduled for the next day! He quoted me a price that he stuck to. He and his partner Rodney are friendly, courteous, conscientious and got the job done in under 30 minutes. They were respectful of my time which I appreciate. I'm happy to have this company in my phone for any future jobs. Highly recommend!!

Recently used Urban Power to have third panel installed at my 2 flat in Logan Square and the needed infrastructure installed to house a new third meter.  I found Jake to be easy to work with. I feel all work was completed satisfactorily and in a timely manner.  I also felt the pricing was fair compared to other quotes I received.  I felt some of the other quotes I received, the companies were trying to over sell me.  Jake quoted the proper materials need to get the job done.  I would gladly use Jake again in the future and recommend him.

I never actually got to work with Blacklite, but they were extremely slow getting back to me on booking them and the whole text message only communication deal is the worst.  Check out Martini Electric if you want to work with communicative, professional and responsive electricians - that will call you back.

I continued to use Kinetic for a slew of electrical projects around my home until I moved June 2016. The projects included several repairs, the replacement of numerous lighting fixtures, and the installation of an electric baseboard heater in a finished basement. I am sure the total spent far exceeded several $k, and I am sure I got great value for my $$.

During the course of my time working with Kinetic, I met several of his crew members and came to trust each and everyone of them. But no matter what, Ted, the owner, always answered the phone, returned calls promptly, scheduled all projects, and dropped by the house often to inspect work. I will miss the reliability and craftsmanship of Kinetic. I wish them the best.

A++ in all aspects. I had great pleasure to hire Tom's company for our house project. The project included multiple rooms. Complete Bath and kitchen electrical renovation. Two bathrooms received outlets, switches, can lights and fans. The kitchen received  new can lights and outlets. Living room got new can lights. We also added wired smoke detectors throughout the house. Tom was a total professional when he came in for the estimate. Everything was explained so that there were no surprises any time during the project and he made sure that we understood the work that was going to take place. Prices were very competitive, and work was done in the time promised. Tom made sure that everything was done right, to code and left everything clean and spotless. I would definitely hire again. Highly recommended.

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.

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 needed doors cut after carpet install.  Job was completed within 24 hours of request and completed efficiently and correctly.  Nathan was professional, knowledgable, and prompt.
