Best Electricians in Illinois

If I could give more stars I would! Stefan and his staff were EXTREMELY helpful, kind, professional, and quick with the repairs that were needed in my building. I would highly recommend this company for any of your electrical needs!! They even missed Superbowl Sunday to help me out, now that's some great service!! ;) Thank you again AC/DC!

I was looking for someone to fix two electrical outlets, so went on Yelp as most would. Sims and Sons had excellent ratings, so clicked their website off Yelp. The quote option was super easy and I was astounded, yes astounded, when I received a call from them within 5 minutes! People, this is 3 days after Christmas- an incredibly busy time for electricians (and everybody else)! Darrell (owner) was upfront about pricing, gave me a quote and said they could be there within the hour.

Darrell and Enis came masked (in less than an hour), put on their little sanitary booties before working, and quickly fixed the issue while making some of the best chit chat I've ever had with repair/service people. Would highly recommend Sims and will definitely be calling them again in the future as needed!

Fast, good service, reasonable, highly recommend.  They are our new go-to for our apartment complex!

Ted promptly replied to my estimate request and we were able to set up time a few days after. We had problems replacing a new outlet due to old wiring. Ted provided the estimate and that the job would take an hour which was accurate. He also kept us informed when he was running a bit behind due to traffic. Much appreciated since other contractors aren't always like this. He did a great job replacing the outlet, provided recommendations for the old wiring system, and even let us know the value in switching to LED bulbs.I highly recommend using Ted for electrical work. I know we will call him for future jobs!

Great service and work. I highly recommend. Installed power to front of house and a chandelier.

So I just purchased a new home and having some circuit breaker issues. Found Chris on Yelp very nice guy. Very responsive. Came right out, Fix the issue under 15 minutes so I will definitely be calling him back out to finish the work, Definitely give Chris a call or give him a chance if you are having any type of issues with circuit breakers or electrical issues definitely recommend this business. Thanks, Chris

We had issues with an outdoor outlet nuisance tripping during heavy rain, even after having a new cover installed.  Unfortunately this outlet shared a circuit with our bedroom and office outlets, so the tripping caused heavy disruption.   It was particularly bad very early one morning after a stormy night, which left me scrambling at 7:15am trying to find an electrician.  Greenline answered immediately and was able to come out later that afternoon.  After some troubleshooting and exploratory work, the recommendation was to put the GCFI outlet on a dedicated circuit to prevent further disruption.  They came back the next day and did so quickly and efficiently, and even replaced the cover with a more durable one.  They also thoughtfully replaced our old and worn bedroom light switches and a scarred outlet for free - I really appreciated their thoughtfulness here.  They did all this for a very reasonable price and were easy to work with and communicative every step of the way.  I highly recommend them if you need any electrical work done!

This man arrived early and told us how to save money rather than rip us off. He shared stories about his own parents situation in a similar older home he rewired himself. Thoughtful and reasonable other electricians were higher tha his estimate by more than 700 plus. He did things right taking his time and showing us exactly what he was doing and why. It was kind of refreshhing to work with him thanks ryan my parents are happy about being able to use the aplliances they wanted so badly.

Ben and his partner did an excellent job!  They installed a dedicated line to the breaker box, exclusively for my hifi system.  My music has never sounded better!  These guys were very courteous and professional.  Highly recommended electrical  company!!!

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 highly recommend their services.

They came on time and did an excellent job installing a new outlet,  patched up the wall & painted too.

Their rates are reasonable.  Will use their services again.

I hired Jake and Urban Power to add two electrical meters and relocate the circuit breakers out of the garden unit to a common area so all tenants could have access to them at my 3-Flat property.  He is a master of his craft and did a great job providing solutions to the issues I presented and working efficiently on the install and relocation as well as managing the permitting process with Com-Ed.  He has deep experience working with rental properties and gave me some great insights to add value to the property including installing security lighting which I hired him to do as well.  I would highly recommend Jake and Urban Power for any electrical job big or small.

Neville did a great job.  Was fast, honest, and responsive.
Would call again for future projects.

Ted and his crew have been doing work on our Oak Park bungalow for a number of years. He's honest, reliable, fair, and accepts your problems as his own. I had Ted rewire a bunch of antique light fixtures for our basement. He not only got everything working, but helped figure out the best way to install to maximize functionality and beauty. He swapped out electrical fans. Installed sensor lights outside. Upgraded our amp panel. Generally, I trust that if I present Ted with a problem, he'll solve it and solve it at a reasonable rate.

TOM Electric Services is an excellent company for electrical repairs. The electricians are extremely knowledgeable and experienced. They provide great customer service and have always been able to answer questions, solve problems, and other issues with my electrical system. I highly recommend them!

Outstanding very communicative on time reliable all above in every category.  Always answers always explains what is needled and why

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.
