Best Electricians in Illinois

Don't think twice, just hire AC/DC. Stefan provided the lowest quote and was able to come out the very next day. He was extremely prompt and communicative. We had an issue with the ladder being too short, but he found a ladder that would work, was back the very next day and got the job done. I could not be more pleased with his work, and will definitely call him again next time.

guys came out an made my EV charger code compliant

great work - not cheap but competent and know what theyre doing

Initially gave them a 1-star rating after they refused to give any idea of cost, unless I paid $135 to get a quote. This sounded outrageous and I complained; the owner called me and arranged a time to come out and quote the work. He was nice and very reasonable. I agreed to the price and work was done timely and professionally. Star rating adjusted.

Ted is great! Just hooked up my dryer in 15 minutes after 2 weeks of dealing with the store we bought it from. Called him and an hour later he was here. Definitely will be using him again.

Absolutely best electrician I've ever hired! I am currently working on a kitchen/office remodel and Joe did a great job with everything. He installed can lights, outlets, switches, and so much more. At first I thought it was a small job, but then it led to a larger project. He was on time every day and was always able to squeeze me into his busy schedule. Worked fast but correctly. He really knows his stuff. I will call him again for all my future electrical needs! :-)  A++ in my book. 6 stars if I could.

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

So I reached out to this company through Yelp about a month ago.
At first they seemed quick to respond and willing to help but I still do not have a response for the work I wanted done.

A gentleman contacted me and asked a few questions and then gave me a time and date to come look at the house for estimates. He was late to the appoint by nearly an hour due to a car appointment running over longer than expected.

He gave me some solid advice saying to look into my internet provide to get the work installed (I did, but tried again with no luck). I did appreciate the recommendation. I thought it was sweet.

After researching my internet provider again. I texted that same gentleman about getting work done.
No response. I texted him again about 2 days later only to be given a number of someone else because he was out of town.

I called the number and left a voicemail only to be never contacted. You win some you lose some.

Highly recommend Ryan.  He is responsive, skilled, friendly, and reasonably priced.

I had a malfunctioning outdoor light fixture.  Ryan came the same day as my call, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it quickly.  He was very friendly and we had a nice chat about life as he worked.  He is a breath of fresh air in a world where dealing with contractors is generally pretty darn irritating.

The technician did a great job and was very helpful and arrived on time. The people I spoke with in the office made it easy to get the appointment scheduled and handle payment. Overall, they provided great service and were able to fix my problem outlet when I couldn't. Would 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

Rodney and Jose are a great team. The removed a light fixture from a closet header, completed the demo of closet header and moved a slight switch. And then patched the drywall and prepped for paint. So great this duo can complete both the electrical and the drywall repair. Wrapped in one day.

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.

Neville was the most expensive estimate out of the three that I got. However I liked his demeanor and professionalism far more than the other two electricians so we came to an agreement on the price and scheduled a date to start. I have a house built in the 50's and needed a lot of new work put in and old work beefed up. Neville was not able to start on the agreed upon date but communicated with me well and started the next day.
It should be noted that at least for my job, Neville just came on the morning of the first day to go over the work and on the last day to check it out. Two other electricians did the actual work. Johnny was great, polite, quiet, and clean. The other electrician was nice and did a good job but lacked some of the professionalism shown by Neville and Johnny. You could describe him as a bull in a china shop. Lucky for us, most of the work was in the attic and unfinished basement, so we didn't have to worry about any damage to our furniture etc.
All in all the work took 3 days and was completed on time and at slightly less than the agreed upon price. I could have got the work done for less, but felt more comfortable with Neville.

Amazing service! If I can give them more stars I would! This was the best experience ever. Being a first time home buyer, Danny was amazing. He made it so easy and was so nice. This company provided fast service and some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. If you are looking for some work done, look no longer!

Honest, transparent about costs, and delivered excellent work on time for installing an electric car charger. He looked up specs on the car company website, going the extra mile to ensure he did the best work.

Ted changed out fixtures throughout our house, including a difficult chandelier in our dining room. He also fixed a hot outlet and looked at our garage electrical. He was on time, fairly priced, and did great work. We'll be using him again.

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 folks are fabulous! Last fall they worked on my tub faucet leak. It was a tough job. Recently, the leak came back. Today Steven S. did an amazing job and solved the problem. Best of all, I was not charged. That, my friends, is how you treat your customers. Thanks, Fixer and thanks, Steven! You all are the best!
