Best Electricians in Illinois

Stefan was fantastic from start to finish. What impressed me most is his attention to communication. Whenever I had a question about the work to be done prior to his arrival, he responded by text within 2 minutes. I never felt left in the dark. As he was completing the work, which was not straightforward and resulted in a need to change course, he was exuded confidence that everything would work out. There was no whining or complaining. He is so very pleasant and I would not hesitate to call him if you need electrical work. I am happy to have found someone like Stefan who is reliable and competent!

I contacted Sims and Sons to address an electrical issue with one of my major appliances. Darrell, the owner responded and was able to assist me right away. He is very knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable while he was working at my house. I highly recommend!

Rodrigo, the electrician, arrived promptly and was very pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable. I had 2 recessed lights that were not working. He was able to fix one while here, and for the other, he will have to order a part and return. The cost was very reasonable and the whole experience a good one.

This man has no customer service nor does he listen. He is always in a hurry to finish no matter the look. If I could give a zero I would.

Joe is still the absolute best electrician around! If you have an older home (ours are over 100+) and have knob and wire he will know how to take care of  it.  He's installed numerous ceiling fans, ran an outlet to directly behind our mounted tv to hid the cords and most recently added an additional breaker.  His pricing can't be beat and he's fast, trustworthy and all around good guy.  

In the future I plan on hiring him again to instal an electric power supply for our smart car - something he's getting more and more jobs doing as of late.

Don't hesitate to hire him!

Christian was responsive and professional. He fixed the issue quickly and within 24 hours of requesting the quote on Yelp.

Totally recommend if you're in need of any electrical jobs. Edward was great about providing a fair and accurate estimate. Esteban was on time, very professional and did a great job in installing our new living room light fixture. Job required him to move and center a new box on our sloped/vaulted ceilings. Also appreciated the follow-up call to make sure we were satisfied. Couldn't be happier!!!

Thorough Professional.

We came to Ryan with a maddening intermittent problem: electricity in parts of a house would turn itself off and then turn itself back on, some highly variable amount of time later.  Some times, hours later.  With this happening more than once a day, the house was basically unlivable.

Ryan was able to quickly track down the problem and, even though it was close to the end of a normal business day, he worked well past that to procure the replacement part and install it that same day.

It's been a week with no further incident, so I'm convinced he found the root cause, and I'm as happy as I can be.

This is an all-around great company (efficient, licensed, fairly priced), but this review is for Jimmy and the office staff in particular. Jimmy has replaced a ton of old wiring in my home. He's punctual, respectful, straightforward, and has done great work around here. The office staff is great too - they return my calls quickly and scheduling is unusually simple.

Rogelio did a good job on our building. Repaired some outlets, in the apartment, garage, and outside of the building. He shared photos of his progress. We talk over the phone to clarify details and got a quote on the spot for additional work that was necessary and was finished the same day after getting the parts needed.
He is also bilingual, what helps communicating easier for a larger population group.
All good overall.

Jose and Rodney were absolutely great to work with. Not only did they do an amazing job, but it was all for a great price. They were tasked with replacing our track lighting with recessed lights, as well as, patching any holes and repainting our entire ceiling. We are beyond satisfied with their work and would recommend them to anyone who needed any sort of electrical or painting work done.

Jake came by to install our ventilation fan and a new bathroom vanity. He was super friendly, quick, and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

Worst service experience ever. I called this place today and just got a texy back saying in meeting can't talk....um ok. That's cool.

Texted him saying I needed help fast and that my lights in kitchen and that I read all his amazing reviews on Yelp.com and I was calling him first based on the reviews.

I heard nothing.....this was 2pm.

At 3pm, I asked if he was still in a meeting. Nothing.

I called Mr. Mighty Electric who was helpful and got here reasonably fast...and it's not that I needed someone super fast....a response would be nice.

Anyway, so I texted again at 5:30pm, saying hello? ...nothing until around 6pm where the dude is telling me he can't do a voice call but can just text me and help me troubleshoot. Um...no. If that was what I needed, I have Google and YouTube for that. I called because I needed someone to come here. I guess I was not worth it.

I am going to make this as short as possible without skimping on the important details.

Purchased a home in Forest Park which required some outdoor electrical work to be completed to be in compliance with the Village Inspector's requirements. It is my understanding that this is very basic work and most older homes in the Village require this work upon sale.
Hired Kinetic based on recommendation from my agent and Yelp/Facebook/Nextdoor reviews. The prior owner received a quote of $1200 for the work from another company - I sent that estimate to Kinetic and asked if they could match it. They sent out someone to take a look and afterwards quoted me at $1400 via email. I agreed to the $1400 (also via email) as the company was so highly rated and I wanted it to be done correctly.
Sequence of events:
1. Work was performed - required the power to be out from 8am to around 5pm on a weekday.
2. Village inspector and Kinetic rep returned to do the post-work inspection. The work failed inspection. I'm not exactly sure how you fail inspection on a routine job.
3. They came back on a Saturday morning to correct the work. Re-inspection occurred 4 days later and it passed. I was told more than once that they would be reducing the bill due to my pain and suffering - having failed inspection and because we had to have our power out for another 3 hours to have the issue corrected. At this point I was still considering a 3/5 review as the rep was very apologetic about this whole mess and came out on a weekend as we are WFH during the week and need power.
4. Received the invoice totaling $1712 due after a $250 pain and suffering discount. Emailed them back as I'm not sure how $1400 became $1,962 when it was supposed to be less than the original estimate for my trouble. They said they had a conversation with my husband about additional charges? No way in hell that happened. Nonetheless, they said it happened when the in person estimate was made. However, we received the written estimate for $1400 after the in person estimate. Anything that was (or wasn't) discussed should have been reflected in the written estimate.
5. They agreed to $1400 to put this job behind us and we paid it so I could be done with the mess as well.
I have all of this in writing and I keep meticulous notes on anything that I pay for. I didn't even want to waste any more keystrokes on this, but since I hired them partially based on Yelp reviews, I felt that I needed to share my experience. I am giving them 2 stars only because everyone was pretty pleasant. Just wish it would have turned out better.

They also drilled a large screw through my newly-finished porch. No warning on that. Picture attached.

Tom installed a Tesla rapid charger in our garage yesterday. He did this with professionalism and expertise. I will hire him again for future electrical needs.

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.

These guys are great - friendly, affordable, professional.  Highly recommended.

We discovered a leak in a pipe from our kitchen sink on a Sunday, submitted a work request online that evening, and it was fixed on Monday.  He had a replacement part on him and we were charged only for the hour visit.

Additionally, Edgar was experienced and professional and was able to fix an issue with our master bathroom faucet within the hour, as well.

The online request form does require that you provide a CC number, and while we did so with trepidation, it all worked out find and indeed made  the payment process seamless when the work was completed.  They are a very user friendly high tech operation - everything done online or via text.  

If we encounter other household repair issues in the future we will certainly consider reusing Fixer.
