Best Electricians in Illinois
Another great install. He installed two bathroom fans an six recessed ceiling lights in the family room. Excellent work and very professional. Arrived on time and did the work on budget. Highly recommend their service.

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!

Im totally shocked by the professionalism of T&D. I was totally electrified when I called their number and a live person answered the phone, I was able to schedule an estimate for the next day, received a quote about 8 hours after, called the same phone number again and booked the installation to happen immediately. I got a charge out of the payment process, super easy and the quality of the work was really high. The electrician cleaned up after all the work, it was if a lightning bolt busted into the house and fixed all of our problems, leaving behind a faint scent of victory. Before calling T&D, I tried to reach several electricians who never returned my calls or were booked out for weeks, good for them but bad for me, it really took the wind out of my sails (if I only had an electrician to fix my motor).

I had Ted out to my house in La Grange Park to troubleshoot a couple of outlets that had stopped working. I am somewhat technical myself, and was able to diagnose the problem, but not locate it. That's when I texted Ted. Yes, you can text him directly. I don't know about you, but I thought that was a great feature; very convenient! So anyway, Ted came out on Monday (I'd originally reached out to him on a Sunday, and while he doesn't do Sunday housecalls (totally understandable) he DID respond to me on Sunday right away, and we set up a time for the next day. He arrived on time, and I had told him what I had done to investigate (I'd determined that it was a broken neutral somewhere in the conduit feeding these two kitchen outlets, but I couldn't find the break). He was patient and helpful as I was explaining all of this, and agreed with my assessment. Since I was curious, I watched him while he worked, and he explained what he was doing the whole time, because he knew I was interested. While we were discussing this, we also talked about some other improvements that we could make to the electrical at my house (balancing circuits between the two hot feeds coming into my house, and stuck around while I played with different pieces of equipment (I have a lot of computers ;p ) to see how we could save on my power bills. After we did that, I noticed that my power bills have decreased by about 10%! He also was willing to stick around and install an motion-sensing light switch that I had been unable to get to work properly. All of this extra stuff was not discussed ahead of time, but he was willing to take the extra time to help me out. I have found my electrician for all my future needs. Ted is great, you should call (or text!) him today!

Joe was great! He was on time and extremely responsive throughout my communication with him. I needed a simple light installed in an awkward place and he was able to quickly install it and did so at a very reasonable price. Other electricians stated that I needed to re-wire everything, but he was able to come in and do the job efficiently and at a great price. I highly recommend!

For all you single women, first time homeowners, who are getting ripped off out there, search no more. Chris is an honest professional. He's done mutliple jobs at my place now and trust me, I've searched the quotes. His work is clean, up to code, and even educates me on the do's and don'ts. For me, this goes a long way. His communication is exceptional, his thoroughness is easily visible, and he keeps it real. when you find a good contractor you share him, because there are a lot of contractors out there that are so demanding and the job is total trash ass. That's the worst.

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!

We are in the process of tearing down a house we recently purchased, and hired Rogelio at Alex Electrical to cut the main electrical line from the pole to the house, as well as remove the cable lines, the electric meter, and the electric box in the house. Rogelio was extremely knowledgeable, very responsive, professional, and got the job done in less time than the estimate. He also mentioned that his company installs outlets, light fixtures, etc. We will definitely be hiring him again in the future for any electrical needs we have. Thank you, Rogelio.

After attempting to install a new light fixture myself I ran into an electrical road block. Jose of Tweaks & Finishes responded promptly to my request for an estimate, and scheduled the service call for the same day! Jose, accompanied by Rodney arrived on time, and treated me and my home with such care and respect. Jose was extremely knowledgeable, and quickly diagnosed my electrical problem-explaining the issue(s) found along the way. A quick replacement of a burnt out dimmer switch restored my lighting, and mended the mess I created. Jose and Rodney also cleaned up the wires behind my many wall switches which they found to be a safety hazard, and installed my new ceiling light-all at a reasonable price within my budget. Both gentlemen were kind, professional, and mindful-cleaning up after any small mess that was made. I am thankful to have found Tweaks & Finishes, I am looking forward to using them again in the future for a painting project. Many thanks to Jose and Rodney!

We have used Jake over the years for all of our electrical needs. He is absolutely amazing and always works incredibly hard and fast. If you are looking for surround sound, new canned lighting, rewiring or all of the above, he is 100% the man for the job!

Had two small electrical tasks. Contacted Neville who responded quickly and agreed to schedule the work the next day. The electrician arrived during the allotted time and performed the work quickly for the agreed fee. Very pleased with the experience.

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.

I recently hired this electrician to install a Ring doorbell in my home and I couldn't be happier with his work! He was very professional, promptly arrived on time, and was able to install the device quickly without any problems. He even took the time to explain how the doorbell works and answer any questions I had. The installation itself was seamless and the doorbell works perfectly. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and dedication to providing top-notch service. I would highly recommend this electrician to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled professional. Top-notch service and a true 5-star experience! Thank you, Tom!

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.

Issue with fixer is that schedulers and concierge have no idea how long tasks take. My fixer scheduled for 3:30 came at 7:00. They cannot actually give you an accurate time.
Unfortunately the problem with smoke detector was not fixed. Simple issue of battery replacement was too high to reach. He left and one hour later beeping started again. Disappointing experience. So after $94, I have to hire an actual electrician.
