Best Electricians in Illinois

Very happy with AC/DC, Stephan, his work, follow up and pricing.  We needed to update some old lights and failed wiring in our practice.  First, we reached out to a number of electricians requesting estimates.  Stephan was quick to respond and offered a convenient time to meet.  His estimate was thorough, clear, and fair.  He recommended a great solution and timetable. Within a short few days  he was able to do the work in a timely, quick and professional way.  He even did some touch up painting around the newly installed exterior lights.  The job site was also cleaned and left in perfect condition.  The job looked great except for one of the back security lights it seems that the inside wiring was faulty and did not provide power.  Stephan was quick to follow up and came right out to find and fix the problem.  We couldn't be happier or give a higher recommendation to Stephan and AC/DC Electric.

This is the third time we have used Sims & Sons for electrical work. Every time has been a very smooth, positive experience. Darryl and his team are very professional. They don't waste yours or their time. Once a problem has been fixed by Sims and sons we don't have to worry about it again.

Miguel, from T & D,  came to our condo to repair a water heater's 230 volt circuit switch in our utilities closet. He was on time, courteous, and took appropriate Covid safety measures. As I was without hot water, they made a special effort to get the work done in less than 24 hours after I initially called.  Miguel worked quickly to successfully replaced the switch. As with the first time I used T & D, the work was done professionally and in a courteous manner. The cost was very reasonable. I feel fortunate to have found a great electrical service and will definitely use them again as needs arise.

Ted and Tom gave a reasonable estimate based on the scope of work I provided (outlets not working after a DIY mishap). They were able to quickly make the repair and explain the problems found. They also addressed a separate grounding/shared circuit issue they found. The additional charges for the increase in scope/time was very reasonable.

Would recommend them if you have residential electrical wiring issues.

This was the second visit from Joe. This time it was an additional light and switch I needed installed in a closet.  Joe came out less than 24 hours later, had everything required for the installation, and very quickly had the service run and the switch and light installed.  I highly recommend Joe for any electrical work in your home.

I reached out via Yelp on a Friday, and Chris came out on Saturday to take a look and provide an estimate (work across two units in our multi-family building). His prices were reasonable and we were able to get scheduled within a few days. He and his team did high quality work very efficiently. We'll definitely call him next time we need electrical help!

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!

My husband Tony contacted Ryan yesterday regarding a partial power outage at my mother's home the night before. Tony met him there and he checked the electrical service box. He determined there was a problem with the existing wiring and promptly traced, found and repaired the source of  intermittent interruptions.
He solved a complex wiring system issue with professional expertise.
We highly recommend Ryan should you require any electrical work.
He is our Go To Guy!
Thanks again Ryan.

My electrician from Highlights showed up 31 minutes after I called them and was nothing but professional and friendly! He wore a mask and booties the whole time so it felt very COVID safe.

He was quick to diagnosis the problem with my smart switches and come up with a solution and even went above and beyond to recommend to me the brand of switch he prefers and showed me the exact Amazon page to purchase from.

All around good experience and I will definitely call on them again!

Great job all the way around!!! Excellent work, fantastic attention to detail. Am definitely going to hire again.

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.

Highly recommend Jake and his team for electrical projects large and small. Early on during COVID he installed a new outlet so we could relocate a desk and while there provided some options for adding light to our dimly lit basement. We finally contacted him for the basement work and he responded right away and was able to come within a few days. The basement looks fantastic and Jake went out of his way making multiple trips to stores looking for hard to find parts. Fair prices and high quality work!

These guys are fantastic!  We had a relatively straightforward electrical project but I am both clumsy and less than handy, which seems to be the perfect formula for electrocution.  Luckily, Neville responded to my phone call looking for a quote within 15 minutes.  Sent a couple pictures of the light we needed installed and the location, and he gave me a quote and availability right away.  Easy, polite, wonderful.  

Neville stayed in touch throughout the day with text updates on when our electrician, Johnny, would arrive.  He was right on time, courteous, friendly, and a great technician.  He patiently dealt with my requests to see the light at various cord lengths, and finished the project in no more than ten minutes.  Apparently the bulb I purchased was not compatible with the dimmer switch for the light, and he quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem.

Johnny's a great guy and a great electrician, and Neville was responsive, polite, and professional throughout the whole process.  I would highly highly recommend these guys for any home project.  I will definitely hire them again.  

Thanks Johnny and Neville!!

The latest heavy snowfall ripped the utility pole off the side of my house, along with live power lines.  Yikes.  After ComEd refused to do anything and the Fire Department cordoned off the area with yellow hazard tape, I had to find an electrician on an emergency basis who was able to put it all back together without anyone getting electrocuted.  I soon found out that not every electrician works with live power lines.  But then I called Kinetic Energy.  They didn't blink.  They sent over a team immediately.  The men worked for hours in the bitter cold without complaint and did a great job.  We are very grateful to them and strongly recommend them!

Could not recommend a better electrician!

I had a desire to install ceiling recessed lights and ceiling fans in a few rooms for some time. After doing some research on Yelp, I found Tom and gave him a call. We were able to set up a in-person consultation soon after, where he walked me through the options for recessed LED lights (4in vs 6in) and spacing of said lights. We agreed on an overall plan and start date.

During the project, Tom and his men were timely, clean, and very efficient in their work. They carefully calculated and marked out the placement of the lights and fan on the ceiling in each room for my approval before starting to cut into the drywall. In the end, they had to cut into a surprisingly small amount of the drywall to put everything together. In the two places in each room that they did have to open up the wall, they carefully replaced the drywall, saving me from having to make any large patches before repainting.

I wanted to use a particular smart dimming switch (Brilliant), but it was backordered and did not arrive in time. Tom hooked up everything using temporary switches and came back later to finish the job once they arrived.

Overall, I would definitely use Tom and his men again! I have a couple other projects around the house I've been thinking of (electric car charger, exterior light, replacing track lighting with more recessed lights, etc.) and plan to use Tom for these projects in the future!

Frank is very professional.  Showed up when he said he would, explained what he was doing, and even provided a lower price than what he first quoted.  I will definitely call him again for any electrical job.  Highly recommend!

Pros: responsive, punctual, honest, respectful of my home, fair pricing
Cons: none found
Alex did a great job replacing a broken switch. He responded quickly to my initial request and was fast in communicating throughout the scheduling process. We are very happy with the quality of work.
We'll likely have to have most of our old wiring replaced and are looking forward to have Alex and his team back. Seems to be a newer company, and I'm glad we took a chance on them.

Fixer is amazing.  They can do anything, and always do it well with a smile!!  I so very much appreciate having help with things I can't do or don't think I can do well ... And I know that it will be a job well done.
