Best Electricians in Illinois

I hired Stefan to install a 240v outlet in my garage, replace some faulty GFCI outlets and install a few smart switches. He was responsive, transparent and efficient. The 240v outlet required a breaker which wasn't readily available but he did the research and found it a distant home depot which added incremental hours to job. He continued to maintain a positive attitude throughout the process and finished the job during the same day.

Highly recommend his services!!

We just bought a 1924 bungalow that had a panel from 1967, wasn't grounded, and needed to be moved to the side of the house from under the porch. Darrell was no-nonsense, got us scheduled within a week of his assessment visit (when other companies were telling us it would be months before they could get us in). Anel then came out with an awesome team (Eli, Graham, and Delvin), and knocked out the big job in one day. So friendly, fast, knowledgeable, and competent! Hire these guys!

This company is amazing! I never yelp but this company deserves it. My power was out for a total of three days and I couldn't find anyone to help me. Comed confirmed my electricity had not been shut off but wouldn't send anyone out because it was only my unit in the building that was out. My landlord wouldn't help me, she actually answered one of my calls and hung up on me. I should probably mention that I am being kicked out because she saw my dog a couple of weeks ago. (Everyone in this building has a dog) I didn't even know it was a problem. I spent two entire days contacting people trying to figure this out. I hired one electrician who looked at my meter and said Comed DID have my power shut off and still charged me for being here 2 minutes. I called Comed for the 20th time pleading with them to send someone out. Finally a guy came, he informed me it was not shut off that it was just an uncommon looking lock on the meter. He investigated further, removed the cover behind the breakers and discovered someone had intentionally cut my wires ( I believe 100% the landlord had this done to me as I have no problems with my neighbors and my storage unit was also broken into) After all of this I started calling electricians again. I called a ton of them, most didn't answer, some were to expensive, and all of the ones I talked to told me they could be here in a day or two. I needed someone today, it had already been 3 days. That's when really far down on the yelp list I found T&D. Someone answered immediately, a very nice lady named Haley. I told her I needed someone as soon as possible, she said she'd check to see if someone would be in my area today and call me back. She called back a little later saying someone could be here in 30 minutes and that they charged $120 for the first hour (very reasonable compared to other quotes I got) Then Fermin showed up he looked at the problem and had it fixed in 15 minutes and was very nice and professional. FINALLY I HAD POWER!!!!! I wish I would of called them much sooner but they are so far down on the list when you search electricians on yelp. They should be at the top. They are quick, cheap, professional and best of all someone actually answers the phone when you call. I would recommend them to anyone who needs an electrician!

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.

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

Quick reliable professional and reasonable I will recommend and use them in the future

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.

They did an amazing job installing recessed lighting in our condo. They were able to install quickly, and were extremely clean. Christobal and Jerardo  did great work installing. Would definitely 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

These guys are great! They were referred to us and they are great for all kinds of jobs. We originally used them for various electrical work such as changing and updating electrical boxes, to light fixtures, to moving, replacing and rerouting outlets and switches. We were looking to knock out a wall in our kitchen and we had called them for the electrical part of it and turns out they were able to do the carpentry work as well!!  We had them come and see the space and they were very respectful of our belongings. Covered everything super nicely and helped us move some of the things they were afraid could possibly get damaged. Very trust worthy, we left them alone in our home for 90% of the project, and they cleaned up after every time they came. They did a nice job painting the living room as well and all for a great price!! I would definitely recommend them!!

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!

Neville is truly a one-of-a-kind electrician. He's humble, transparent, responsive, and efficient with his work and approach. A combination of qualities that's so often hard to find.

No job is too big or small. From addressing significant wiring issues in older homes, to replacing faulty outlets, he's the specialist to count on.

Can't recommend him enough!!

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!

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!

Wonderful communication and service from Frank and his father. We couldn't be happier with the installation of our lights, switches, and other necessary repairs. Would highly recommend them for your future home needs.

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.

Truly a garbage company.

You would think that a company offering repair services at a set price per hour and easy scheduling would be a dream come true. Absolutely not. I booked Fixer to do multiple repairs on my home as I recently moved to another state and was preparing my home for a new tenant. The Fixer that was assigned to my home was: 1) awful at communication to my property manager 2) bypassed nearby hardware stores and took over an hour to shop which cost me $140 alone. 3) I had to cancel the other jobs I scheduled because at the rate he was going the 1-2 hr estimation jumped to 5-6 hrs which would've cost more than originally planned 4) the contractor disclosed to my property manager that he was unlicensed (Fixer advertises on their website that contractors were licensed) 5) Didn't even finish the 1 job he had before he left.

I was charged nearly $440 for unfinished work for 1 job. It wasn't until I reached out to Fixer via email to figure what actually happened since it wasn't communicated. They explained to me that it was actually a two-day job and the Fixer would have to return. When were they going to tell me that? And I booked this service on that particular day for a reason because of the limited availability to have someone on-site for hours while we're not there. They gave me two options after I expressed my dissatisfaction and frustration: 1) they'll charge me a prorated rate for the unfinished work or 2) they'll come back at another time to finish the work and I won't be charged for the 2nd day which I really didn't have a choice but to choose. I couldn't leave the work unfinished or I'd have to find and pay someone else to finish their trash work on top of paying Fixer.

The only ways to speak with this company is via text or email. If you call the number they ask you to text, it only gives you an option to leave a message and never an opportunity to speak to a representative. The customer service is truly ridiculous. Finally, when I could have someone on-site for a full day, I went to schedule a time to have the work completed and was told I had to pay the full amount prior to having a Fixer return to finish what they originally left undone! They are scheduled to come in a few weeks and I pray to God that my experience isn't as awful as the first.

Maybe my experience was an one-off but I would never ever utilize this company's services again after this job is complete. Ever.
