Best Electricians in Illinois

Chose AC/DC based on Yelp reviews when we were looking to replace our kitchen cabinet puck lights with LED lighting and we're glad we did!  Stefan was great - responded quickly to our inquiry, communicated well about scheduling the installation, quoted a price and job duration which were spot on, and showed up on time.  He put in LED lighting similar to what was on his website (which is worth checking out to get a sense of options).  He was professional, no-nonsense, and really easy to work with.  We're likely to have other lighting and electrical needs for our condo and we will not hesitate to call on Stefan and AC/DC Electrical Construction.

We needed a 4-prong, 220V plug to accommodate a new washer and dryer. Darrell responded promptly, rescheduled when were not available, and completed the job efficiently and to a high standard. As a bonus, he helped us move out the old units. Very responsive, and we were very pleased with the work.

T & D was great for some basic electrical work in our home. They were very responsive, easy to communicate with, and got the job done quickly. I found them on Yelp and hired them based on their ratings, and would definitely use them again.
Marianne, Marcus, and Greg were all a pleasure to work with.

Unfortunately my house is out of his service area, but his responsiveness was excellent.  Super quick reply time.

Quality at affordable prices. Had him do several things including installation and fixing some other electrical issues. Other places quoted weeks to come out, he completed the job in under 7 days. Will definitely call for all future electrical work.

Chris was AMAZING! He was super reliable and took such great care in my forever home. He has come back twice and each time he has exceeded my expectations and I've already given his info to many friends who could use some electrical work. He hung 3  huge chandeliers with care and even made one work that didn't come with the parts needed from the manufacturer. He then hung an additional 6 other lights and even changed all my lightbulbs so they matched in color!

He also came back and hung two tvs for me the second visit which I can assure you will not be his last!

Thank you Chris and team for amazing and fast service  and being such a great person overall!

Appreciate you and your team!  See you soon!

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.

Had some electrical troubles in our new house we needed fixed and addressed. Ryan was out at my house within an hour of calling him. Very professional, personable, and knowledgeable. He took the time to not only do a thorough job but explain everything he did each step of the way. Was quite a long project as we couldn't locate the problem immediately, but after some troubleshooting and enjoyable conversation, he located the problem and solved it. I don't know anything about electrician pricing but was told from my family who knows a thing or two about the business that his pricing was great and extremely fair for the job he did the length of time it took. Would highly recommend. Safe to say I've found my electrician for any future needs I may have. Thanks again Ryan, pleasure getting to know you.

A couple of years back, I had the worst customer service with an electricity company and ended up contacting Highlights Chicago as an afterthought. I ALWAYS THINK ABOUT HOW I LUCKED OUT WITH THAT! Thank goodness for terrible service because I don't think I would've kept going down my list of contractors to call Highlights Chicago. I have consistently been hiring Highlights Chicago ever since. I'm no longer on the condo board, but when I needed an electrical job done on my own dime, I insisted on hiring them.

Even when my insurance company contacted me with a deductible rate and getting estimates from a few companies, I contacted one! I didn't get a response for a couple of days, so I blew up their phone calling and left a message. I didn't care what anybody else's estimate I was. I have hired them at least four times and know I can count on their work. (I've worked with at least five different guys. There was one guy who was a little snippy but did a good job on electric work. I asked for him to not return, but 99% of the time, I like the rest and would be happy to see them again.)

I didn't know the two guys who were at my front door this time though. I felt bad because I'd stopped to grab something to eat while running errands and was about 15 minutes late for their pickup window. Jogging back with my dog, I was relieved that they didn't leave. Both guys (my apologies because although one of them nailed my name, I forgot to ask for theirs) were informative, polite, professional, worked quickly and both helped me carry out the items that were removed. When I bluntly asked whether it was worth replacing the items or removing them, their answer was in alignment with safety versus just making more money. THAT WOULD MAKE ME HIRE HC EVEN QUICKER and request those two guys again.

And as is ALWAYS the case, Kemal was there to help me through service and pricing the whole time. Love this team. Can't say enough kind things about them. And they were half the price of my deductible, so money was saved and the insurance claim wasn't needed. Win win!

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.

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!!

Great prices, quick work, friendly guy. Called 4 other electricians and they all quoted me about $100-200 for the same job. Definitely recommend.

I was inquiring about a bathroom remodel and Blacklite replied promptly with the services they provide. Thank you.

We've used Kinetic Energy for some small jobs and liked them very much.  Just recently we hired them to (1) to remove an existing dual bulb motion sensor floodlight and then, in it's place, set up a Ring-brand motion sensor with a camera and floodlights on the alley side of our garage, and (2) install a Ring-brand doorbell camera/motion sensor on our front door.  The work included making sure both units were connected to our WiFi and working properly.  We got an estimate for the work weeks before we could get on the schedule.  Today we got the invoice for the completed work, and it was exactly the same amount as the estimate.  The installer Steve was very friendly, efficient, explained well what he was doing and didn't leave so much as a speck of dust when he was done.  This is an Oak Park business, owned by Oak Park residents.  SHOP LOCAL!

Tom and his crew do such great work! Highly recommend them. They installed 4 outdoor outlets in our yard and also trenched wires underground so they were no longer exposed to the elements. They were on time, flexible, and just care about doing the job right. Tom is a really nice guy who walks you through all the work ahead of time. Don't hesitate to reach out to him!

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.

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.
