Best Electricians in Illinois

I used W R Tesla on finishing my basement. They were very helpful from start to finish. They were able to move all conduit out of my way to allow me to drywall ceiling, organize all electrical pipes to one side of basement with straight runs to lights and fixtures and updated my service box. He checked the rest of the house and gave suggestions which I was glad he brought to my attention.                                                                                                      
The work upstairs (in finished area) was completed and cleaned up. Never once did they leave a mess. I would call them back in a heart beat.

Chris came out in a timely manner and did some great work. I had shopped around on other referral sites for electricians in this area as I recently moved out here. Many of the other referral sites must charge an arm and a leg because they were all rip off salesman that didn't really know the job but felt comfortable overcharging. Chris is an expert in his field and I would highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable and explains his work very well. Good to find an honest expert.

Our entire house needed an electrical upgrade.  This included the panel, re-wiring, changing outlets, switches, adding lights outside and bringing house to current code.
We got our quote from Gary with D&G - he was very fair and understood the scope of work we needed.  He also explained the work to us as we did not fully understand everything that was involved with this type of upgrade.

We had the upgrade done in May 2015, the electricians that are employed by D&G are some of the nicest guys I have met.  The explained everything, answered questions and even took the time to sweep the floor!  That is an A++++ company.  They made me feel at ease the entire time and I would highly recommend them for any electrical need you have.

They will be back when we add lighting and dishwasher in the kitchen.

Called Alberts Electrical to do some work at my mothers house. She was having issues with all the outside lights not working. Albert and his son came and diagnosed the issue. Rewired all the old dangerous wiring, installed new lights fixtures, and got everything working again. They even changed out some old switches and outlets which were out of code free of charge.

Overall very happy with there work and the price. Will use them for any future needs.

Jason did an outstanding job with a variety of electrical projects at my business on the north side of Chicago. His superior attention to detail, precision with the work, and thoroughness completing each piece of the project were absolutely impressive.

I highly recommend Jason to anyone looking for a top-notch electrician!

Block By Block of Auburn Gresham visited Sneed's Hardware.  Well stocked & knowledgeable staff right in the community!

These guys installed a 30 amp outlet in my garage for EV.  They showed up on time and did a quick and excellent job.  Best of all was how they made time for my job on a Saturday morning the day before.

I had electrical panel/service upgraded and Ron and his team were excellent. They were punctual and professional. They came recommended from friends who had them do theirs too. Communication was great and they were kind enough to give me some advice for other electrical projects and questions. Best of all they know what they are doing, and no BS. Ron is genuinely a nice person. It's hard to find good electricians and I am so happy to find one, finally.

I needed someone to hook up a new spa.  I used to have a spa with 60 AMP service a few years ago and wiring (disconnected from the Circuit panel)) run to near the new spa which required 40 AMP service.

Patrick told me I needed to replace the 60 AMP breaker with a 40 AMP.  I texted him a photo, explained it was a Siemens breaker box and asked him to pick one up on his drive to my house (Glenbard Electric was on his way and he would know what to ask for).  Instead he showed at my house, up looked at the wiring outside and left to go shopping - I'm guessing he showed up first so he could start his billing clock.
After an hour or so of shopping, he returned and examined the breaker box then declared the work too difficult - he would need to cut away my wall where it joins to the ceiling.  I asked if he would reassemble the wall that he felt he needed to cut away.  Patrick explained that he was an electrician, not a carpenter and it would be my responsibility to patch up my wall/ceiling.  I explained that I did not want to be left with a big ugly hole in my wall/ceiling to which he responded that I already had a big ugly hole in my wall.  He explained that my job would take longer than he expected and a more important customer was waiting for him.
It was at this point that I asked him to leave.

$340 for a service call, 1+ hour for shopping, complaining and a 40 AMP GFCI breaker.  Patrick completed no work but was quick to give me his invoice when I kicked him out.
I will never call this jerk again.

The upshot:  I (a computer consultant) fixed the wiring that was too hard for Patrick:
I reset the junction box in the wall and restrung wires through conduit between the junction box and the circuit panel about 1 foot away.  I did have to stand on a ladder and buy a fitting from Home Depot, but did not have to cut away the wall/ceiling.   I bill my clients by the hour and have no problem paying for good service.  However, I have little patience for someone who pads his bill and complains when the work is slightly more than trivial.

This company was recommended through our Condo Association after I experienced electrical flickering issues for several days.  ComEd found no issues w/ outside wiring leading up to our 12 unit building...Contacted Village Square Electric, had owner Steve Holdefer check out circuit breaker box (indoor) and then main breaker (outside).  Outside breaker found to be faulty and was replaced.  No issues...problem resolved.  Steve was courteous, took time to explain every procedure he took in layman's language...Price was fair (I researched other electrical companies before calling Village)...Would definitely use this vendor again without hesitation.

Polite, helpful and quick
First electrician to respond to my request
Very professional and offered some good additional advice
Solved the problem with minimum cost

Eduardo and his father were extremely professional and kept up on clear communication. Being an older house they ran into unforeseen issues yet they clearly explained every step. They had to cut away a nicely finished cabinet to hide the box from a finished basement. They not only explained clearly the need they also found a carpenter to refinish the the cabinet and allow access to the box and pass inspection as I am selling the house. Despite all the issues they ran into given a 40 year old house they held to their original estimate!!! I highly recommend Supreme Electrical and will use them again!

Took a down payment from me to buy lights. Strung me along for a few months. Wouldn't return my calls. When I threatened him with small claims court, he returned my call and promised me he would return my down payment. Haven't heard from him since. Im in the process of filing with small claims court to get my money back.

These people are a fraud. Do not work with Krystle Stiff or Phillip Sanders. We signed a contract, paid thousands of dollars and have not been able to get a hold of anyone. They started work in Sept. Today is Nov 11 and the only thing done is demo in kitchen, living and dining room. Its been two weeks since they have responded to any communication.

Terrible experience as well.  While a service call on New Year's Day was appreciated, I was totally overcharged for a job that wasn't completely finished.  More importantly, not once was I given an explanation of the work that was done and what the charges were for.  Instead, he tried to convince me that a $7,000 re-working of all of my wiring was needed.  No thanks.  Talk about customer manipulation.

After consulting with 2 other PROFESSIONAL electricians regarding my experience, they felt uncomfortable that someone that claimed to be licensed, bonded, and insured would do such a thing.  Even more entertaining, was a follow up phone call wanting my credit card information after writing him a perfectly funded check.  Really disappointed.  Lesson learned.
