Best Electricians in Illinois

One of the only union electricians in the Channahon area that does RESIDENTIAL work.
Mr. Paxson did an excellent job!  We had three receptacles, two fans, and three switches installed.  Mr. Paxson gave us a very good estimate, and stayed in contact with us as we decided what to have done.  
On the day the work was completed he showed up on time.  
All of the work is top notch!
As the work was completed he kept the area very clean.
Everything was done within three hours.
Please see the photos and video I have posted.
If you want it done right the first time call him.
- I know good electrical work.
(I myself was in the electrical union previously.)

If you are looking for someone who is honest, fair and knows what he's doing then Eddie is your guy. He came out to help me with some electric work in my crawlspace and garage. Eddie gave me options rather than quoting me the highest price. I recommend this company for anyone looking for a reasonable quote for quality work.

I like using local companies, they replaced the circuit box.  Adequate job, cost more than estimate due to adding another task (waterproofing, needed and glad they did it, that had been my problem), maybe they couldn't know.  BUT... BIG WARNING  They put all the circuits randomly, not where they had been before.  It took me a long time to map out which circuit was which room originally when I had a wife, now alone it will be a huge task, going up and down stairs countless times.  So if  you have a circuit box replaced, you may want to tell them to put the new circuits where the old ones were.  I did have them marked (he said not) though I had moved a few when the old one failed and that position was corroded so I had to put in the new breaker in a different location.  But I knew which ones I had moved, so didn't need the markings on those.

Nick Mass and Brendan just finished fixing my attic fan! So now my a/c is drawn upstairs!! So hot...but they came on time and did the job quickly and professionally! They left no mess and were cheerful and thorough despite what must be over 100 degrees temp plus humidity in the attic!!! Thank you!!!!!!

I had accidentally tiled over the spot on the electrical outlet where you attach one side of the cover on the kitchen backsplash. With my property sale inspection in a few days, I needed a handyman to fix my DIY blunder ASAP. Eligio was able to fix it quickly and the turnaround time from request to completion was less than 24 hours.  I recommend him and his business highly!

Nice young man who has expertise. Did a great job fixing our ceiling light and bath exhaust fan. Would recommend him highly. Was prompt and did excellent work.

Excellent service. Excellent communication. They worked with my schedule instead of forcing me to work with theirs. Very friendly and accommodating. I would use them again

Fast and courteous service!  I've had a couple of calls out for electrical service in my unit after a serious roof leak.  I've  been impressed with the level of service and diligence at finding the root cause of the electrical issues.

Had a GFCI trip during the night for no apparent reason, nothing running at the time.
Called to request that it be checked out. Showed up within 20 minutes, did a thorough evaluation and very reassuring.
Will definitely add to my address book for future use.

We hired Brian to complete a punch list of electrical items. The written contract that was agreed upon was for around $3800. The work was supposed to be completed around October 15th per the contract.  It didn't get done til February 12th.  That's FOUR months late.

Now let's talk about money. The final bill ended up being $13,500.00. That's not a typo. Thirteen thousand five hundred dollars. We were shocked when we received the bill. We asked him what happened to the contract. He said there were other issues that had to be corrected and the contract says any other issues are billed at $90/ hour. Fair enough, but the first time he told us about the other issues is when the final invoice was rendered. We never even had a chance to authorize or approve these additional issues to be corrected.

This guy pretty much ripped a page out of our checkbook and wrote himself a blank check. DO NOT let this happen to you. Never sign an open ended contract with this contractor or any other contractor, otherwise, you will be the one to get shocked at the end.

If a zero was possible, that is what I would give this contractor.  I hired him to install under cabinet lights.  He came out with an obviously untrained apprentice who did all of the work while he sat and barked out orders -- screaming at him much of the time.  At one point the apprentice was lost and did not know what to do.  Rather than helping him, he responded -- figure it out idiot and sat there staring at him.  Eventually, I started helping the apprentice myself.  He then billed me over a $1000.  Shortly after I received the bill, he called demanding payment.  I explained that I felt I was overbilled.  But, I agreed to pay him $700 that night if he would consider it payment in full.  He agreed, but has continued sending me invoices for allegedly past due amounts and has even filed a mechanics lien on my house.  Do not use this bully.

THIEF !  LIAR!  CHEAT!  THIEF!  LIAR!  CHEAT!
Dino asked for 1/2 upfront 500$ night before job.  Then didn't show up day of !  Didn't answer phone!  Or text for 24 hours!   Next day after I canceled payment with pay pal he called to say couldn't do job with out the money that we have in limbo now?  And he caught a 24 hour bug ! (After doing what ever he does Friday nights!) Didn't apologize at all for anything .  In fact he then told me he would return money but he had to call back all the other clients that called him FIRST!  I had to 3 way him and pay pal to get him to believe me telling him  that he could return money without it taking 30 days!   Then he did not before starting to sware over the phone that I can just get my money and pay him in check.   Careful he can get a temper!   This morning PayPal informed me his return was denied due to INSUFFICIENT FUNDS !  6 days after I payed him he still didn't have my money knowing the return was coming!!  Never mentioned he spent the money.  I gave him every chance to at least be honest and he lied the whole way.  He texted us this morning in response to us Leaving a very unhappy message . And He texted back That we screw** him!!!  ?   And he refused tell us where are money went.      
BEWARE.  SCAM ARTIST.   LIAR.   CHEAT!!!!!!

- 100 STARS!!!!!!   Hope I get my money back
So I can get electric for my a/c for my 5 month old baby's before a heat wave!!!!  
Thanks Dino !
Dean Hightower. Still waiting on a apology and the truth!

I hired Advanced Area Serv Corp to do the complete wiring for my 900 Sq Ft Master Bedroom Suite Addition. They were totally awesome! They accommodated my schedule and arrived on time. They completed the work on time and diligently cleaned behind themselves. I was impressed with their professionalism and would highly recommend them to all my family and friends

Let me start off by saying that their work is quality and end result was good, hence the 2 stars. If you are willing to wait and get 3rd class service with a good price then I suggest going with them.
Kinslow smith is run by 1 person - Ed. Ed is never available by phone. He has hired someone to answer his calls,Nancy, and email him with appointments and questions. I saw an amazon deal online and called before I purchased to see if I really needed to get it since most places honor the price with out groupon/amazonlocal purchase. I needed my chandelier installed with a new electrical source and Nancy set up a next day estimate with Ed. He was great and on time and promised us to get it done before Christmas with all work done by him only. On the day of his appointment he just never showed. No one picked up, we waited and waited. At last Nancy texted me 1 hour PAST my appointment slot saying Ed is sick and he won't be showing up. Why couldn't he just call me and tell me PRIOR to my appointment? So then the next 2 days I waited for someone to call me back and reschedule (even though I did not want to give them a second chance for such poor customer service but my husband wanted to use him bc of his prices). NO CALL BACK.
I called and called until I reached Nancy who rescheduled me and states she cannot apologize on his behalf. I told Nancy to have Ed call me personally...he never did. The day of our second appointment Nancy stopped picking up. I googled Ed's cell and he told me he was running a half hour behind...fine. Just tell me!!! Ends up he came with 2 other guys we never met and then Ed LEFT for the whole time. These 2 guys were training and he just left them. I was told only Ed would be doing my work. Luckily my chandelier is up and I am happy with the clean up afterwards.

Long story short, I personally would not recommend Kinslow Smith. Poor customer service in 2013 does not fly...may be 10 years ago it did.
