Best Electricians in Illinois

I can't recommend Alltown Electric enough. I called Alltown a few months ago and left a voicemail. When I got chatting to Noel the same day, he said he would stop by on his way home to fit my chandelier. While he was here, he also fixed an outlet for me that was tripping and gave me some longer screws I would need for another DIY job I was working on. He was so helpful and so genuine. I'll definitely call him for any electric projects going forward and I've recommended him to all my family. Find a good tradesperson and you're set. I'm glad I found a great electrician!!

I hired Advance Electric to run underground electric out to the detached garage in the new house we just bought.  The previous owner built a new garage but they never installed electric.  They did a great job. Permit, trench, ran the conduit, installed interior lights, workshop light and various outlets for the garage door opener, tools, etc.  The work was inspected by the city and was immediately approved.  They were prompt, professional and easy to communicate with.  Highly recommended.

Cleaned up all the old issues that other BS electrical contractors did. Excellent service and quick turn

Found positive feedback online, so asked him to come by to help quote a subpanel addition in our older building. Peter was great!
Not only did he spend an hour here walking me through all the possibilities, he was more than happy to help me figure out ballpark costs (which were very reasonable), he also answered all sorts of questions I had about our building's electrical system and what if's I had about upcoming electrical projects that took our board months to get answers for.
Super nice, Zero pressure, would highly, highly recommend.

Frank was courteous, honest and easy to deal with. Scheduling was a breeze. I had to reschedule once and that was done very easily too.
The team arrived as promised on time and got the work done very efficiently. professional and friendly.

Good job Frank & team!

6 Weeks - No Quote

My initial experience with Current Electric was good. I submitted an inquiry via their website and quickly received a call. I was able to schedule an at-home appointment for the following week in order to review the work required to provide a quote. This appointment took place on May 4th.

The technician was both professional and knowledgeable. He offered helpful suggestions and I had a good impression of their services.

This is where the experience completely deteriorated. It has now been over a month and a half since the technician came to my home.

I have called multiple times requesting an update on my quote. Each time I have been given an apology and a promise to receive a quote by a specific date. Those dates have now come and gone four different times.

As of today, nearly 7 weeks since my technician visit, I still have not received a quote.

Based on the other reviews, my experience seems to be unique; however, I have given them multiple opportunities to provide the promised quote.

At this point, I can only conclude that EV charger installations are not a priority for their company.

Skyline (Kent) provided nothing but the best in terms of service. I had used another provider for a similar work request before and Kent completed the same work order in about one third of the time and was far superior. His expertise really showed through in dealing with the specifics of my electrical wiring in an apt. in a high rise in River North.

He has been doing this for a long time and truly understands what he is doing. I thank him for making my life painless for what I view as a generally painful undertaking in which I know very little about.

They seem to have done a good job overall, but it was hard to communicate with them. He came fairly quickly to give me a quote and explained everything he was going to do. He seems very knowledgeable about his job and gave me a good price. However, he must be very busy because after I agreed to the quote it was hard to get answers to my questions. Then, he was supposed to return to finish putting the plate on the wall and to adjust the lights as they are motion lights and one of them only turns on for a second and then it goes off, so now I'm left with trying to fix those final minor things. I'm not handy man, so that's just annoying to me.

Just as a follow up, they did come and finish the loose ends. My advice is that if you sense your questions or concerns are not being met, just reach out to the owner of the company, Jesse!

We needed our old smoke detector fixed. Volodymyr was quick, straightforward, and professional. He also replied to messages within a reasonable time frame. Highly recommend!

I've used LMV Electric a couple of times now, and Lucas does a fantastic job.  He is very knowledgeable and professional.  I would highly recommend for any electrical needs.

Eugene explained clearly the problems and solutions.  He really knows his stuff.  He arrived and finished on time. Price was very good, a bit less than I thought it would be.

Highly recommend these guys.  Also recommend Todd.  He was early and extremely professional.  Will call them next time I need an electrician for sure.

Mo was so helpful in fixing my convoluted outdoor hose issues. He had extra parts in his van as well and explained each issue in detail. He also fixed our gate when he noticed something off. Would hire again!

I would not trust or recommend any other company than RED Electric. I was so lucky they were referred to me. Ed and his team are truly fantastic, professional and provided super high quality work. I had my entire house (1939 Georgian) rewired and upgraded to a 200 amp panel, plus they removed a ton of old low-voltage wires. It was about 3 weeks worth of work total and lots of holes in the walls but totally worth it  to have a safe, newly wired home. Emilio was the main technician at my house. He was so nice and friendly and professional. Not only did he do great work, he helped me practice my spanish and my skills improved dramatically while he was here. Even the inspector who came over knew of Ed and his team and said he has one of the best electric companies out there and is highly respected.  So do yourself a favor, just go with Ed and his team, don't bother with anyone else.

I needed a ceiling fan installed after a failed attempt to do so on my own. Contacted AM&L in the morning and they were able to come the same day for install. They were quick, professional and I was very impressed with their knowledge too. I'll be using them for future electrical needs

We have used Alternating Currents since we moved to Glen Ellyn 35 years ago.  Every project from replacing a breaker box to correcting remodelers mistakes has been done well. The employees arrive on time and easy to talk to, answering all questions.  The estimate is what I have ended up paying, no surprises.
