Best Electricians in Illinois

Howard is excellent.  I highly recommend him.

I first called him a few weeks ago when I had an electrical issue in my master bath.  While we were talking on the phone, he advised me to check the simple things first, like the circuit breaker.  Turns out, the circuit breaker had popped.  Switched it back on, and most (but not all) of my problem was solved.  I appreciated his willingness to help troubleshoot over the phone -- even when he wasn't getting paid.

Howard came to the house a few days later to resolve the remainder of the issue.  A couple of hours later all was well again!  He even installed an exhaust fan/light while he was here.

Howard is friendly, knowledgeable, prompt, and professional.  If I need any additional electrical work in the future, he's my guy.

Mike came this morning to install a new fluorescent light fixture in the kitchen. He did a great job working with the old wiring. He was polite, efficient, and cleaned up when he finished. This would be a five-star review except that I was told he'd arrive between 9 and 10 and he didn't arrive until closer to 11. Other than that--great job. I'd use this company again.

Goran arrived on time, identified and addressed the issue while on site, and had the best rates of anyone we found in our service area. Two thumbs up!

After searching for electricians I found small tyme Electric emailed Norh and we were so happy we made the right choice. After emailing back and forth he was very understanding, Although I knew nothing about electricity. He was very patient and was accurate with the pricing. We appreciate the great work he did and how quick it was done. We will highly recommend for any future electrical needs. Thank you!

I had a relatively small job installing a 220 line at my place of business. Frank knew exactly what the various options were and spent a generous amount of time going over them with me, ever mindful of my budgeting.

I'm glad to have found a local independent contractor for future electrical services.

Scott has been our primary electrician for the past 3 years.  Whether it's installing receptacles so that we can have a mounted light in the bedrooms or installing various light fixtures, we've been very happy with Scott and his crew.  He is very considerate, knowledgeable and makes sure the job gets done correctly and timely.  If you need an electrician in Lake County, Scott's your guy!

Mike Gordon of MPG Electric did an outstanding job replacing under cabinet lighting as well as hanging a fixture that I hesitated to buy due to review after review saying how hard it was for their person to hang. I liked the looks of it and decided to take the chance despite the reviews. He had absolutely no trouble because he really knows what he is doing. In addition, he generously offers his time to answer questions as well as help with purchasing. His patience is extraordinary.

Our previous electrician left us with dimmers that didn't work for years. Mike knew exactly what to use and they work fine for the first time since we lived in this home. He is honest and charges fairly. We intended to add a dimmer to our kitchen fixture but then we weren't sure if it was needed. He was fine with letting us check it out at night, where we could judge better, and get back to him. He offered to come back and not charge the initial first hour charge or return it depending on our decision. He really cares about his customers! We highly recommend him!

Mjp electric was awesome!  A true professional from beginning to end.  He gave me a reasonable quote to install a motion sensor light on the exterior of my home.  He respected my property and me by wearing shoes covers and a face mask every time he entered my home during the install.   He treated my home like it was worth a million bucks.  Besides all this he has a absolutely friendly personality.  I will definitely use him again!  Thanks for the great job!

If you are in the market for a house or commercial generator, Penco is the way to go.  From sales (Marion Ignoffo) to installation(Edgar), they were professional, knowledgeable, kept time commitments, and helped me along with the process. I checked with other companies and no one compared to the service and personal touch I received. Their prices are very competitive as well. If i could give them more than 5 stars i would. I most highly recommend Penco.

I recently purchased a condo that needed a paint job and I wanted to have it done before I moved furniture in.  Good Guys were very responsive and explained how they work to me over the phone and scheduled a date for the work the next day-- just before the holidays.  Great!  Chris and his brother were very nice and explained what they were doing each step of the way.  However, they were an hour to an hour and a half late for each day.   It wasn't that big of a deal as I was off work but, better communication would have been appreciated.  They seemed to have emergencies each day.  Also, the paint job (1000 sq ft condo) took double the time I was expecting for a paint job and they charge by the hour.  Lastly, their painting technique involved painting over the base boards.  Because of the 3 day duration, I could not afford to pay by the hour for an additional day so, I will have to finish the paint job myself--which is fine but, from others I have spoken with they should never have painted over the base boards.  I had another furniture assembly job and that was ok.  I would have appreciated a more accurate estimate of time before we confirmed the job.

I had Caval Electric do some work for me today and I was really glad I did.  Carlos showed up early, which is always a plus in my book.  I did something really stupid with my hard-wired smoke detector and lost power to part of my apartment.  However, it turned out that really wasn't the source of the problem:  when I was monkeying with the fuses in my old-fashioned fuse box after the incident, I removed one where the socket was defective. I couldn't put the fuse back in properly and thus the power loss.

Carlos discovered the problem in my fuse box, crafted a solution to it, and reconnected my smoke detector.  He was friendly, polite, and quick, but he took the time to explain to me what the problem was and made sure I understood how to replace the battery in my smoke detector and reattach it to the ceiling.  To top it off the price was very reasonable.  I will be calling Caval the next time I need an electrician.

We made an appointment for an estimate and nobody showed up. I called and only received voicemail and nobody returned my calls. Based upon other more positive reviews, I was disappointed in the unprofessional treatment.

Never received a receipt. Sent a text asking for a receipt and never got a response. Do yourself a favor and choose a vendor who will provide a receipt. ***Update *** received the receipt after this review was posted.

Excellent service. Came out less than 30 minutes. Thorough, reassuring electric needs looked at. Answered all questions. Highly recommend.

I couldn't be happier with the service provided by this company. Tom was incredibly responsive and had his team on the job the same day I contacted them...a real blessing after all the problems I have had with my contractor. They did an exceptional job and were a joy to have in my home...even my cat loved them! They were professional, conscientious, knowledgeable, and highly skilled. I will definitely have them back and I would recommend them to anyone.
