Best Electricians in Illinois

I called Howard after we had a scary experience one night  with our front hall ceiling fixture, which spouted flames after I screwed in a light bulb. He came over the next day and confirmed that our fixture was shot. He was very prepared and professional and did a fantastic job. I had him come back to install a replacement fixture and install a new one in my daughter's room as well. Both jobs were quick and look great! I would definitely use Howard again!

Five stars to North Shore Electric for integrity and good customer service! I recently purchased a ceiling fan for my home, expecting a contractor to install the fan. Unfortunately, the member of the contractors' staff who was supposed install the fan had a family emergency so was unable to do the job. Then, I spotted a North Shore Electric truck at a neighbor's house. I asked the electrician if he could install the fan. He quickly came over and worked diligently to install the fan. Unfortunately, after several attempts -- and quite a bit of effort on electrician's part -- it became apparent that a wiring issue in my nearly 100-year-old home made it impossible for the fan to function properly. The electrician, who was hard-working, neat and courteous, and helped me identify some possible approaches to rewire the house - but didn't charge me for the failed attempt at installation. I would definitely call North Shore Electric for help on a future project and happily pay them for successful work. I recommend North Shore Electric.

We hired Goran to correct some code violations in my mom's older home, replacing outlets with 3-prong and GFCI and adding some additional outlets in the garage. The same day I called he came and did a free estimate. His work was quick and efficient and he did not charge more than his original estimate even though I had under counted the number of outlets that needed replacing. He is easy to work with and we thought his work was excellent. We are going to need more work done and will definitely be calling him. You will not go wrong by hiring Goran.

I am a huge fan of Small Tyme Electric. I manage a few properties throughout Chicago and I have used them every time i needed anything done. Wether it's some minor updates or a complete remodel. Norh Is an amazing person. Such a pleasure to work with. I always have the worst luck when it comes to contractors so when I find a good one I hold on and don't let go. I'm willing to share with you as I want to keep him working for years to come so he's always there when I need him!

Why is there ONLY 5 stars?   There should be tons more for Scott and his crew.  On time ... efficient ... friendly ... neat and tidy ... informative throughout the job ... I could go on and on.  You will NOT go wrong with this company.  I cannot say enough nice things about the all around job.  In these days for 'trying' to find the RIGHT person for your needs, it warms my heart to see someone like Scott in business.  He AND HIS CREW are the very best.  

Thanks Scott for doing what you do ... perfectly!

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!

We needed a very heavy ceiling fixture installed on a 12 foot high ceiling.  Bill was referred by a friend in our grandson's school network.  My wife made a couple of phone calls, set an appointment time and price.  It was the end of the day and Bill was a little late getting to our 5'ish appointment time, but when we called we were assured he'd be there shortly.

When attaching the base of the fixture one of the screws started floating, meaning that it would be very hard for anyone to remove the fixture in the future.  Before tightening everything, Bill removed the base and started again making sure it was done correctly.

All in all we are very satisfied with the work and have planned additional work in the near future.

Chris from C and E was referred to me by a friend a few days ago when I was asking for a reliable handyman/painter.  We needed a few small repairs around the house, mostly patching and paint touch ups. Chris and his coworker just finished up and I am beyond pleased! These guys really know what they are doing and are very reasonably priced. It was a great experience and I would definitely recommend C and E to anyone looking for a high quality handyman.

The team that showed up was professional, upfront with pricing, and got immediately to work. I have an older home and they noticed a few issues (some bigger than others) but weren't overly dramatic about them. I've found living in an older home, professionals tend to freak out whenever they're confronted by something that isn't by the modern book. They quickly fixed what I asked for and gave me straightforward advice on how to, eventually, handle the other matters. They were early but called to confirm that was okay. Overall, very good service and will absolutely recommend and use again.

We called for an electrical short that kept setting off the circuit breaker. After 4 days of dealing with another company that had a different story everyday. We called Sam and he solved our problem in a couple of hours for a reasonable price.
He knows his electricity very well.
I would recommend him for any electrical work needed.
He is now our go to guy.
Thank you very much

The company was very prompt, gave me an accurate time frame at which they could come out.  The serviceman was very professional, let me know exactly what was wrong, and fixed it quickly.  Even called the next day to ensure that everything was working properly.  Great service, all around great experience.

My original review was one star due to Some real garbage work and high pricing that one of their new workers did. Kenneth refunded some of the money but it took many months of arguing which I didn't deserve because his workers didn't have proper tools or work ethic to complete the job.

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.
