Best Electricians in Illinois

I bought a condo in an iconic Chicago high rise and I didn't know where to start to get all the little things addressed, but Patrick from Fixer was a dream! The leaky faucet will get repaired, the loose faucet got repaired and my punch list of silly little things has been turned over to someone with skill, creativity and with whom I trust and have the utmost confidence. Patrick was quick and effective; his problem solving skills are exactly what I needed. Well done FIXER! Looking forward to the return visits to continue on the list. Highly recommend Fixer app- easy to use and leaves very little to imagination.

Mike and his crew ALWAYS do an outstanding job.  I would recommend them anytime.

Greg and Steve of Duplex Electric are great! I found a recommendation for them on next-door.com, and have since had them out to fix a few different issues. Both times I've called they have responded within hours to my voicemail messages and have come out that day or the next day. They first came out to replace a basement ceiling light. Through this they discovered that the switch was improperly wired. They explained clearly what the issue was, and fixed the switch and replaced the fixture quickly. The second time they came out to install two ceiling fixtures and to replace our kitchen outlets with GFCI outlets. Both times they explained to me clearly what the issues were, worked with safety precautions, arrived on time, and charged a reasonable amount. They are super professional, very knowledgeable, and on top of that were friendly with my crazy dogs - I will for sure call them the next time we need anything electrical fixed. Thank you, Greg and Steve!

Art did a great job installing my new ceiling fan. He is extremely knowledgeable and I would highly recommend!

Highly recommend Donatello Electric for any of your electrical projects. Steve and Joel went above and beyond to make sure the jobs were done right. Very professional ! If I could give them more stars I would! Thank you!

Purchased a new house and had a few electrical items to address.  Found Prolite Electric on Yelp and felt good about their reviews.  After leaving a message, Jack called me back that day.  Went over his pricing and I felt he was very reasonable so I made an appointment.   He sent his technician Matt over to fix the items and I was very pleased with Matt's service.  He was on time and very professional.  I'm looking forward to using them in the future.

Update 1/3/2017.  Again Matt does another great job.  Had a laundry list of items to get done and  Matt's work was perfect.  Jack is very affordable and this will always be the company that does my electrical work.

Was having an issue with my air conditioning and Robert was able to diagnose the problem and resolve the issue quickly. He's professional, punctual, and is willing to work with you to get what you need done. I was also having an issue with my garage door and he was able to quickly repair that as well. Overall it was great experience working with this company!!!

Hey hipsters, this is who you want.

Pros:
Friendly, easy going, courteous,

Cons:
Cash only

Needed about five overhead lights replaced, some with bad wiring and others with very old fixtures. Jeff came out to our home, resolved some of my 'creative workarounds', offered suggestions, spotted some bad wiring, addressed said problem, and gave me an estimate for other wish list work.

Overall, Jeff was very easy to work with and I'd have no problem recommending him for this type of work.

Called these guys with an issue, got an immediate response and an appointment for two days later. A gentleman came out and offered a cheaper and much less time consuming fix and it's been working beautifully! They even took the time to send a thank you note for choosing them. Really stand up guys and I highly recommend calling them

Long overdue review on an excellent job done.
I contacted David when my house in New Lenox was being sold and the fuse panel needed to be replace as an inspection objection from the buyers.  I contacted a few other electricians but David gave me the best price, time to complete and was very responsive with our contacts.
He showed up on time (2 days from when I called), was able to do the job on a tight timeline, but took enough time to do a clean job on the wiring.  He's professional, easy to talk with, has good communication and did a great job.  He's the kind of electrician you keep on using when projects come up.  Thanks David for the excellent work.  We ended up selling our house easily thanks to the upgraded panel.

Matt and Goldstream Electrical are fantastic. I've used them several times now, for big jobs such as changing my main breaker; and some smaller jobs such as installing a switch for an overhead light and putting in some new outlets. He is a great electrician, always wears footies on his shoes when he's indoors (even though in our house you really don't need to), does great work for a reasonable price, and is VERY reliable. Goldstream is my go-to electrician now, you won't be disappointed if you give him a try.

Very professional and knowledgeable tech.    After getting a couple quotes from different companies I decided to change the electric panel and  install the ev charger with Electric Castle . Mike and Bogdan explained the process and the steps they have to do in order to get the job done. Very careful around the house, clean and outstanding job overall
Totally recommend

Had a great experience with Randal Electric. I'm selling my condos in Chicago and some very minor electrical work popped up on the home inspection report. I called a few different electricians on Yelp in the area and a lot hung up on me because my request was too small for them to set an appointment. I communicated with Randy what I needed to be done and he was confident that it would be a quick and easy fix, plus he'd be able to put me down for an appointment the next morning. Eddie was my electrician who was right on time this morning. He was polite and professional and after he was finished with the breaker he even asked if he could review the home inspection report to make sure everything needing an electricians attention was covered. I appreciate honest businesses in home services. While searching for electricians I ran across CR Electric and they tried to upsell me on an entire new panel a 4-6 hour job that would have been unnecessary and over the top. Eddie was able to make the breaker safe and eliminate the double tap breaker installed by a 10+ year old alarm system company that I never used in 7 years of owning the property. I'm glad I called Randal Electric and if I need electricians for the next 4 condos about to go on the market I know who I'll be calling!

Edwin is responsive, friendly, and solved our electrical issue promptly. He also installed electric to our deck. Highly recommend.

Where shall one begin? This was the question that plagued myself when searching for an electrician and now has beset once more. In the latter case it is about how to describe the immense work ethic, professionalism and unfathomable attention to detail that these electricians possess. As a matter of course one should assume to be nervous while having others check and repair a utility that has the potential for catastrophic consequences if done incorrectly, but in this case, that anxiety was relieved as soon as I witnessed the replacing of a single electrical receptacle (outlet), deservedly so since about 20 more needed replacement and/or repair. The attention to detail and most importantly, safety that was undertaken when doing the work, was carried out so eloquently, so refined, so meticulous, yet at such an impressive speed was truly a conglomerate of qualities that no other contractor or tradesmen could possibly hold, at least not in my experiences (especially having worked in trades). This was the real deal and so very comforting due to the age and condition of the amateur endeavored wiring practices in my home from previous residents that could only be described as a patchwork of old and barely useable to ancient and likened to a powder keg with a lit match on the rim. Electrical work is absolutely not my first 'rodeo', I do know quite a bit and the parts that I didn't, were refined by being privy the sheer and unadulterated professional installations by these guys, as well being shown technique to improve my own electrical work. In essence, I know what faulty, shoddy work is, and the work done, namely by Erik, and Homer, is the opposite. For lack of better terms the work was; top notch, dead on, perfect in every possible way! The only thing that was better were the rates for the volume of work (whole-home and garage device replacements). I can sleep at night knowing that my building will not perish in flame, nor myself in my sleep due to the absolutely top quality work done by these men (especially Erik). I am still astounded that I actually found honest contractors who stuck to quote, were really reasonable in cost, and best of all did the work with integrity and pride and even arrived before they were due, very likeable and courteous as well. No shortcuts, no trickery, just quality and solutions. If you are in need of an electrician, there is absolutely no other choice. You will absolutely not find better. I worked in trades and I couldn't, until now.

Just wanted to leave this review as a thank you to Homer, Erik, Tyler and Mark. Excellent work, I couldn't imagine something better. Thanks again!

I recently moved to Chicago and needed work done in my condo. HandiCo has been out for work twice (hanging ceiling fans/lights and installing garbage disposal) and each time they came quickly, were on time, left everything clean, and did great work. They know what they are doing, tell you up front what it will cost and provide great work. They even fixed a botched job that someone else did. I will use them every time.

I worked with Corey - his response time was extremely quick and was flexible with his schedule. We had a chandelier that needed to be hung and Corey did a great job. We will definitely be using his services again for other electrical projects in my condo!  They also provide very fair prices for the work being completed.  I had a lot of difficulty finding anyone that could match his quote.

Overall I am extremely happy with the service that was provided and love the job that was done.

I had a lot of electrical issues in a rental property. After calling numerous electricians, all of whom never returned my call or if they did, never showed up, I finally reached out to A to Z Electric. They were very responsive, coming out immediately and resolving all of the issues in my rental property. I don't know if they were overpriced as I didn't have an opportunity for comparisons. While A to Z certainly were not cheap, they definitely were worth the money. There have been no further issues and I am very satisfied with the work done.

Angel is the man! I called him around 2:30PM to have 4 light fixtures replaced in the stairwells of my house (high ceilings). I explained to him the urgency of having these replaced and he told me he could be there by 5:30 later that day. He actually showed up an hour early (4:30PM) and was done within 3 hours.

I highly recommend Angel, will be calling him back for future projects.

I was having an issue with the exhaust fan in my bathroom. The fixer handyman came out exactly on time and was so incredibly kind and helpful. He answered all of my questions and was very professional. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again!
