Best Businesses in Illinois

Stefan is very responsive. I just used him to replace some blown breakers due to an overheating dryer. I reached out via Yelp and he responding on a Sunday no less! He said he could arrive on Wednesday and provided a flat fee quote vs hourly that could have turned into who knows what. He checked in with me the morning of and ended up coming 2 hours ahead of schedule after calling me to see if I would be available. Great service, clear quote upfront, and I didn't have to worry about him showing up! Highly recommend.

Our window ac cools the whole first floor of our 1920's Bungalow. During those early hot days in June our ac kept tripping the breaker if I set it any lower than 74. My mom is in her late 80's and is a cancer patient. Her room was 84 degrees! Not safe at all for her and I feared she'd get dehydrated. I saw Sims and Sons had 5 stars and honestly I was skeptical. Is this company really that good? Yup, it is! I called close to 5:00 on a Friday and got a message so I hung up thinking they were closed for the weekend. Maybe 10 minutes later Darrell Sims called me back apologizing for missing my call! I explained my situation and per his request sent photos of my electrical panel while we talked. He diagnosed over the phone that I needed a sub panel so the ac would be on its own breaker and quoted me a fair price. He was honest, personable and empathetic to my concerns about my mom including her high risk for covid. He assured me he'd send vaccinated guys which was exactly what I needed. Sunday night he texted me the guys would be at my house Monday morning! The guys (Anel, Delvin, Christian and Graham) were courteous and really hard workers. They hustled and got a sub panel added, grounded the house, added a new outlet and repaired an outlet that had sunk into the wall (that was outside of the initial scope but they added it without batting an eye.) The guys also wore the N95 masks I supplied without a single complaint. It was the best possible scenario I could have hoped for. As a person who has immunocompromised family members, having strangers in my home during this pandemic is really scary. Sims and Sons made me feel like family was in my home helping me take care of my mom and taking steps to make sure she's comfortable. I'm really grateful to Darrell and his guys for being so responsive and doing everything they said they would! Darrell is a great guy and he's running a great business!

Hired to install some fixtures and reroute power. Our technician was prompt, professional, thoughtful about the work and the final quality and attention to detail was excellent. I will 100% be using T & D electrical for any future electrician needs.

He texted me right away and we set up an appointment, a week out. On the day of the appointment he didn't respond to my text asking him to confirm that he would be here and that he would be wearing a mask. He didn't text or call to confirm or cancel, and he didn't show up. Very disappointed.

Joe was great!  He was on time and extremely responsive throughout my communication with him.  I needed a simple light installed in an awkward place and he was able to quickly install it and did so at a very reasonable price.  Other electricians stated that I needed to re-wire everything, but he was able to come in and do the job efficiently and at a great price.  I highly recommend!

Chris was AMAZING! He was super reliable and took such great care in my forever home. He has come back twice and each time he has exceeded my expectations and I've already given his info to many friends who could use some electrical work. He hung 3  huge chandeliers with care and even made one work that didn't come with the parts needed from the manufacturer. He then hung an additional 6 other lights and even changed all my lightbulbs so they matched in color!

He also came back and hung two tvs for me the second visit which I can assure you will not be his last!

Thank you Chris and team for amazing and fast service  and being such a great person overall!

Appreciate you and your team!  See you soon!

We had issues with an outdoor outlet nuisance tripping during heavy rain, even after having a new cover installed.  Unfortunately this outlet shared a circuit with our bedroom and office outlets, so the tripping caused heavy disruption.   It was particularly bad very early one morning after a stormy night, which left me scrambling at 7:15am trying to find an electrician.  Greenline answered immediately and was able to come out later that afternoon.  After some troubleshooting and exploratory work, the recommendation was to put the GCFI outlet on a dedicated circuit to prevent further disruption.  They came back the next day and did so quickly and efficiently, and even replaced the cover with a more durable one.  They also thoughtfully replaced our old and worn bedroom light switches and a scarred outlet for free - I really appreciated their thoughtfulness here.  They did all this for a very reasonable price and were easy to work with and communicative every step of the way.  I highly recommend them if you need any electrical work done!

Ryan was great to work with. He was on time and very transparent on what he was doing and what the cost would be. Furthermore he had me inspect the work afterwards to make sure I was satisfied. I will definitely be working with Ryan again in the future.

I've used Highlights Chicago twice: once for the condominium building and once for my own unit. The people with whom I booked the appointment were amiable. Both times, they had an electrician available the day of my call (Elvir), he was knowledgeable and professional, and the price was reasonable. It was easy to pay over the phone, and the company was quick with electronic communications (receipts, etc.).

Rogelio did a good job on our building. Repaired some outlets, in the apartment, garage, and outside of the building. He shared photos of his progress. We talk over the phone to clarify details and got a quote on the spot for additional work that was necessary and was finished the same day after getting the parts needed.
He is also bilingual, what helps communicating easier for a larger population group.
All good overall.

I used tweaks & finishes to help me install some outlets and light switches in various parts of my home. They were fast, professional and reliable. Quick replies to all text messages and good communication overall. I would recommend to others!

We have used Jake over the years for all of our electrical needs. He is absolutely amazing and always works incredibly hard and fast. If you are looking for surround sound, new canned lighting, rewiring or all of the above, he is 100% the man for the job!

Blacklite Electricians are awesome!!! We will not use anyone else. We used their services 2 times and both times, they were on time, professional, friendly and completed their work as they promised.

First experience was with Johnny. Very nice and friendly. He even educates while he does his work. Had a nice conversation throughout listening to some of his stories.

Second time, requested for Johnny but he was unable to make it, so Neville came over. Not only did he install Nest, fix switches, take care of some non-working outlets but also installed a garbage disposable including the plumbing aspects! WoW! that's not his expertise and he was clear about it but he figured out everything as to how it works quickly and helped install a new garbage disposal. It was messy but he did not mind! He educated us on how to fix certain things as well. It took an hour and half to complete the work but he charged us only for 1 hour. He also gave us the new customer discount a second time.

We will praise him for using text only as well. He was prompt in responding to our request both times. Set up schedule, sent us the amount we owed all through text and it works well!

Highly recommend for great, professional service at affordable price!

Ted and his crew did everything you'd hope for right.

Ted showed up to give me a very reasonable estimate on the day I called.

The team showed up on time on the agreed upon date, with covers for their shoes and everything they needed to do an efficient job ( since I was paying by the hour for labor I appreciated this).

They noted, explained, and then corrected a couple of other electrical system errors that they encountered.

The work was neatly done and they cleaned up before they left. Not a speck showed they'd been there.

All in all a great consumer experience on my side.

I recently hired this electrician to install a Ring doorbell in my home and I couldn't be happier with his work! He was very professional, promptly arrived on time, and was able to install the device quickly without any problems. He even took the time to explain how the doorbell works and answer any questions I had. The installation itself was seamless and the doorbell works perfectly. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and dedication to providing top-notch service. I would highly recommend this electrician to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled professional. Top-notch service and a true 5-star experience! Thank you, Tom!

Wonderful communication and service from Frank and his father. We couldn't be happier with the installation of our lights, switches, and other necessary repairs. Would highly recommend them for your future home needs.

Pros: responsive, punctual, honest, respectful of my home, fair pricing
Cons: none found
Alex did a great job replacing a broken switch. He responded quickly to my initial request and was fast in communicating throughout the scheduling process. We are very happy with the quality of work.
We'll likely have to have most of our old wiring replaced and are looking forward to have Alex and his team back. Seems to be a newer company, and I'm glad we took a chance on them.

Used Fixer to come out for a couple electrical jobs. They were on time, communication was great, software is top notch esp for a handyman company, and pricing was reasonable. Thanks to Luis M! He is great!
