Best Businesses in Illinois

Wow, fast response, easy communication and great work. Replaced an old bathroom fan that to me seemed a little tricky to get old one out and new one to fit. Stefan did it in 45 minutes. Arrived on time, work quietly and quickly. Going to have him do a light fixture too.  Thank you. Highly recommend him.

We needed two outdoor sconces replaced and Darrell was able to help us the same day!  He was very communicative and did a great job.  Great customer service and also wore a mask.
I would definitely recommend them for any services.

I contacted T & D Electrical to help my condo building address a building violation with our electrical driveway gate.  We required a licensed electrician in order to meet City of Chicago codes and Marcus was the only electrician of about 15 that I contacted who was available and willing to help me.  He was extremely professional from the start.  He scheduled the initial estimate within 2 days of my phone call, he arrived on-time to his appointment and called me to let me know he was on his way.  He was courteous and respectful and extremely knowledgeable about the work that we needed done.  His office staff (Christine & Siobhan) were equally friendly and quickly worked to get us the permit we needed and schedule the repair.  He warned me that it may take 4 weeks before the work could be completed, but it was done in 2 weeks!  The electricians that he sent were kind, quick, and thorough, completing the work in 2 hours, when 4-5 hours was estimated- they also arrived on-time!  The price seemed completely reasonable for the work done and came in at about $300 under the initial estimate.  Every single aspect of my experience with T & D was absolutely outstanding.  I not only wholeheartedly recommend T & D to fellow Chicagoans requiring high quality work, but I can speak for my condo building when I say that we will be using T & D for all of our future electrical needs!

Ted is the best, fit us into a very busy schedule and did great work as always.  Gets the job done quickly and right and at a great price.  Highly recommended A+++

Joe was responsive, on time, fixed the problem quickly and for a fair price. Can't ask for more than that. When he left I was confident the job had been done correctly.

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!

Greenline was prompt and easy to work with from the start - sent over some times that would work and showed up right on time.

We were having issues with the outlets on one wall going dead and Greenline was able to diagnose the issue quickly and get it fixed. They were also able to assess a standing desk (powered) that had suddenly stopped working and helped us get in contact with the manufacturer to submit a warranty claim on the internal motor components.

Highly recommend to anyone in the Chicago area who needs an electrician.

I contacted Ryan after running into a problem installing a new light fixture.  I reached out late Saturday morning and he was here by that afternoon!

He was kind, and professional and even took the time to explain to us where the issue was with the existing wiring (even though I'm sure it was obvious it mostly went over our heads). In no time he was at work putting in the new fixture while chatting with my husband and myself and even getting in a few pats on the head for our very eager puppy who was so excited to have someone new in the house.

When all was said and done we had a safely wired, fully functional light fixture in our living room much more quickly than I had anticipated. His pricing was fair and as he left my husband and I breathed a sigh of relief that we had finally found an electrician nearby that we feel we can count on for any future needs.

I would happily refer anyone looking for an electrician to Ryan.

I can't recommend this place and Mike enough. They were able to come same day I called and fixed the issue pretty much right away. He was professional, friendly and cracked a few jokes. Don't hesitate to call if you have any electrical issues.

Steer Clear. This is not a legitimate electrical company. Gave me an estimate and did the electrical work for an EV charger in our condo building. Even though building management didn't request City of Chicago license initially, they checked for it later (it can be asked for at any time) and this company is not licensed in the City of Chicago and its illegal to do residential work without it. The job was done completely wrong and he almost blew the sump pump and electrical to entire building by connecting to a panel inexplicably and was told not to. Installed wiring that was bent and broken and taped together which could have caused shocks and burning. New contractor easily installed it - no bends or breaks. The wall outlet installed was open and exposed, and if water dripped to it could electrocute people. Sloppy, cut corners, dangerous, illegal and not up to code. Absolute garbage, rushed work. Refused to get City of Chicago license and come fix job. We will be pursuing our money back. This is an illegitimate electrical company. Avoid at all costs.

Addendum to review:

Right, I'm not an electrician , but here are couple facts that a real electrician should have known and done, that found out about your job.

You were told by the building engineer to use the 480/277 volt panel because 208/120 was already at the capacity.

You just plainly ignored that and proceeded with your version. Maybe you don't know the difference between two.

You ran 208/ 120 wires through 480/277 panel which was a huge code violation and a human life safety issue.

And that's not all:

Then you spliced those wires inside that panel multiple times -- code violation.

You then decided to use lightning contractor conduit to run the wires and overfill that conduit -- code violation.

You installed the breaker at the wrong panel (which was at capacity) so you overloaded that panel.

The wire was badly scraped

You removed pipe straps and made the electrical conduit loose -- code violation.

J boxes that you installed were unsecured and loose with knock outs missing -- code violation

I'm still waiting on the city of Chicago electrical registration paperwork  from you.

A qualified electrician would know right away that he is working with 480/277 volts and would have informed me that i needed a step down transformer in order for the EV charger to work!

On top things you have charged me over $2K for 2 J boxes and a roll of #6 wire, which costs $600 at the most. The piping was already 97% there , so what took you so long.

It took a qualified electrician a total of 8 hours to remove the faulty work and install everything from scratch including installing the transformer.

We'll happily accept a refund to settle this matter

After attempting to install a new light fixture myself I ran into an electrical road block.  Jose of Tweaks & Finishes responded promptly to my request for an estimate, and scheduled the service call for the same day!  Jose, accompanied by Rodney arrived on time, and treated me and my home with such care and respect.  Jose was extremely knowledgeable, and quickly diagnosed my electrical problem-explaining the issue(s) found along the way.  A quick replacement of a burnt out dimmer switch restored my lighting, and mended the mess I created. Jose and Rodney also cleaned up the wires behind my many wall switches which they found to be a safety hazard, and installed my new ceiling light-all at a reasonable price within my budget.  Both gentlemen were kind, professional, and mindful-cleaning up after any small mess that was made.  I am thankful to have found Tweaks & Finishes, I am looking forward to using them again in the future for a painting project. Many thanks to Jose and Rodney!

Had an awesome experience with Jake. I got into some trouble trying to swap out a light fixture and created a bit of a wiring mess for myself that he was able to skillfully clean up. He was able to go pop out and buy a replacement light fixture that would fit my junction box and install that too. While he was at my house he added a plug to a closet that we had been wanting installed since we moved in. Super efficient work, very pleasant interactions, reasonable pricing- I will definitely be calling Jake up again for future work.

Other comments mention that they like to communicate via text--and that suited me just fine. Had an issue and emailed them at 7am, got a text back by 8:20, and Neville was able to come out that evening. Got the issue fixed up quickly (some confusing wiring inside a ceiling fan hookup) and at a fair rate. Very nice guy and highly recommend!

Words can explain how pleased I am with the job done by Team Kinetic Energy.   This is the second time I've used this company and again, I am pleased with what was done.  I will call on Kinetic Energy each time for all of my home improvement needs.

I had 3 people come out for discussions on our project and Tom came up with great recommendations for outdoor installation of lights and fixed some landscaping spotlights. He was reliable, helped pick out products and did a great job.  I'd definitely recommend him and will use him for future projects.

Frank is very professional.  Showed up when he said he would, explained what he was doing, and even provided a lower price than what he first quoted.  I will definitely call him again for any electrical job.  Highly recommend!

Very responsive and responsible. Alex tried to help us trouble shoot over the phone to save us money. When that didn't work he showed up promptly, diagnosed the issue, and fixed the bad breaker.

Best pricing around and great young guy working hard for his business. Highly recommended.

We've used Fixer three times.  The first time, Chang solved my problem so quickly that I was able to have him do another task to fill the hour.  The second time, he was unable to solve my problem SO DID NOT CHARGE ME!!  The third time, Patrick completed two tasks--carpentry and installation of a garbage disposal--in just a little over an hour.  I am very impressed with these guys and have already arranged to call them again.
