Best Businesses 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.

North Shore Electric is fantastic! I have had them out for two small projects in my older home, and the work they've done is perfect. Bill is a great electrician, very thorough, timely, and performs high-quality work. Well worth the expense (which is reasonable), and highly recommended.

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.
(Note: He is listed on DexKnows as Kutlich Electrical Services if you want to read more reviews)

Norh is such a professional guy, he came for an estimate explained everything to us and then showed up for to the job on time, prepared, knowledge and with a great attitude!
We had a few outlets installed and a ceiling fan moved, he worked very throughly and took his time to do everything correctly and cleaned up after himself! He takes pride in his work which shows and his costumer service is wonderful.
That's how it should be all around 5 Stars!

Great service! I was able to schedule an appointment very easily with Frank over the phone. He arrived on time and ready to work. He was able to resolve the problem I had called about quickly. I thought the charge for his services was very reasonable and would recommend him to you. Thanks for your help, Frank!

While I didn't use Scott's services this time, he was very helpful in responding to my Yelp request for a quote and made the process for scheduling an estimate very easy. Compared to other contractors who just tell you to call (which I don't want to do, I mean I'm on Yelp specifically NOT to call a bunch of companies), it was a breath of fresh air to have a proactive guy reach out and get things set up. I will definitely consider Scott Nelson Electric in the future for my electrical needs.

Mike was able to help me over the phone fix a track lighting system that had a transformer that tripped. Cannot say enough great things about Mike and his responsiveness! Not to mention my lights are back to working and it didn't cost me anything. Highly Recommend!

So glad I found Marcin. He has been my go- to electrician for many years now. He is prompt in responding to  requests for various electrical work at my home.  Always on time for appointments  and even contacts me if he will be able arrive earlier than our scheduled time.  Great work at reasonable prices.  Neat, clean never leaves anything for me to clean up when the job is done. Very knowledgeable and takes time to explain how he will be doing the job.  
I have referred Marcin to my daughter and son-in-law and also a couple of my friends. They were glad I did!
All that said, I will continue to use him any time I need electrical work done at my home.  Keep up the great work Marcin! You're #1 in my book.

Justin was our main contact for a complete re-wire and fixture installation, new fuses/circuits for a two flat in the city. He gave us a wonderful deal and provided us with the work we asked for and more! I wouldn't go to anyone else -- even though their specialty is in generators.

Penco did everything we requested and came out in a timely manner and blocked us for a week on their time schedule.
They are prompt, clean, and effective as a team. Usually arriving from 8-8:30am until 3-4pm.

Edgar was our main worker (came in and out most of the hours and work) and he did a fabulous job in keeping us posted and informed about what they were doing and when. He really works for this company and if I could give him 10 stars, I would.

If you ever decide to get electrical work done, just clear a path for them to work, be cool people and move your personal items away so they can do their job.

Obviously cutting holes in walls and directing and re-directing outlets is a must when and where you want them to be - so as clientele- be prepared for that.

Even if you didn't want walls cuts, they really do their best to be minimally invasive because we have three newly painted and redecorated rooms, and they really respected the boundaries of our newly constructed area.

Other than that we told them to have at it.

AND.... Yes, they do pick up after themselves when they're done, I even offered to do it myself to help them keep going or leave early for their day but they truly insisted on leaving things the way they were when they came in.

Another few guys that came in were
Connor (sp) and Tony - very helpful and friendly group of guys - very knowledgeable and efficient. (Came in 2-3 days out of the 5)

There was someone else that was like an apprentice - I believe Brian - a young guy fresh out of school type kid - he was like Edgar's sidekick - wasn't here the last day
but if I had any say in his future employment, I'd say, teach him and keep him - definitely shows a lot of potential for this company.

If we ever needed another group of guys, or would recommend them to someone - Choose Penco!

Chris runs a great business that really fills a need in Chicago. We needed one wall painted, and when I contacted painters they seemed put off by the small size of the job and gave me lofty quotes. Chris specializes in smaller jobs, so his quote was much more reasonable. He had availability really soon, and he brought every single supply other than the paint which I already owned. Most importantly, the project turned out awesome. I'd use Chris again in a heartbeat!

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.

Hello,

Sam came to my home to add a 220 line for a hot tub I had installed.  the work was impeccable and he took the time to explain things, did my special requests, and even came back to hook up the hot tub after they delivered it as part of my job. he is very reasonable and quick to respond.

We were having a problem with a breaker tripping and our regular electrician was out of town.  I was told the service call would be $49 plus parts.  Eddie came out and said it would be $266 to diagnose the problem which consisted of him feeling outlets to see if they felt warm.  He was not able to find a problem and I had to pay $266.  My regular electrician came out and was able to locate and correct the problem immediately.  Thanks for nothing Mr. Mighty!

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.

Very fair pricing and prompt, efficient service.  The owner, Tom Peck, is great to deal with.  He does a great job in a fast and efficient manner.
