Best Businesses in Illinois

Mr Paxson was very professional. He arrived on time, provided a written estimate via email, followed his estimate, was polite, cleaned up his mess... fantastic experience!

Eddie (owner) and his team and fantastic.  Called him for a emergency wiring issue I had.  He fixed that and also identified another critical wiring issue.  He is very thorough and also explains the process.  I would highly recommend calling him for anything.  He's also very engaged with the future of electricity (solar power). If you are considering something small to a larger project I highly recommend!  I'm going to have him come back and help me solar power the house!  

I've worked with a number of folks in the trade. This is one of the best experiences I've had.

Hire Electra City!!!

We have been having issues with the fuse going out in the bedroom. We had these guys come out to see what was the issue. The technician told us that there is a bad appliance plugged in. Well, we knew this. He didn't really try to find the root cause of this, even though the service call charge was a hefty $115. The technician should have spent at least a few minutes to determine the cause to the best of his ability if they are charging this much just to come out.

When we received the bill, it indicates that there is a 13% charge to use a credit card! Do you expect people to mail checks in?? This is clearly not the way to do business in 2015. Will not be using them again.

Great service and professionalism. John and Pete were wonderful. Did the work as promised and answered all questions. And they were on time and cleaned up! Could not ask for a better experience. Will definitely be using them for future projects.

I had accidentally tiled over the spot on the electrical outlet where you attach one side of the cover on the kitchen backsplash. With my property sale inspection in a few days, I needed a handyman to fix my DIY blunder ASAP. Eligio was able to fix it quickly and the turnaround time from request to completion was less than 24 hours.  I recommend him and his business highly!

We had an electric heater and new blow dryer on at the same time tripping a circuit breaker that was overloaded and warm to touch. He was available quickly and explained the situation. I would call him again for any other electrical need.

This is the company to call!   We had a problem with some outlets that two family electricians and a reputable handyman could not find or fix. We called Olson on Monday morning, and from that first call to Steve I was obvious that  he fully understood the issue and had experience with correcting it.  He gave us a time estimate for later that same day, and exceeded even that.  

I called at 9, the technician arrived at 1:30, and by 2:30 the problem was solved.

When Paul arrived, he was very polite and professional. The company had discussed what was necessary, so he arrived with knowledge of what was required, and got right to work.  

I cannot stress enough the high degree of competence, and professionalism, displayed by everyone at Olson, and the price was very fair.  

Save yourself the worry and hassle and just call Olson.

I recently had an emergency situation and was able to reach these guys. At the time I would have let anybody help me but I'm glad they answered. It turns out the problem was minor and they were honest enough to tell me that. I appreciate the honesty and great service.

Affordable prices and professional work. 5 star electrical company! I will definitely use them again.

Perfect! Had some kitchen lighting installed. Aspire was prompt, creative and knew exactly how to complete my project. After they left, there was no evidence that work had been done - other than the lighting! No mess, no cleanup for me. Highly recommended.

If a zero was possible, that is what I would give this contractor.  I hired him to install under cabinet lights.  He came out with an obviously untrained apprentice who did all of the work while he sat and barked out orders -- screaming at him much of the time.  At one point the apprentice was lost and did not know what to do.  Rather than helping him, he responded -- figure it out idiot and sat there staring at him.  Eventually, I started helping the apprentice myself.  He then billed me over a $1000.  Shortly after I received the bill, he called demanding payment.  I explained that I felt I was overbilled.  But, I agreed to pay him $700 that night if he would consider it payment in full.  He agreed, but has continued sending me invoices for allegedly past due amounts and has even filed a mechanics lien on my house.  Do not use this bully.

Dino was great to work with!! We needed a lot of work done at our church. Outside lights, ceiling fans, install a light in a closet and replace fluorescent lights with LED. His work was top notch. He even was nice enough to pick up the ceiling fans I ordered from Home Depot. I would not trust anyone else to do my electrical work.

I hired Advanced Area Serv Corp to do the complete wiring for my 900 Sq Ft Master Bedroom Suite Addition. They were totally awesome! They accommodated my schedule and arrived on time. They completed the work on time and diligently cleaned behind themselves. I was impressed with their professionalism and would highly recommend them to all my family and friends

Prompt, Courteous and Affordable Service

After struggling with trying to get a tripped switch to work, I conceded defeat and came to Yelp! to look for a local electrician. As I called the number, I was thinking that I would get a response the next day. Imagine when I received a call back less than two hours later! Once having received the call, though, I thought for sure that I would be told that there would be an opening available tomorrow afternoon or something like that. No, much to my incredible surprise, I was asked if it would be okay to arrive in 30-45 minutes. After the lights being out in half the house for two days, the answer was a resounding Yes!.

Mr. Smith arrived at my house by 8:30 pm. He saw the junction box, pulled off the cover, and immediately diagnosed the problem as a burnt wire and what he called a double-tap. It appeared that a switch had burnt out before and had not been replaced. So the wire meant for that switch was put on another one that was already occupied. Keep that in place for 13 years and we end up with a switch that eventually got burnt out.

Two new switches, correct wiring, 15 minutes and less than $115 later, the electricity was back in the house and I can now use my baseboard heater and my hair dryer without fear of my lights going out. I would definitely recommend them for  your electrical needs.
