Best in Chicago IL

One of the only union electricians in the Channahon area that does RESIDENTIAL work.
Mr. Paxson did an excellent job!  We had three receptacles, two fans, and three switches installed.  Mr. Paxson gave us a very good estimate, and stayed in contact with us as we decided what to have done.  
On the day the work was completed he showed up on time.  
All of the work is top notch!
As the work was completed he kept the area very clean.
Everything was done within three hours.
Please see the photos and video I have posted.
If you want it done right the first time call him.
- I know good electrical work.
(I myself was in the electrical union previously.)

If you are looking for an honest electrician that knows his job, look no further than Eddie. I had reached out to Electra City to get 3 floodlights replaced. Eddie not only answered promptly and gave a firm quote, but was able to accommodate us on short notice due to a last minute cancellation. After reviewing the existing lights, he recommended switching out only 2 at this time and explained why. Despite the job taking a little longer than expected due to a small complication, Eddie honored the original estimate (that type of integrity is hard to come by these days). Without doubt, Eddie will be our go-to person for all our electrical needs. We wish him well!

If you are looking for honest hard working electricians this is the place to call. I have been using them for at least 15 years and would trust them 100%. They are the type of guys I have no problem leaving in my house alone if I needed to run out while they were working. The work is good and they will not sell you something you don't need.

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.

We hired Eligio to install tile in our kitchen. It was a medium-sized job on four walls using subway tile but required quite a bit of attention because of the high level of visibility.

He was very meticulous about his work and ensured that everything was measured and installed very carefully. He was kind, courteous, clean, and was very respectful in our busy home. The work was excellent, and we were very happy with the quality of his work. He spends the time necessary to do the job correctly rather than so many other contractors who do rush jobs without paying attention to details. I highly recommend him.

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.

Had a GFCI trip during the night for no apparent reason, nothing running at the time.
Called to request that it be checked out. Showed up within 20 minutes, did a thorough evaluation and very reassuring.
Will definitely add to my address book for future use.

Brian completed running electric to my recently finished attic. What a job!! Returned calls timely, price as quoted and so professional. Highly recommend!!!

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 would never recommend Advance Area Service to anyone! The worker
who appears to be the person who operates this business was extremely
rude, and unprofessional. I recommended his services to assist an elderly family member, and he treated her like crap. He was rude, disrespectful, and
crass. He speaks to his customers with a negative tone and does not like
you asking him questions about the job you paid him for. He takes advantage of elderly people, by taking their money and informing them if there is a problem with his work, he will continue to charge them if he has to come back to correct his mistakes or inadequacies. He is particularly impolite to women, especially elderly ones. Be aware of this business and its services!!!!!!!!

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.
