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.)

Eddie (owner) returned my call immediately. We had a light switch that had, in a very short time period, become a fire hazard. Although he and his team had a full schedule he worked us in very quickly. He was at our home around noon, quickly replaced the bad switch and was gone. Very efficient, professional and courteous. Would recommend.

I like using local companies, they replaced the circuit box.  Adequate job, cost more than estimate due to adding another task (waterproofing, needed and glad they did it, that had been my problem), maybe they couldn't know.  BUT... BIG WARNING  They put all the circuits randomly, not where they had been before.  It took me a long time to map out which circuit was which room originally when I had a wife, now alone it will be a huge task, going up and down stairs countless times.  So if  you have a circuit box replaced, you may want to tell them to put the new circuits where the old ones were.  I did have them marked (he said not) though I had moved a few when the old one failed and that position was corroded so I had to put in the new breaker in a different location.  But I knew which ones I had moved, so didn't need the markings on those.

Last evening (Sunday) , my furnace quit working and I was unable to determine the problem.  First thing Monday morning I called Arnold Electric and spoke to Pam who told me that the earliest they could send someone out would be Wednesday.  However, when she found out I was without heat in my home, she said she would call Jack to see what they might be able to do.  Within 1 hour, I had a call back from Pam and a call from Jack who told me he would be able to come by later in the day.  Jack was able to come by and was able to diagnose and fix the problem.  Arnold electric is a pleasure to do business with and I will continue to recommend them for any job requiring an electrician.

We had a really great experience working with Eligio and Laura! I posted about our impossible back door that had swelled and shifted over the years. He was very quick to respond, gave a very fair flat rate, was flexible with our time constraints and showed up promptly next day to fix it! We've had two people not show up to give us an estimate so I was relieved when they arrived! They looked over the problem, explained what they could do to fix it, then worked quickly to correct the problem! They even went above and beyond to realign hardware for no additional charge! The door opens and closes SO smoothly which it's never done since we bought! I will definitely keep their number and use them again in the future! It was an absolute pleasure working with them!

Tried to get last minute outlets installed for my tv wall mounts.  They responded quickly and gave a fair price and was able to come out next day to the installation.  They were quick and cleaned after themselves.  Definitely would use them again for other electrical services.

GREAT COMPANY TO WORK WITH!!  Provided me with a piece of mind when preparing our 100 year old home ready for closing sale.   Great communication on the service provided and proposed service.  Pricing very competitive.

Fast and courteous service!  I've had a couple of calls out for electrical service in my unit after a serious roof leak.  I've  been impressed with the level of service and diligence at finding the root cause of the electrical issues.

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.

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.

THIEF !  LIAR!  CHEAT!  THIEF!  LIAR!  CHEAT!
Dino asked for 1/2 upfront 500$ night before job.  Then didn't show up day of !  Didn't answer phone!  Or text for 24 hours!   Next day after I canceled payment with pay pal he called to say couldn't do job with out the money that we have in limbo now?  And he caught a 24 hour bug ! (After doing what ever he does Friday nights!) Didn't apologize at all for anything .  In fact he then told me he would return money but he had to call back all the other clients that called him FIRST!  I had to 3 way him and pay pal to get him to believe me telling him  that he could return money without it taking 30 days!   Then he did not before starting to sware over the phone that I can just get my money and pay him in check.   Careful he can get a temper!   This morning PayPal informed me his return was denied due to INSUFFICIENT FUNDS !  6 days after I payed him he still didn't have my money knowing the return was coming!!  Never mentioned he spent the money.  I gave him every chance to at least be honest and he lied the whole way.  He texted us this morning in response to us Leaving a very unhappy message . And He texted back That we screw** him!!!  ?   And he refused tell us where are money went.      
BEWARE.  SCAM ARTIST.   LIAR.   CHEAT!!!!!!

- 100 STARS!!!!!!   Hope I get my money back
So I can get electric for my a/c for my 5 month old baby's before a heat wave!!!!  
Thanks Dino !
Dean Hightower. Still waiting on a apology and the truth!

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!!!!!!!!

This is the second time I have used their services, the first was perfect.  The second time I purchased a certificate through Yelp in early November.  They have been paid in full because it was (1) certificate to submit, Ed Smith said he'd come back to do the panel schedules, I trusted him because the first service was great.  He sent someone out to work on the the panel schedules but  to date the job is still incomplete, I still do not have the schedules even after making NUMEROUS phone calls and text messages to Ed.  In addition to that he never covered an outlet he installed.  I asked him what the problem was and he had no answer except he claims that he sent someone out twice, I gave him (2) different email addresses and haven't received one from him.  Even though, he knows my address and he could just mail out a hard copy.    I would not recommend this company to anyone, because he will take you for a ride, bottom line job is incomplete.
