Best in Chicago IL

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!!!

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.

Jack is a top notch electrician! You can tell he takes pride in his work.
He put in 2 kitchen outlets, a dimmer switch in the bedroom and track lighting.  The work was done in no time at all, fast and efficient and fair price too. I will use him again for sure.
Highly recommended!

My dining room light went out suddenly and I needed to have a flood light replaced. This happened on a Saturday, Eligio returned my inquiry that same day and came out on a Sunday afternoon. Great young man. Fast, courteous and reasonable. He far exceeded my expectation. I already have him lined up to do other projects around my home!!! I truly appreciate him coming out and getting the work done. Quality!

AJ and his team were absolutely superb. I've used electricians in Chicagoland before and AJ was simply top notch. From customer service to pricing, to the efficiency with which the crew worked, and the fantastic outcome, our experience was outstanding. AJ's team upgraded our 100 AMP panel to a new 200 AMP panel and installed two electric car chargers. Kudos to Gadertech Electric!

Excellent service. Excellent communication. They worked with my schedule instead of forcing me to work with theirs. Very friendly and accommodating. I would use them again

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.

I agree with the previous review. Don't be wary of this guy. Just don't do business with him. He also asked us for 60% in advance. OK, I wasn't born yesterday. Nobody asks for 60% in advance. I asked him why it was so high. He said he had to buy supplies. We were installing lighting that we purchased. So what are we talking about - some electrical boxes and some wire?
He was supposed to be at our house at 10am. He called at 9:45 and said that he had some calls that delayed him and that he'd be about 2 hours late. He showed up at 12:30. Then he said that the lights (that I purchased from a reputable lighting company) were no good and that he couldn't install them. I went out to Home Depot and purchased 3 lights for the front closet. He didn't even try to put those in. He just left and said to call him when I had lights for the other closets. Why didn't he even try to put the other light in?
I went out that night and purchased 3 other lights from the lighting company we had previously been to and called Dino to let him know that we had new lighting. We set up an appointment for 1pm on Friday. Dino texted me on Thursday night to confirm that we were still on for Friday. I told him that we were still on.
At 11:26 Dino texted me that he had an emergency panel upgrade and that he would be 2 hours late. 2 hours late seems to be standard for him. Now I am not one of those people who carry my phone with me everywhere I go so I was unable to respond immediately to Dino. By the time I responded to him, he said that he had already made other plans and that he couldn't be sitting around waiting for my reply. Oh, sitting around like I had done for 2 days waiting for him to show up?
He offered to come to the house at 8am the next day (Saturday). Although I was extremely leery at this point, I told him that he could come to the house and finish the job. I told him that I expected him at 8am and that this was his final chance to do the job.
He went ballistic (just as the previous reviewer said, this nut job has a temper) and told me to keep the job and get somebody else to do it. Then he told me that he was going to put a lien on the house for the work done. Then he said that he was going to call the village because I didn't get permits. Let's see, if I needed permits to put lights in, don't you think my licensed electrician should have told me that?
Stay far, far away from this lunatic.

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

Kinslow Smith-----great for all your electrical needs!  Ed is WONDERFUL!  Today was an outstanding, productive day all around  from start to finish------ without a minute wasted.  I am still beaming (no pun intended) as I look around my apartment at all the work they did for me today.  

First, I received a reminder email from Ed the night before, alerting me of the time that they were going to start.  The next day, Ed and his helper arrived early---yes, early!--- and ready to go to work on my list of 21 miscellaneous and sundry electrical/lighting jobs.  Unlike many electricians that baulk at certain jobs, Ed seemed actually to enjoy the challenge and the diversity of the projects.  He stopped at nothing to get each and every job done, working straight through until all the work was completed.

He is extremely knowledgeable and patient and will explain what he is doing before he does it (if you want to hear it, as I did).  Whatever I was missing in the way of parts to complete a task, he had in his truck.  You can tell that he really loves what he does and takes great pride in his work...no matter how small the job is.  His helper exhibited the same work ethic and was delightful to have around.  They completely cleaned up after themselves and left the apartment just as it was when they arrived.  

Aside from the phenomenal electrical work done, what stands out most for me is the integrity of this man.  After you meet him and watch him work for just a short time, you know that you are dealing with a good, honest, hardworking individual.  I actually had fun today and told them that I never knew that something like electrical work could make me so happy! :)  
This whole experience was a complete and absolute pleasure.
