Best Virtual Consultations in Chicago IL

For all you single women, first time homeowners, who are getting ripped off out there, search no more. Chris is an honest professional. He's done mutliple jobs at my place now and trust me, I've searched the quotes. His work is clean, up to code, and even educates me on the do's and don'ts. For me, this goes a long way. His communication is exceptional, his thoroughness is easily visible, and he keeps it real. when you find a good contractor you share him, because there are a lot of contractors out there that are so demanding and the job is total trash ass. That's the worst.

Very happy with the work Tweaks & Finishes did. We've used them multiple times to hang lamps, switch out fixtures, and switch out switches. They were easy to get a hold of, easy to schedule, and kept us informed of what they were doing as they were doing it. They made some recommendations for our fixtures and switches to work more efficiently. They completed the work quickly and professionally. Will continue to use them for any electrical work.

Neville was awesome! Easy to communicate with via text, and fixed our light fixture quickly. Definitely would use Blacklite again.

Outstanding very communicative on time reliable all above in every category.  Always answers always explains what is needled and why

Victor was one of the most competitive bids for the outlet that I needed for my tesla.
I have an older house that requires a lot of extra detail and he was able to accomplish with 0 problems. He is friendly and knowledgeable and that is why I chose him over others.
Thank you for all your help

We have a 1930s house with 1930s plumbing and our bathtub wasn't draining properly. The problem was that the previous owners of the house hadn't bothered to maintain the pipes in so long, the trap had rusted itself shut. Jose did a fantastic job in fixing the issue. He was also great about answering any question I had. Their prices are fair and I greatly appreciate that they list out everything that comes with that pricing. I will definitely be using them again for anything that comes up.

A few weeks ago, a few outlets and lights suddenly stopped working in our house. This week, I finally had two companies lined up for estimates. The first was a big local company called ABC Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric. He quoted us $2,800. I found the second company, LMV Electrical, from a Craigslist ad. He arrived to provide an estimate but ended up staying for only 45 mins and fixing all the problems. He charged me $100.  Enough said.

After buying a new stackable washer and dryer unit for our condo, we realized after it was installed that we needed a new electric outlet to accommodate the new unit. We researched many electricians and found Hardt Electric who received top reviews on Angie's List. Todd Connaughton scheduled a visit within a few days of our call. He came in the pouring rain, helped us move out the washer and dryer unit, and installed the new outlet. Additionally, without us asking, he also rewired and fixed some mismatched wires in our unit. He was very professional and just an overall nice guy. He is not only good at what he does but enjoys his work. I would highly recommend this company and in particular Todd to anyone who needs an electrician. I would seek their services again the future.

I was pretty desperate to get someone in to fix my tenant's sink while I was out of town - you can see in the photos it separated from the counter and was just kind of hanging there. Mo was quick to respond and reliable, and was able to come out right away to assess the situation. I was out of town with minimal service and he was very understanding about the whole situation. He still took the time to explain what was going on with the sink transparently and honestly, and his price was extremely reasonable. Turns out whoever initially installed the sink didn't do it properly, but Mo was able to correct the issues and get functioning better than before. He spent an entire day in my tenants apartment to get their sink fixed up for them. I really appreciate his open communication and his work through the process. I will definitely reach out to him in the future for other maintenance work around the house.

They installed a ceiling fan in one of our rooms. Our kids room which is also the hottest room in the house. The job ended up being much more difficult than anticipated because of some poorly done existing wiring. Jeff was awesome with us though. So professional. So kind. He did a tremendous job. Would use him anytime. Highly recommended.

MJP Electric installed can lights and a chandelier in our house. He offered great service, great pricing, and exceptional work! I will be hiring him for all of my electrical work in the future.

OK  Let me start by saying I live in Los Angeles.  My mother in law is in Glenview, Il and was having some issues with some of her power intermittently going out and then she would have my brother in law come over and reset the breaker.  I am pretty knowledgeable about home electric so I called around to get some estimates for her.  I ended up speaking with Paul.  They weren't the cheapest but they weren't the most expensive either.  He didn't know my level of knowledge (I have wired multiple homes here and in Mexico) but he didn't try to BS me at all.  He was straight forward on pricing and work.  
Anyway, they sent a tech out to my mother in laws and diagnosed a flaky breaker within the first ten minutes.  I had asked for a call when they figured it out and Paul called me to tell me what the issue was. Since they had only been there about 15 minutes and there is a minimum billing time I figured I'd ask if the tech could install a dimmer for her dinning room table while he was there.  The had a dimmer switch in the truck and installed it and only charged for the part.
Maybe this is the norm for Chicago but we don't get that level of integrity her in CA.  I'm glad to know I have someone I can call for issue at my mother in laws house.
 I wish I knew the techs name as my Mother in law said he was really nice (she is 89)  but I never got it.

I had a highly positive experience with Donatello Electric yesterday. I'm in the midst of preparing my residence to become a rental unit and have been switching out some light fixtures. To do that, I had to turn off the power at the circuit breaker. I have pretty old circuit breaker, so when I switched off the circuits I wasn't able to switch them back on again. It was getting dark, and I still have more work to do on the house but no light. I called Don. He sent Mike and Tim out within the hour. Within the next hour and 15 minutes, Mike and Tim work diligently to fix the problem. They worked professionally and efficiently to solve the problem. I would definitely call them again.

Be aware that paying by Credit Card May add a 3% charge, but they accept checks too.

Prolite is one of the subcontractors working on my home remodel. They came and installed two ceiling fans for me and did the wiring for my bathroom remodel. Matt and Jack are exactly the professionals you'd want - knowledgeable, conscientious, and trustworthy about working in your home. I will use them in the future for my electrical needs.

Roberts the man! Called OneStop after a visit from a big HVAC company. What seemed to be the ignitor not working in the furnace, the big HVAC company said it was my heat exchanger. He removed a panel stuck his finger in and said he felt cracks and wam, I needed a new furnace.

Called Robert and told him what happened. He said to let him look and to take a picture of the furnace label (model, serial #, etc...). He came by and tested the ignitor. It's fried. Replaced and we have heat again. Furnace is older, but it lives another day thanks to One Stop! When the need arrives for a new furnace, I'll be giving OneStop a call.

Highly recommend! Mike came by within an hour of me connecting with him to install an outlet for my EV. He explained the process and walked me through it step by step just so I'm aware. I was so impressed, I asked him to work on more electrical stuff around our condo and he's coming back to do those jobs.

I normally don't write reviews, but Omar did an excellent job and the price was reasonable, I would definitely recommend this company.  He was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done and fixed it in an hour.

Our Generac whole house generator failed to come on during a multi-hour power outage on a Sunday morning. The Generac support line recommended AL Electric as the closest dealer. Andrey picked up the phone after two rings, came out within an hour, and had our generator running within 2 minutes. (The generator had an error code that required dealer service.) His charge for an emergency visit on a Sunday morning was very reasonable and he will be coming back later in the week to do full maintenance on the unit. As the Generac support person said, you need to have a dealer do maintenance on it yearly so AL Electric will be our regular service. Andrey is also very friendly and knowledgeable.
