Best Lighting Repair in Chicago IL

Wow, fast response, easy communication and great work. Replaced an old bathroom fan that to me seemed a little tricky to get old one out and new one to fit. Stefan did it in 45 minutes. Arrived on time, work quietly and quickly. Going to have him do a light fixture too.  Thank you. Highly recommend him.

We moved to a row house in Lincoln Park. The row house was built in 1888 and had some significant electrical issues including and not least of which was not being up to code. Christian and Romero were on time, possessed great attitudes and were a pleasure to work with on top of being excellent electricians. They were professional, efficient, and it was evident that they take great pride in their craft - as they should! The both of them went above and beyond and we are so impressed. I would gladly work with Sims and Sons again, and I am grateful to have found a company and team that makes customer service such a priority. Truly outstanding, top notch work! Thank you, Christian and Romero!

This review is long overdue.  I have used T & D Electrical for my condo building work as well as for work in my own condo.  I would not ever call or have anyone else other than them to do any electrical work.  Rodrigo did the majority of the work in my condo and building and he is phenomenal.  Marianne in the front office is always spot on and very responsive and incredibly helpful.  Marcus, the owner, is very involved as well and I can tell this company is one that really cares about quality and making sure everything is done correctly and what one is expecting.

I had a lot of fixtures from ceiling fans moved to different rooms, new ones purchased, recessed lighting changed out, under cabinet lighting installed, outlets fixed, track lighting installed, dimmers fixed/installed and various other trouble shooting items and fixes done.  I had a lot of construction done in my condo, and some items had to be done at various points in time during that construction, and T & D were very flexible and able to send Rodrigo and one time David, out to make sure all progressed as it needed to be.  They helped us order many fixtures from a lighting store they work with, and held on to them while I was having all the work done then delivered them to my home when they were called back when construction was done.  Rodrigo put in a 12 hour day in my condo at one point to make sure everything was done well and correctly.  He has great skill and I can tell he really enjoys what he does.  He more than happily answered all the questions I had while he was working and showed genuine care about making sure everything was done how I wanted and correctly.  

After all was done, Marianne followed up to make sure the work was finished and if there were any other issues.  A few things came up, and Rodrigo came back to fix them with no other issues.  They are incredibly responsive and want to truly make sure it is a job well done.  If anything is needed in the future, I will most definitely use T & D Electrical as well as recommend them to anyone needing any electrical work done.

Ted and his son were great!  Ted was very responsive in getting me a quote and setting up an appointment time.  He confirmed with me the day of, and showed up on time.  He installed light fixtures and changed a switch for me.  Pointed something out that would have been a huge mistake on my part as to the type of lighting fixture that I had purchased.  Very friendly guys, I will not hesitate in contacting them again in the future for any electrical work.

Joe is still the absolute best electrician around! If you have an older home (ours are over 100+) and have knob and wire he will know how to take care of  it.  He's installed numerous ceiling fans, ran an outlet to directly behind our mounted tv to hid the cords and most recently added an additional breaker.  His pricing can't be beat and he's fast, trustworthy and all around good guy.  

In the future I plan on hiring him again to instal an electric power supply for our smart car - something he's getting more and more jobs doing as of late.

Don't hesitate to hire him!

So I just purchased a new home and having some circuit breaker issues. Found Chris on Yelp very nice guy. Very responsive. Came right out, Fix the issue under 15 minutes so I will definitely be calling him back out to finish the work, Definitely give Chris a call or give him a chance if you are having any type of issues with circuit breakers or electrical issues definitely recommend this business. Thanks, Chris

Fixer is amazing.  They can do anything, and always do it well with a smile!!  I so very much appreciate having help with things I can't do or don't think I can do well ... And I know that it will be a job well done.

Hm.  I'm not sure if this company ever served me, but I ended up in a spot on the Yelp website where I had to leave a review or at least stars... so 5 stars or zero stars?  I'm more of a five star person, so there you go.

Ryan responded right away and was at our house in about an hour.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and even made a follow up phone call to provide additional advice on how to handle the ComEd when they arrived and started their work.  Professional, personable, and a pleasure to work with.  Also reasonable.  Definitely recommend him.

I used Highlights when my last electrician basically knew nothing.  Highlights pointed out mistakes I didn't even realize.  These guys are SUPER professional, on time, very friendly, responsible and honestly, the best electricians in Chicago.  I've dealt with many contractors, what a pain.  But Boz the owner is awesome.  They redid my kitchen, my living room, bedroom, new electrical panel.... They warned me that the last guy installed it such that I could have a fire.  I'm so glad they did the work, and they were totally reasonably priced.

We are in the process of tearing down a house we recently purchased, and hired Rogelio at Alex Electrical to cut the main electrical line from the pole to the house, as well as remove the cable lines, the electric meter, and the electric box in the house. Rogelio was extremely knowledgeable, very responsive, professional, and got the job done in less time than the estimate. He also mentioned that his company installs outlets, light fixtures, etc. We will definitely be hiring him again in the future for any electrical needs we have. Thank you, Rogelio.

We had several projects that we've been putting off for a while. We needed to move an outlet to a different wall, we had a switch in the bedroom that didn't work, needed to add lighting and add an outlet for a mounted TV. Jose was very quick to respond to me, provided a quote before he came so I knew what to expect, and was flexible when I wanted to add on tasks when they arrived. They fixed up our walls afterwards and worked very hard to keep things easy for us to paint. They were also very conscious to social distance when they came. I highly recommend their work, so glad that we got these items done finally!

Highly recommend Jake and his team for electrical projects large and small. Early on during COVID he installed a new outlet so we could relocate a desk and while there provided some options for adding light to our dimly lit basement. We finally contacted him for the basement work and he responded right away and was able to come within a few days. The basement looks fantastic and Jake went out of his way making multiple trips to stores looking for hard to find parts. Fair prices and high quality work!

Kudos for fast, friendly, and great service. I needed some electric work done with a short window to get it finished. The reply to my text was quick. Within an hour an appointment was set for 3 days later which is when I was available. Johnny showed prompt. Got the job done and gave me some great ideas for other remodeling questions. Thanks guys. You are in my phone list and will pass along your great job to others in need of electrical work.

We hired Kinetic Energy in January, 2016 to install a new light fixture in the ceiling of the entry foyer of our house, and to deal with the old knob and tube wiring that was connected to the old light fixture. That kind of wiring was commonly installed in old houses like ours (about 110 year old). It is insulated with rubberized cloth. As a result, the crew had to replace it not only where it connected to the ceiing light fixture, but also to other outlets that connected to the same breaker (including the ceiling light over the front porch).

Kinetic's owner, Ted, is friendly, candid and experienced with working in old homes.  He got the permit and arranged for the two later inspections (rough and final). The Oak Park electrical inspector promptly approved the work when it was done,

    His friendly crew members generally arrived on time, and worked steadily. Because they had to cut holes in the foyer ceiling made of drywall, the work generated dust. As a result, the crew each day covered the  floor with a tarp and put up plastic sheeting over the entry to the living room from the foyer. They cleaned up well at the end of each workday, which we greatly appreciated. The crew also liked Ted. He had recently bought for them sturdy red jackets which had battery operated warmers - especially nice for any outdoor work they did in the winter.

Honest, transparent about costs, and delivered excellent work on time for installing an electric car charger. He looked up specs on the car company website, going the extra mile to ensure he did the best work.

Frank is very professional.  Showed up when he said he would, explained what he was doing, and even provided a lower price than what he first quoted.  I will definitely call him again for any electrical job.  Highly recommend!

Never showed up for my scheduled 7:30am appointment. Never returned my call to see if they were coming. Unprofessional. I took the day off to have them come do a half day of work at my home.

Awesome service. Super helpful.  He just gets done what needs to be done and isn't freaked out about messy projects. Mike helped me with 2 projects in the past - I needed a backup generator wired up to my garage sub-panel and his crew got it done quickly.

I also had a small basement water leak behind another home's electrical box - so I needed an electrician and leak sealer present at the same time. Mike was able to work with our schedules to get the job done - he removed the entire box and gave us access to the leak to seal up, then he re-assembled it back to normal.  Really happy with his old school style of getting things done.

I needed an electrician to install sconces at my place. Victor did an awesome job: he was quick, very efficient and the price was very affordable. I definitely recommend him and I will work with Victor again,
