"We asked Jose from Elite Power to install an EV charging station for a Ford Mach e. Jose provided a competitive quote and did a great job installing the charging station in our garage. He and his team were knowledgeable, courteous and left a clean work area. Jose ensured the station and the related app were working properly before he left. The charging station has been working fine since the installation. We would highly recommend Elite for your electrical needs."

"Red Chicago installed a tin ceiling in my home and it looks great! From start to finish my experience with David and Vijay was excellent. They responded to my inquiry promptly, came to inspect the job when they said they would and did the installation at a time most convenient for me. They were also quite fastidious about cleaning up when they were done. I find this to be a very professional organization and I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to family and friends."

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesChicago Electricians are rated 4.8 out of 5 based on 435 reviews of 435 pros.
