Chicago Lightning Protection System Installation

Fantastic! Tim was on time, completed the work lightning fast, and it looks fantastic. I would definitely recommend this company to everyone!

Great. Very happy with the work and end results. Called him back to have some bulbs replaced. Great service

It went great. Rafal did his job well, quickly and left no mess behind. I am one very happy customer.

THEY CAME WITHIN 2 HOURS OF INITIAL PHONE CALL AND REPAIRED EVERYTHING IN ONE AFTERNOON INCLUDING WORK IN CRAWL SPACE UNDER HOUSE. VERY PROFESSIONAL. WE WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN.

Exceed expectation!! Good communication, prompt, very reasonably price. Andy goes above and beyond. Install additional conduit and gfci outlet at no additional charge. Would definitely use AGC service again.

D & S is one of two authorized Casablanca repair companies in the area, and they also came recommended by a local dealer. It took a day to call back, but once he did, they scheduled service very quickly. The day the repair person came out, we ended up having an electrical problem having nothing to do with the fan or anything the repair person did, causing him to be unable to complete his work because no power was going to the unit. They did not charge us for this extra visit and told us to call when the whole-house electrical issue was resolved. We got the electrical issues resolved and called, and they were able to come back out within a week (they were waiting on a part). The repair was a little more expensive than anticipated (by $35) because the circuit board replacement required a newer wall control unit than what we had (fan was manufactured in 1997), but everything was done well and works fine. I would definitely use D & S again if we were to add a fan in another room.

Outstanding service. Russell came out on a Saturday to help evaluate damage as a result of a severe lightning storm. He was professional and very pleasant to work with. He did not try to sell me anything I didn't need and is very honest. I am hiring him to do other work and have recommended him to others needing an electrician.

We had to have our whole house rewired after a lightning strike and fire. Kordick did a great job. I loved the electricians who worked in our house, they were respectful, neat and skilled. They worked quickly and took care of everything, including some nice upgrades where we had outdated fixtures. I can't recommend them highly enough.

SAFE Electrical has just been a joy to work with. After lightning struck a tree causing a large branch to fall, pulling the electrical wires and electrical panel from the house, the team worked quickly to mitigate any immediate dangers by cutting tree limbs and checking the electrical connectivity to the house. Once the damage was fully assessed, the team got to work installing a new metering system, riser and grounding rod. In addition, they cut and removed the remaining tree limbs that fell during the storm. Mitch and his team were great to work with and I would highly recommend working with this team on your electrical needs–emergency or not!

We had a big storm and lightning actually hit our home. We called that evening about 8:00 P.M and they called us back within the hour. Even though they were also without power, they took care of their customers right away and they were out first thing in the morning at 6:30 to fix us right up. Within 4 hours of their arrival, we had electricity. They were courteous, receptive and kind with an understanding about our situation that was needed at the moment of crisis.

Bob came out the very next day. The problem was definitely perplexing; with his advanced circuit tracking device he determined there were actually 3 circuits with current on the common! It took a few hours to track down the source of the problem (a timer switch for external lights, that apparently went out during a lightning storm; and a loose wiring connection in that outlet box). Ultimately he fully fixed the problem, and finished installing the light I had started. I know I got a bargain based on the amount of time he spent. He is a good and honest man, and a skilled electrician. He also recommended a whole-house surge protector which I will be looking into. I'll definitely call him when I have electrician needs in the future.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. We have 17.7' vaulted ceilings in our living room, with two fans at the top of the vault. Some of the estimates we received for removing the old fans and installing new ones were astronomical. Andy actually came out to the house to get a look at our living room and to measure the ceiling height (the other estimates were given over the phone). On the date of service, the two-man team arrived on time. They were considerate of my floors, putting down drop cloths under the ladder. They worked quickly and safely, and cleaned up afterward. We will definitely be hiring them in the future to replace the lightning fixture in our dining area, as well as for any other electrical needs we may have.

After our house was hit by lightning on the Sunday of a holiday weekend, I was in need of an electrician to come out and check things out to make sure our home was safe to occupy, especially since we have a 5 month old son. I left phone messages with 3 contractors from Angie's List. One still hasn't returned my message. But this contractor returned my call within a few minutes and was at our home looking things over within the hour. He gave us an estimate and returned a few days later (as agreed upon) to do the work needed. His estimate and work were approved by our insurance company and we are pleased with the work he did and grateful for his immediate response.

The installation of new bathroom fans was straightforward but required more ceiling work than anticipated due to the incorrect installation of the old fans. I was able to assist Ron with installing the fans and that cut down the amount of labor. Overall, it was fast, priced right and Ron is professional, courteous and prompt. He will not promise something if he cannot deliver it as discussed (price and timing). We've used Ron in the past to inspect other goofy things we've found in our house during the remodel and he has been an invaluable asset to our project! We have used Ron's services for many projects: Installed 12 can lights in the Family Room Installed 4 can lights in the downstairs hall Installed new outlet and circuit in Family Room Installed 2 new bathroom fans Inspected house electrical wiring and replaced outlet after lightning strike ...as well as other miscellaneous repairs. We will continue to use Ron's services because he does exactly what we want at a price we can live with.

Everything went very well. The house was not compromised from the storm so schedule to have the work done was not a problem. All concerns that we had were addressed. The roof was done first while it still had a chance to seal from the heat of the sun. Several weeks later the siding was done. Each time we had a question, we emailed Andy and got a very quick response. The workmen were very good about cleaning up after themselves and with the exception of picking up about a 1/2 cup of nails/screws, there was nothing we had to do after they were finished. The job consisted of taking off the existing roof while taking care of the lightning rods and wiring that ran around the house, replacing it with new shingles and vents and installing 2 new vents so that the bathrooms could be vented out the roof instead of just running the vent pipe across the attic and having the end point toward a soffit vent. This had been a problem previously so we wanted to get it fixed while they were tearing the roof apart. One place on the east side of the roof looked like the shingles were bent up a little and not laying flat but when we contacted Andy, he assured us that would flatten and they'd check it when they came back for the siding and rectify any problem. It does appear less obvious now so we think that is happening. The siding was all taken off and a 1/4 inch of insulation was placed under the new siding. Since that raised the thickness of the wall past the trim boards, they put additional plywood on all of the trim areas in order to maintain the appropriate reveal. Then new vinyl siding was installed. In order to get to all of the siding, a large shed had to be moved. It was sandwiched in on the back and right side with less than a foot clearance between the sides of the shed and the house. On the left side was the air conditioning compressor with less than 3 inches distance between the compressor hoses and the shed. We discussed during the estimate about how that would be done and Andy and Arthur were certain they could move the shed and replace it. We (homeowner) ultimately decided to spend the money to move the compressor over about 4 feet rather than risk a problem. Nyberg did move the shed and put it back where it belonged with no problem. Aluminum was applied to all of the trim, new fascia and soffits were put on so that no painting would be needed going forward. There was one hiccup. When they completed the fascia and soffit on the three peaks at the front of the house, they left the 3 corbels (decorative scrolls made of wood). We had discussed these things specifically and they were supposed to be removed and aluminum would cover the place where they had been. We definitely didn't want these 3 painted (wrong color for current siding as well) items left to be maintained. When we contacted Arthur he came out to the house to discuss and agreed to bring the team back for a half day to correct. That was done and it looks great! Part of the cost was borne by the insurance company but about 20% was the homeowner's upgrades and responsibility. Nyberg knew exactly what the insurance company needed and provided a good estimate that was approved immediately. Mistakes can happen but the mark of a superior company is the effort and ability to fix any problems. Nyberg did a great job on the house. It looks fantastic. The one problem that we had was promptly fixed and that is the most anyone could ask. We'll definitely be calling on them again when another home in our family needs their skills.
