Chicago Outlet Installation

matt was great. He asked detail questions via email to estimate the work and the cost. We set up a time and he even sent a reminder the night before the job. On the day of the job, He arrived on time. Reviewed the proposed work and made practical suggestions, including not doing some if the work saying it wasn't necessary. It was great to get an honest expert opinion. He completed the work efficiently and with good quality. He was very respectful to clean up and wore booties in the house. Overall experience was great. I'd call Matt anytime I needed an electrician.

Wilson electric responds right away, gets you into their schedule to get you the services you need and are very punctual. I was also extremely happy with the ease in which they installed an electric outlet over our fireplace. I had several estimates and many others tried to complicate the whole matter, suggesting many holes would be made into the wall which would require a whole paint job, and tried charging way too high prices. Wilson electric was quick, straightforward and very efficient. They did the job neatly and did not make any holes except where the receptacles would be installed. We are very happy with them and will definitely call them again for future electrical work, as long as the price of the service is right.

They were very professional, giving me an accurate quote up front and also suggesting other upgrades like the new outlets. They were on time and the bathroom was spotless when they left.

My current microhood was hardwired to the electrical service in the cabinet above the stove. Apparently, due to the placement of the ventilation ductwork in front of the electrical wiring, the installers decided to hardwire the unit rather than move the outlet. The new unit requires an outlet. Rob quickly assessed the problem and placed a new outlet in a position accessible for installation of the new unit. He and his helper were here at the appointed time and finished this task within 30 minutes. Rob also discussed and provided advice about the undercabinet lighting. They were very professional and talked with me at the appropriate level of understanding -- a seemingly rare trait with contractors these days! Thanks, Rob!

We needed several new outlets in our kitchen installed before our new kitchen went in. We called about the job and had a guy out to help us within a day or two. He got the job done the morning of the kitchen cabinet install! It was important to get fast help, because it would have been far more difficult to do electrical after all the cabinets went in. The guy was extremely helpful. He helped to create a hard-wire link and explained how we would install the dishwasher, which gave me peace of mind. We would definitely call Rein again in the future!

Scott does excellent work. Very knowledgeable and professional. Friendly and easy to talk to. I previously had Scott put in some new smart switches into my home. I asked him back to perform some much needed electrical work in my laundry work. The work looks fantastic. The addition of new outlets allows my wife and I to reconfigure out laundry room and make it much more functional. Would definitely use them again.

My bathroom electrical outlet had just stopped working. I looked for an electrician on Angie's List and contacted Oakwood Electric. The women who answered the phone was very helpful. I told her my only outlet in the bathroom just went out and asked if they could send a technician today. She put me on hold and checked; she said that Alex was in the area between appointments and would be right over. Sure enough he arrived in about 20 minutes and even put booties on at my door. He was professional and courteous. He quickly diagnosed the problem and was able to install a new outlet very quickly. The work took less than 1/2 hour. I was very satisfied with this work and would contact Oakwood again if I needed electrical service.

Andrew installed 2 security cameras & junction boxes. He also installed new electrical outlets as well. He did a wonderful job and was a pleasure to work with. He was easy to connect with and very responsive with his replies. He is very knowledgeable and equally friendly. I will definitely hire him for future projects. Thank you Andrew!

Great service. He was able to provide same day service. Very punctual. Great troubleshooter. This was a difficult short to find. Offered very helpful information. Offered to install an outdoor outlet cover that would prevent the same problem from occurring again. Gave me a great estimate for some future work. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!!

OVERALL I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE WORK. I CALLED THEM ON SATURDAY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO FIT ME IN ON MONDAY.

We converted our stove from electric to gas, but didn't realize that we'd need a 110 not 220 outlet for the new appliance. I called Dan for a phone estimate on Wednesday afternoon (the day the appliance was delivered!). He called back within an hour and estimated $185 for the work. He was able to work us into his schedule the very next day. He came and did the work for the estimated amount, put our stove back in place, and gave me estimates for other projects around our house. We are very pleased with Select Electrical and will call Dan again for future projects. All in all, a very good experience. We would recommend this company.

Bill is very conscientious and keeps you updated on when he is coming and what he is working on. He also provides good feedback when making decisions to help you get it right the first time. He was a pleasure to work with.

Made my appointment for 9am on a Friday. Had to call the office after waiting until 940am with no one there. They advised me they were going to get in touch with the rep. 10 minutes later the rep called and apologize said he was running late and would be here within the hour. No problem until he call about 45 minutes later and cancelled. Said that I would have to call the office to reschedule and that he would comp me an hour for the inconvenience. I called the office and rescheduled for the following Monday same time. Well 9am sharp Monday morning Andrew San Roman showed up ready to work. (He was not the orginal person who was suppose to come out) He quickly found the problem. He did have to go to Home Depot to buy some new outlets but was back in no time and had them in and working. He was a very nice and friendly guy letting my husband know what he was doing. (Hubby was shadowing him to see what was wrong) In the end he only spent an hour and half and yes they did comp me the hour which was already attached to my file. In the end it turned out great.

The job went great, technician arrived on time, and worked the full 2 hours plus a bit more. He had to remove some very old fashioned outlets that were brittle, no problems. New outlets and plates look great, really dress up the room. Would definitely use this company again!

I purchased a deal for 2 hours of electrical work for $89 on 7/26/13. An automatic email went to the provider requesting them to call me to schedule an appointment. I did not hear back from anyone for a week, so I called and left a voicemail. I followed up with a message through Angie's List on 8/5/13 and finally received a phone call back. We ended up scheduling the appointment for 9/4/13 at 11 am. I received a phone call the day before asking if the appointment could be moved to 8:30 am. That was fine since I was working from home that day to accomodate the other appointment time. Mike called around 8:30 and said that he was 45 minutes away and would arrive in about an hour. Once he arrived, I showed him a few of the electrical projects I had in mind and we decided on only 1 of them, as any combination of the other projects would exceed the 2 hour deal I had purchased. We spent most of the 2 hours talking and reviewing options. The project that was completed was installing a new outlet in my laundry room closet. Since there was no more room in my box, he had to use existing electrical from the other side of the wall from my bedroom outlet. The work was completed and I am satisfied with the results. I had to pay $15 in materials. I paid with a check since he didn't have change for a $20 and if you pay by credit card, there is a 3% convenience fee. Mike explained everything he was doing in detail and how borrowing electrical could affect the breakers since he wasn't sure which switches were on which breakers in the box. We haven't had any issues yet. I plan on buying another deal to have the other 2 projects completed.
