I called in the morning and he said he would be able to come in about 2 hours. He called back in a half an hour and said he would be coming shortly. He put up the vanity light in the bathroom and was done in less than a half hour. I was very pleased with his service. I would certainly use this provider again.

Description of Work: Having used Aspire Electric before, we called to create an outlet for a new microwave, as well as fixing some other problems. Brian did everything which we asked and then we were quite surprised when the next day, he brought back our check, having inadvertently charged us for too much time. Quite a surprise in the modern day!

Had a very small outlet issue. One other shop (non Angie's) said they would 'try to fit it in' and didn't call back. I called and he came over the next day and made the repairs. Great service.

Brian did an excellent job. I felt his honesty really helped me understand my situation. Another electrician came to quote the job. He wasn't going to repair the problem just get the electricity to work. Brian updated the wires and removed the old ones. I feel 10times safer now that the job has been done right. He completed the entire job in under 5 hours which was more than I could have expected. I would highly recommend him for any electrical repair.
Description of Work: Brain replaced old wiring in my bathroom. He also installed the new lighting fixtures, ceiling fan, replaced the wall outlet, and reconfigured the light switch.

I called 3 electricians to verify the electric service to our house. Potential buyer's inspection report stated that we did not have 200 amp service as we'd claimed and the buyers were asking for a price concession as a result. I only had one day that I was in town to take care of this. I'd never used Aspire before, but called them based on Angie's List. Brian responded right away and came over within 30 minutes (the other firms called back, but later in the day). He confirmed our 200 amp service and also explained why the inspector might have been confused. He agreed to put his assessment in writing via email that day, which he did. He was professional, friendly, and efficient. He also saved me a lot of hassle and money! I was so pleased that I called him again a few weeks later to replace a dining room dimmer switch, which he did quickly. He is a very nice fellow, highly responsive, and does good work!

Member, Thank you for your kind words in your review. I apologize for the late thank you as I had been unfamiliar with the Angie's List process which my office assistant had previously taken care of for me. I hope all is well with you and you can enjoy the Florida/Michigan weather. Best regards, Brian Borkovec Aspire Electric

All went well. When he arrived he looked into the reason my kitchen recessed lights wouldn't work, disscovered it was the switches combined with the wrong type of bulbs. Replaced the switches and the bulbs. Recommended a whole house surge protector.
Description of Work: Brian replaced two bad switches in my kitchen, He also spent time explaining the proper types of bulbs to use with dimmers and the relative merits of incandescents vs cfls and led lighting. Went out to Home Depot for supplies and also picked me up some new bulbs. Brian is very pleasant to work with and will likely use him again.

I got a bid from Aspire, but did not choose them to do the work.
Description of Work: Aspire came the day that I called after I had an electrical fire. He was very responsive and knowledgeable. I decided to do some electrical upgrades and got a bid from him and other contractors and chose someone else based on price. I will keep Aspire in mind for future electrical work as I think they are a good company and they know what they are doing.

it went well I was happy with the result.
Description of Work: Installed a ceilng fan in one of my bedrooms. The job required an electrical box and electricity had to be pulled down from the crawel space. This space was very hard to get to and required a ladder and crawling through a small space. Brian did a good job and completed the job professionally. I tried to reach a few other companies provided on your website but they did not respond, so I wasn't sure if this price was too high or not. It seemed a bit high initially, but after saw what he had to go through to get it done, Im ok with it. The company also gave 10% of the cost to my charity.

Received immediate response to my inquiry for electrical services which included installation of a whole house surge protector and several other smaller projects. I was impressed with the professionalism and thorough consideration of our needs. Although we did not use Aspire for this project, we would definitely consider using Aspire in the future.

After only finding Chicago-based electricians when I did an Angie's List search, I decided to google more local Berwyn electricians. I found that Aspire was not very far away and, though they didn't have any reviews in Angie's List, decided to give them a call. The woman on the phone was very friendly and I got an appointment for an estimate on the date and time I wanted. Brian was actually early to the appointment and, after checking out what I needed and giving me an estimate, he and his assistant actually came back a few hours later to do the work. Brian went out to get the 2 new fixtures while his assistant worked on the new outlet. The job was done very quickly, I would say they were there for around an hour and a half. It was a little more than I expected to pay, but it was worth it for the ease and professionalism. Brian also gave me very good advice and money-saving tips for future electrical projects I plan on doing in the basement. When the time comes to do those, I will definitely be calling Brian and Aspire back to do the work. Highly recommended!!
Description of Work: Replaced two closet pull-chain fixtures and added one outlet in basement entertainment console
