Highlights Chicago

Boz came out next day, had a complete write up on our project ready on arrival. He had the entire project finished by the end of the following week. His team was courteous, respectful, and all expert. His team did everything we asked for and more. The work looks amazing, safe, and professional. The price was fair, and he was attentive to our concerns throughout the duration of the project. Will definitely use Highlights again, and recommend to anyone!

As both a homeowner and long-time landlord, I am very skeptical about all contractors. I found Highlights Chicago Electrical Services on Yelp, and was even more skeptical regarding well over 200 five-star reviews. I needed a major electrical service upgrade done on a historic landmark apartment building I own so I had no choice but to do the research and select a contractor. I know there are ways to get great reviews on Yelp. However, nine times out of ten, those people or "services" won't bother to write reviews in great detail, let alone many paragraphs in length. As I read through the reviews I realized they were legit. I can now add mine to the list. This company has truly earned every five-star review it has received. I have NEVER had such a positive experience with an electrical contractor. Quite the opposite. I got 3 different estimates, and they weren't the lowest, and not the highest either. Boz came out to look at what needed to be done (which included undoing the disaster the previous electrician created) within a few hours of my call. He explained everything in detail, and the pro's and con's of what my options were. The total cost of my project was just under $8,000. They never asked for any payment upfront! The estimate was extraordinarily detailed. Shock number one. The team I was assigned, Kaplan and Jose, showed up ready to go at 7 am the next day! Shock number two. They worked their butts off until well after 6 pm! Shock number 3. They came back the next two days and did it again. Shock number 4. This is a company that is proud of what they do. The end result looked like a work of art. The conduit was perfectly aligned, evenly spaced and so symmetrical I couldn't get over it. Every detail was addressed, and all done without cutting corners, dodging building codes, or overcharging. Old houses are not easy to work on and require a lot of patience and genuine expertise. They worked around all the challenges and knocked it out of the ballpark. As long as they are in business, I will NEVER use anyone else. The few hundred dollars you might save going with the lowest cost option is nothing compared to the misery you will spare yourself by having this company do the work. If I could give them more stars I would. They are also really nice people to work with. When was the last time you thought that about a contractor?

Absolutely WONDERFUL! They responded the day before Thanksgiving when I was desperate because the electric ceiling heat in my condo had gone out and could not be repaired because of the type and age of the installation. Upgraded wiring was needed before the new heating contractors could install units. Try to find reputable trades people at this time of the year - I thought it was impossible. After ten calls all over Chicago and the North and Western Suburbs, no one could come out. I finally found Highlights. They showed up the day after Thanksgiving and performed the work in a professional manner. They were pleasant, businesslike and neat. I also felt that, for what had to be done and since they had to have realized that I was desperate since cold temperatures were coming, they charged a reasonable price. My new electricians!

- Communication before/during/after was good: quick phone and email responses - Short time between calling them and work being performed - Reasonable price - They saved me the hassle of having to purchase the lights (without charging more for doing so) - The amount I paid matched their quote
