Electrical reviews in Chicago, Illinois

We could not figure out why the power to our newly-installed Ring doorbell wasn't working and found this company on Yelp. They sent us an electrician who was on a Mission From God to find the source of the problem and who refused to give up when all seemed lost and it appeared as though we would need to start demolishing drywall. Finally, he traced a wire he found in a hornet's nest of mechanical and electrical equipment and located a blown transformer in a concealed and remote nook of our garage, at which point he climbed a ladder, twisted his body into contortions, and fixed the problem by installing a new transformer. He was worth his weight in gold. Three cheers for Wizard Electric.

This service is excellent! I am impressed with the work. No hidden charges or surprises. However, I recommend getting all estimates in writing.

We had a wonderful experience with Tom. He was super responsive, proactive, and knew his stuff. His advice was exactly what we needed!

Very unprofessional service. We were having problems with the electricity in our building, and they came to inspect the panels. Ended up charging more than double the price they had quoted for the initial diagnostics, and the quick fix they did didn't address the issue at all.

Tom is truly a wizard — providing not only dependable electrical contracting but also a wealth of knowledge about how homes (especially old ones) work top to bottom. Highly recommended.

The greatest customer service I EVER experienced. Com Ed disconnected service to my first floor apartment before I had a chance to put it in my name after tenet moved, stating there was a backfeed. I called Wizard and talked to Tom, he took it upon himself to call Com Ed and get them to come out with in an hour and totally fix the problem. NO CHARGE. THANKS TOM.

I called Wizard Electric yesterday to help us with a bathroom lighting project, and they promptly scheduled us for today. Rob, our electrician, did an excellent job. He was very professional, friendly and efficient. Thank you!

I accidently dead shorted a wire in an outlet box, although nothing tripped in the breaker the entire house lost power not good. I was lucky and was able to reach Tom on the phone he walked me through it. We were able to find a breaker outside by the meter which I reset and the power came back on Tom saved me time and money, however most importantly my weekend. Thanks Tom!!!!!

This is the best place to hire for your electrical needs, especially if you have an older house like my bungalow. Cloth wiring, weird homeowner repairs, these guys have seen it all. They are professional and on time, and they do great work. Call them with confidence

Tom was incredibly helpful, upfront, and communicative. Highly recommend!

I contacted Wizard Electric on August 5, 2020 to do a repair of a can light inside my house and to install a new outlet in my garage. They quoted me their hourly rates and scheduled me for 10am-2pm on August 14, 2020.

Well, August 14 comes and I wait and wait, and as it nears 2pm, I decide to give them a call to see if they are still coming. I end up speaking to the same guy who scheduled my appointment. To my surprise, he tells me that I am not one of the names on today's job list. He puts me on hold, and after a long wait, comes back to tell me that somehow he managed to schedule me for JULY 14, 2020, instead of August 14.

He scheduled me for a day that was ALREADY 22 DAYS IN THE PAST when my appointment was made! 22 DAYS IN THE PAST!?! If true, these people must be running the world's worst computer system, because I'm pretty sure most scheduling software would not allow a user to schedule for dates that are three weeks past.

No effort whatsoever was made to get somebody to my house to honor the appointment they made 9 days earlier. Instead I was given a litany of excuses about how busy he is and how the recent storm has people offering them "$1000 to come out and do work." When I asked for somebody to come tomorrow (Saturday), I was told no. When I asked for somebody to come Monday (the next weekday), I was also told no.

Save yourself the trouble and call a company that honors its appointments. At the very least, I would have expected Wizard Electric to do everything they could to get an electrician to my house ASAP to make up for this ridiculous mistake. But nope. Too busy. So sorry.

What a joke.

We chose Wizard Electric to upgrade our service to 200 amps, replace a panel and add a couple of new circuits in our basement. Work was top notch and communication was excellent. We will definitely use them again for any future electrical needs.

Chicago Bungalow Owner, I needed some electrical work done and used the Chicago Bungalow Association for references and the Wizard popped up. I’ve read some of the reviews and of the negative ones that I came across I have to say I totally disagree. Customer service was excellent when setting up the appointment over the Memorial Day weekend. I had the pleasure of working with Rob, who had great knowledge of Chicago Bungalows and was spot on with his information so to you Rob; I Thank You! I will ABSOLUTELY use this company again for any and all my electrical needs.
Job Done: trouble shoot electrical short, 3 new light switches, installed a ceiling fan and made a Not safe wiring to another ceiling fan safe so that I can install a new one myself.

Wizard Electric was absolutely top notch on an issue that was causing major concern. A unit in a multi unit building didn’t have power suddenly. While no electrician was available to get to the property, Wizard Electric offered to call the tenant and troubleshoot the problem on the phone. The problem was solved in minutes.

Werners Electrical Services were very professional and knowledgeable. Their awesome electrician came over, checked out where the problem was and explained to me everything I was having issues with. he got a remedy immediately and I would hire them again and again. Superb!!

We hired Werners Electrical Services to install fixtures and install updated wiring in our circuit breaker box at our house and were 100% pleased with the service and quality of work. I can honestly say that these are the guys to call for your electrical work. Knowledgeable, courteous, honest, good pricing. What more can you ask for?

Werners Electrical Services came out on a Saturday on a short notice to fix a switch in time for a family gathering. They were so nice to work with and was able to quickly make the repair. This is the third time we've had him out. They are professional, friendly, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

A few weeks after our appointment, we received 3 duplicate charges to the square account of the contractor they sent to fix our one light switch. They have been elusive and difficult to work with considering this nearly $1000 mistake that we’ve have to fight with our bank to fix.
