    These people will lie and tell you work is done and it is not!! Than they will wake up your other residents at 640am in the morning on a Saturday!! Which by the way is illegal to work and disturb other residence in the state of Illinois work should begin at 9am on a saturday!!

    Can't beat the knowledge and professionalism of the owner and electricians. Well worth the price to know the job was done right the first time
    Thanks

    Very good experience---installation of recessed ceiling lights in my living room. Prompt, friendly, professional and competent. I highly recommend B-Electric.

    Despite having management companies attempting to reach them to get payment details required to generate a check for an invoice without a callback, they insisted on charging a late fee. If you are part of a condo association building go to a different electrician!

    B-Electric is, hands down, the best company to call for any help you need pertaining to electrical work. Very nice people. But, you really get superior service and the prices are very fair. I wouldn't call anyone else - highly recommend them if you need help.

    One honest company. Knowledgable and family business. Great price and they never try to oversell you on things you don't need. Kept their appointment ( even earlier ). It feels great to be dealing with knowledgable AND honest people. Highly recommend them. Do not get anyone else until you get estimate from B-Electric.

    I have used B-Electric multiple times for both repairs and new installation upgrades to my Chicago condo. They're extremely knowledgeable with product recommendations and the work they do is professional and clean. I would recommend them to anyone that wants the job done right!

    Been hiring this co. for over a decade. Consistent quality throughout.

    Manager? Owner? of at least the past few weeks is great for her explanations and honesty. I still get construction scams but not from her. Is that because licensed electrical is regulated? Maybe it's because she's good people. Dave, tech, is too.

    Prices are in line with the area's electrical service cos. with multiple techs, meaning higher than some, but you're paying for sometimes-needed overhead.

    We just moved in and needed some complex electrical work done for our house, including installing an EV charger, home energy monitoring, cleanup of old/questionable wiring, and adding some outlets. The team at B-Electric did an amazing job, took time to make sure they understood what we needed, and made some excellent recommendations that led to us being even happier than expected (and avoided some pitfalls we hadn't thought about). They have tremendous expertise, are very professional, and are a pleasure to work with. We'd highly recommend them and will certainly reach out to them first whenever we need more electrical work on our house.

    Not trustworthy, awful quality. B-electric did a terrible job on our place (photos attached). They charged us over $13k for a living room, kitchen and hallway, and almost everything they did needs reworking. Several things were done not to code – socket height, coil wires left hanging loose outside the walls. The quality of work is totally unacceptable and after having to ask b-electric to rectify issues, they were very reluctant and argumentative, and ended up sending more invoices for the rework! Dan is only active at the stage of making an initial visit and issuing quotes, the rest of the time he is almost impossible to get hold of, and even when we did, he did not admit the obvious faults (see photos). Dan was NEVER on site to check the work and only came over when we insisted so. The electricians were changing all the time with some disappearing without notice and us having to chase b-electric to send someone else. The worst thing was when we gave them the keys to give them access to the apartment when we were away, and they DISAPPEARED WITH THE KEYS FOR 3 WEEKS!!! The only thing b-electric were consistent with was sending invoices and chasing payments (over $13k), other times it was almost impossible to get anywhere with them. Once I called, and Brittney said that Dan could not respond because he was busy doing quotes. OVERALL A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
