Who Rates Best (& Worst) in the Chicago Area? Now You'll Know.
|
For most of us, serious electrical work should be left to professionals. If you don't know what you're doing, making electrical repairs and improvements can be a dangerous business. Unfortunately, our ratings show that some of the local outfits just aren't up to the task. However, we did find several area electrical contractors who can help.

CHECKBOOK provides subscriber comments on their experiences with the firms they use. Please remember that individual subscriber comments are informal. Subscriber comments may give you insight into the types of features and problems that exist in a service field, but are not the best basis for selecting or rejecting a specific firm. To assess the quality of a firm's performance, we recommend that you give more weight to the percentages of favorable ratings. Those percentages are generally based on much larger numbers of consumers' ratings (the number of consumer ratings is noted above).

As You Can See Below, Some Electricians Get High Praise from Their Customers. Some Others Don't. So Choose Carefully.
Here Are a Few Samples of the Thousands of Comments CHECKBOOK Has Collected on Hundreds of Different Electricians.
