I truly wish I had nicer things to say. Crest has been a Chicago staple and when I finally was…read moreready to upgrade my lighting again I went back to the place that had been tried and true for me years ago. But it seems that era has ended. I came in a hot mess, I have no design skills. I relied on the sales person to help me and I thought she was amazing. She was kind, patient and seemed to really get me and my condo style - benig "vintage" and wanting to modernize was beyond me. She was super helpful and made me feel like she knew exactly what I needed. That was until I left the showroom. I ordered two ceiling fans from her that day, it wasn't cheap. I also ordered one I'd found on my own online. I hired someone reputable to install them for me and I was all set. But then they left and within days the two I purchased from Crest (different manufacturers) were both on the fritz. Hard to believe for sure, but both manufacturers agreed this was a fluke and they both had inherent issues requiring replacement. And then I had to replace them, which meant I had to pay for the labor again. One of the fixtures is in a room I hadn't needed the fan for in the first year. But then I did, and it didn't work. At that same time I noticed the on/off switch wasn't working properly either. I called the manufacturer and they agreed it was a warranty claim and to call Crest to replace the wall switch. Not something I feel comfortable doing on my own. When I talked to Crest, they said they'd order me a part and well... they did but never called to tell me it had come in. I called on my own three weeks later and they said it was there waiting for me. I verified I could wait for the weekend to get it. Of course they are closed on Sundays so It had to be during the short Saturday hours. I raced to get there in the window only to find a lot of confusion. It wasn't waiting for me at all. The woman who said she'd call me was there and surprised I was asking questions. She said she hadn't heard back from the manufacturer to answer my question about paying for labor, and they all just threw their hands up and said they couldn't help me because the manager wasn't there. Let's just say it's the end of an era and I won't be back for business in the future. Good luck with your purchases after you leave the store.

I recommend & would use this small business again. I was having trouble with my furnace that seemed related to a problem with the breaker box right as the weather here was becoming dangerous. Al got out here without delay & went beyond the immediate concern and gave me a full run down of my home's electrical situation, which I was already aware had not been upgraded to code since the house was built in 1959, for a very reasonable 10% discounted $107. He recommended replacing the entire Federal Pacific Stab Loc circuit box saying the boxes made by the long defunct company had been found to be unreliable. I confirmed his information to be accurate through my own extensive review of multiple online sources. In addition to replacing the breaker box, he agreed to extend the 10% discount if I gave him the entire job of bringing everything up to code. At no time did he pressure me into doing it all at once -- this was my decision, recognizing that doing the work piecemeal would also entail additional service charges. He gave me a very detailed breakdown of what the various items would cost, and unlike many other contractors, there were no surprises or significant cost overruns. He also did not try to sell me on expensive rewiring of the entire house. On an outlet in the bathroom that had always been an annoyance & I wanted relocated, he informed me of an alternate way of doing it that would cost me half the price. Another surprise was how fast and efficiently Al & his assistant electricians worked, getting the power back on in good time before the house got too cold with some of the lowest outdoor temperatures we ever get here. All the work, which included replacing the outside electric meter box and wiring, installing GFCIs where required by code, grounded outlets throughout, enclosing closet fixtures, and running a ground to the water meter was completed in 3 visits. Each time they arrived on time and once even cleared the snow out of my driveway on arrival! While replacing the breaker box did not solve my furnace trouble, and I had to end up replacing that 20 year old unit in the end, I'm not at all sorry I got this work done, and it ended up costing me less than the new furnace for probably 3 times the labor. I'd been avoiding having this house brought up to electrical code for fear of the exorbitant rates I heard regarding what electricians charge. Al's Accurate Electric is not one of them. read more

I called A Accurate to get a quote for repairing the electrical riser at my mother-in-laws home. A semi had driven down her side street and hit her old phone line and bent and pulled her riser off her home. Al came out that day on his way home from another job to give me a quote. After trying to contact another local electrician and them not even bothering to return my calls, we scheduled with A Accurate. The day before the morning of the work, Al called and asked if he could come out and take some measurements. He wanted to pre-bend the riser so that they didn't have to do it the next morning. He had called so I could let my mother-in-law know that he was going to stop by and she wouldn't be surprised. Later that day he sent me a picture of the pre-bent pipe. The next day his men came out, right on time. I found them to be courteous and professional. They worked efficiently and got the job done a little earlier than what Al had told me that it would take. They had even caulked the old screw holes that were in the siding without me having to ask about it. The quality and value of the work was right where I wanted it to be and I will recommend them to everyone. read more

I had a partial electrical outage at my house and called Al for emergency service. He explained to me that the issue was more than likely with ComEd and I should contact their automated customer service number and that they could determine by sending signals to my smart meter whether or not I was receiving full power to my house. It ended up being a ComEd issue, which is in the process of being rectified. Al saved me a few hundred bucks. I could tell by the way he talked and how he took the time to explain everything to me that he is truly a straight shooter and very honorable. Needless to say, I will keep his number and use his company or recommend him to friends and family in the future. Mind you, this guy spent a good 15-20 minutes on the phone with me on a Friday night thoroughly explaining what he thought was wrong. And he was right! Call him, you will not be disappointed. There should be more people like him in the industry. Luis Garcia is my name in case anyone wants to verify the validity of this review. sooeetlou@yahoo.com read more

Al and Juan from A Accurate Electric did a wonderful job at our old house. We had 11 old bedroom outlets replaced, 3 closet fixtures installed, 2 ceiling fans installed, power to the garage established, and 2 exterior coach lights installed. They were professional, polite, and fun to work with. It is difficult to find contractors who are honest and straightforward; so it was refreshing to work with Al and Juan. I recommend A Accurate Electric to anyone who needs quality work done at an honest price. Look forward to calling them again for future electrical projects! Thanks again Al and Juan!! read more
