Will definitely be going with Blacklite Electric when I need an electrician in the future, highly recommended.

After months of being ghosted or overquoted by other electricians in Chicago, finding Highlights…read moreChicago was a total game-changer. I needed several installs pendant lights, a ceiling fan, and vanity lights but most companies either dragged their feet on quotes or gave me "I don't want to do this" pricing. One competitor, Mr. Mighty Electric, quoted me 3x the rate and charged a trip fee just to look at the place! Boz (the owner) was a true professional from the start. He came out for a walkthrough the same week I called, took detailed notes, and was incredibly respectful (he even took his shoes off without being asked). He promised a quote the next day and delivered a very reasonable, detailed estimate. On installation day, Boz arrived on time with three workers, gave them a clear game plan, and specifically instructed them to minimize wall damage to save me from extra painting. The crew was fantastic they checked in with me on heights for the fan and pendants before finalizing anything. They worked for 8 hours and the result was outstanding. I was so happy with the quality that I tipped the whole crew. If you want fair pricing and high quality work, call Highlights. I'll be using them for every future project!

Highlights Chicago exceeded my expectations. They were…read moreresponsive, thorough and did what they said they were going to do. I don't reside in Chicago where I have property so communication was essential. Highlights Chicago was quick and effective in responding to my inquiries and issues. Boz patiently answered my many questions. Each phase of the job was videotaped to show me their progress. (Electrical panel replaced for six unit apartment building) It should be noted that this was no small job. I couldn't help but notice how they cleaned the work area at the end of each day. Hopefully, I won't need such a big job in the future. Just knowing that I have such a remarkable company to rely on, Highlights Chicago will certainly get my repeat business, big or small.

We are repeat customers and every time, Sims and Sons continue to exceed our expectations!…read more A few months ago, we needed electrical work and everything went A+. Last week, we needed plumbing work. We had a scary running leak under our kitchen sink and reached out and got Darrell. Within moments, he connected us with Mike who got us on their schedule promptly. The two gentlemen who arrived were so professional and knowledgeable. They figured out the problem right away, got the necessary parts and made the repairs. Pricing was fair and again the service was outstanding. We have referred friends to Sims and Sons and will continue to do so because we trust them. So grateful for helping us through another situation in such a smooth way. Highly recommend!

They did an amazing job! My mom was very happy. I was so impressed with the work they did for my mom, especially when they responded immesiately to a call from my mom, late at night on a cold and snowy weekend. They showed up and resolved the issue (caused by a tenant) and they didn't even charge her! I did not hesitate to hire them for electrical and plumbing work at my house. They upgraded my panel to 200 amps, installed an electric tankless water heater, installed a 100 amp sub-panel in my garage, installed a level 2 EV charger, ran a 240V circuit for an electric stove and installed a water line connection for a fridge. They even installed an oudoor outlet and light fixture for a cat shelter at no additional charge. They are a family owned business with many years of experience, they do great work, they are very professional and they happen to be wonderful people. I can't say enough good things about them. All of that at very competitive rates. If you need electrical or plumbing work, call Sims and Sons. You won't regret it.

No one answered their office phone or responded to a direct message. After a couple of days waiting for a human to reply in chat, I simply got another automated response telling me to call their office if I'm still interested in this project. Well, I was interested, but I didn't get the impression that they were. I went with another company that is definitely staffed by human beings and not chatbots. This company seems to have good reviews so maybe my experience is an anomaly. First impressions are important though.

Laura who arranged the service was friendly and helpful. I was lucky to get someone to come in the same day, as one of the electrician had prior job done earlier. Mike came in to install the outlet and he had all the material ready to install immediately. He not only install the outlet but also fixed a loosened wire nearby to make the area safer. He is nice to work with and efficient, speedy but not rushing the work. The rate is reasonable, charged by the time spend instead of a flat rate. I highly recommend them and I will be calling them for future projects.

I requested quotes from 5 different electricians in the area, but had a good feeling about aardvark. They were speedy! I submitted a quote request and first thing the next morning, Frank reached out to discuss details and pricing estimates. Michael and Christian were the electricians that came to install and they were extremely polite and personable. They completed the work faster than I expected and I am extremely pleased with the outcome! Aardvark is definitely the best in the area with fair pricing (and are insured) and I'm so glad we went with them. Anyone looking for electricians I HIGHLY recommend.

Stefan was awesome to work with -- quick to respond, on time, and super clear with communication. Pricing was straightforward and very reasonable, and there was no pressure or upselling, which we really appreciated. Our house had some really old electrical/conduit, and the finished work (both inside and outside at the electrical box) looks so clean and tidy. He even called me before leaving to ask where he could find a broom so he could sweep up. That level of care and pride in the job says it all. We'll definitely be calling Stefan again for smaller projects and eventually, when we're ready to add EV charging. Highly recommend!

Despite…read morethe system being powered on, the downspouts freeze solid, water backs up, and ice pools at the base--creating a serious safety hazard. We raised this issue last winter and again this year, and each time our concerns were dismissed, with blame placed on us despite the system being turned on well in advance of freezing conditions. We are now being told that their 10-year "warranty" only covers the cable itself, not evaluating whether the system is functioning properly or was correctly designed. In other words, if the system fails to do its basic job, we still have to pay them just to tell us why. What is the point of a warranty if the company refuses to stand behind system performance or take responsibility for obvious design failures? Between the unsafe conditions, refusal to investigate without charging high fees, and repeated deflection, this experience has been extremely disappointing. We would not recommend this company. It's clear that once they receive their nearly $5,000 payment, customer support ends.
