Called Donatello Electric - too kind - and explained what we needed. Matt came out and what should have been an hour-long job (per Matt) turned into an almost two hour "let's be sure to get this really right" job. I am so thankful for Donatello's professionalism and kindness - and wow, they actually answer their phone! Matt was very knowledgeable, patient, and thorough! Really appreciate the quality of their work...and business model. I should also mention that I feel the pricing was honest and very fair. I will be calling again! Thank you all at Donatello Electric for a GREAT experience!!!

Chris is hands down the best electrician in the Chicagoland area. Being relatively new homeowners,…read morewe've worked with a variety of technicians from multiple major companies and independent electricians, and we now only keep Chris's number saved for electrical issues. Chris has come out to our house multiple times for things as minor as replacing switches to more major troubleshooting issues with our panel. Chris is responsive over the phone. There's no call center to go through. While he's very busy, he has always been able to schedule us at times that are convenient for both of us. Most importantly, he's absolutely trustworthy as far as being able to complete any job we've had. We have an older house, so whenever something pops up that we're unsure of, whether it's a functional issue or safety concern, Chris is able to quickly diagnose the issue and solve it efficiently. He was thorough in inspecting our house and talking through what our electrical system looks like in our house and explaining in plain language why something is happening. I've learned a tremendous amount about our house and electricity in general from his work. The cherry on top is that he is competitively priced for the very high level of expertise that he brings to the table. He's never tried to upsell us and has even talked me out of some work that I've inquired about when it's unnecessary. We've even actually ended up calling him to check work that other electricians have completed when issues have arisen. I can't recommend Chris more at Quality Residential Electric for his knowledge, personability, and fair pricing.

I found Chris via Yelp when I had a wall that start buzzing when I turned on a light switch,…read morecoupled with a three way switch that wasn't behaving normally anymore. No one I knew had any recommendations, so I contacted a few electricians on Yelp because I didn't know where to start. He responded quickly and was EXTREMELY helpful, talking to me on several calls to give an estimate and initial troubleshooting ideas, including suggestions for what to tell my building's engineer in case I opted to have the engineer try to fix it first. He had me send photos of my electrical panel and he mentioned the brand of breakers I had (Challenger) are known to be problematic and hazardous, so he suggested that I have them swapped out when I have the lightswitch fixed. He said my building engineer could probably do it if I preferred that, which would be less expensive. Because my building just changed maintenance/engineering companies earlier this year and I don't really know or trust the new engineer yet, I wanted to have an electrician do this to make sure it was done correctly. I was impressed by his Yelp reviews, Angie's List reviews, and BBB rating, so I hired him. Chris was super easy to work with to schedule the appointment, and he gave me a 2 hour window for when he'd arrive (and as it approached, he called/texted to update me on a more exact ETA). I ended up having him replace all my breakers, and he also replaced the three light switches that were faulty. He also swapped out my hardwired smoke detector, since my old one was past its prime. I pre-purchased the breakers and detector since I had a few days' lead time, so he only charged me for the switches and his time (which was spot-on with the estimate he gave me over the phone). He also went up on my roof when he saw the breaker for my AC unit seemed to not make sense for the size of my apartment, and sure enough it was not what the AC unit sticker said it should be. So he replaced that one with the correct amperage, which reduces the strain on the AC Unit (so it doesn't get damaged) and reduces the risk of a fire. He also found some problems with my building's roof and some building wiring that was exposed up there, which he photographed and sent to me so I could pass it along to the board and management company for them to handle. Chris is a super nice guy, and he was great at explaining what was wrong and what needed to be fixed without upselling me. I'm someone who stresses out about anything home maintenance because I'm terrified of something going tragically wrong, so I appreciated the info he shared. I've already recommended him to my neighbors in our building's facebook group, and I will definitely hire him again for any other electrical work I may need. (I may eventually get my life together and replace some ceiling light fixtures and install a fan. While in theory I could do it myself, I'd rather not accidentally electrocute myself. Plumbing and electric are the two things I don't mess around with, even for simple fixes).

Another appointment was made and they sent someone else. This technician said the original work was not done, and the additional "dangerous" issue was not a problem. I asked to speak with an owner before paying my bill because by this time I didn't trust anything the first tech had said or done. The owner called me five days later. I missed the call, so he left a voicemail. His first comment was that I had not paid my bill. At this point, I just wanted to be done with this company, so I paid the bill. I have not had any response to my last call back. Do yourself a favor and find another company.

My circuit panel was far from the garage (where the outlet would be) but it wasn't a big deal for them and they were able to relocate some breakers in my panel to the sub-panel to make space for the double-pole 50A breaker for the NEMA 14-50 Outlet.

We recently purchased a house in the 'burbs and there was some electrical work to be looked into /…read moreremediated. After reading all the reviews about Oakwood, I decided to give them a try and I'm glad I did. They first came out and provided us an estimate of the costs - which was good b/c then I knew which ones I would book immediately vs wait on. I then was able to schedule them to come out a week or two later for the work. I had quite the laundry list of items and they were here about 8 hours (1 to 2 people). At the end of the day, it was a costly day, but to be honest - not as bad as I expected - given how much I had them do. They provided me a source of comfort knowing that my electrical needs were being taken care of in a professional and safe manner. I thought the workers were really nice and did a great job. I would recommend Oakwood to anyone and I would use them again.

How I wish I wasn't placed in a position to share my unfortunate poor experience with Oakwood…read moreElectric, but here I am. I had asked them to add a light fixture to my outside porch going from one light to two. One person cut the hole in the brick on one day and another person came out the next day to install the light since it was towards the end of the day. Everything was fine until I was informed at that time that the hole was cut too big and the gentleman that was here couldn't complete the job. On the following day, a third person visited to install the light and although it did work out in the end, it didn't seem like much thought was given to this part of the project before cutting the hole. Plus that part took 3 different people in 3 different days to complete. Now, let's talk about the under the counter lights. To make a long story short, I had to have someone out three times to finally get them to 'work', but for the last 6 months there's an area that's been temperamental. I really got tired of calling and trying to coordinate my work day with them so I decided to just lived with it. I was told that the guys there have so much experience, which I'm sure they do, but if that's the case then it's probably a good idea to walk the walk. Now here we are today with one strip that is now not working at all, which is the same strip that's flickered for the last 6 months. The other two strips in the picture do still flicker. I expected and paid for a quality job and a set of lights that worked, but that's definitely not what I received. Now I'm likely going to have to have someone else come out, someone who can actually make them work, unless after reading this review Oakwood Electric will have enough pride and integrity to take the time to really make these lights work. Can't hurt to be hopeful....
