Absolutely. Every electrician on our team is fully licensed in Illinois and carries comprehensive insurance coverage. This protects both you and your property during any electrical work.

Watch for warning signs like frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, outlets that don’t work consistently, or a burning smell near electrical components.

We offer free estimates and can assess your electrical system to determine exactly what you need without any guesswork.
First, check if your neighbors have power to determine if it’s a utility issue or something specific to your property. If it’s just your building, check your main breaker panel for tripped breakers. Don’t attempt any electrical repairs yourself. If resetting breakers doesn’t solve the problem, call us immediately. We provide 24/7 emergency electrical services throughout Cook and Will County for situations exactly like this.
Schedule regular electrical inspections, especially if your home is older. Don’t overload outlets or extension cords, and replace any damaged cords immediately. Install GFCI outlets in bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor areas. Keep electrical panels accessible and never store items near them. Most importantly, never attempt electrical repairs yourself. Professional maintenance and prompt attention to warning signs prevent most electrical hazards.
