Hear from Our Customers
You flip a switch and nothing happens. Or worse—you smell something burning near an outlet. That’s not a problem you can ignore until Monday morning.
Electrical issues don’t wait for business hours. Neither do we. When your power goes out, your panel starts sparking, or your breakers keep tripping, you need someone who picks up the phone and shows up ready to fix it.
We handle the urgent stuff—flickering lights, burning smells, complete power loss, and outdated panels that can’t keep up with your home. Most calls get resolved the same day. You get upfront pricing before we start, and the same warranty whether it’s 2 p.m. or 2 a.m. No surprises. No waiting around wondering if your house is safe.
We’ve been fixing electrical problems in University Park since before most people had smartphones. That’s a quarter-century of circuit repairs, panel upgrades, and late-night emergency calls across Will County.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured. Every electrician on our team holds a current Illinois electrical license and carries the tools to handle most repairs in one visit. University Park has older homes—many still running on panels built decades ago. We know what breaks, what fails, and what needs upgrading before it becomes a bigger problem.
You’re not hiring a national chain with a local sticker. You’re hiring a local electrical company that’s been here long enough to know the difference between a quick fix and the right fix.
You call. We answer. If it’s an emergency, we’re typically on-site within two hours—nights, weekends, holidays included.
When we arrive, we run a full diagnostic. Not just the obvious problem, but the whole system. You’ll know what’s wrong, what it costs to fix, and whether there are other safety issues we found. Everything is upfront before we touch a wire.
Most repairs happen that same visit. Our trucks carry the parts, tools, and equipment to handle the majority of residential electrical work without a second trip. If we need to order something specific, we’ll tell you the timeline and keep your home safe in the meantime.
Once the work is done, we test everything, walk you through what we did, and make sure you’re clear on the warranty. Then we clean up and get out of your way. You get a detailed invoice and a system that works the way it should.

We handle residential and commercial electrical work, but most of our calls come from homeowners dealing with something urgent. Circuit breaker issues. Outlets that stopped working. Panels that need upgrading because they’re outdated or overloaded.
University Park homes average around 584 kWh per month in electricity use. That’s higher than many neighboring areas, and it puts extra strain on older electrical systems that weren’t built for modern appliances, HVAC systems, or EV chargers. If your home was built before 2000, there’s a good chance your panel is undersized for how you live today.
We also install EV chargers, add new circuits for home additions, and handle service changes when you’re upgrading your electrical capacity. You’ll get the same transparent pricing and same-day service whether it’s an emergency or a planned upgrade. We offer discounts for military, first responders, seniors, teachers, and students—because the people who serve this community deserve a break when they need electrical work done.
If you’re dealing with an emergency—sparks, burning smells, complete power loss—we aim to be there within two hours. That includes nights, weekends, and holidays.
For non-emergency work, we’ll schedule a time that works for you, usually within a day or two depending on our current calls. Emergency situations always take priority because electrical problems can escalate fast.
Our electricians work out of fully stocked trucks, so we’re not making trips back to a shop for parts. About 85% of the time, we finish the repair during that first visit. The goal is to get your power back on and your home safe as quickly as possible without cutting corners.
You’ll get a price before we start any work. Even on emergency calls, we diagnose the problem first, explain what needs to happen, and give you the cost upfront.
Most homeowners spend somewhere between $200 and $800 depending on what’s broken and how complicated the fix is. A simple outlet repair costs less than a full panel upgrade. If we find additional safety issues during our diagnostic, we’ll let you know what those are and what they cost to fix—but we won’t do anything without your approval.
We also offer discounts for military, first responders, seniors, teachers, and students. If you qualify, let us know when you call. The average emergency repair in our area runs around $597, but that varies based on the scope of work and materials needed.
Yes. A large portion of University Park’s housing stock was built decades ago, and many of those homes are still running on original electrical panels and wiring that wasn’t designed for today’s electrical load.
Older homes often have undersized panels, outdated wiring, or circuits that can’t handle modern appliances and electronics. We upgrade panels, rewire sections of homes, and replace outdated components that pose safety risks. If your breakers trip frequently, your lights dim when you run the microwave, or your outlets feel warm to the touch, those are signs your system needs attention.
We’ll inspect the whole system and let you know what’s a safety issue versus what’s just outdated. You decide what gets fixed and when. But if something is actively dangerous, we’ll tell you straight.
If your home has no power, you smell burning near outlets or your panel, you see sparks, or you’re getting shocked by appliances—that’s an emergency. Those situations can lead to electrical fires or serious injury if ignored.
Other emergencies include exposed wiring, outlets or switches that are hot to the touch, and breakers that won’t reset or keep tripping immediately. Basically, if the problem puts your safety at risk or leaves you without power, it’s worth an emergency call.
Non-emergencies include things like adding a new outlet, upgrading to LED lighting, or installing an EV charger. Those are important, but they can wait for a scheduled appointment. If you’re not sure whether your situation is urgent, call us. We’ll ask a few questions and let you know whether it needs immediate attention or if it can wait.
Yes. Every electrician we send to your home holds a current Illinois electrical license and receives ongoing training on local electrical codes. We carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage.
That means if something goes wrong during the repair—which is rare, but possible—you’re protected. We can provide proof of licensing and insurance before starting work if you want to see it.
A lot of homeowners don’t think to ask about licensing until after they’ve hired someone. That’s a mistake. Unlicensed electrical work can void your homeowner’s insurance, fail inspection, and create serious safety hazards. You’re not just paying for the repair—you’re paying for the legal protection and professional accountability that comes with hiring a licensed electrical contractor.
Yes. All our electrical work comes with a warranty, whether it’s an emergency repair at midnight or a scheduled panel upgrade. The warranty covers both parts and labor.
If something we installed or repaired fails within the warranty period, we’ll come back and fix it at no additional cost. That doesn’t include damage caused by external factors like power surges, flooding, or modifications made by someone else after we leave.
We stand behind our work because we’ve been doing this for 25 years. If we install it, wire it, or repair it, it should work. If it doesn’t, we’ll make it right. You’ll get the warranty details in writing after the job is done, so there’s no confusion about what’s covered.
