You’re not looking for someone to patch things temporarily. You need electrical repairs in Mokena, IL that actually hold up.
That’s what 25 years of residential electrical work gets you. We’ve seen the flickering lights that turn into full power outages. The breakers that trip every time you run the dryer. The outlets that spark when you plug something in. These aren’t minor annoyances—they’re safety risks that get worse the longer you wait.
When we finish a job, your electrical system works the way it should. Your panel handles the load without overheating. Your circuits don’t trip randomly. Your family isn’t at risk from outdated wiring or overloaded systems. You get real solutions, not temporary fixes that fail in six months.
We’re based in Orland Park and we’ve been handling electrical emergencies and upgrades throughout Mokena, IL for over two decades. Licensed, bonded, and insured—because that actually matters when someone’s working inside your walls.
Most of our calls come from homeowners dealing with urgent problems. A burning smell near the electrical panel. Lights that dim when the AC kicks on. Outlets that don’t work in half the kitchen. These are the calls we handle every day, and we respond fast because we know electrical issues don’t wait for business hours.
Mokena has a mix of older homes with electrical systems that weren’t built for modern power demands and newer construction that sometimes cuts corners. We’ve worked on both. We know what fails first in older panels and what to look for when a “new” installation wasn’t done right.
You call or contact us with the problem. We ask a few questions to understand what’s happening—not to waste your time, but so we show up with the right equipment and can give you a realistic timeframe.
We schedule a time that works for you, and if it’s an emergency, we come out the same day. When we arrive, we assess the situation, explain what’s wrong in plain terms, and tell you what it’ll cost before we start any work. No surprises, no upselling services you don’t need.
Then we fix it. If it’s a panel upgrade, we handle the permit and inspection. If it’s a circuit issue, we trace it, repair it, and test it. If you’re adding an EV charger or need new wiring for a renovation, we make sure it’s done to code and built to last.
You get a system that works, documentation for your records, and a straightforward explanation of what we did and why.

Emergency electrical repairs are our specialty. Power outages, sparking outlets, tripped breakers that won’t reset, burning smells—these get priority response because they’re safety hazards.
We also handle the upgrades that older Mokena homes need. Panel replacements for systems that can’t handle modern appliances. Adding circuits for home offices, EV chargers, or kitchen remodels. Rewiring sections of the house where the insulation on old wiring has deteriorated.
Electrical inspections matter if you’re buying a home in Mokena or you’ve noticed problems but aren’t sure of the cause. We’ll walk through your system, identify what’s failing or outdated, and give you a clear picture of what needs attention now versus what can wait.
You also get access to our discount programs—military, first responders, seniors, teachers, students, and new customers all qualify. We’re licensed to work in Mokena, IL, and every job meets current electrical code requirements.
We offer 24/7 emergency electrical service, which means we’re available nights, weekends, and holidays. Response time depends on where our techs are when you call and how many emergency calls are already in the queue, but for true emergencies—power outages, sparking outlets, burning smells—we prioritize same-day service.
When you call, we’ll give you an honest timeframe. If we’re an hour out, we’ll tell you. If it’s going to be longer, we’ll let you know that too. Most emergency calls in Mokena get a response within a few hours.
What counts as an emergency? Anything that’s a fire risk or leaves you without power. Flickering lights can wait until morning. An outlet that’s smoking cannot.
Panel upgrades typically range from $1,500 to $4,000 depending on the size of the panel, the condition of your existing wiring, and whether we need to relocate the panel or upgrade your service from 100 amps to 200 amps. Most Mokena homes built before 1990 have 100-amp panels that struggle with modern electrical loads.
The cost includes the new panel, labor, permits, and the inspection. If your main service line from the street needs upgrading, that’s a separate cost and involves coordination with ComEd.
We’ll assess your current system and give you a fixed price before we start. If we find additional issues once the panel is open—damaged wiring, improper grounding—we’ll explain what needs to be addressed and why, and you decide whether to move forward.
Flickering lights usually mean your electrical system is struggling to handle the load. When a high-draw appliance like an AC unit, space heater, or dryer kicks on, it pulls a surge of power. If your panel or the circuit feeding that appliance is undersized or if there’s a loose connection somewhere, the voltage dips momentarily and your lights flicker.
In older Mokena homes, this often points to an outdated electrical panel that can’t distribute power efficiently. Sometimes it’s a shared circuit—your lights and a major appliance are on the same circuit, which they shouldn’t be.
We trace the circuit, check the panel, and test the connections. If it’s a capacity issue, we’ll recommend adding a dedicated circuit or upgrading the panel. If it’s a loose connection, we’ll tighten it and verify the problem is solved.
Yes, and here’s why: electrical work that isn’t done correctly can cause fires, electrocution, or damage to your home’s wiring that costs thousands to fix later. Even “small” repairs—replacing an outlet, installing a ceiling fan, adding a circuit—involve working with live voltage and understanding load calculations, wire sizing, and code requirements.
In Mokena, IL, any electrical work beyond changing a light bulb legally requires a licensed electrician. If you sell your home and the inspector finds unpermitted electrical work, you’ll have to pay to bring it up to code or risk losing the sale.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured. That means if something goes wrong, you’re protected. It also means the work gets done right the first time, passes inspection, and doesn’t create hidden problems that surface later.
Turn off the main breaker if you can do so safely, and call us immediately. A burning smell near your electrical panel usually indicates overheating wires, a failing breaker, or a loose connection that’s arcing. All of these are fire hazards.
Don’t ignore it or wait to see if it goes away. Electrical fires often start inside walls or panels where you can’t see them until it’s too late. If you see smoke, scorch marks, or melted plastic, leave the house and call 911 first, then call us.
We’ll come out, assess what’s causing the smell, and make the necessary repairs. This might mean replacing a breaker, tightening connections, or in some cases, replacing the entire panel if it’s damaged or outdated. Electrical safety isn’t something you wait on.
Yes. Most EV chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit, similar to what powers your dryer or oven. We’ll assess your current electrical panel to make sure it can handle the additional load. If your panel is already maxed out, we’ll need to upgrade it before installing the charger.
We handle the entire installation—running the circuit from your panel to the garage or driveway, mounting the charger, and making sure everything is grounded and code-compliant. We also pull the necessary permits and coordinate the inspection.
Charging times depend on the charger level you choose. A Level 2 charger, which is what most homeowners install, fully charges most EVs overnight. We’ll walk you through your options and recommend what makes sense based on your vehicle and how you use it.
