    On Friday night a storm knocked over the tree in the back yard and ripped out my mason bracket from the wall, and bent the bar holding the wires. We called a 24/7 place in Chicago area and a group said at 8 am Saturday they'll be there. So they roll in at 8am and the power company cut the power off at 3 am. (we didn't even lose power.) So they start working and I'm like how much is this going to be. 6k. WTF?! just for new wires down to the meter and a new bracket?! They said it would be covered by insurance. (Insurance is like.. ah fuck no.) Overpaid for their service for sure. Shop around and get more than one quote especially from these guys. I'm just angry at MYSELF for letting them take advantage of us when we needed a fair deal.

    They quickly fixed the short circuit in my bathroom and gave me a good price. Knowledgeable and friendly.

    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.

    I strongly advise against hiring Alambre Electric. Our experience was deeply frustrating and…read moreultimately led to legal action. We signed a contract for $16,000, expecting a professional and reliable service. At the start, there were 2-3 workers on site, but they soon stopped showing up regularly. When I asked for updates, I received vague and inconsistent explanations. Work resumed sporadically, but progress remained minimal. There were also serious concerns about professionalism. Workers were smoking in our basement and around the property, and empty beer cans were frequently left behind. This created an uncomfortable and unacceptable environment in our home. Despite having already paid more than half of the contract upfront, the team completed only about a quarter of the agreed-upon work. At that point, the owner demanded an additional $5,000 and stated they would walk off the job if we refused. When we referred back to the signed contract, he began disputing items that were clearly included--such as the electric stove and cooktop--even though we had documentation and prior discussions confirming this. After being presented with proof, he shifted his reasoning, citing increased costs and business expenses. Those are not the customer's responsibility. We ultimately involved the City's Department of Building and Electrical in an effort to resolve the situation. While the work completed met code requirements, the broader dispute remains unresolved. The owner attempted to deflect blame by mischaracterizing our conduct, which was both inaccurate and disappointing. This situation has now escalated into a civil case as we pursue recovery of our funds. If you value reliability, transparency, and professionalism, I recommend looking elsewhere. Based on our experience, this is not a company I would trust with my home.

We had a very detailed contract, but Jonathan figured he would try to squeeze more money out of us because his workers were costing him to much. We caught them smoking weed at the worksite, arriving late , and several mistakes where done. It's not the client responsibility to keep the employees in check and if they cost you more than you calculate - don't try to extort your client, own up to it and be a business owner. When Jonathan couldn't extort more money, he decided to leave the project in a very bad condition and not return to finish anything. We had several electricians come by to try to finish his job and many refusing even giving a quote due poor craftsmanship done by Alambre's crew. We have a ton of documentation backing our claims and poor craftsmanship done. Stay away from this company if you're doing any home / residential work - as they will try to scam you, even with a detailed contract, several site inspections and calls with architects on the scope.
