    Freddy did such an amazing job on our home. He was able to successfully add an emergency generator hook up to our home. As we live in a Windy City we are often prone to power outage leaving us literally completely in the dark for days at a time. Thanks to Freddy, this is no longer a concern for our family. Also, this is not the first time Freddy has done electrical work for our family. In the past he has also performed outlet repairs for my parents home. We will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future should we have any electrical needs. If you want quality work done , I Highly recommend Freddy!

    Freddy Electrical was above a 5 star review. Quality was outstanding and his valuable information was on point. He was very thorough in his craft. He tried to explain to me in layman's terms on what he was doing. But to be honest I had no clue. I'm definitely keeping him in my contacts for any future projects I might have. Thanks for your help Freddy.

    Freddy fixed it!

    My tenant blew out one of the electrical outlet, causing it to burn. It didn't trip the circuit breaker because whatever they were plugging in must have been a loose connection on whatever that was plugged in there, .. a laptop. Then some of the other outlets went out that same wall because it tripped the breaker. A neighbor recommended a company they used once, so I called them up on a Saturday. He said he wouldn't be able to make it out until Monday anytime from 9am to 6pm! What a fool I've been. My tenant and I both waited for him all day Monday. But throughout the entire day, he never communicated or replied to my texts. But he just shows up at 5pm. So I decided to go down my next referral through Yelp and called Freddy around 4ish. He picked up right away and said he could be at the home soon. When I arrived, there were 2 electricians that showed up. Long story short, the first electrician left, and Freddy took over the job. Freddy was very efficient and honest. He patiently explained to us what needed to be done and how much it would cost. He saved me some money because the first electrician said the tenant did not use commonsense (lol!) and overused electricity that resulted in the burnt, and it needed to break the wall and rewire the panel.. Freddy said it wasn't necessary, and he showed me the wires on top is still in good condition. He installed a new outlet and closed the wires that were brittle on the bottom and put a faceplate on the bottom, and screwed it shut. He checked on the other outlets and also changed one in the kitchen that wasn't working. I highly recommend Freddy! His price is reasonable, and he's knowledgeable, honest, quick, and he communicates well with and won'tleave you hanging. Finding a good, honest electrician is hard and scary, but I felt I could trust Freddy. I will definitely use him again for future projects at other properties and refer him out to my family and friends. Thank you Freddy!!

    Old fixture in the back that was poorly mounted, not energy efficient, and did not fit the electrical box.

There's an open space between my panel…read moreand my garage, so I was told by other electricians that I'd have to get someone else to break the concrete because they don't do that. These guys were one of the few that could handle the concrete work, and they also handle all the permit work as well. Staff worked hard, finished everything quickly and made sure the work site was clean as a whistle after they finished. Everyone was really friendly, from the receptionist on the phone, the staff and the people giving me estimates. It's been more than a year since I got my EV charger installed, and I haven't noticed any problems since then. Price-wise, I feel it was pretty fair especially considering how they made everything so convenient. All in all, they did everything well. I'd have no problems recommending them to others, and will likely go back to them when I need other things addressed in the house.

    TL:DR Reasonable pricing, relatively quick appointments, and good quality work. The downside was…read morethat their communication wasn't great so there were miscommunications between various people there and I needed to be fairly persistent to make sure we moved things along and I got the work we requested. But all in all, I would use them again for sure - just knowing I might have to follow up from time to time. Longer review: we contacted them to give us a quote for a whole house fan and attic fan. Of the quotes we got, they were very reasonable and they also had appointments available relatively soon. The person who came for the quote wasn't sales-y either which was a plus. I won't go into details of the various hurdles to communicate with them but it just wasn't very smooth. When they came to do the attic fan first, they told me they could only do that because the whole house fan had not arrived yet. Then they installed it and forgot to install a switch which was part of the quote. When they came to do the whole house fan a week later, again they didn't know to install a switch for the attic fan. I also had trouble with the invoice. Ultimately, they had a good price and did good work so I'm satisfied but just couldn't give them 5 stars because the overall experience was a little clunky. That said, I would definitely use them again.

For the lighting/outlet install, instead of using any kind of drywall saw or cutting tool, they just used a hammer to put holes in our walls and ceilings in order to run wiring and install switches/lighting. This left our home looking crazy and made it unnecessarily difficult to make drywall repairs. Also, a number of the recessed lights they installed were not even symmetrical. On the exterior panel install, they swore up and down that the existing panel could not be replaced without major rework to the wall. So, thinking it was my only option, I approved the location of the new panel off to the side. However, I absolutely did not approve them coming out of the wall at an angle with that large flex conduit the way they did. After addressing these issues with them, their only response was that they could relocate the panel for the same cost as the original installation. Overall, it became clear to us that All-In-One Electric only cared about getting the job done as quickly as possible and had little to no respect for our home. They made it clear that their aim was to do the bare minimum as long as it was "up to code." I would not recommend their services to anyone after this experience.

I was originally going to go with the other company but Angel mentioned they can obtain a permit. After doing research I asked the other company if they offer that and they said I can apply for a permit. I wasn't too fond of that especially because they said it would be under my name. So I went with propower, who then did all the work of obtaining the permit for me. Once I got a date set, they quickly came out and got it installed within a few hours. They scheduled the inspector to come out the next day and I got my permit the day after. Angel and his team were very knowledgeable. Thomas who did the install said I needed to save a paper that had a QR code for my Tesla charger and even explained what I needed to do after. Lastly, Issac was there for the inspection which was supposed to happen anywhere from 8-12 he explained what the process would look like and assured me it would be very quick. I kept my garage open and stayed as long as I could. Unfortunately, I had client calls to take at 9:30 but it was great to hear the inspector came and then Issac ensured to close my garage for me even though I could not. Very comforting. Will definitely go to them for future electrical projects. Highly recommend!

Turns out a wire in the outlet they repaired wasn't reconnected so we lost current to the new separate outlet that was chained to the repaired one (luckily was able to find it and fix it myself). Pros: Quick response, good communication, pleasant interaction, repaired original problem. Cons: No warranty/guarantee of service, they didn't double check everything in the area they worked on before leaving (I should have too). When I found a problem after they left (even if it's the same day in the area that they were working on), I would have had to pay a full service fee again.
