Blacklite Electric was communicative and efficient, and had the most transparent and reasonable pricing of the electricians I reached out to for quotes. Payment was easy and no surprise charges. Additionally Neville was friendly and great to chat with, and even helped me out with an unrelated (non-electrical) issue at no charge! Will definitely be going with Blacklite Electric when I need an electrician in the future, highly recommended.

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.

We are repeat customers and every time, Sims and Sons continue to exceed our expectations!…read more A few months ago, we needed electrical work and everything went A+. Last week, we needed plumbing work. We had a scary running leak under our kitchen sink and reached out and got Darrell. Within moments, he connected us with Mike who got us on their schedule promptly. The two gentlemen who arrived were so professional and knowledgeable. They figured out the problem right away, got the necessary parts and made the repairs. Pricing was fair and again the service was outstanding. We have referred friends to Sims and Sons and will continue to do so because we trust them. So grateful for helping us through another situation in such a smooth way. Highly recommend!

They did an amazing job! My mom was very happy. I was so impressed with the work they did for my mom, especially when they responded immesiately to a call from my mom, late at night on a cold and snowy weekend. They showed up and resolved the issue (caused by a tenant) and they didn't even charge her! I did not hesitate to hire them for electrical and plumbing work at my house. They upgraded my panel to 200 amps, installed an electric tankless water heater, installed a 100 amp sub-panel in my garage, installed a level 2 EV charger, ran a 240V circuit for an electric stove and installed a water line connection for a fridge. They even installed an oudoor outlet and light fixture for a cat shelter at no additional charge. They are a family owned business with many years of experience, they do great work, they are very professional and they happen to be wonderful people. I can't say enough good things about them. All of that at very competitive rates. If you need electrical or plumbing work, call Sims and Sons. You won't regret it.

No one answered their office phone or responded to a direct message. After a couple of days waiting for a human to reply in chat, I simply got another automated response telling me to call their office if I'm still interested in this project. Well, I was interested, but I didn't get the impression that they were. I went with another company that is definitely staffed by human beings and not chatbots. This company seems to have good reviews so maybe my experience is an anomaly. First impressions are important though. If I don't feel like a valued potential client, why would I believe that this would improve as an actual customer? -Edit: I received an automated reply to this review, telling me to call their office for a complementary quote.

I called them the day of the appointment as I drove out from the city to work on maintenance issues. They confirmed time then called me back and cancelled saying their workers had another appointment with a commercial property. It was very disappointing and I see a few other reviewers saying the same. Please don't cancel last minute on people who need repairs. To be fair, they called back to reschedule but the damage was already done. I booked another company in Batavia who was so professional and showed up on time today. Choose someone else in the area!

They were able to get into places that others haven't been able to so that they could fix it the right way instead of putting a bandaid on a shortcut a previous electrician took. Very reasonably priced. Didn't charge for the time spent shopping for fixtures. Would use again.

I luckily don't have much experience with electrical issues/work, but since there were no materials or major labor needed (building fuse just needed turning back on) they just charged me the "service fee" which was $185. The price to pay for doing my own DIY light switch replacement overall, would use again for other electrical jobs due to quick communication, Kent def knows his stuff and the downtown/condo working, and the flexibility on arrival.

Stefan was awesome to work with -- quick to respond, on time, and super clear with communication. Pricing was straightforward and very reasonable, and there was no pressure or upselling, which we really appreciated. Our house had some really old electrical/conduit, and the finished work (both inside and outside at the electrical box) looks so clean and tidy. He even called me before leaving to ask where he could find a broom so he could sweep up. That level of care and pride in the job says it all. We'll definitely be calling Stefan again for smaller projects and eventually, when we're ready to add EV charging. Highly recommend!
