We experienced several outages in our home due to faulty circuit breakers and Ryan helped us out on…read moreshort notice. He picked up the phone and reassured me that he can come out quickly and address the issue. In fact, he was able to diagnose the root cause over the phone and came prepared to resolve the issues. While fixing the issue, Ryan took the time to help me understand my electrical panel and explained the process of how he was going to fix the issue. After the work was completed, he ensured that there were no ongoing issues and that the work was completed to my satisfaction. At no point did Ryan come off as impatient or made me feel like he was rushing. He completed the fix quickly, but was very thorough in his work (something that comes with experience, practice, and being confident in the work). He was extremely kind and patient as he answered all of my questions. The rate Ryan charged was fair (i.e., no price gouging); especially given the short notice. I am definitely going to be calling on Ryan (no hesitation) for any future work that may require an electrician.

Ryan came out promptly the next day when I requested and his work was professional and clean. He explained everything he was doing along the way and left everything just as good as it was when he arrived. His rate was very reasonable and the final job cost was very close to his rough estimate. I'd recommend Ryan for electrical work and would use his services again.

Called as part of an insurance claim to get our electricity restored after a bout of huge storms…read more Keeton and Justin both were not only personable and professional but quick and super great to work with! We called since our power line had been separated from our house due to a huge tree branch falling onto it knocking us out of power. We fought with the power company tooth and nail until eventually we gave up and called SAFE. We had Keeton and Justin out to our house that afternoon and our power restored only about an hour and a half of work later. Their amazing service has earned SAFE a customer for life!

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.

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.
