"I recently hired Jose from Elite Power Electrical Services, LLC to install an EV charging station in my garage and handle all the necessary wiring to my electrical box. From start to finish, Jose was incredibly professional, kind, and honest—qualities that really set him apart. He took the time to explain everything clearly, completed the job efficiently, and left the workspace spotless. On top of that, his pricing was very competitive. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend Jose to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality electrical work!"

"Gave us a quote based on pictures and description to add outlets, move lighting and add switches. Also did a bigger project to install ethernet lan wiring in a mostly finished basement, a very hard project to do. He did an amazing job installing everything taking his time to make it work finding ways through the drywall etc without making holes everywhere. We hired him 2 more times for other projects and will hire him again and definitely recommend him to others.."

"Most recent project: Barrington Electric and their team inspected all the electrical outlets, replaced the damaged ones, corrected fuses that had been wired incorrectly and were not the same manufacturer, installed four new light fixtures, and added an outlet above the fireplace. They demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a strong commitment to quality workmanship. I highly recommend them for any electrical projects."

"We had a wall charger installed for our Tesla, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The electrician was very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The installation was done quickly and neatly, and everything works perfectly. Communication was great throughout the entire process — responsive, clear, and on time. Highly recommend this company if you’re looking for reliable and professional electrical work!"

FAQs for electrical service projects in Buffalo Grove, IL

In some states and municipalities, licensed and registered handypersons can change a light fixture and do minor electrical work. However, you should check with your state and local licensing boards before hiring a local handyperson. In most cases, it’s safer and more practical to hire an electrician for this job. It may cost more, but hiring a licensed electrician means they’ll get the work done to code.

Special light fixtures, known as damp-rated light fixtures, are recommended in bathrooms, particularly if they're near damp areas like showers and over the bathtub. However, in most locations, they’re not a strict requirement. For safety and longevity, damp-rated fixtures are a better choice. If you work with a lighting contractor in your area, they may be able to recommend the right kinds of fixtures for your space.

Yes, it’s possible to run a second light fixture to a switch, meaning the light switch would control more than one light fixture. Several factors can impact whether it’s possible and how much it will cost. In many cases, it may be easier and more affordable for the contractor to install independent light switches. Talk to your electrician about your idea to get their feedback.
