"Work was done on time and professionally. A very old toilet was removed and replaced. It was a messy and difficult job and was completed to our total satisfaction. The area was even left clean."

"McGregory painting was everything I hoped for and more. Not only did Luke finish ahead of the schedule we agreed on, he did extra work just to make sure everything was perfect. Not a drop of splattered paint or speck of dust left behind either. From start to finished project, pleased every step of the way. Hire them."

"Devon was prompt and efficient installing two motion sensor lights. His price was more than fair and he suggested a few other electrical fixes in the garage that needed to be done for safety reasons. He was professional and experienced and I highly recommend him for your electrical needs."

"Contacted Jose at 9 am and he responded by 3 pm and quickly diagnosed the problem and repaired the furnace. I then mentioned we were having a water pressure issue from the kitchen sink. Again, he quickly diagnosed the problem and repaired the plumbing. He responds quickly, is extremely helpful, professional and his prices are fair. I dont look forward to anything breaking, but I know who I'll call when it does! Highly recommend Romero Home Services."

Waterproofing
"Jose was prompt and efficient and did a lovely job. I needed the moldy, very old, hanging insulation removed and taken away. I have already told my neighbors about Jose. When he finished and left, downstairs was spotlessly clean. I highly recommend him. NOTE: I could not accurately list the work Jose did, so I put in foundation because I needed something. This website is flawed,because you can not list what you had done, except in the narrative, and I want people to know what an excellent job Jose did."

Roof repair water proofing no electrical, Lightning Protection - Install or Repair
"Mr. Jim Gorman who is the owner of the business called me back within a half hour of my email posting. He visited my home 3 days later, inspected things, and told me what the approximate cost would be. He and his helper then installed an entire lightning protection system on both my house and a back garage/storage area. He did things exactly as I wanted in every way. Also threw in a free weathervane which increased the beauty of my home. I would have no objection to recommending this gentleman and his company to anyone who is in need of a competently installed lightning protection system for their home/property. MID-AMERICA LIGHTNING RODS is one fine company run by a man who cares about doing good work according to the latest safety codes etc. Having lost my previous retirement home to lightning, it was very important to me to get this job done and quickly because the thunderstorm season is upon us and with the climate change, those storms are very wicked, especially here out in the country where i live!"

Lightning Protection, NO ELECTRICAL WORK
"John Sherlock and his wife Corrine called within 1/2 hour of looking for Lightning Rod installers. He was available and was over to talk with us within one hour. He sent all his credentials and licenses and insurance coverages of his business and they came over the next morning and completed the installation extremely fast. He gave a fantastic offer, and lifetime warranty coverage and will even come over and take down system when we replace the roof and place back up at no charge! His wife even saw some plants we had not put in the garden still sitting in containers, and offered and planted them in the spaces we wanted, just to help out. Very friendly, helpful, professional, extremely knowledgeable and even suggested adding Lakeland Electrics Surge Protector protection they provide to go along with the Lightning rods. Yes would have them again on any home anytime."

He installed three light timers for me to my utmost satisfaction. He made sure that I was completely satisfied before leaving. He patiently explained answers to my questions. If you have lighting needs, I recommend that you select Nuer Lighting FIRST!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesElgin Electricians are rated 4.9 out of 5 based on 591 reviews of 591 pros.
