"Dean inspected my water heater and gave me several options or fixing or replacing it. I decided to replace the old one and was surprised at how fast the new one was installed. Dean was very helpful, polite, and professional. Anything he moved he put back and he cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend Precision Today!"

"Al had to go into the attic to install the 3 ceiling fans and build supports for each fan.  He also rewired our basement from lots of individual lights with separate on/off pull cords to a double switch system so we can turn on half the lights with one switch and the back half with the other switch.  Also rewired our front door and garage lights so they could be operated from two locations (front door and garage).  Was very careful to clean up everything...including actually vacuuming so there were NO traces of anything left on the floor.  He show up on time and stayed until everything was perfect...and kept his cost at exactly what he quoted.
I would certainly use him again for any electrical work.  Also, Angies List customers get a guarantee that is twice as long as normal!

"As always, great service by GLP Electric. They came out right away to quote out install of an EV charger. They were able to get a relatively complex install (trenching from panel to garage, adding new circuit) in one day to avoid weather concerns. You won’t regret using them for your electrical needs."

"The outlet was installed as requested, and the technician was fast and efficient. However, I would have preferred a cleaner-looking finish and better cleanup afterward, as some stripped wires were left behind. Overall, the job was completed, but the final presentation and cleanup could have been better."

"Eduardo was very professional and he did excellent work. I needed 2 Ethernet Cables run to 2 different floors. He did a very clean install and ran everything through the attic where no cables are exposed and everything is hidden through drywall. I highly recommend him for any electrical work or internet cable work."

"Outdoor electrical outlet kept tripping the GFCI frequently but with no apparent pattern. Couldn't tell if it was the items plugged into the GFCI, the GFCI itself, another GFCI on the same line, or something else. The technician was very methodical in his approach and was able to identify the problem as a bad underground line between two of the GFCIs. Not an easy one to solve. The wires were inside metal conduit but somehow water had gotten inside the conduit. Once the cause was determined, he knew exactly what needed to be done. The technician was professional, easy to talk to and did an excellent job. Pricing was very reasonable. I am very pleased with the work and would call them again for future electrical needs."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Glen Ellyn, IL

A whole-house surge protector blocks voltage spikes from lightning, grid issues, or even large appliances before they can fry your wiring or electronics. By diverting excess current at the main panel, it shields everything from your HVAC to your phone chargers and can extend the life of pricey appliances. Homeowners in storm-prone regions or with older panels see the biggest payoff, but any home that relies on sensitive electronics benefits.

Most whole-house surge protectors work for two to three years. Low-level spikes—too small to notice—hit your panel every day and slowly wear down the internal components. Once the unit’s capacity is depleted, it can’t prevent a larger surge, so plan to replace it on schedule (or sooner if a major lightning strike occurs) to keep your electronics and HVAC equipment safe.

A surge protector begins guarding your circuits the moment an electrician snaps it into place. Whether the spike originates from a nearby lightning strike or your fridge kicking on, the protector shunts the extra current to ground before it can reach outlets or hard-wired systems, such as your AC. That instant response is why a small upfront cost can save thousands in appliance repairs.

The unit mounts on or next to your main electrical panel. Type 1 models sit on the supply side, catching outside spikes before they hit the breaker. Type 2 devices snap inside the panel and tame surges that start within the house. Either way, placement at the panel lets the protector guard every circuit at once.

Plan to swap the device every three to five years—or sooner if you upgrade your panel, add high-demand appliances, or notice flickering lights and tripped breakers. Relying on a maze of power strips is another red flag that your current setup isn’t keeping up. Replacing the surge protector at these milestones keeps your electrical system on safe footing.
