"Jack and his crew did a great job with the work we needed done which ended up being more complicated than we had anticipated. He charged by the job rather than the hour, which worked out well for us since his crew had to pull half the wires out of the electrical box to figure out what previous electricians had done in our condo. Jack and his crew were honest and efficient and I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again."

"The company representative scheduled a visit to discuss our project and provided a free estimate. During his visit he was very professional and explained the various options available. After 2 days the electricians arrived and completed our project within 2 hours. The electricians were very professional and explained, in detail, each step needed to complete the job. Before leaving, the electricians made sure the work area was cleared of any debris. I will definitely use AtoZ Electrical Svc for any future projects."

"Daniel addressed a not so straightforward switch replacement that I had botched. Not only did have to install it right but also had to diagnose and replace the circuit breaker in the panel. He also had to further diagnose a wire that had been melted and address that as well. He showed great problem solving skills, cleaned up and was extremely professional and friendly. Even though the job took much longer than expected, he still only charged what he had initially stated. Would hire again."

"Cris was everything you could wish for in an electrician! He was very thorough and well-knowledged, punctual and informative! You can clearly tell that he has a passion for what he does. We hired Cris to replace our electrical panel because our previous one had became corroded after only having it for 6 years! The panel was giving us issues and we’ve hired several electricians to correct the problem which presented itself with flickering lights and electrical sockets losing power. Each time we received just temporary fixes with none of them ever pinpointing the source of the problem which eventually led to the panel having to be replaced. . However, Cris found the problem that was destroying our panel within minutes and it was on the outside of our house. A disconnected pipe about 20 feet up the side of our house was allowing water to get in! We were in good hands with Cris. He was very trustworthy he stood by his every word and walked us through everything he was doing before the process as well as showing us everything he did afterwards What a beautifully done job! Our system is now working just fine with no issues and looks as clean as a whistle! I will be hiring Cris for all of my electrical needs!"

"I hired them to install three exterior lights, by my front and back doors & garage. I had the fixtures, just needed someone to install. Good work at a reasonable price. I subsequently hired them to fix some wood rot by my garage door. Ivan cams in, cut out and replaced the bad pieces, caulked and repainted. Excellent job!"

"I don't know if our job was easier, or harder than other garage heaters that this crew (company) installed. What I do know is that the job was well thought out and done on time and on the cost quoted. My guess is that the two installers spent more time here due to the scope of the job than the sales person estimated. They kept me in the loop when it came to where they were going to run gas and electrical lines and where they were going to put the heater. Used tarps to cover those areas in our house so there wasn't any cleanliness issues there. After they were done, they made certain that all of the garage was spotless. Highest praise."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Pilsen, IL

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
