Best Led Lighting Upgrades in Chicago IL
My experience until today has been very positive, both for my family, friends, clients and anyone I've referred to this company. I have sent no less than 3 people to them and my family has used them for both smaller and larger projects on no fewer than 3-4 occasions. And then today happened.Skyline was called out in November or early December to install gutter heaters into my 97 year old grandmother's 4-flat. The system was installed, though they ended up staying late because the gutter heaters kept blowing fuses (she has an older electrical panel). They managed to stabilize the system temporarily and we thought there wouldn't be a problem in the future. As soon as the January ice storm hit, the gutter heaters started blowing all of the fuses again. No problem! I called Skyline but this time they sent Kent. While nice at first, his attitude quickly changed later on. I'm the type of person who looks to professionals when I have questions and I rely on them for education and information. I asked Kent some questions and he just seemed annoyed. Upon his return from the supply warehouse, I asked him if I should turn the gutter heaters off in an effort to make things a little easier for him. His response was to call me an a$$hole (multiple times) and then tell me that it's always the person behind you that is telling you how to run your f#%king business even though you've been doing it for 35 years and have '5 licenses.' Excuse me? I've done nothing but try to help make things easier for you and if I've had a question, I have asked it (as any consumer would). I don't know everything and I'm hiring you for your time as well as your professional efforts. It's not too much to ask that you be somewhat pleasant during the process.On top of this, Kent did not wear a mask. At the time (01-13-22), we were in the middle of the pandemic and at the peak of the problems with the Omicron variant. Regardless of what you may think of COVID-19, he knew that the owner was a 97 year old.The bottom line is that the job wasn't properly completed back in December and the job wasn't completed today, either. Kent, after his tirade/hissy fit, decided to leave the job site without closing the roof hatch that he opened to examine the electric gutter heaters on the roof. My 97 year old grandmother was left to find someone with a ladder who was willing to help close up the hatch so that water and ice didn't cause hazardous conditions for her tenants. It's a shame that I will no longer be recommending this company due to the unprofessional actions of their owner. They had been great up until this point. Today is simply not something I am willing to overlook.As an update, we're still left with an incomplete job. If Kent receives an honest review that doesn't meet with his approval, his response is, You're on your own, as evidenced below. Caveat emptor.

Nothing but good things to say about this company. They came out and did an assessment on Thursday and managed to squeeze me in on Friday to make sure I could run my air conditioner before the weekend got hot.Despite the wiring being all kinds of messed up and having to go out of their way to find an additional breaker, they got everything done in a timely manner and were super nice and great about explaining what they were doing. Will definitely call them again the next time I have an electrical or plumbing issue! Thanks!

Rodrigo arrived promptly and worked very quickly! I have a house with some really old wiring but he was able to diagnose and correct my issue in less than an hour. I will definitely work with T&D again!

I have used Paco and his company for big jobs and small ones. Outstanding work and great prices always. Very professional and they ensure the customer is happy. I will continue to use Paco for all my electrical needs in the future and have already discussed with him to replace my panel. Paco is a very honest man. Thank you Paco!

We bought a fixer-up and needed electrical contractors in Chicago to work on our project.
They did a wonderful job and it feels good knowing the electrical components of our home are set up properly.

I have been using Current Electric both professionally and personally for many years. They are the ONLY Electricians I can recommend without exception. They know their stuff and always come prepared (including bringing booties & white gloves) They are not the least expensive but they always give you an itemized Invoice so you know what you are paying for. Well worth it
