Eddie and his team, John and Enrique, provided outstanding electrical service. From the initial contact to the completion of the job, they were a pleasure to work with. Their professionalism was evident in every interaction. They were polite, courteous, and respectful of my home. What truly sets Eddie and his team apart was their ability to clearly explain the issues and provide multiple options for solutions. They took the time to ensure I understood the work that needed to be done and the various approaches we could take. This level of transparency and communication was greatly appreciated. They arrive on time and their estimates are accurate. The quality of their work is excellent, and they completed the job efficiently and cleanly. I feel confident in their expertise and trust their recommendations. I highly recommend Eddie and his team for any electrical needs. They are a reliable, professional, and knowledgeable team that provides top-notch service.

Eddie was great. He educated me on my electrical issue and was quick and thorough. All of this was done while training a new employee. I will be contacting Mr.Mighty Electric for my future needs.

Eddie Morales Jr was the electrician sent by Mr Mighty Electric. He is fantastic! Very capable and polite. Super honest as well. He identified the problem as minor and quickly fixed it. The day before another electrician had proposed major and expensive repairs to fix the same issue.

Came out same day, were able to diagnose the problem, and ordered a new electrical panel for me. Ed the electrician and the customer service reps, were professional and friendly.

(Update) Ed came and installed the new electrical panel. Power has been restored to my AC and kitchen appliances. Great and professional service. Thanks!

FAQs - Emergency Electrical Services:

What qualifies as an electrical emergency?

Sparking outlets, burning smells from wiring, a complete power outage in your home, exposed live wires, buzzing sounds from your electrical panel, or any situation where you feel unsafe. If you're unsure, call (773) 406-7500 and we'll help you assess the situation over the phone.

How fast can an emergency electrician get to my home in Chicago?

Mr. Mighty Electric typically responds to emergency calls within 45 minutes to one hour in the Chicago metro area. We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Response times may vary during severe weather events.

How much does an emergency electrician cost in Chicago?

Emergency electrical service in Chicago typically ranges from $150 to $400 for the initial service call, depending on the time of day and complexity. After-hours and weekend calls may include a trip charge. Mr. Mighty Electric provides upfront pricing before starting any work — no surprise bills.

Do you charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays?

Some emergency calls outside normal business hours may include an additional trip charge. However, our hourly rates remain competitive. We always provide a clear estimate before beginning work so you can make an informed decision, even at 2 AM.

Should I turn off my breaker panel during an electrical emergency?

If you can safely reach your breaker panel, turning off the main breaker is a good first step in most emergencies — especially if you smell burning, see sparks, or notice water near electrical components. If you can't safely access the panel, leave the house and call us immediately.

Can you repair an electrical panel at night?

Yes. Our emergency electricians carry the tools and parts needed for most panel repairs, including breaker replacements, loose connections, and tripped main breakers. For full panel replacements that require a permit and ComEd coordination, we'll make the area safe immediately and schedule the replacement for the next business day.
