Reviews
These are real reviews from customers who have used our Electrician services in Colchester and the surrounding communities in IL.
We had a panel that was constantly tripping a 40-amp breaker connected to our HVAC. Called No Joke electrician after two other Colchester electricians told me it would be a week wait. They had someone here the same evening. The diagnosis was a failing breaker that was reading lower than its rated threshold. Replaced it, tested the full panel, and everything has been solid since. Fast, honest, priced exactly as quoted.
I manage several rental units in Colchester and one of my tenants called about an outlet that had stopped working and felt warm to the touch. I called No Joke electrician and they arrived within the hour. The outlet had a loose back-wire connection that had been getting hot. They replaced the outlet and the damaged section of wire. No overcharging, clear explanation, and documentation I could keep for my records. Will absolutely use again for my Colchester properties.
Needed a 240-volt circuit run to a new workshop in my garage in Colchester. The previous estimate I got from another contractor was vague and had a bunch of potential add-on charges listed. No Joke electrician gave me a flat quote, showed up on time, ran a clean dedicated circuit from the main panel with the right gauge wire, pulled the permit, and passed the inspection in one visit. That is exactly how a job should go.
