FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers to what Chicago homeowners ask us most about electrical work.

When do I need emergency electrical services?

Turn to an expert when you need emergency services. You may need professional help ASAP if you see smoke or sparks, have no hot water, or hear odd sounds from your appliances.

Will security lights significantly increase my electric bill?

With modern LED technology and motion-activated options, security lights add minimal cost to your electric bills. Most homeowners see an increase of just $10-$20 monthly, a small price for enhanced safety. Solar-powered options eliminate additional electricity costs entirely.

Do your electrical services come with a guarantee?

Yes. Every electrical service call is backed by our Precisely Right or We Pay You guarantee. If an issue we repair is not fixed correctly, we will make it right or pay up to $500. Ask your electrician for complete terms and details.

Do you offer emergency electrician service?

Yes. Emergency electrician Chicago coverage is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. Call right away for sparking outlets, burning smells, warm panels, or any partial outage that isolates part of the home.

Do I need a licensed electrician in Illinois?

For most permitted electrical work in Illinois, yes. Unlicensed electrical work can void homeowner insurance, fail inspection during a future sale, and create real safety risk. Precision Today employs licensed Illinois electricians on every job, with permits pulled where required.

How much does an electrician cost in Chicago?

Pricing depends on the work, parts, permits, and the time required. Precision Today provides written upfront pricing before any work begins, with flat-rate quotes on most repairs and itemized estimates on installs. Financing is available for larger projects like panel upgrades and full rewires.

What are the signs I need an electrical panel upgrade?

Recurring breaker trips, fuses where breakers should be, a panel that is warm to the touch, a 60- or 100-amp service in a home with EV charging or central AC, scorch marks on the panel, or any home addition or major appliance install that exceeds your current load are all signs a panel upgrade is worth pricing out. Most modern Chicago homes are best served by a 200-amp service.

Do I need to rewire my old house in Chicago?

Most older Chicago homes do not need a full rewire, but knob-and-tube, ungrounded two-prong outlets, and aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and early 1970s do deserve a professional inspection. A partial rewire, panel upgrade, and grounded outlet retrofit can usually bring the home up to modern code without tearing every wall open. Our electricians will tell you exactly what is needed and what is not.

Why do my lights flicker when an appliance turns on?

Brief flicker when a high-draw appliance (AC, dryer, microwave) starts is normal in many older homes; the appliance pulls a momentary surge as the motor kicks on. Persistent flicker across multiple rooms, dimming that lingers, or flicker tied to multiple appliances usually points to a loose neutral, an undersized service, or a panel that has reached its limit. Each of those is a job for a licensed electrician, not a DIY fix.

Do you serve Chicago suburbs and outlying communities?

Yes. We serve homeowners across Chicago from our Carol Stream, Oak Brook, Franklin Park, Palos Heights, and Grayslake offices. If you are not sure whether we cover your address, give us a call and we will let you know right away.

Why do my lights flicker on and off?

Flickering lights are a sign of not enough power flowing through your system. A new electrical panel or circuit breaker may be needed.

Do I need new electrical wiring for my old home?

If your house is over 50 years old, rewiring may be a good idea. We can discuss your options and provide the wiring services you need.

How long does an electrical panel last?

Typically 25–40 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions.

How much does security lighting installation typically cost in Chicago?

Varies based on property size, number of lights, and installation complexity. We provide detailed, transparent estimates.
