Install Electrical Switches, Outlets, and Fixtures James is just perfect as a handyman/electrician. He was timely, reasonable and knowledgeable. He came up with solutions when problems arose and did not change the estimate on me at the last minute like some. When James left all the electrical work I requested was done, everything was cleaned up and worked perfectly. If you are in Northern IL/Southern WI, James is excellent!!

Install Electrical Switches, Outlets, and Fixtures James was awesome to work with. He started out sharing what was required and the code for my home as it related to the smoke detectors that I needed to have replaced. He quickly ascertained what was needed, provided a quote on the job and completed the work in less than an hour. I am very happy with how easy it was to work with him and have him provide guidance on what was best for my request. I would definitely recommend him and will be using him for additional work. Thanks, James!

Install Electrical Switches, Outlets, and Fixtures I contacted James and we discussed my project. He gave me a quote over the phone and it was in line with my expectations. When we discussed scheduling, I was happily surprised that if it worked for us, He could could do it the same day! He came out within an hour and was able to complete the project that same afternoon. Professional job and everything works great.

CJ Mechanical ---James and his son were on time and completed all of the requested work in a timely manner. Their pricing was extremely competitive compared to the other 3 bids I received. They left the work areas spotless. There was a minor problem with one of the outlets they installed which was immediately corrected the following day. I would highly recommend this company for any of your electrical needs. In fact, they will be installing ceiling fans in all 4 of my bedrooms next month. Very professional and polite.

This was the first time I hired an electrician, always used a local handyman in the past. However I needed a pro because I was having a light mounted on the exterior of my house and I needed a high quality install. James was great from the start. Quick to respond, arrived on time, clean, and professional. The install looks great and no mess or patching needed afterwards. excellent quality work! Happy customer here.

CJ Russell was very quick to respond to my inquiry for a quote for my electrical project. I needed a new GFCI outlet installed in my second floor master bathroom and a new GFCI outlet installed for a sump pump in our basement, both requiring separate circuits and running wire from the outlet back to the circuit breaker box. We started instant messaging each other about the job and very quickly, I hired them. The job was scheduled about one week out from from time hired. James showed up on time, layed a tarp across our front door to wipe his feet on, put on booties over his shoes, was very nice and courteous, knew what he was doing, went right to work and worked very hard without a break until the job was finished. Both items were completed in a timely and professional manor. This was a very good experience and would definitely use them again! It is very nice knowing that I now have someone to call when I need an electrician.
Murray W. Johnsburg, IL
This family owned business was very reliable and affordable not to mention friendly. I had a simple installation of an outlet for a future microwave above the stove. Mr. Russell came out with an assistant, did the job in under one hour. Did not go over the estimated price. Great job, thank you.
Fernando G. Schaumburg, IL
They showed up early and were quickly able to assess what we needed to have done to make the changes in wiring we needed for our dishwasher as well as fixing a breaker, flashing lights, and outdoor supply issues. He got through everything quickly and professionally and did a great job.

I am very happy that I found James. I was happy with his work, attention to detail, availability, and communication.

He is very handy and knowledgeable.

Mike P. Buffalo Grove, IL
I sent out a request for an outlet to be added and he was not only prompt but reasonable and professional. He was willing to come immediately when others were weeks out. I went over some projects and he really knew his trade. I'm in the middle of a remodel so I will need an electrician this is my go to for electrician. Call him worth every penny!
David S. Maywood, IL
I called and got a same day appointment. Not only did James install lighting, he also offered to stop and pick several fixtures from which I could choose. James installed wall sconces rather than overhead lighting because that involved less work...and therefore less money for us to shell out! He cleaned up thoroughly after he was done. And also offered to set up a couple of other things for me. No complaints. High praise.
Carol S M. Highland Park, IL
I had a few different electrical projects around my home for which I requested estimates for here on help. James responded right away and we scheduled a phone consultation. His estimate was fair and he was available right away. He does quality work and is highly professional.

We were happy with their service. They were quick to respond and able to solve most of our issues on one visit. He did recommend we look at changing out our fire alert system and made sure to let me know how the new system will work and how it will be more affordable for him to install once the product arrives. We highly recommend.
Kim S McHenry, IL
James was really fantastic to work with. He spent the day at my house and worked extra hours to make sure he got the job done within the day. The electrical issues were very complicated and he was able to resolve everything and it's all working properly now. He is also really friendly and easy to communicate and coordinate with.

James with CJ Russell did a fair amount of work at our new home. He responded at all times of the day to my questions and concerns and his work was even better.
