He came in, laid down cloths and installed in no time. Cleaned up beautifully afterwards. I will use him again when I have a need. Never thought that i would be satisfied with Angie's Service, but she made me a believer.
Description of Work: Needed a reliable and reasonable electrician to help with routine issues. For this service I needed him to install a chandelier in the hallway which was 16 feet high.

The owner (Jack) came by to see what needed to be done, provided an estimate, and then scheduled a date to do the work. They were on time and did the work and cleaned up afterwards.
Description of Work: I hired Blazer to remove some old non-functioning wiring as the result of a home inspection. They were easy to work with, very responsive, and fairly priced. I'll use Jack and his workers again.

Bought an Angie's List deal to swap out an old electric panel. Had to supplement to upgrade to a 200amp panel and get all new breakers, but that was expected. Nice guys, clean work, and happy with the results.

They were extremely professional and knowledgeable. The owner came with the worker. He took off the panel and showed me everything; he was very detailed.
Description of Work: They did a whole house electrical inspection for us. We also had them do additional work but they were happy to do it. They were able to install a highly complicated light switch effortlessly. They did it without looking at any kind of instructions. They walked through all of the details with us. From the time we purchased the house some code details that had since changed were also pointed out to us

Blazer sent out one person for the electrician I ordered through angies list. He was very courtious and helpful. Did a nice job connecting three outlets to the main power lines in our house. My wife wanted an additional outlet and can light added which he completed in about 4hrs total time. I would use these guys again.

This was an all-day job, and it went smoothy. Old parts were collected for disposal. We are quite satisfied with the results.
Description of Work: They replaced and upgraded (with surge protection) the electrical panel board (25+ years old) for the house. As part of the work, they had to tie in with the circuits covered by a gas-powered generator. Circuits and wiring were reset and organized to overcome many modifications to the board. It is now organized and easier to understand.

I bought the $99 coupon for 2 hours of electrical work. After some back-and-forth on scheduling, Jack came out Friday and began work. He ran into some unexpected framing which necessitated a new extended drill bit so he returned Saturday to complete it. It took four hours total and he gave us the coupon rate of $99 for the extra two hours which seemed fair. The light looks good and I would definitely use him again.
Description of Work: Installed recessed light in bedroom.

We settled on a price and a plan and early Friday morning I met with Patrick. Jack, too, stopped by a couple of times to check in. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

Jack, the owner, was very responsive from the moment I called him until we were finished with the project about 2 months later. His crew worked in our house about 3 times during the course of the remodeling, during different "phases" of the project. Jack was always able to fit us in within a few days of when we needed him in order to keep our project moving forward. He was very easy to work with and provided good advice, and his crew did a good job. They knew what they were doing and responded well to questions and concerns.
Description of Work: Blazer Electric did all the electrical work for a remodeling project of our laundry room and kitchen. They installed approximately 12 can lights and 2 light fixtures, set up electricity for our kitchen island and a microwave in the pantry, relocated wall sockets and installed new switches, and hooked up our appliances.

electrician, generator service
  + 0 more
It went very well. Our timing to purchase the generator was not good though. Just as we decided we needed one, there was a big storm on the East Coast and then another in California and you could not buy a generator in Illinois. Jack bird-dogged the availability of the generators for several months until one became available. He installed it in less than one day and also built up a platform (at my request to keep it above an area that occasionally floods) for no additional charge. The generator works fine and runs a self-test every week. It has kicked in once for several hours when the electrical service when out and I did not even notice it was running when I returned home. Also, don't forget to check to see that your gas line is sufficient to power the generator. Jack prompted us on this and we had Nicor check it out. It required an upgrade of the gas meter and this had to be scheduled and installed before the generator. If you are considering getting a generator, you should seriously consider having Jack Blazejewski and Blazer Electric install it.
Description of Work: Installed a 17KW Generac whole house generator, including panel

I purchased a Big Deal for $99.00 for 2 hours of electrical work from Braver Electric. I knew that my kitchen and laundry room had no GFIs and were not up to code for today's standards, plus the recessed light over the kitchen light would not turn off and was making a scary "hiss" when I flipped the switch. I called Braver on Wednesday and Jack said he could get me in on Thursday. I already had some appointments scheduled for the day and suggested Friday instead. Already with a full schedule for Friday, he asked if 7AM on Thursday would work. We agreed that his Patrick, one of his electricians, would be there at 7:00 to assess what materials we needed and that Jack would pick them up while Patrick worked on the overhead light. Well, it worked out perfectly. Patrick arrived right on time, found the problem without having to replace the entire fixture, and Jack returned quickly with the necessary materials. Jack presented my with his credit card receipt from the home improvement store and I wrote him a check for the $100 worth of things. Patrick finished the job exactly in two hours, although Jack had offered additional time for $50.00/hour if necessary, which I thought fair. My lights are working and there is no evidence of any mess. The outlets look much more clean and modern and I have found a provider I will definitely use again.

They were very efficient and all fans are now working with remotes. Will use them again.
Description of Work: Jack was very responsive to my request to have someone come look at the ceiling fans in the home we just purchased. He was able to get someone out to us the next morning to determine if the ceiling fans were operable or not. The person who came to the house was very knowledgeable and was able to reprogram all the remotes and get the fans working for us again.

I called and left a message for Jack to contact me regarding the panel swap out. He took my information and called me back later that night to get the property address and to provide me with the information he required. Jack asked that I take pictures of the present electrical panel, the exterior meter and service line. We made a tentative appointment to have the work done in mid December. Before I could even take the pictures requsted, Jack called and told me that he had a cancellation and could do the work this upcoming Saturday. I gave him the access information and he told me he would be there at 7:00 a.m. on Saturday morning. I thought I would get a call from Jack before he started the work because of the age of the box but when I spoke to him at 9:30 a.m. that Saturday, he had already started the swap out. I dropped by to check on the work and was impressed by what Jack and his assistant had done by the time I got there. A new Square D box was installed and they were finishing up the installation of new circuit breakers. The work was done very neatly and they cleaned up after themselves. That is quite unusual for most tradesmen who generally leave the placed looking worse for wear when they are done. Jack even pulled new wires for a G.F.C.I. outlet that had been recently installed, it appears the electrician that originally did the work cut a corner or two. All in all I am very pleased with the work done by Blazer Construction. I would not hesitate to hire them to do work for me in the future.
Description of Work: I took advantage of an Angie's List Deal to change the electrical panel on an investment property that I owned. The old box was dated, crowded and the quality of work left a bit to be desired. Jack from Blazer Electric came in and replaced the entire box with a new one and installed a whole house surge protector as well.

He was wonderful. The inspection went very well. He provided a thorough report and explained everything to us. He spent more time than I anticipated due to the problems as we live in an older home. The inspection went so well that we had him come back to fix all of the problems that he found. I immediately felt a trust with him because of his knowledge and he took care of everything that we needed to bring our house up to code.

The owner called me back promptly after I first left a message requesting an estimate, and he came to our home to see the problems and prepare an estimate very promptly. We had a rather serious electrical short and he therefore made our job a priority for his staff. When they came out to do the work, they worked very hard and efficiently, and they dealt with some unexpected structural issues quickly. I was very pleased with the results and the price was quite reasonable for such an extensive project. We had obtained quotes from some other electrical companies but this one was very fair. I also very much appreciated his helpful recommendations. We had contemplated additional work being done and he recommended against it as unnecessary for our home's needs, even though he would have made a larger profit if he had done the additional work that we thought might be needed. I value that sort of honesty in a contractor. We received a good deal from an honestly run company, who used skilled and hard working electricians to get the job done right the first time.
Description of Work: Replaced the electrical panel, added a whole house surge protector, rewired portions of the house where electrical circuits were malfunctioning, added a second electrical circuit to kitchen, replaced exterior lighting, added exterior outlets.

We've used Blazer several times in the past. Jack, the owner, offered to have an electrician at our house 7am Mon morning after a Sunday afternoon email went to him, but the timing didn't work for us. Jack showed up around 1pm on Monday and took a look, advising us to buy new fixtures. Monday night I bought two fixtures, and let him know. He had someone come to our house on Wed afternoon. Jack also stopped by about an hour into the job. They replaced the fixtures and fixed the wiring problem. One thing I particularly like about Blazer is that they're good about responding to emails, which is convenient for me. I emailed him to get some details about the specific problem after the job was complete, and received a response within 24 hours. We plan to continue using Blazer for all of our electrical needs.

I was very pleased, as I was with Blazer's service some time previously. The work was very well done. In order to install one of the fans it was necessary to cut into drywall in several places. The crew cleaned up after that and were careful to save the dry wall pieces so that patching could be easily done. All in all, a very nice job.
Description of Work: I contacted this company to do miscellaneous electrical work on a house we bought in Oak Park. They did many small jobs including new electrical outlets, repair of some outlets, installing lighting, installing ceiling fans etc. One of the fans involved fairly extensive work. I had a little difficulty getting the work scheduled because they are very busy. Eventually, it was done on two successive Saturdays.

Jack and his crew did our eletrical upgrade from 100 to 200amp, also brought the outlets up to code, installed a ceiling vent and light. His crew was really professional, worked hard for several days. It passed the village inspection. After ComEd transferred the line, he came as promised and removed the old box.
