Greene Electric Company - Chicago's Top-Rated Electrical Repair

Many of Chicago's beautiful older homes still have original knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, which can degrade over time and become a serious fire hazard. Our comprehensive electrical inspection identifies these aging systems, overloaded circuits, and any DIY repairs that may not meet current safety codes, giving you peace of mind and a clear plan for necessary updates.

Yes, GFCI outlet failure is very common here, often due to moisture from our climate or simple wear and tear in older installations. A persistently tripping GFCI is a safety warning. Our electricians will inspect the outlet and the circuit it protects to diagnose if it's a faulty device, a wiring issue, or a ground fault elsewhere, ensuring your shock protection is fully functional.

Our inspection is tailored to Chicago and Illinois electrical codes. We check for proper grounding, adequate circuit capacity for modern appliances, the condition of your service panel, the functionality of all GFCIs (required in wet areas), and the integrity of your home's wiring. We provide a detailed report with prioritized recommendations to bring your home up to safe, current standards.
