Emergency Electrician in Chicago, IL

Electrical emergencies can range from inconvenient to immediately dangerous. A total power loss in the middle of a Chicago winter is not just uncomfortable; it can be a threat to your family's safety when temperatures drop below zero. A burning smell from an outlet, sparking wires, or a buzzing electrical panel requires immediate professional attention. These are not situations for DIY troubleshooting or waiting until Monday morning.

When you call MidWest for an emergency, you speak to a real person, not an answering service. Our dispatchers assess the situation, provide immediate safety guidance over the phone, and get a licensed electrician en route to your location. Because we are based in Brighton Park at 2700 W 36th Pl, we can reach most south and southwest side neighborhoods in under 20 minutes.

Common emergencies we handle include complete power loss not related to a ComEd outage, burning smells from outlets, switches, or panels, sparking or arcing at receptacles, exposed or damaged wiring from storms or accidents, tripped main breakers that will not reset, and electrical issues following flooding or water damage. If you are unsure whether your situation is an emergency, call us. We would rather assess and reassure you than have you ignore a potentially dangerous condition.
