    I highly recommend Orange Hat Electrical. Brian is super responsive, provided answers to all of my questions about installing a level 2 EV charger at my home and encouraged me to seek other estimates. It turned out that Brians estimate was the same as the others but I chose Orange Hat because Brian spent the most time with me explaining everything since it turned out that the work was going to me more involved than I expected. Most importantly, he did great work!

    Brian did an excellent job—responsive, clean, and really solid work overall. I’m very happy with how everything turned out and will definitely reach out to him again down the line.

    I first found out about Orange Hat Electrical through searching the internet. Our old ceiling fans light bulb was flickering until it took out the electricity of the whole room, plus its neighboring room. Brian was really thorough and quick in fixing the issue; he replaced the old ceiling fan & its light bulb, with a new and bright light bulb. Furthermore, Brian also checked the wirings to make sure theres no damage or burn due to old age. He went beyond what we actually need. The price was very reasonable too. I would highly recommend Orange Hat Electrical to anybody who needs electrical service.

    Brian is reliable, efficient and very clean. He installed an ev charger in our home and gave us excellent advice. The charger is awesome (with the ComEd hourly pricing plan we pay about 50 cents to fully charge) and everything works well. We’d definitely call Brian if we needed any other electric work done.

    I’ve had the pleasure of working with Orange Hat on a number of projects, both large and small. He is very thoughtful and thorough. Fairly priced and willing to accommodate not so easy requests. I think you’ll be happy with the results if you choose Brian.

    I found Brian (Orange Hat Electrical) through a local Facebook group as he is licensed and insured. Initially I was planning on replacing a bathroom exhaust fan and light switch. I got multiple quotes from other businesses, but what separated Brian was he asked my reasons for the job.When he learned it was less about replacing the fan and more about wanting to reduce the noisiness of the fan, he told me how I could easily replace the fans motor myself by buying the spare part online. He saved me hundreds on an easy DIY project, and now Ive got a much quieter fan!His only physical service for me was replacing the light switch, but he was so informative and helpful in every interaction I had with him I felt compelled to write this review! Unlike the other electricians who just gave me a quote, Im pretty sure Brian will be my go-to guy in the future!

    Brian replaced our basement lamps and outdoor outlets last year with ease and speed. He also explained the issues easily and helped me understand how to identify problems in the future. He will be my first call for any electrical work and I cant recommend him highly enough!He also came out last week to check why one of the outlets he replaced last year had stopped working, and when he realized the part had gone bad he switched it out quickly. Great service!

    Brian is a true experienced pro. Timely done, flexible to my schedule and everything works perfect. We had a level 2 EV charger installed.

    Messaged Brian on a Wednesday and appointment was scheduled for a Friday. No waiting around a week or longer- like a lot of other electricians I have experienced. He showed up at the agreed upon time. Did a great job helping me replace some GFCI outlets to prevent any sump pump issues. He noticed a few things that needed to be switched around on my main breaker and did it at no charge, explaining everything enthusiastically. Was a really nice guy. On his way out, I asked him a question about my recent smoke detector replacement of over 10 units that I had just taken a stab at, and how one of them was not taking to the bracket on the ceiling. He was like oh yea I’ll check that out for you, and did it at no charge. I tipped him and would highly recommend his services. Glad to know I now have a good electrician that I can reach out to in the event of an emergency or short notice job. Thanks Brian!

    Got in contact with Brian through neighborhood referral, he was very responsive and after sharing the desire to install exterior lights on my garage he assessed the scope of the work and provided a few options at different price points to meet my requests. Showed up on time and very happy with the work. I would recommend Brian and will refer him to anyone in need of a reliable electrician.

  • Review 18 (2023-03-24 - Rating: 5)

    We were experiencing some significant electrical issues and ComEd had confirmed it was not outside our property. I called Brian who made sure our problem was unlikely to be risky and then booked with us for a few days later. He arrived promptly and asked some questions that led him immediately to the likely cause. Brian was great at explaining what he was doing and why every step of the way and offered us several options for what to do next. His price was very reasonable and he is very professional. We have added him to the top of our list!

  • Review 19 (2023-08-19 - Rating: 5)

    I had an electrical emergency and did not know who to call. So by word of mouth I heard about Brian. He was not only professional, accommodating and very prompt. He was very thorough in the job to make sure everything was done correctly. Sometimes it is hard to find people you can depend on, I would recommend him 100% and definitely will use him for any electrical need. I have. So happy I found out about him through a referral.

  • Review 21 (2023-10-07 - Rating: 5)

    I reached out to Brian looking for some professional advice regarding recessed lighting in my new house. He was at the house that same day to look things over, had answers to all of my questions and even told me he could start the work that evening. From the time I reached out to the time the work was done was about 72 hours. Everything looks fantastic and I cannot say enough good things about Brian and Orange Hat Electrical. Do not hesitate to reach out to them. I cannot see myself using any other electrician down the road.

  • Review 22 (2023-05-21 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 23 (2023-06-22 - Rating: 5)

    I called because of an electrical problem and Brian responded within 20 minutes. Upon arrival he asked about the problem and was very thorough. I really appreciate how he went above and beyond explaining exactly what the issue was and what the solutions were. He communicates effectively and is extremely proficient in his trade. We have already scheduled for him to address a less pressing issue.I recommend Gardner Electrical for all you electrical needs.

    I needed a new 240V circuit installed. Brian responded quickly to my inquiry, was happy to schedule during the weekend so I didnt have to take time off work and he quoted a good price, so I went with Orange Hat. The work itself was done efficiently and cleanly. Great experience from start to finish!
