I had an emergency job as I was desperate to restore power in my investment property that has 2 tenants. A&K came over early in the morning to perform an assessment. I was quoted $8,870 to complete a re-wiring of the outside of the 2-flat building. When I asked other electricians, they told me that quote was considerably over priced, but as I was in an emergency situation, I was compelled to take the offer. A&K completed the work and the power was restored.
Before the A&K electrician left, he told me that I needed additional work done that would require him to return. His quote was $3,800. Because this was not an emergency situation, I had time to ask around again for other quotes and then wait for the availability of another electrician to complete the work. I was quoted $600 for the job by a licensed, bonded electrician. Beware of A&K as they will over-charge!

Terrible experience as well. While a service call on New Year's Day was appreciated, I was totally overcharged for a job that wasn't completely finished. More importantly, not once was I given an explanation of the work that was done and what the charges were for. Instead, he tried to convince me that a $7,000 re-working of all of my wiring was needed.
No thanks. Talk about customer manipulation. After consulting with 2 other PROFESSIONAL electricians regarding my experience, they felt uncomfortable that someone that claimed to be licensed, bonded, and insured would do such a thing. Even more entertaining, was a follow up phone call wanting my credit card information after writing him a perfectly funded check. Really disappointed. Lesson learned.

Terrible experience. I had a dishwasher that was malfunctioning. The problem appeared to be an electrical issue. I called A&K for an estimate and they were not able to give me one over the phone. I understood that they would have to come over and diagnose the problem first in order to give me a quote. They came over and tinkered around under the dishwasher for a few minutes.
After initial inspection I asked him to explain what the problem was. He was not able/willing to do this and proceeded to scribble some nonsense down on a piece of paper with a number of $600 circled on it. I asked him to explain what that cost was for and again what the problem appeared to be with the machine. The only response I could get was some incoherent explanation about his overhead cost as an electrician in Chicago and the license dues or something that he had to pay.
For that reason the cost was $600. I told him that was outrageous and I would not pay that without more information. He pulled the piece of paper back, scratched out the number and wrote $525 as if this were some kind of shady negotiation. I asked him to kindly leave. I subsequently called another electrician who eventually came over, diagnosed the problem, fixed it on the spot and provided a detailed invoice for $140. I thanked him, paid him in full and tipped him. Do not call A & K.
