Arnold Electrical Services

Arnold Electrical Services was founded in 2008 by Jack Arnold, a second-generation electrician, and remains family-owned and operated. The company works mainly on houses and small residential buildings on the North and Northwest Sides and in suburbs including Evanston, Park Ridge, Niles and Glenview. Services cover the jobs Chicago homeowners run into most: panel and breaker replacements, new lighting, electric meter work, rewiring of older homes with knob-and-tube wiring, whole-home backup generators, surge protection and EV charger installation. The company describes its approach as explaining the work to customers as it goes.
