Karen in Rogers Park

Chuck has done a little of everything for us. He has repaired our fence, done general plumbing and electrical work, caulking, fixed a phone jack, advised us on heating issues and many other things. He knows a lot about many varieties of house repair--and knows not only how to do things efficiently and well, but the scientific principles behind various home systems. And if he doesn't know a specific thing, he researches it. Most recently he changed a shower head for us (which involved some minor work on the wall pipe) and repaired an improperly installed kitchen faucet. He's intelligent, neat, pleasant, and trustworthy--and the prices he charges are reasonable. P.S. He knows about stained glass, too.

Wilshore Electric installed our new kitchen lighting, including track lighting and island overheads. They gave reliable estimates and explained different options, enabling us to make informed decisions about placement and style of lights. For example, instead of installing an expensive new juncture box and an overhead light for our small but shallow pantry, Tom Burdin suggested putting a can just outside the door. This solution was relatively inexpensive, and it provides plenty of light. When the day's work was completed, all plaster dust was gone, too. In addition, every time since this experience that we've needed help with electrical work, we've called them. They've always been courteous and pleasant to work with.
