Electrical work in Bucktown
Bucktown, Chicago is organized around Milwaukee Avenue, Western, Armitage, and North Avenue. The buildings are graystones, brick two-flats, and new construction that replaced frame cottages. STS Electric sends licensed electricians for panel upgrades for roof decks and finished attics, recessed lighting on open-ceiling rehabs, and alley chargers.
How this job is scoped
Lighting added during a renovation, including recessed lights and a ceiling-fan circuit, is roughed in while the ceiling is open. The switch legs, the neutral, and the box fill are checked before drywall. Closing the ceiling and then cutting a row of holes is how a simple lighting job turns into a repair.
Storefronts, commons, and the rest of the block
Beyond the houses, the calls are Milwaukee and Armitage restaurants, bars, and shops with hoods and tight basement panels.
Inspection path
City of Chicago permits. New construction next to an old two-flat often shares an alley but not a service. We keep the new feeder off the neighbor’s meter.
Before the truck rolls
If the ceiling is open for other trades, book the electrical rough-in before insulation. Lighting and fan boxes are cheap while the joists are visible.

Shut it off if you see this
A roof-deck circuit that trips into the top-floor bedroom, or a bar panel that buzzes, gets corrected before the next service. Call (773) 721-1111.
