The buildings and the wiring

Libertyville, IL is organized around Milwaukee Avenue, downtown Libertyville, and the streets near the Metra station. The buildings are older downtown-adjacent homes, newer subdivisions, and a traditional main street. STS Electric sends licensed electricians for downtown tenant improvements, subdivision service work, and garage or shop circuits.

How this job is scoped

A panel or meter that has been under water does not get dried out and re-energized. Corrosion inside the cabinet and at the lugs shows up later as heat. We treat flooded gear as a replacement, then deal with the sump, freezer, and boiler circuits that were added to whatever breaker was open.

Storefronts, commons, and the rest of the block

Beyond the houses, the calls are Milwaukee Avenue and downtown restaurants and retailers.

Failures we open the same day

A restaurant panel in a flooded basement after a storm is replaced, not dried and re-energized. Call (773) 721-1111.

Before the truck rolls

After a basement flood, do not turn the main on to ‘test it.’ Send photos of the water line and keep the panel off until it is examined.

Who inspects this address

Village of Libertyville permits. Main Street buildings often have the panel in a basement shared with storage. We need access to the whole service, not only the suite.

Bordering areas

Jobs here often sit next to work in Lake Bluff and Long Grove. One dispatch number covers them: (773) 721-1111. Crews leave from 939 W North Ave.

  Excellent Work and Responsive Customer Service!

I highly recommend STS Electric. We hired them to address a significant electrical issue in our daughter’s older Chicago condominium, and I was very pleased with the quality of their work and their professionalism.

What initially appeared to be a relatively straightforward electrical problem turned out to involve improperly wired kitchen outlets connected to the dryer circuit. The STS team identified the issue and installed three new kitchen circuits, running new conduit from the basement to the third floor. It was a substantial project, particularly given the challenges of working in an older building, and the electricians worked diligently over two days to complete it.

I especially appreciated Sam, the supervisor, who was accessible, professional, and very responsive to my scheduling and timing concerns. He understood the importance of getting the work completed promptly and made a genuine effort to accommodate our needs. The office staff was also helpful and responsive throughout the process.

It’s reassuring to find a company that can handle a challenging project while maintaining good communication with its customers. I’m very pleased with the completed work and would gladly recommend STS Electric to others.

  We have been fortunate to find STS Electric. The team is excellent at their work and most professional.  At all times they let you know how the job is proceeding.

They have come out late on a Saturday to address and issue. And at all times are polite and responsive.

You cannot go wrong hiring them.

  We were in a horrific bind At our condo after a surge caused extensive damage to our property. STS was able to come out incredibly quickly when ComEd wouldn’t respond. They assessed the issue, got to work and even was able to get ComEd to turn off and then eventually turn back on power to our building. They were professional, courteous, and clearly experts on the problems that we were having. Sam and his team were lifesavers and I would recommend them to literally anyone who had any issues, big or small.

  Professional, punctual, and went above and beyond. Juan and Jose lined up the electrical boxes so it looks good and added the requested outlets as asked all while I was working from the next room. Will hire again for my future electrical service needs, without question.

  I had the pleasure of Sam’s assistance this morning with my tripped breaker. I am a female homeowner and Sam walked through it to get my power turned back on. STS is stored in my phone for future electrical issues. Ladies don’t hesitate to call them!
