Arlington Heights customers can expect prompt service, often within the same business day for critical electrical problems. We provide clear communication about arrival times and maintain fully stocked service vehicles to handle most repairs on the first visit, minimizing disruption to your home or business.
Do I need permits for electrical work in Arlington Heights?
Many electrical projects require permits according to local building codes. As licensed electrical contractors familiar with Arlington Heights’ requirements, we handle the entire permitting process for you, ensuring all work meets code requirements and passes inspection.
What energy-efficient lighting options do you recommend for Arlington Heights homes?
For Arlington Heights homes, we typically recommend LED lighting systems that provide superior energy efficiency, lasting up to 25 times longer than traditional bulbs while consuming 75% less electricity.
Can ceiling fans really make a difference in my heating and cooling costs?
Yes, properly installed ceiling fans can significantly impact your home’s energy efficiency. During winter, running fans clockwise at low speed redistributes warm air that naturally rises to the ceiling, potentially reducing heating costs by 15%. In summer, counter-clockwise operation creates cooling air movement that can make rooms feel 4°F cooler, allowing you to set thermostats higher.

I use Parker Electric for all my electrical needs from uplights, fixture switch outs, ceiling fan installation, etc.
The latest project was installing floor outlets in my home office to eliminate cords running across the floor to wall outlets. Parker Electric was creative with my complex need. Great and knowledgeable staff and cleaned up after their work and cared well for my home. Highly recommend!

This was our first experience with Parker Electric and it was a good one. We had ceiling fixtures upgraded to LED at our nonprofit building. Thomas and Hayden arrived on time, worked with efficiency and cleaned up after themselves including disposing of the large old fixtures. They also replaced two worn out switches and two outlets without charge and the price was very reasonable to begin with. That’s something our nonprofit greatly appreciates. We look forward to working with Parker Electric again in the future.
