Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for electrical work in Schaumburg?

Yes, Schaumburg requires a permit for all electrical service work, regardless of the scope. We handle the permit application through the OpenGov portal and coordinate with the village for inspection scheduling.

What if I live in an HOA or condo in Schaumburg?

We coordinate with your building management or HOA office to ensure compliance with community rules. Many condos have electrical closets and specific requirements for panel work that we know how to navigate.

Can you help me add an EV charging station?

Yes. We install 240V Level 2 chargers with proper wiring and code compliance. Illinois law (the EV Charging Act) now allows homeowners and HOA residents to install chargers without unreasonable restrictions.

What does an electrical safety inspection cover?

We test grounding, bonding, GFCI protection on outlets, breaker functionality, and verify the system meets 2021 electrical code standards. This protects your home and reveals any hazards or code violations.

What about parking and site access in Schaumburg neighborhoods?

Schaumburg has no grid-based road system, so neighborhoods wind and curve. Some HOAs require advance notice for contractor parking. We respect HOA rules and coordinate logistics with you before arriving.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We hold a valid Village Contractor's Business License required by Schaumburg and all necessary state and local licensing. All work is fully insured and warrantied.
