Electrical work in Chicago requires permits from the Department of Buildings. Before any electrical contractor begins work, confirm that the necessary permits will be obtained. The Department of Buildings issues permits to ensure construction work meets safety standards.

Illinois regulates electricians through the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). You can verify an electrician's license and check for any enforcement actions through IDFPR's online portal at idfpr.illinois.gov. Ask your contractor for their license number and confirm it is current and in good standing.

When hiring an electrician, ask whether permits are required for your project and who will handle the permit application—the contractor or you. Confirm the scope of work and timeline before work begins. Request a written estimate and ask about the electrician's approach to inspections and code compliance.
