When the power goes out or something stops working at the worst possible time, Geneva residents and business owners count on Hi-Lite Electric to respond fast and handle it right. We are a family-owned electrical contractor with fully equipped vans available around the clock, serving homes and commercial properties throughout Kane County.
When you reach out to Hi-Lite Electric, we start by learning as much as we can about what you are dealing with, and for anything beyond a straightforward request, an on-site visit in Geneva lets us assess the situation accurately before putting together a fair project quote. Once scope and estimate are agreed upon, we schedule efficiently and show up when we say we will, with the tools and materials needed to get the work done without unnecessary return trips. Our electricians leave the work area clean and the installation complete, so you are not left managing loose ends after we are done.

Geneva’s Third Street corridor and surrounding neighborhoods are full of Victorian and early 20th-century homes that still carry original knob-and-tube wiring or early panel configurations, and the newer subdivisions on the east side bring their own demands, from panel upgrades to EV charger circuits that need dedicated capacity. Hi-Lite Electric is not just here for the call you make today; we are a resource you can come back to when you are ready to expand, upgrade, or plan your next electrical project. Whether it is a future commercial build-out or a home addition down the road, we are glad to talk through what that would involve and help you plan ahead.
Hi-Lite Electric operates 24/7 with fully stocked vans ready for emergency calls at any hour, including nights and weekends. Response time depends on current call volume and location, but we prioritize emergency situations and dispatch as quickly as possible.
For straightforward situations, we can often provide a project quote based on an initial conversation, but many emergency and installation calls require an on-site visit first to properly assess what is needed. We will always be upfront about what we can determine remotely versus what requires eyes on the work before we can give you an accurate estimate.
