At Barrington Electric, we’re more than just an electrical company. We’re a trusted neighbor and long-time part of the Barrington, IL community, with a deep understanding of the homes and businesses that make up the northwest suburbs. We know that the electrical system running behind your walls is what keeps your daily life moving, and we treat every job, big or small, with the care and attention it deserves.

Whether we’re carefully updating the wiring in a classic older home or setting up the latest smart home technology in a new build, our commitment stays the same: doing the job right, keeping your home safe, and making sure everything works beautifully for years to come.
A Foundation Built on Transparency and Technical History
Barrington Electric was built on a simple idea: homeowners in this area deserved more than a company that just shows up, does the job, and leaves. They deserved a team that takes the time to explain things clearly, answer questions honestly, and truly have their best interests at heart. That belief has shaped everything we do from day one.
Over the years, we’ve grown by earning the trust of our neighbors, one project at a time. From a small local operation to one of the area’s most respected electrical contractors, our growth has always been driven by a commitment to doing things the right way, with care, honesty, and a high standard of work that our community deserves.
Our Mission: Synchronizing Modern Innovation with Home Safety
Our mission is simple: help Barrington homeowners bring their homes up to speed with the demands of modern living, without cutting corners or compromising on safety. We believe your home should work for you, supporting the technology and appliances you rely on every day, all backed by a solid and dependable electrical system. We also believe you should always understand what we’re doing and why, so we take the time to walk you through every recommendation we make in plain, straightforward language.
Whether we’re setting up a backup generator, installing an electric vehicle charger, or tackling something in between, our goal is always the same: leave your home safer, more efficient, and built for whatever comes next. We work hard every day to be the electrical company that Barrington families trust most, because we know that great technical work and friendly, personal service should always go hand in hand.
