We're in need of a good electrician to help with some aluminum wiring issues. Any suggestions?

Is the entire house wired with aluminum or just a small section? If you have the means, get it all out. Modern copper wire is far safer than aluminum.

It's a major portion of the house. We would like to replace everything that is accessible, but quite a lot of it is not. In any case, what I really need right now are some names. It's not a DIY job, though we considered it. Any suggestions?

While I don't know of anyone in particular to recommend, I do highly recommend subscribing to Angie's List. They have a lot of quality reviews - not just people complaining or writing flowery language like on yelp. I found a good plumber and locksmith from the site.
