"The technician, Hugo, found that my daughter had blown a bathroom fuse. He swapped out the fuse for one that was working and then offered to buy a couple of packs of replacements, to which I agreed. He also suggested that the garage panel be replaced and told me what the probable cost would be. I was grateful for the information and for the creativity with which he approached the problem."

"Carman and his crew did a spectacular job upgrading our old knob and tube panel with 200 amp service. He is punctual and professional, and he stuck by the price he quoted. He showed flexibility when I expanded the job to remove the active knob and tube in the basement and wrapped up both jobs on time. He’s thorough, writing down notes of the work during walkthroughs so as not to miss details. He listened to everything we said we needed and made recommendations. I cannot recommend his services enough, and with all the work required for our home, I will be hiring him for work in the future."

Additions and Remodels
"Lou and his team did a great job on my chimney. They took before and after pictures. The quality of the work was outstanding. Lou searched all over to match my shingles, he insisted that he find the exact match and drove into Boston to find them which was way out of his way. Lou also came over at the end to inspect himself and make sure I was satisfied w the work!. I highly recommend Loy and his team for any home improvement projects you may have!!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
