"I treat every home like it's my own."
Services Offered
Residential electrical work done the right way. Whether it's a single outlet or a full panel upgrade, every job gets the same care and attention to detail.
Your electrical panel is the backbone of your entire home's power system. If you're tripping breakers regularly, adding high-draw appliances, finishing a basement, or buying an older home — a panel upgrade isn't just smart, it's often necessary for safety. I handle the full job: pulling the permit, coordinating with the utility, installing the new panel, and making sure every circuit is properly labeled and up to current Massachusetts electrical code. You'll have peace of mind knowing your home's electrical system can handle modern demands safely.
- 100A to 200A service upgrades
- Outdated fuse box replacement
- Adding circuits for new appliances or additions
- Permit pulling & code-compliant installation
- Utility coordination included
From a single outlet that stopped working to wiring an entire room addition — I do it all. I take pride in clean, organized work that you can see and work that's hidden in the walls. Every outlet, switch, and fixture I install is tested, safe, and up to code. I also handle the diagnostic side — if you've got flickering lights, a dead circuit, or something that just doesn't seem right, I'll track it down and fix it properly instead of just treating symptoms.
- Outlets, switches & dimmer installation
- Ceiling fans & light fixtures
- New circuit runs for kitchens, baths & garages
- Troubleshooting & repairs
- Recessed lighting & under-cabinet lighting
- Smoke & CO detector installation
Got an electric vehicle or thinking about getting one? A Level 2 home charger is a game changer — charging your car overnight at home means you wake up every day with a full battery. I'll assess your panel capacity, run a dedicated 240V circuit to your garage or driveway, and install a weatherproof outlet or hardwired charger — whichever setup works best for your home and your vehicle. Most installs are completed in a single day with minimal disruption.
- 240V dedicated circuit installation
- NEMA 14-50 outlet for any Level 2 charger
- Hardwired charger installation (any brand)
- Panel capacity assessment included
Outdoor electrical work has its own set of code requirements — weatherproof materials, proper burial depths, GFCI protection — and cutting corners outside creates serious hazards. Whether you're adding lights to a deck, running power to a detached garage, adding patio outlets, or setting up a generator hookup, I'll do it with the right materials and methods built for the outdoors. Everything is permitted and inspected when required, so you won't have problems if you ever sell the home.
- Exterior outlets & GFCI protection
- Deck, patio & landscape lighting
- Detached garage & shed power runs
- Underground conduit & direct-burial wiring
- Generator hookups & transfer switches
- Floodlights, motion sensors & security lighting
I take on smaller commercial projects for local businesses — offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and small shops. If you're opening a new space, renovating an existing one, or just need a reliable electrician for ongoing maintenance and repairs, I can help. I keep it realistic: I focus on projects I can deliver quality work on independently. If your project fits that scope, you'll get the same honest pricing and hands-on attention I bring to every residential job.
- Office & retail outlet and lighting work
- Dedicated circuits for equipment
- Electrical troubleshooting & repairs
- Panel upgrades for small commercial spaces
- Code-compliant installs with permits
Massachusetts law requires working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in specific locations throughout your home — and the requirements have gotten stricter over the years. If you're selling a home, finishing a renovation, or just not sure whether your detectors are where they need to be, I'll do a full walkthrough, identify any gaps, and get you up to code. I install hardwired detectors with battery backup, combination smoke/CO units, and interconnected systems so that when one goes off, they all go off. Don't wait until a home inspection flags it — get it handled right the first time.
- Full home compliance inspection
- Hardwired smoke & CO detector installation
- Combination smoke/CO units available
- Interconnected systems — all alarms trigger together
- Battery backup on all hardwired units
- MA code compliant — required for home sales & renovations

Real Accountability
I'm a fully licensed electrician in the state of Massachusetts, and I carry full liability insurance on every job. You're protected, the work is legal, and it's done by someone who actually knows what they're doing — not a handyman or a sub brought in from a list.
When you call or text, I pick up or call you back. There's no dispatcher trying to figure out your job over the phone and no stranger showing up at your door. You know exactly who's coming to your home, and that person will give you an honest answer about what the job actually involves.
I'll come look at the job and give you a real number before I touch a thing. No bait-and-switch, no inflated hourly billing, no "we'll see how it goes." If something unexpected comes up during the work, I'll stop and talk to you before I go any further. You're always in control of what you're spending.
No subcontractors. I show up, I do the work, I clean up after myself. Running a one-man shop means I put my name on every single job — which is exactly why I don't cut corners.
If something I installed or repaired has a problem, I'll come back and make it right — no runaround, no charge. I'd rather spend an hour on a callback than lose the referral from a satisfied customer. Your satisfaction is how I stay in business.
