"Jason and his team upgraded and replaced the electrical panels, meter sockets, and most of the outlets at a multi-family property I own. They did incredible, clean, safe work. And even communicated with the tenants! They made everything easy, and the inspection passed with flying colors. Incredible job!"

"Thank you Joe/McCurdy electrical for coming on very short notice. I appreciate the time and care you took to figure out our electrical needs for the installation of a whole house water filtration system. Thank you also for the advice on some other projects we plan to do in the near future."

"It was our first time hiring an electrician and it was a very positive experience. Paul was friendly, knowledgeable, timely, professional and very reasonable price wise. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Definitely would recommend him for any of your electrical needs around the house."

"George came to price an outlet installation for my new washer. He was so direct and honest and reasonable that I hired him to do it on the spot. Two weeks later the light in my bathroom ceiling fan went out. I called him to come out and instead he diagnosed the problem (correctly) through text and led me through some simple steps to fix it. If I could cook like my mother I would have baked him a pie. Instead I'm writing this review so that everyone knows what a great electrician and person George is."

"Chris was on time professional and did exactly what I needed. Had beautiful recessed lighting put on first floor. Changed out all old bedroom light fixtures and put my favorite dimmer switches in all rooms. Communication was 110% fabulous from beginning to end of job. Highly recommend Chris and his crew."

"We have an older house (built ~1930) with largely original wiring and lathe and plaster walls. In other words a challenge when doing electrical or plumbing work. VMA Electric bid the job out carefully and coped with calm and competence with the inevitable difficulties (some incompatibilities between the main panel breaker and the charger's GFI, routing wire between the ground floor fireplace and the chimney on the roof, solution=an elegant wireless Lutron switch). Both the field and the office teams were efficient and pleasant. I would use them in the future without question. They were competent at every level. And while not the cheapest bid on all work, with an old house I have found it saves in the long run to go with an experienced firm."

Customers say: Quick response

"CH Electric were incredible! We had a major issue with our electric panel, and they were able to help us resolve it within just a few hours. They were also super flexible to add various other projects to the list last minute. Very honest, dependable, and hard-working team."
This is during the rough construction phase of the project if you look closely you can see out wiring
This is the best look at the new 200amp Service installed at the property.  We were able to work with National Grid to insure the proper sized drop was installed free of cost, and that the point of attachment could be moved so not to interfere with the siding contractor

These are some of the exterior lights that were installed.  You can also see the weather head on the new service which was upgraded from 100amps to 200amps

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Boston, MA

To select and hire an electrician for your light switch installation, start by evaluating candidates as you would for any skilled position. Ask detailed questions, request a written quote, and verify their licensing credentials. This careful screening prevents unexpected fees and ensures every aspect of the installation, including any drywall repairs, complies with code.

A light switch can malfunction due to compromised wiring or overheating conditions. Faulty connections and excess heat diminish the switch’s performance. If you hear crackling, popping, or hissing sounds when toggling the switch, this indicates active electrical faults that pose a safety hazard and demand immediate professional inspection. Prompt attention prevents further damage and ensures reliable operation.

Installing a light switch takes 30 minutes or less, on average. The installation time depends on the switch type, with dimmer switches requiring additional time compared to standard on-off switches. While the hardware replacement might be completed in 15 minutes, it's essential to adhere to safety protocols, like turning off the circuit breaker and verifying there's no power, for a safe and code-compliant installation.
