Electrical Services in Somerville

Whether it's a simple outlet repair or a complex commercial build-out, our electricians deliver professional results every time.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

We carefully remove aluminum branch circuit wiring, pull new copper conductors through your existing pathways, terminate every connection at outlets, switches, and the panel, and restore your walls.

Electrical Panel Upgrade

We disconnect the utility feed, swap your outdated panel for a modern load center, re-land every circuit on correctly rated breakers, and coordinate the final inspection with your municipality.

Electrical Wiring & Rewiring

Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.

EV Charger Installation

Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.

Hot Tub / Pool Electrical Wiring

Water and electricity are a deadly combination. Pool and hot tub wiring requires GFCI protection, proper bonding of all metal surfaces, and specific clearance distances. Our electricians follow NEC Article 680 to the letter.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Installation

Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, making professional detector placement critical. Properly installed CO detectors give your family early warning before dangerous levels build up.

Security Camera Wiring

We run Cat6 or coax cable from each camera location to your DVR or NVR, mount cameras at optimal angles, install weatherproof junction boxes, and power everything through a centralized system.

Landscape Lighting Installation

Highlight your home exterior, illuminate walkways, and boost curb appeal with professionally designed landscape lighting. A well-lit property also deters intruders and prevents trips and falls.

Smart Home Electrical

Control your lights, thermostats, locks, and more from your phone or voice assistant. Smart home wiring creates a connected, energy-efficient home that simplifies your daily routine.

Commercial Electrician Services

Minimize downtime and keep your business running with commercial electrical services designed for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and restaurants. Reliable power protects your revenue and your reputation.

Ceiling Fan Installation

Ceiling fans involve heavy fixtures and live wiring above your head. Our licensed electricians ensure every connection is secure, every mount is load-rated, and every fan runs safely.

Circuit Breaker Repair

We test the suspect breaker with calibrated equipment, check for loose bus connections and signs of arcing, replace the faulty breaker with a matching UL-listed unit, and load-test the circuit.

Whole House Surge Protector

Power surges destroy electronics, damage appliance control boards, and can even start fires. Our electricians install UL-listed surge protectors with proper grounding to defend your entire electrical system.

Indoor Lighting Installation

Heavy chandeliers, track lighting, and pendant fixtures require properly rated electrical boxes and secure mounting. Our electricians ensure every installation is safe, level, and wired correctly.

Ring Doorbell Installation

Improper doorbell wiring can damage your transformer or void your warranty. Our electricians verify voltage, test connections, and ensure your Ring operates safely and reliably.

Electrical Repair Services

Our electricians diagnose the root cause of the problem, explain the repair before starting, fix the issue with commercial-grade materials, and test the circuit to confirm a lasting solution.

Generator Installation

Keep your home powered through any outage with a professionally installed backup generator. Enjoy uninterrupted comfort and security when the grid goes down.

Electrical Troubleshooting

We use thermal imaging, multimeters, and circuit analyzers to trace faults through your wiring, identify the exact failure point, and recommend the most cost-effective repair.

Electrical Installation Services

We review your project requirements, pull necessary permits, install wiring and devices using commercial-grade materials, and schedule the final inspection to close out the permit properly.

Recessed Lighting Installation

Recessed lights create a clean, modern look while flooding your rooms with even illumination. LED recessed fixtures also cut your lighting energy use by up to 75 percent.

Electrical Inspection

We examine your panel, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding system, and GFCI protection room by room, then deliver a detailed written report with findings and recommended corrections.

Outlet Installation

Our electricians locate the nearest power source, run new wiring through your walls, install the outlet box, and test the circuit to confirm safe, reliable operation.

Smoke Detector Installation

Battery-only smoke detectors fail when batteries die. Our electricians install hardwired units with sealed backup batteries per current code, ensuring your family is protected around the clock.
