When something goes wrong with the electricity in your home or building, the first thing you want is a straight answer about what is happening and what it will take to fix it. A breaker that keeps tripping, an outlet that stopped working, lights that flicker when the refrigerator kicks on - these are not mysteries that have to stay unsolved. We handle electrical repairs, panel upgrades, new circuits, lighting, EV charger installations, and generator hookups for homes and properties across Randolph, and we are available every day from 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
Randolph is a city with a real mix of property types and ages, and the electrical work reflects that. Homeowners dealing with aging wiring call us, and so do property managers trying to bring a rental unit up to current standards before a new tenant moves in. Whatever brought you here, the process is the same: call, talk through what you are seeing, get a price, and get the visit scheduled. We take that call and handle the work. Know the price. Know the scope. Know what happens next.
Older homes in this part of Norfolk County were built at a time when electrical systems were sized for far fewer devices than a modern household runs. Knob-and-tube wiring, which uses separate insulated conductors run through ceramic knobs and tubes, turns up in houses that have not been rewired. It was not designed for grounded circuits, and it lacks the third wire that modern outlets and appliances require. When it is active and load-bearing, it is worth replacing.
Aluminum branch wiring is a separate issue that shows up in homes built during a specific window in the mid-twentieth century. The concern is not the wire itself running through the walls but the connection points where aluminum meets devices, outlets, and fixtures. Those connections can loosen and oxidize over time in ways that copper connections do not. Remediation addresses the connection points specifically, which is a different scope from a full rewire.
Not every older home needs a complete rewire. A proper assessment looks at what is in place, where it is active, and what the load on it actually is. Sections of wiring that have already been updated, circuits that are not load-bearing, and runs that are accessible and in good condition may be left alone. What matters is that the wiring carrying the current load is grounded, correctly sized, and connected in a way that holds up over time. We walk through what the assessment finds before any work is recommended.
The price for electrical work is shaped by what the fault actually turns out to be, what has to be opened up to reach it, and whether the existing circuit or panel can carry the change. A simple outlet replacement and a circuit that needs to be traced back through a finished wall are different jobs, and the quote reflects that. Load calculations factor in when a new circuit is being added or when a panel upgrade is part of the conversation, because the size of the upgrade depends on what the panel is already carrying and what is being added to it.
When you call, we talk through what you are seeing and ask the questions needed to scope the job. The price is confirmed before the visit is scheduled, so you are not waiting until someone shows up to find out what the work costs. If the job requires a site visit to scope it accurately, we say so on the call. No-pressure estimates, priced up front, and a straight answer when you ask what the work covers.
Electrical work that involves the service entrance, a new panel, or significant new circuit runs typically requires a permit. Work that is limited to replacing a device on an existing circuit often does not, though that varies by jurisdiction and by the scope of what is being done. The rules are not uniform across every city and county in this region, which is why we confirm what applies to the specific job and the specific address before the work starts.
When a permit is required, we handle the filing as part of the project. An inspection follows the work, and the timing of that inspection affects when the job is considered complete. We build that into the schedule so it does not catch anyone off guard. The short version: if a permit is needed, we take care of it, and we tell you that on the call before anything is committed to.
Electrical work does not always happen at a convenient time, and properties that are occupied or operating have their own constraints. A tenant who cannot be without power for a full day, a small business that has to stay open, a rental unit that needs to turn over on a fixed timeline - these are the situations we schedule around regularly. We confirm what access is needed and what circuits will be affected before the visit.
For jobs that are genuinely urgent, we take short-notice calls. A sparking outlet, a section of the house that has gone dark, a panel that is behaving in a way that does not feel right - those are not situations to put off until a more convenient day. Call during our hours, 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM, and we will work out what the schedule allows.
The scope and the price are settled before anyone comes out. On the day of the visit, the work area is assessed, the fault or the job is confirmed against what was discussed on the call, and the work proceeds from there. We test every circuit. We label every breaker. We leave it safe. The work area is left as it was found, which matters when the job is inside a finished room or an occupied unit.
This is a local operation, and every customer matters. The person who answers the call knows the trade and can scope the job on the phone. One call is enough to get the visit booked.
A detached garage, a finished basement workshop, or an outbuilding that needs its own circuits is a common request. Running a subpanel from the main panel gives those spaces their own breaker capacity without pulling more load through circuits that were not sized for it. We handle the load calculation, the feeder run, and the subpanel installation, and we confirm the main panel has the capacity before the work starts.
Recessed LED installation is one of the more frequent lighting requests we handle, whether it is a kitchen that needs better coverage, a living room being updated, or a finished basement being wired for the first time. We also handle fixture replacement, under-cabinet lighting, and outdoor lighting circuits. Where a new circuit is needed to support the layout, we run it as part of the same visit.
A safety inspection covers the panel, the branch circuits, the grounding and bonding, and the devices throughout the home. It is the right call before buying a property, after inheriting one that has not been updated in some time, or when something feels off and you want a clear picture of what the wiring actually looks like. The inspection produces a report of what is in place and what needs attention, with no obligation to schedule anything beyond it.
A panel that is undersized for the current load, a fuse box that needs to be converted to a breaker panel, or individual breakers that are failing are all handled under this category. Panel replacement involves pulling the old equipment, installing a new panel sized to the service entrance and the load, and making sure every circuit is correctly labeled and protected. Where a breaker is the issue rather than the panel itself, that is a simpler job that does not require replacing the whole box.
Low-voltage work covers structured wiring for data and network runs, doorbell and intercom wiring, and rough-in for smart home devices that need a dedicated circuit or a wired connection. This category of work often comes up during a renovation when walls are already open, which is the right time to run the wiring rather than after the drywall is back up.
A whole-home surge protector installed at the main panel intercepts voltage spikes before they reach the branch circuits. It covers the entire system, including appliances, electronics, and any dedicated circuits for heating or cooling equipment. It pairs naturally with generator hookup work, because the surge that follows a utility restoration after a regional outage is one of the more common causes of appliance damage in this part of New England. What the work involves is covered on our page listing every electrical service.
Randolph sits in Norfolk County, and we take calls from across the surrounding communities as well. Braintree, Avon, Canton, Holbrook, and Milton are all areas we work in regularly. If you are in one of these communities and need electrical work scoped, call and we will confirm coverage when you book.
Yes. We take calls from Braintree, Avon, Canton, Holbrook, Milton, and the surrounding area in Norfolk County. Coverage for a specific address is confirmed when you call, but these communities are part of the area we work in regularly.
Call (508) 299-5163 and we will confirm your address is within range before anything is scheduled.
Yes. Many older properties have wiring that is partly in good condition and partly not. We assess what is in place and identify which sections need attention rather than treating the whole house as a single job. Targeted repairs, GFCI upgrades, and circuit additions can often be done without touching the parts of the system that are still serviceable.
A burning smell near an outlet, switch, or panel is a situation that calls for immediate action rather than a wait-and-see approach. Turn off the circuit at the breaker if you can identify it safely, and do not use the outlet or device until the cause has been found.
Call (508) 299-5163 during our hours, 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM, and we will assess what you are describing and work out how quickly we can get someone out to take a look.
If the job takes longer than the planned window, we confirm with you before extending the shutdown. We do not leave work unfinished in a way that leaves circuits open or unsafe. If the job cannot be completed in the available time, we make the site safe and schedule the remaining work.
Older housing stock in this part of the region generates a consistent set of calls: knob-and-tube wiring that needs to be assessed or replaced, panels that were undersized for what the home now draws, and missing GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms. EV charger circuit installations have become increasingly common as well, since Massachusetts has one of the higher rates of EV adoption in the country.
Call (508) 299-5163 and we will talk through what is going on at your property specifically.
Electrical problems rarely sort themselves out, and the longer a wiring issue goes unaddressed, the more likely it is to affect something else in the system. The next step is a phone call.
Call (508) 299-5163 any day from 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM, describe what you are seeing, and we will walk through the scope, confirm the price, and get the visit scheduled.
That is all it takes to get the job moving. We'll get the job wired and finished.

Below is a plain-language look at the electrical work we handle across Randolph and the surrounding towns. Each row covers what the service includes, who it fits best, and one practical detail worth knowing before you call. If a job does not fit neatly into a single row, call and we will talk through what it actually involves.
| Service Type | What It Covers | Best For | Things to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basement & Sump-Pump Circuits |
| Finished or unfinished basements that need dedicated circuits for safety and utility equipment | A sump pump should be on its own dedicated circuit so a tripped breaker elsewhere does not take it offline. |
| Electrical Panel Upgrades |
| Homes adding circuits, major appliances, or EV chargers to an older or undersized panel | Many Norfolk County homes still carry 60-amp or 100-amp service, which falls short of what a modern household draws. |
| Wiring & Circuit Installation |
| Additions, detached garages, finished basements, and any space that needs new circuits run from scratch | Rough-in wiring for an addition or garage typically requires a permit, which we identify and handle when it applies. |
Call (508) 299-5163 between 8:30 AM and 10:00 PM any day of the week and we will talk through what the job involves, give you a price, and get it on the schedule.
