Verified record
Ars Electric is an electrical shop at 88 Mount Vernon Street in Malden. The Better Business Bureau's profile puts it at 38 years in business, started in 1988, with three employees and Tony Staffiere as owner, and grades it A+. One thing to square up before calling: on the state registry, the company's Massachusetts electrical business licence, #4682, is expired. BuildZoom lists that same number with a July 31, 2001 expiration date. For a small electrical job in Malden, this is a long-established local outfit — ask who holds the current master electrician's licence that will pull the permit for your work, and get the scope and price in writing before anything is scheduled.
