Old knob-and-tube wiring is the job that comes to Brian K Hall Electric. A recent customer said Brian and his helper updated their new house from knob and tube to current electric code, adding outlets, lights and switches where they were needed, and called them fast, courteous and clean. Its Massachusetts electrician license, number 21834-EL-A, is active on the state registry, with Brian K Hall as the holder. On Google it holds 5 stars from 12 ratings. A recent customer who lost power at their house said Brian returned the call quickly and had the problem fixed quickly. A 2024 customer said Brian came within two days to replace a 40-year-old service panel whose main breaker was bad, putting in a new 200 amp main breaker with a new service panel and new breakers. That 2024 customer said Brian had earlier done bathroom ventilation for showers and installed new outlets for running AC. A 2024 customer said Brian removed all of their knob-and-tube wiring, rewired the entire house and upgraded the service and circuit board. In a large Victorian house, a 2024 customer said Brian and his associate removed the rest of the knob and tube over 3 1/2 days, with what the customer thought were one or two extra holes in the walls, covered by molding. That 2024 customer said he cleaned up methodically afterward. A 2023 customer who was without heat on one of the coldest days of the winter said Brian came almost immediately and fixed the problem in their wiring. That 2023 customer called his fees very fair. A 2022 customer said Brian and his team installed a ceiling fan in the dining room and an extractor fan/heater in the bathroom.

Brian is awesome! He and his helper updated our new house from knob and tube to current electric code. They also added outlets, lights and switches in places that needed them. They were fast, courteous and clean. I would recommend them to anyone!
I have used Brian Hall in the past he does awesome work and at reasonable rates. He has done bathroom ventilation for showers and does all install from switch on wall to ventilation install. Very clean and neat work. I had Brian install to new outlets in my home for running AC. Professional work and cleaned everything up. Just recently 12/26/24 I have a 40 year old service electrical panel that needed up grade because the 220 amp main breaker was bad and obsolete. Called Brian about the problem and he came within 2 days and took out old service panel and breakers. He then put in new 200 amp main breaker with new service panel and new breakers. Professionally done and neat and clean and everything works like it should. Thanks Brian you’re a life saver and I really appreciate the speedy service and reliability. Again thanks! I would highly recommend Brian’s services if you need help with anything electrical and beyond.
Brian is fast, efficient and very reasonable. He is quiet and respectful and HE SHOWS UP!! I hardly knew he and his helper were here. I highly recommend him and would definitely call him again for any electrical work. Definitely 5 Stars.
Brian’s service and professionalism is unsurpassed in our book, we had a complicated issue that he was able to navigate in a timely manner to our complete satisfaction. If you need electric services do not hesitate to call him! Thank you Brian for another job well done.
