Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Brissette Electric Inc.. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).

Brissette Electric is a Martha's Vineyard electrical contractor on Lagoon Pond Road in Vineyard Haven, run by Jarret Brissette, whom The MV Times pictured with his crew. The company's site says it handles residential and commercial work, including private utilities, solar installation, service upgrades, emergency generators and lighting design. Martha's Vineyard Magazine has named it Best Electrical Contractor and called it one of the trusted names on the Island for keeping lights on, solar panels running and generators humming. Its BBB grade is A+, and BBB lists it as open since 2017. The Google picture is thinner and mixed: 6 ratings averaging 3 stars. The one written Google review, from September 2024, is glowing. That customer said Brissette squeezed in a small job left over from another company's installation even as the season got busy, that the technician, Leo, was a knowledgeable and prompt troubleshooter who did not cut corners, and that the cost was very reasonable. Its Massachusetts electrician licence, #21641, is active on the state registry, held by Jarret F. Brissette.
“Bettencourt and Brissette are trusted names when it’s time to call an electrician – these established companies keep lights on, solar panels running, and generators humming across the Island.”

Very happy with Brissette. They squeezed in a small but important (to us!) job that should have been the responsibility of the original installer (from a different company), even though the season was getting busy. The tech (Leo) was competent, knowledgeable, informative, prompt, pleasant, a great trouble-shooter, did not cut corners-- everything we could ask for. The end result was just what we wanted/needed-- and the cost was very reasonable (no sticker shock!). From my experience, I'd say Brissette combines a small business personal touch with efficiency and professional know-how. They will be my first choice for any future electrical needs.
