An August 2026 customer wanted a Level 2 EV charger at home without paying for a full electrical service upgrade, and says Pat, whom the review names as Burgess Electric's owner, found a setup that avoided that expense. On installation day he arrived on time, installed the new breakers, ran the exterior wiring and mounted the charger, and the customer called the pricing fair and the process from estimate to invoice smooth. Burgess Electric's website lists a service area that straddles the state lines — Worcester, Shrewsbury, Douglas, Milford and Southbridge in Massachusetts; Woonsocket, Cumberland, Smithfield and Lincoln in Rhode Island; Thompson, Putnam and Woodstock — and a service menu covering generators, circuit breakers, EV chargers, wiring and rewiring, lighting, outlets and switches, panel upgrades and pool wiring. It advertises free estimates. Google shows 5 stars from 124 ratings, and the four written reviews all date from July to October 2026. A July customer said he came the day after the call and fixed the problem that same day. A September reviewer said he arrived on time and finished the job on schedule. An October 2026 customer said the work was explained clearly, the area was left clean and the pricing was fair. The Massachusetts registry lists electrician license 9285-EL-A1, held by Burgess Electric Inc, as active.
Excellent experience from start to finish! Burgess was professional, punctual, knowledgeable, and courteous. They clearly explained the work, completed everything efficiently, and left the area clean. The quality of service was outstanding, and the pricing was fair. I highly recommend Burgess to anyone needing reliable and professional electrical work.
Great electrician! He was prompt, arrived on time, was friendly and easy to work with, and got the job done on time. I’m very happy with his work and would definitely recommend him!
I had a fantastic experience working with Pat, the owner of Burgess Electric, to install a Level 2 EV charger at my home. From the start, Pat took the time to understand my setup and helped me find a smart solution that avoided the massive expense of a full electrical service upgrade. On installation day, he arrived right on time, was extremely polite, and worked remarkably fast. He installed the new breakers, ran the exterior wiring, and mounted the charger cleanly and securely. The final setup looks completely seamless and professional—everything was executed exactly as discussed. Pricing was fair, communication was clear, and the entire process from estimate to invoicing was smooth and efficient. I highly recommend Pat and Burgess Electric, and I’ll definitely be calling him for any future electrical work!
He came the next day after I called and was able to fix the problem that day.
