Burke Electric Inc

Burke Electric is a Hanover electrical contractor built around Paul Burke's own name — reviewers from 2022 through 2025 keep circling back to how quickly he calls back and how much he explains along the way. A 2025 review describes him guiding a family through wiring an entire new home, working through the many decisions that come with new construction so that, in the reviewer's words, everything ended up "where it should be and how it should be." Another 2025 review credits him with the electrical work on a kitchen and bathroom renovation, showing up when promised and offering suggestions on top of the wiring itself. Smaller jobs get the same attention: a 2024 review describes a shorted dryer outlet fixed within two days and a fair price on a failed pool light, and a 2022 review describes a same-day generator hookup handled efficiently. Not every account is clean. A September 2024 review describes newly installed smoke detectors that kept triggering overnight, a hole left in the ceiling, and a $200 bill for a callback the homeowner felt shouldn't have been charged — a real complaint worth asking about if the job involves detector or alarm work specifically. His Massachusetts electrician license, #16711, is active on the state registry, and building-permit records under his own name show well over a hundred electrical permits pulled across the South Shore, with a cluster right in Hanover — new services, generator installs, solar hookups, panel upgrades. The company's own site also carries a handful of short thank-you notes from customers praising how fast and responsive he's been. For a rewire, a renovation's electrical work, or a generator or panel upgrade, Burke Electric has a multi-year record of specific, credible praise behind it; for detector or alarm-related work, it's worth confirming upfront how a callback would be handled if something needs a second visit.
