Verified record
Butler & Sons Electrical Contractor is a Billerica electrical business with a long local footprint: the BBB profile says 20 years in business, and BuildZoom shows 117 permitted projects. The business is associated with Stephen J. Butler, who the state registry lists as the holder of electrician license 17220. The available customer account is positive but small. A BBB reviewer says they hired the company several times and found it quick to reply, understanding, educated, and excellent at its work. BBB gives the company an A+ grade and lists it as an electrician, while BuildZoom lists electrical work. The main thing to settle before booking is licensing: the state registry lists license 17220 as expired, while BuildZoom displays historical active entries and also an inactive entry for the same number. Confirm the current license status and the license that will cover your project before work begins. This looks like a local electrical contractor with substantial permit history but limited independently written customer detail in the available profile. It may suit standard electrical work if the licensing question is resolved first.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Butler & Sons Electrical Contractor. 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).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100

This company is outstanding. I've hired them a few times now; they are always quick to reply, understanding of my situation, educated, and do excellent work.
