Verified record
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from C & W Electrical Contractors LLC. 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
Typical electrical project around $820
C&W Electrical Contractors is a Wakefield electrician built around commercial and institutional work — the Better Business Bureau lists its clients as general contractors, schools, government agencies, industrial buildings, offices, telecom providers, and hospitals, and its Massachusetts electrician license is active and verified under the company's own name. There's a real gap between two sources on how long the company has been around: its own website says it was founded in 2000, but its Better Business Bureau profile puts it at 9 years in business — worth asking directly which timeline is accurate, since a two-decade-plus history and a decade-old one tell very different stories about depth of experience. The one written account here, a 2024 Google review, describes the team as responsive and adaptive through a project that changed scope over time, naming two crew members, Andy and Bob, and calling the communication open throughout. For institutional or larger commercial electrical work in the Wakefield area, the license checks out and that one review is specific and positive — it's worth confirming the company's actual founding date and whether smaller residential jobs are something they still take on, since their public materials point almost entirely toward larger commercial and government clients.
Responsive, adaptive, and open communication through a long and changing project. Really enjoyed working with Andy, Bob, & the CW team.
