Verified record
Carlo Bonito is a Saugus-based electrician who works largely on panel upgrades and full-home rewiring. Angi and HomeAdvisor both show him at 5.0 stars from 22 ratings, and BuildZoom credits him with an electrical license plus three others on file with the Massachusetts board. The written record is dated — the newest of the four detailed reviews on file dates back to 2019 — but it holds real specifics. In a 2019 review, a customer described a full-home rewire: a panel upgrade to 200 amps, every light and outlet in a century-old house replaced, and a wireless-remote workaround in place of tearing open a wall. An earlier, 2018 review praised him for showing up when he said he would, explaining the work clearly, and — on one call — telling the homeowner the actual problem was likely outside on a utility pole rather than pushing unnecessary work. A 2025 Reddit comment recommending him for small jobs called him a "super good guy." There's nothing negative on record. Given how dated the detailed reviews are, it's worth asking about recent work when you call — the reputation here rests on a handful of specific, well-regarded jobs rather than a large recent volume.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Carlo Bonito. 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
“Carlo Bonito…in Everett, I think? Super good guy. DM me and I can find his number for you.”
The best electrician I ever hired.
Carlo and his team upgraded our entire home. Here is some examples: 1. panel to 209 amps 2. replaced every light in our 100 year old home 3. replaced every outlet (with tamper resistant) and light switchs 4. added and replaced under cabinet lighting So much more, there wasn't one area of the house that wasn't added, replaced or upgraded. Carlo came up with innovative and cost saving ideas for us. For example, adding a wireless remote device for our livingroom instead of opening up our walls to add a switch. Carlo is professional, respectful, pleasant, efficient, innovative and easy to work with and to talk to. Carlo has a team of electricians that are respectful, professional, pleasant and efficient. They cleaned up after every area they finished. i highly recommend Carlo!
I can't say enough good things about Carlo and his team. They communicated with me every step of the way, showed up on time, did the work extremely well, cleaned up everything, and wanted to be sure we were happy with their work. Exceptional electrician. Highly recommended.
I would highly recommend Carlo Bonito, Master Electrician. Carlo was prompt, courteous, and thorough in his explanation in what work may need to be performed at our home. Carlo responded quickly, both via email and phone, regarding the service call, and he appeared at our door at the time he specified. As it turned out, we did not need the particular service that he he originally thought, because Carlo suspected the problem may be outside on a utility pole. While we did not need Carlo at this time, we would certainly contact him for any electrical needs in the future.
