Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Castle Electric Inc.. 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.

Typical electrical project around $820
Castle Electric is a Norwood electrical contractor, and a 2026 Google customer replacing dated, worn-out panels said Josiah did an in-depth on-site inspection and estimate, then Brian and Marc completed the project in two days. The company says it was founded in 1997 by Jim Prescott, Sr., that it is family-owned, and that it offers repair, panel upgrades, wiring, lighting, EV charger and generator services. Its Massachusetts electrician licence, number 16191, is active on the state registry. A 2026 Google customer said Jessica checked the box behind their wall oven and found the plastic inside had completely melted. A 2026 Google customer with a hot water outage said Chris repaired an ancient breaker with a temp fix that day, and Steve and Cole came back two weeks later for a permanent fix including a bigger electrical box and a new meter. In a 2025 Google review, a customer with no power to half the house said Jimmy and Mike came out two days after the quote and did the work, leaving a new circuit breaker panel on a $7,000 job. A 2023 Google reviewer said the company replaced every wire and put in a new electrical panel in a new location within two days for their 99 year old father. A 2026 r/boston commenter said they had hired the company a few times and it mostly does a good job, but that there is one small thing each time that irks them. A 2026 Google customer objected to being charged $1,200 for 2 outlets. In a 2024 Google review, an EV charger customer said the technician left without activating the charger and that it was configured for a max of 40 amps when 48 had been requested.
“* Castle Electric. We've hired them a few times as they mostly do a good job, but they always end up doing *one* (small) thing that irks us.”
“I ended up going with Castle Electric out of Norwood for my last need (ceiling fan installation x 3). They were able to come out fairly quickly and did a good job.”
“Castle electric. Easy to get ahold of. Showed up when they said they would. Worked fast and did what they said they would do at the price they quoted.”
We had an electrical power issue with a recently installed dishwasher. Jessica came in and quickly diagnosed the problem ( under the sink) and was able to correct the issues and get everything up and running. She did a great job.
Our experience with Castle Electric was overwhelmingly positive. Matt and his helper Rob were punctual, efficient, polite — a pleasure to deal with them
Castle Electric should be your only choice! Reasonable pricing,very professional.Completed the job on time as quoted.With Chris T. In the lead and Jack as the number two man everything was completed no issues!!!!
I couldn’t be happier working with Chris and the team at Castle. The on site estimate was scheduled quickly and very well done . The communication with Castle was great. Chris and Jack came as scheduled and completed the work with skill and explained everything during the job…polite and professional. I highly recommend Castle Electric .
Extremely impressed, we had installer Chris on site he was prompt, professional , very knowledgeable and did outstanding work. We will use Castle again. They are a little on the higher end pricing but you get what you pay for. Well worth it.. thank you castle .
