Cognati Electric Inc.

Cognati Electric, run by Mauro out of Danvers, is the kind of shop homeowners describe going back to for years — the review record spans 2023 through mid-2026 across Google and Angi, and a striking number of reviewers mention using the company more than once or referring friends and family. The work ranges from a single outlet or light fixture to full panel upgrades, generator installs, and EV chargers. Communication is the thing reviewers single out most: recent reviews describe Mauro explaining the issue and the options before starting and walking through pricing with no pressure, and in a 2025 review one customer described a follow-up call after the job to confirm everything still worked. The scope of jobs described runs wide: in 2023 reviews, customers describe a $7,500 project handled punctually and thoroughly, a 100-amp service update plus ceiling lights, a chandelier, outlets and HVAC wiring for a kitchen remodel, generator installs, and panel rewiring across two rental properties; a 2024 review describes an EV charger going in alongside recessed and undercabinet lighting. A recent review, from July 2026, describes a fast fix that got power back to a workshop. The one substantive complaint in the record, from a February 2025 review, describes a replaced thermostat that began malfunctioning within days and stayed that way through the winter despite repeated calls and texts that went unanswered for months — worth asking about their process for a callback if something needs a second look. Separately, a one-star review from May 2026 complains about aggressive driving by 'one of your drivers' on Storrow Drive; it never mentions Cognati, Mauro, or any electrical work, and reads as unrelated to the company's actual trade work. On Google the company holds a 4.8★ average from 46 ratings, and its Angi rating is a perfect 5.0★ from 15. Given how consistently reviewers across both platforms describe clear communication and work ranging from small repairs to full panel and generator installs, Cognati looks like a solid call for anything from a quick fix to a bigger electrical project — just confirm follow-up expectations if something needs revisiting after the job is done.
