Verified record
A homeowner who cut a fire alarm wire while working on their own ceiling wrote in a December 2025 Google review that Dana Alarm & Electric sent someone the same day to fix it, and called the company "incredibly communicative." The Gloucester company's name says what it does: alarms and electrical work. Its BBB profile lists it as started and incorporated in 1997, with nine employees and Dana Craaybeek as owner; BBB has not issued it a rating. Its Massachusetts electrician licence, #1968-EL-A1, is active, with the company itself as holder of record, and it is listed as a member of the Gloucester Chamber of Commerce. The written reviews are few. Besides the fire-alarm repair, a July 2022 reviewer praised the staff's explanation of a new alarm system. Google shows 4.8 stars from 5 ratings.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Dana Alarm & 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.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
Typical electrical project around $820
They saved me big time. They were able to send someone same day to fix a fire alarm wire I accidentally cut while trying to do some work on my ceiling. Incredibly communicative as well.
Excellent service and explanation of our new alarm system. Professional, knowledgeable staff, I highly recommend!
