A short arrival window, kept: that is what one September 2026 customer singled out about Dava Electric, a Braintree, Massachusetts residential and commercial electrical contractor serving Greater Boston. The company says it has been in business 6 years, and it holds 5★ from 3 ratings on Google and 5.0★ from 4 ratings on Thumbtack. The reviews, all naming David, are recent. In that September 2026 Google review, the customer said David showed up right when he said he would, explained what was wrong, and said so when something did not need fixing. Another September 2026 customer said he walked through options and ideas for lighting and electrical work in an indoor and outdoor space. A Thumbtack customer in September 2026 said he was punctual and told them where he would be working in the house, and a December 2022 reviewer called the work clean and skilled. Thumbtack lists lighting, wiring, switch and outlet work, fan installation and breaker panel repair, along with a Massachusetts journeyman electrician licence.
David did a great job! He came in, checked out the issues and in a blink he was done and it was clear the quality of work was good. He was also very communicative about what time he’d be coming by, which I really appreciated. It can be hard when professionals give you such a wide time range for when they will be at your home, as you might be working or taking care of family, etc. David gave me a very short time window and he showed up right when he said he would which was so incredibly helpful! He also explained what was wrong in places and when something didn’t need to be fixed, he also communicated that, which made me feel I could trust him.
David came in and communicated options for our project , walking through ideas and some things to think about. This was a big value add as he made the project results that much better. He was very communicative along the way , and has a high attention to detail. He takes pride in his work and it shows through. Our lightning and electrical for an indoor and outdoor space came out great ! Will def call David again.
Prompt service great price. Dave was responsive, and got the job done quickly. Will definitely keep his number handy.
David did a great job! He was also very communicative and super punctual. He was also very respectful of our home, communicating where he would be and what he would be fixing. I would 100% hire him again.
Great experience and easy to work with. 😀👍

Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
