David R. Northup Electrical Contractors is a family-owned electrical, plumbing, and HVAC contractor in Agawam, Massachusetts that says it has served Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut since 1967; its Better Business Bureau profile lists the same 1967 start date. Its Massachusetts electrician license, #12425, is registry-verified active, with David R. Scudder listed as the qualifying electrician, and the company also holds an active Massachusetts Women Business Enterprise certification, expiring 2027-02-28. On Google, it holds 3.4 stars from 7 ratings. In an August 2023 review, a customer described calling before the shop opened during an overnight electrical emergency and getting quick help from a supervisor and a technician. A claimed Procore Construction Network profile shows the company working electrical, HVAC and plumbing jobs across Connecticut and Massachusetts, with two projects logged since it joined in November 2023. Two things are worth asking about: in 2007, a customer's attorney filed a civil complaint against the company in Berkshire Superior Court, and a 2023 workplace-safety violation carried a $6,407 penalty. The company's Connecticut electrical license and its Massachusetts and Connecticut plumbing license numbers, listed on its own site, haven't been checked against a state registry. It's a longstanding option for electrical, HVAC or plumbing work in the Agawam area — confirm current licensing in the state where the job will happen and ask about the 2023 safety citation before booking.

I had a electrical emergency overnight. And called Northrup before they even opened. I got johnny the superrvisor to help me out right away and they sent out an excellent tech dan. They were all extremely professional realized how bad I needed the electricity to be working considering I had no oven and no hot water and a child at home. And they were able to help me out within hours. Highly recommend and great prices. Great communication as well.
