Deveau Electric is an Amesbury, MA electrician business, and the company says it has been in business for 40 years. In a 2023 review, a customer said their family has used Jim Deveau for over 20 years for electrical work including rewiring an 1840-built antique home, rewiring an antique lamp post, new construction on home additions, and installing light and fan fixtures. Another 2023 review said Jim, the owner, explained all the options for a generator installation and helped the customer make an informed decision, with workers Nick and Steve handling the job quickly. Its Massachusetts electrician license is active on the state registry.
My wife and I have had the good fortune to use Jim Deveau for over 20 years for virtually every Electrical need in our Homes including: re-wiring of our 1840-Built Antique, re-wiring an Antique Lamp post, New construction of Home additions, Installing Light and Fan fixtures, replacing and/or upgrading of exiting Switches, Panels, outlets, appliances etc. Jim and his employees have always demonstrated consideration for our needs and provided only the most professional service including always showing up at the appointed days and times as well as completing work to the end once engaged. We can recommend him without Reservation.
Jim the owner was great, explained everything I needed to know. Showed me all my options & helped me make an informed decision. His workers Nick & Steve handled the job quickly. Generator is ready to go for any future storms. Very happy to have heat/lights/water for the next power outage.
