Verified record
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from DiFoggio 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

DiFoggio Electric has been doing residential and commercial wiring out of Waltham since the early 1970s, the kind of vintage that shows in an A+, complaint-free profile with the Better Business Bureau. Self-reported as founded by Larry DiFoggio in 1973 (its BBB profile instead dates the start to 1972), the company is still owner-run — DiFoggio and his wife Andrea handle the business side while the crew works generator installs, lighting control systems, landscape lighting, power quality testing and surge suppression for houses and businesses across Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont. Its Massachusetts electrician license is active, registered to Lawrence C. DiFoggio, and the company's own site cites the same number. BuildZoom's database credits the firm with 249 recorded electrical and other projects, a body of permitted work that backs up the decades-long claim. Written reviews are scarce, but the two on file tell different stories. A late-2024 Google review called the crew's communication and follow-through solid and said they left the house cleaner than they found it. A 2023 review told the opposite tale — three days and two messages with a phone number and address, and no callback. With so little written history to go on, either account could be the outlier, so it's worth asking how quickly a call gets returned before booking anything urgent. DiFoggio looks like a fit for a homeowner or business wanting an established, licensed shop for standard electrical work — generator hookups, lighting, surge protection — who confirms response times up front given the mixed record on follow-through.
The DiFoggio Electric team is top notch! great communication and follow through. The team shows up and executes the work in a timely manner and left our home cleaner then when they showed up!
I called three days ago with and left a message giving my phone number twice and my address. So far nothing but crickets.
