Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Donahue Electrical Contractors. 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
Excellent service, quick response. Very reasonable. Will use again

I am not sure that they did not overprice the cost of the smoke alarms that they purchased from Home Depot.
