Driscoll Electric Co., Inc.

Driscoll Electric is a Cape Cod and Greater Boston electrical contractor that says it has been in business since 1970, now run by its second generation — the company describes president Brendan Driscoll as having purchased it from his father in 1995 and calls itself family-owned. BBB independently confirms the same 1/1/1970 start date and Brendan Driscoll as president, which lines up with the company's own account. Its Massachusetts electrical business license (A1-2093) is registry-verified active. The company also lists licenses in New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island and Vermont, though those are self-reported on its own site rather than independently verified here — a multi-state footprint that fits the Boston-and-Cape service area it claims. Its BBB profile isn't marked Accredited, but it still carries a BBB letter grade of A+, and BBB lists Electrician as its category. There isn't much of a public review trail to go on yet. Google shows 4.3 stars from 8 ratings, but the only review text visible is a single one-star comment from August 2026 saying a driver "drives like shit" — a complaint about someone's driving, not about wiring or workmanship, and it's the lone comment on record here. Before booking, it's worth asking for recent job references directly, since there isn't a body of detailed customer accounts to lean on yet — the company's claims about OSHA-certified electricians and CPR/First Aid training speak to its safety practices but aren't corroborated by outside reviews in what's visible. For a homeowner on the Cape or around Boston who wants a long-tenured, state-licensed electrical outfit, the verified license and decades of claimed history are the strongest points here; just confirm current availability and get things in writing, since the review record itself is too thin to vouch for day-to-day service quality.
