# F.D. Jones Electric **Trade:** Electrical · **Website:** https://fdjoneselectric.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 2.4/5** (low confidence) — from 3 reviews across 6 sources. ## The honest read F.D. Jones Electric is a Mattapoisett, Massachusetts electrical contractor that says it has served the community since 1975, offering residential and commercial electrical work and Generac generator installation and service. Better Business Bureau gives it an A+ grade, and BuildZoom lists three Massachusetts electrician licence numbers on the company's profile. Written reviews are few and dated: a 2025 review described a Generac generator that was installed incorrectly and had to be redone, and a 2012 review described an unfinished smoke-detector repair. A separate online mention called the company one of the few good electricians on the South Shore. The company's site says it is on call 24 hours a day, though an older Angi profile states no emergency service is offered. **Strengths:** - Established business — in business since 1975 per BBB, A+ rated - Licensed electrician — BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts electrician licence number - Positive mention online — called one of the few good South Shore electricians **Concerns:** - Generator install issue — a 2025 review said the wrong Generac unit was installed - Unfinished repair — a 2012 review described a smoke detector left unrepaired - Emergency claim conflict — an older Angi profile says no emergency service is offered **Where sources disagree:** - The official website says the company is on call 24 hours a day, while an Angi profile FAQ states no emergency services are offered. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - F.D.
