Last 6 months: 3 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read A 200-amp service upgrade by First Light Electrical drew a compliment from Eversource: a recent customer says Eversource, there to switch the meter, told them it was one of the cleanest installations they had seen in a while. The same customer says Matt also helped with a mini split installation. The company describes itself on its website as handling residential and commercial electrical work, and its BBB page shows an A+ grade and accreditation. A 2025 customer said Matt had done recessed lighting in a tricky attic and heated floors. A 2024 customer said Matt replaced a breaker panel. A 2024 customer said Matt cleaned up loose wires, added a plug where there was none, added circuits so kitchen appliances and an air conditioner would not trip, and moved a light fixture and ran new wiring for it. A 2024 customer said Matt installed a car battery charger in the garage and replaced outside GFCI outlets, then on a second visit added an outdoor outlet with a weatherproof cover for a motorized awning and a dimmer switch in the dining room. That 2024 customer also said Matt wore covers on his work boots inside and cleaned the work area when done. A 2024 customer said Matt installed a ceiling light in a dining room that previously had no electricity. A 2023 customer said Matt completed the electrical work when they upgraded and remodeled their kitchen, including a plug with a cell phone charger built in. A 2023 customer said Matt corrected the issues an inspector found during a pre-purchase home inspection. A 2023 customer said the company came out on a moment's notice and fixed a breaker for their AC on a hot day. **Strengths:** - A 200-amp upgrade — Eversource praised the installation when switching the meter - Breaker panel replacement — a 2024 customer said Matt replaced the panel - Boot covers indoors — a 2024 customer said Matt cleaned the work area too - A quick breaker fix — a 2023 customer's AC breaker was fixed on short notice ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Eversource complimented a 200-amp service upgrade as one of the cleanest installations it had seen in a while _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2pCTWEyNVhSVmhrUm5Oa1pXNXBkRkJTWlRVMVZWRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x44c94fb76a870667!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOjBMa25XRVhkRnNkZW5pdFBSZTU1VVE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ I can't tell you how pleased we are with Matt's professionalism and a job well done!
