Fitzgerald Electric

One number, three licences, and a directory that flags the whole thing. Fitzgerald Electric is a Methuen outfit whose only listed person is Thomas P. Fitzgerald, and the work on record is bread-and-butter residential electrical: a $5,000 job in Malden upgrading a house to a 200-amp service and wiring in an air-conditioning condenser and air handler, permitted in September 2025. That is the sort of job most homeowners call an electrician for, and it is recent. What surrounds it needs care. BuildZoom carries an alert banner and a score of 0, which it attributes to not having an active licence on file rather than to anything customers said — and no customer has said anything, because there are no reviews of this company anywhere. The licence records themselves do not hang together. A single number, 6352, appears three separate times: once as a Master Electrician licence marked active but explicitly not verified, alongside a note that the last check showed a July 2013 expiration; once as an Electrician licence listed inactive and once cancelled; and once as a PLUMBER licence, a different trade entirely. One number spread across three trades is a sign the directory's records are unreliable, not a picture of someone's credentials. So treat the licensing here as unresolved rather than settled either way. Before any work is scheduled, ask Thomas Fitzgerald for his current Massachusetts electrician licence number and check it yourself with the state's electrician licensing board — an electrical permit has to be pulled by a licensed electrician, and that lookup takes a minute. With no reviews to lean on, ask for a couple of recent local addresses too.
