Francisco Sousa is a Waltham electrician with customers who keep him. In a March 2026 Thumbtack review, a client said he has been their electrician since 2000 and helped renovate three of their houses, including interior and exterior lighting. Angi and HomeAdvisor each show 4.9 stars from 21 ratings, and BuildZoom shows 88 permitted electrical projects. Recent Angi reviewers describe the same person. In October 2025, one customer said he explained why the project was not as simple as they imagined, did the work, and made sure the doors were locked when he left; another that month described regular status updates on when he was coming and how long he would stay. A March 2026 reviewer called him quick to respond and punctual. The older reviews are full of specific jobs. In 2021 reviews, customers described a Tesla home charger at a condo with difficult logistics, a same-day visit for repairs before a new electric range, and a change to 200 amp service with two circuit boxes rewired in a two-family. A 2019 reviewer with heavy concrete walls had a breaker box added and wires run up two floors for new outlets. Two 2017 Angi reviews raised problems: one customer had a missed appointment after taking time off work and advised firming up appointments, and another found the price a bit higher than others. The Massachusetts electrician licence 13994-EL-B is active on the state registry, held by Francisco N Sousa.
Francisco has been our electrician since 2000. He has helped renovate three of our houses over the years with top quality work at reasonable prices - both internal and external lighting. He is a pleasure to work with and cares about his work and the client's satisfaction. His responsiveness is beyond anyone we have worked with over the years. I cannot recommend him enough!
I feel lucky to have found Francisco. He was a pleasure to deal with. He was quick to respond, punctual and had a very positive attitude. He's now my go to for all my electrical needs. Very highly recommended.
I would recommend Francisco Sousa to anyone who needs an electrician. He was very responsive and communicated well why our project was not quite as simple as we imagined. He then did the work and, when we could be there for completion, he was very diligent in ensuring all the doors were locked when he left. The work itself was top notch. We have a number of other needs for electrical work which we have been putting off. Francisco has become our trusted, go to electrician for all such work moving forward.
Francisco is an absolute professional! He’s very knowledgeable and very safety-minded. He always communicates with status updates so I know when he is coming, how long he will be here, and when he will be finished. If you are looking for a great electrician Francisco is your guy!
Mr Sousa was fantastic! I will hire him as my electrician from now on. He responded quickly, gave me an EXCELLENT PRICE (seriously, less than half of one his competitors) and did a superb job. I’d give 10 stars if I could.
