G Vila Electrical is a South Weymouth electrician run by Gabriel Vila, and several reviewers came to him first for lighting — picking out a chandelier and having him install it once it arrived. Angi's profile lists 11 years in business and carries a note in Spanish; Thumbtack's profile lists 2 years and shows Gabriel as background-checked. Several reviews from November 2024 describe lighting work: two homeowners, in separate reviews, said Gabriel helped them pick out and then install a chandelier for their dining room, while another said a free lighting consultation led them to order a chandelier and hire him to replace an old fixture. A fourth November 2024 review said he came out on a weekend to install a dishwasher for less than expected. In February 2025, one Thumbtack reviewer said he was immediately responsive, scheduled a next-day consult, gave a reasonable quote, and showed proof of insurance and licensing before they booked him, calling the finished work '10/10'; another reviewer that same month said Gabriel and a helper, Anthony, were thorough, prioritized doing the job right over doing it fast, and stayed responsive to follow-up questions. A May 2025 review said he arrived on time and did an excellent job. For anything beyond a quick outlet or fixture job, confirm scope, licensing, and timeline up front — the jobs described here range from a same-week repair to a full lighting consultation.
