Call Giroux during a Northborough-area outage and the story tends to be the same: someone's on-site within hours, not days. When a storm knocked out power near -1°F, in a February 2026 review, Justin M. and Josh W. repaired a downed weather head and riser. After an ice storm a week before Christmas in 2023 left widespread damage and most electricians unreachable, Giroux picked up immediately, arrived within the hour to assess and quote, then coordinated directly with National Grid and the wiring inspector on what turned into a 6-plus-hour job in freezing cold. In a 2025 review describing a routine no-power call, Mike Dodd arrived within 30-45 minutes, ran out for parts, and had two breakers replaced and the power back within 20 minutes of returning. Gregory D. Giroux holds an active, state-verified Massachusetts electrician license, and the company carries a BBB A+ grade. Google shows 270 ratings averaging 4.9 stars, with 182 reviews on file going back to 2021 — a track record that's stayed remarkably steady: the last six months alone added 9 reviews, none negative. What comes through across dozens of these reviews is less about the company as a brand and more about specific technicians customers ask for by name — Robert, Justin, Josh, Jaxson Claire, Saul, and Mike among them. In a January 2026 review, one customer described Robert diagnosing a false alarm caused by their own flipped switch and not charging them for it. Several customers describe using Giroux three or more times and specifically requesting the same tech again. The work spans from routine troubleshooting and outlet swaps to underground service installs, 200A panel upgrades, generator hookups, and new-construction wiring; in an April 2026 review about a home addition, one customer called the pricing not the cheapest but said the finished work justified it. The one blemish on the record is a single one-star review reading only "Totally wasted," with no detail about what happened — it's impossible to say more about it than that. This reads like a company built for both ends of the job spectrum: the middle-of-the-night outage and the bigger planned electrical project, with enough depth on staff that a customer who likes their technician can generally ask for them again.
“We’ve used Giroix in Northborough a few times. Came out within a few days of me calling each time and super friendly.”
“Giroux Electrical Contractors Inc. purchased 102 Otis St., Northborough, for $2.4 million.”
“Northborough, MA –Giroux Electrical Contractors Inc. has purchased 102 Otis Street in Northborough, MA for $2.4 million.”
Giroux did an outstanding job with my underground service installation and 200A panel upgrade. Their communication was great from the start, and they showed up right on time with a full crew ready to work. Because they had a whole team dedicated to the job, they completed it incredibly fast and kept our power downtime to an absolute minimum. The quality of their work was obvious and professional. They took the time to make sure the wiring looked just as good as it worked, and you can tell they take pride in their work. Highly recommend them if you want a reliable crew that gets the job done right.
Called and had Josh come out that day for an estimate. Accepted and Justin came out two days later and did the install. Super fast, friendly and easy. Quote was fair and work was excellent! Won’t hesitate to call them again in the future.
Giroux Electric was great starting with the first phone call. Justin came the same day, found the electrical problem, had the time to hang an outside light for us, there was a problem with the card reader, so it looked like it went through twice, I received a text message from Lynna saying there might have been a problem. Everything ended up being good. Lynna texted again just to follow up to make sure everything was good. Prices were reasonable, will definitely call Giroux Electric again!!
I've worked with a range of electricians accross the state on projects ranging from accessory lighting to airport renovations and in all of my trade experience I have yet to come accross an electrician company that is so pleasant and enjoyable to work with. I am the foreman of Reimagined Roots and Giroux Electrical Contractors worked with us to supply power to a shed and greenhouse install in Northborough. During the first meeting with Josh before we broke ground, the conversation was immediately great even on a cold and rainy morning. We set clear goals for each other and every step of the process went smoothly. Whether we were on the site together, or completing our tasks seperately, each and every step went according to plan with smooth communication and a joyful vibe. My technicians John and Drew spoke incredibly highly of Josh's; Justin and Phil. Everday on site was in high spirits, working effictively, safely, and smoothly. Between the 6 of us, the install and cooperation throughout the project was immaculate and I couldn't reccomend an electrician higher for any sub contracting and cooperative projects. Thank you Josh, Justin, and Phil. We look forward to working with you again!
Absolutely fantastic. Arrived on time, super friendly and knowledgeable and very efficient. Highly recommend.
