Verified record
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Harold C Curtis Electric. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
Typical electrical project around $820
Harold C. Curtis Electric works out of West Newton, and the clearest measure of how much routine work he's done is the permit trail: 72 recorded electrical projects on file with BuildZoom. His Massachusetts electrician license is active, verified directly against the state registry under his own name. There isn't much else to go on. Google shows 3.3 stars from three ratings, and the single written review with any detail — posted in 2023 — is a one-star complaint about getting stuck behind his van and calling him 'a bad driver,' which says nothing about the quality of his electrical work. BuildZoom, which tracks his permit history closely, shows no customer reviews of its own. There isn't enough here to describe what a typical job with him looks like, or how customers who've actually hired him for electrical work feel about it — the permit volume and the active license are the two solid facts to go on. Worth confirming the license and getting a few local references directly before booking, since the trail online doesn't yet tell much of a story beyond steady permit activity.
Got stuck behind his van. Bad driver 👎
