Verified record
Knob-and-tube wiring ran through two of the three levels of a multi-family house in downtown Gloucester when its buyer called Hurd Electric. In a September 2023 HomeAdvisor review, that customer said Kyle and his apprentice rewired both units and removed all of the knob and tube, working clean and prompt. Hurd Electric, also known as T.A. Hurd, says in its BBB description that it was established in Massachusetts in 1986, that Terrance A. Hurd is the owner, and that it does electrical construction, marine wiring and other commercial and residential electrical work. The Massachusetts electrician licence 57294-EL-B is active, with KYLE HURD as the holder of record. The company's website says it offers free estimates and is insured. All four of its HomeAdvisor ratings are five stars, and the written reviews all date from September 2023. One customer had circuit board rewiring, a new smart thermostat and a generator installed, and said the projects went according to plan. Another had an EV charging station put in along with an upgrade to the home's electrical capacity, and described the crew as courteous and the work as clean. A third said Kyle wired their speakers, installed a new ceiling fan and light, and added an outlet in the same room.
The projects were accomplished according to plan. Circuit board rewiring, new smart thermostat and generator install. I certainly recommend them for Your next project.
Hurd installed an EV Charging station in our home, and upgraded our electrical capacity for it as well, and their work was professional and clean. The people who came to do the work were courteous and knowledgeable, and I can recommend Hurd Electric to anyone without reservation.
It was a pleasure to have Kyle as our electrician. He was knowledgeable, quick and the work was really well done. He wired our speakers, installed a new ceiling fan and light. As well as installed a new outlet in the same room. I would highly recommend him and we will be contacting him again next time we need electrical work.
I bought a multi family house in downtown Gloucester. There was knob and tube throughout 2 out of the 3 levels. Kyle and his apprentice came in and rewired both units, eliminating all of the knob and tube. They were clean, prompt, and did great work.

Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
