Huy Tran Electrician LLC is a one-person-and-crew electrical outfit based in Quincy, working mostly on residential wiring, lighting, and camera installs around the South Shore and Boston. Google shows 4.7★ from 14 ratings, but the reviews behind that number tell a more mixed story than the average alone suggests. Most of what's written is enthusiastic and specific: customers describe him wiring and installing light fixtures at a new salon, putting up security cameras and new lighting throughout a house, and returning for repeat jobs across both a home and rental units. One reviewer, in the middle of a heat-wave power outage, says Huy gave a same-day quote and had the problem fully fixed by the next morning after struggling to find an electrician who wasn't trying to upsell them. A May 2025 review tells a very different story: after the reviewer declined an unexpected $3,500 add-on for hood-vent ductwork, they say Huy pushed the project back two months, then canceled the building permit outright when they raised the idea of finding a replacement. It's the sharpest complaint among the reviews, and worth asking about directly before signing anything — get a firm end date and full scope in the contract up front. A Boston permit-tracking site separately shows Huy has closed 79% of his rated permits since 2023, above the city median, though 10 remain open. For straightforward wiring, lighting, and camera work, the reviews mostly describe fast, competent service — but given the one detailed account of a stalled project and a canceled permit, it's worth pinning down cost and timeline commitments before work begins.
