ILIEV ELECTRIC

Iliev Electric runs out of Newton, and for a shop this size the numbers land in an unusual place: 5.0 stars on Google from 14 ratings, matched by another 5.0 from 17 ratings on Angi. Iliya Iliev has been at it nine years, per the business's Angi profile, taking on residential electrical calls and, notably, EV charger installs — a category where a Newton installer-comparison site names Iliev Electric among the top-rated options in town. The description repeats across independent sources: responsive to calls, thorough on the job, priced fairly. That pattern holds up outside the review world too — Boston's building department shows 11 electrical permits filed since 2023, with 88% of the ones old enough to grade closed out, more than 37 points above the citywide median. Two of those permits are still open, worth checking on if timing for a project matters. And its Angi listing doesn't carry an 'Approved Pro' or Super Service Award badge, unlike some competitors on the same page — not a mark against the work itself, just a gap in the accreditation column. For a residential electrical job or an EV charger install in the Newton area, the reviews and the permit history point the same direction.
