## The honest read

J. Eduardo Avalos is a one-man electrical shop working out of Randolph, MA, the kind of call homeowners make for a stuck circuit, a new EV charger, or an outlet that needs adding before an inspection. Angi's own profile lists it as locally owned and operated with 17 years of experience and says "Se habla español," with emergency service and free estimates offered.

The reviews on Angi run from 2019 through mid-2024 — 24 of them, averaging 4.7 stars — and what keeps coming up is speed and follow-through: several homeowners describe Eduardo showing up the same day they called and walking them through the work afterward. Jobs mentioned include recessed lighting added through a tight ceiling cavity, panel and electrical service upgrades, and an EV charger install; in a 2019 review, one customer said a good first job earned him "all my electrical projects" going forward. A handful of 2020 reviews credit the work to someone named "Juan" rather than Eduardo, suggesting a second person sometimes worked under the same listing.

Massachusetts permit records collected by BuildZoom back that up with something Angi's reviews can't show — 27 permitted electrical jobs since 2020 across Randolph and nearby South Shore towns like Brockton, Braintree, and Hanson, mostly wiring, panel and service upgrades. BuildZoom's own profile lists the business as not requiring a Massachusetts electrician's license — that's the directory's own claim, not a state check, and worth confirming directly.

Not every account is glowing: a 2024 review describes being quoted one price and billed for more after the crew skipped a light fixture at the top of a stairway, and one 2020 rating came in at 0.5 stars with no comment attached. Both are a few years old now, but worth asking about — specifically how any extra work gets communicated and priced mid-job.

For a straightforward residential electrical job — lighting, panel work, an EV charger — this is a responsive, well-reviewed call; just get the license status and any change orders confirmed in writing before the crew starts.

**Strengths:**
- Same-day response — reviewers repeatedly cite quick arrivals and callbacks
- EV and panel work — Tesla charger and panel upgrades among cited jobs
- Permit-backed volume — 27 permitted electrical jobs since 2020 per BuildZoom

**Concerns:**
- 2024 billing dispute — quoted price rose after a light fixture was skipped
- One unexplained low score — a 2020 review rated 0.5 stars with no comment
- License status unconfirmed — BuildZoom lists no license required for this trade

**Where sources disagree:**
- A few 2020 reviews describe the work of someone named "Juan" rather than Eduardo, suggesting a second person sometimes worked under the same Angi listing.
