J.Olivar Electric is an Everett electrician run by owner Jason Olivar — known on Reddit as 'Jay' — who takes on both large projects and smaller jobs. In an April 2025 r/malden thread, a homeowner recommended him directly for a small electrical job, noting he's handled big and small work for them before. BuildZoom lists the company under Electrical Work, with a proprietary contractor score of 100 and references to a Construction Supervisor license plus several others tracked by the Massachusetts license board — that's BuildZoom's own listing, not an independent registry verification. One quirk in that listing: it places the company's Clinton Street address in Tewksbury, while other records tie the same street address to Everett, likely a data mismatch rather than a separate business. Worth confirming license details directly and asking whether he's available for the scope of the job before booking.
