J.P. McCurdy Electrical Services is a Lynn electrical contractor with 4.9 stars from 66 Google ratings. Its 2026 reviews cover a wide run of house electrical work: a June 2026 customer had the main panel upgraded to a 100-amp Square D QO system, a July 2026 Houzz reviewer had a level-2 EV charger installed, and an August 2026 customer said they had to shut down their HVAC system during a heat wave because of control wiring problems before calling McCurdy. In February 2026, one customer got next-day service for a tripping office breaker and another had old analog thermostats switched to digital ones. One June 2026 reviewer said McCurdy had been their electrician for 20 years. Billing is the sore point. In a May 2026 Google review, a customer said they were billed for more than two hours while technicians went to get bulbs, and that the charge came to over $2,000 against another electrician's $780 quote. A Beverly neighbor on Nextdoor in 2025 warned against hiring the company.
“And, just to reiterate: never hire McCurdy Electric. Since I posted about my experiences with them, I've received a few DMs and comments from others who had similar experiences.”
Five stars for JP McCurdy! During a recent heat wave, I had to completely shut down my HVAC system because of some severe control wiring problems. I called JP McCurdy, and they responded quickly to my situation. Ryan and his apprentice came out, quickly diagnosed the electrical issues, fixed everything, and tested the system to ensure I was cooling again. I was incredibly satisfied with how fast they got me back up and running. I’ve used them before for a 100-amp panel upgrade and an electric vehicle charger installation, and their work is always top-tier. Highly recommended.
Einsten from McCurdy was exceptional. Service was on-time, of high quality, and amiable. Great job and no regrets using this company. Will continue to use without question.
This is my second time using JP McCurdy Electrical Services, and they delivered perfectly again. I originally hired them to install a 100-amp service panel and an EV charger they recommended, which has been working flawlessly. Recently, during a heat wave, I had to completely de-energize my HVAC system due to some dangerous electrical and wiring problems. I called JP McCurdy and explained my situation, and they responded incredibly fast. Their electrician, Ryan, and his apprentice showed up, quickly diagnosed the exact problems, and fixed the wiring. We tested everything together, and they had my AC up and running safely again. I am extremely satisfied with their prompt, highly qualified work! Thanks McCurdy from Brian Fitzgerald
Very professional and well-organized. I had them install a level-2 EV charger. Their bid came in $600 below the other one. They have an easy to use system for quotes and customer communication. They scheduled realistically and always arrived on schedule. They had good advice on which charger to buy and how to care for it. They will be my go-to electrician in the future.
The technicians showed up on time, were very communicative, and professional! Answered all of my questions and provided extra options to help make the most affordable decision for our family. Highly recommend!
