Verified record
James Doherty Electric is a Stoneham electrician who, according to Angi, has nine years of experience and offers emergency service alongside routine wiring and panel work. The clearest signal here comes from a batch of five Angi reviews, all posted in March 2019: five-star write-ups about being ahead of schedule, matching a quoted price, and keeping the job site clean, alongside one four-star review that singled out the same reliability — showing up on time and working around a customer's own deadline. Across nine Angi ratings altogether, 89 percent came in at five stars. Reviewers who hired him for additions and remodel wiring, panel upgrades, and general electrical work kept circling back to the same traits: courteous, clean, and priced what he quoted. Worth knowing: that written record is now several years old — the newest review on file dates to 2019 — so it's worth asking about more recent jobs before booking, especially anything involving emergency service, which Angi lists but none of these reviews specifically describe.
Everything went very smoothly. He was ahead of schedule. He matched his quote. Clean and very happy with the work. Professional but down to earth. Explained things in laymen terms.
He does really good work. He was prompt, reliable, never late, he did a great job. I had a lot of little things that needed to get taken care of and he cared more about my deadline than his own.
Exceptional. Clean uniformed worker. Pleasant and knowledgeable
Jim Doherty is very professional and a pleasure to work with. Jim kept the work area very clean and was time efficient. Jim was also responsive, courteous and reasonably priced. My husband and myself would use his services again.
He did a great job. He is very courteous and respectful. he has fair price.
