Verified record
James M Butler Electrician is a long-running one-person electrical business in Milton — Better Business Bureau records show James Butler has operated as a sole proprietorship since 1980, and the BBB gives the business an A+ grade, though it isn't a BBB-accredited business. There's very little public feedback to go on: just one Google review, from April 2025, describing a job to replace every circuit breaker in a roughly 6-year-old electrical panel, priced at over $800 through a personal connection versus an estimated $2,000 otherwise. It doesn't say how the work turned out. With only one review on Google and no other customer accounts available, there isn't enough here yet to characterize what working with this contractor is typically like.
Needed to replace every individual circuit breaker from a new box that was installed only 6 or so years ago.It’s going to cost over $800 because I know someone, otherwise would cost $2000.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from James M Butler Electrician. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
