JML Electric

Count the reviews that mention an EV charger and you have most of JML Electric's written history: Juicebox 48s, level 2 units, 240-volt lines run out to detached garages. Whatever else this Wakefield shop does, that is what its customers wrote about. The licence checks out. Massachusetts lists electrician registration 20345 as active, held of record by John Michael Lopriore. BuildZoom additionally lists master, journeyman and business-licence records for the company and a New Hampshire master licence — those are the directory's own claims, not something confirmed against a registry. What people keep describing is the work done before the install. In March 2023 a customer wrote about an outdoor Juicebox 48 tied into a new basement subpanel, priced under three competing electricians, installed within a week of signing, drywall patched afterwards, and a load-balance calculation run on their two-family so the building would pass inspection. In May 2021 another described a 200-amp service upgrade brought to code with the old panel cleaned up, plus help claiming the EV rebates. In April 2021 a customer noted John was the only electrician who came out to look at the job rather than quoting off photos in an app. Two things to raise. That same March 2023 reviewer, happy overall, said the City of Cambridge inspection paperwork dragged and they had to chase the company for weeks to get it sorted — worth agreeing up front who files what. And an October 2022 customer paid a little above a couple of competing quotes, though they felt the work justified it. The written history also runs 2018 to March 2023 and stops there, so the 4.9 average across 24 Angi ratings — the same 24 HomeAdvisor publishes, since one listing mirrors the other — describes the early 2020s rather than this year. Right call for a north-of-Boston homeowner putting in a home charger or upgrading a panel to carry one. Settle who handles the permit and inspection scheduling, and pin down the rebate paperwork before work starts.
