JP Electric and Son is a Fitchburg, Massachusetts electrical contractor run by Joshua Page, its owner, alongside a team of electricians and office staff including Aaron, Paul and Doris. Its Google page holds 46 reviews averaging 4.9 stars, and 2026 reviewers have named Aaron for removing old outdoor lighting and Paul for outlet troubleshooting and new light and plug installations. A few reviews raise pricing as a concern — a March 2026 customer said 'my issue is with the pricing model,' and a 2023 review called a charge unreasonable — and a June 2026 review noted good, quick work but no clean-up afterward. It's a fit for both quick electrical fixes and larger jobs like generator installs, with pricing and cleanup worth confirming up front.

I cannot recommend JP Electric. The electrical work itself was good, and I agreed with the electrician’s recommendations. The switches needed to be replaced, the existing lighting was outdated, and replacing the recessed lights was a sensible recommendation. My issue was with the estimate and the way the pricing was presented. I had already committed to a $247 service/assessment charge when I received the proposal for the work. The estimate did not separately show parts and labor. For example, a recessed light that I found selling for approximately $22 was presented at approximately $295. When I questioned this, I was told that labor was rolled into that amount. The total job was approximately $1,450 and took about four hours, including travel time to obtain parts that were not on the truck. Based on the retail prices I found, I estimate the actual parts totaled around $150. The estimate made inexpensive parts appear substantially more expensive because labor and markup was embedded in the individual line-item prices rather than clearly identified. When I questioned the pricing, there was considerable back-and-forth rather than a straightforward explanation. I also felt somewhat trapped. I had already spent $247, the switches were broken and needed to be replaced, and the lighting needed updating. Starting over with another company meant potentially losing the $247 without knowing whether I would ultimately save money. The work itself was good. My complaint is not about the quality of the electrical work. I felt the estimate was deceptive and the pricing lacked transparency. For that reason, I cannot recommend JP Electric.
Very efficient, Very nice and right on time - actually even a bit early. The fan looks and works great and they left the worksite spotless.
JP Electric is a company that a homeowner can rely on. They know their business, are professional and responsive; a company you can really count on.
We had an electrical issue that required massive work and they completed the job in less then 24 hrs and were totally professional and honest throughout the process. Would 1000% use them again!
I had very old, broken & no longer working large, outdoor lighting units removed. Aaron did a great job. From the office folks to the service technician - a great experience. Doris, answering calls to scheduling services, was friendly, efficient with initial, confirmation and follow-up communications and is a wonderful voice representing the company... 5 stars! Aaron B arrived on time, worked efficiently, totally professional, left not a speck of anything, and he was really nice! Another 5 stars! I already have an appointment for the next job.
