KB Electric is Keith Barker's shop in Amherst, and the licence behind it is his own: New Hampshire electrician 11975, active on the state registry in his name. The company says it has served southern New Hampshire since 2007 — 19 years by its own count — on residential and commercial work alike. Angi and HomeAdvisor carry the same listing: 4.8 from 13 ratings, 69% of them five stars, with seven projects shown. The work on those profiles is the everyday core of the trade — switches, outlets and fixtures, wiring and panel upgrades, the electrical on additions and remodels, free estimates. Its own site adds standby generators, where it calls itself a certified Generac installer, plus lighting, troubleshooting, solar and EV charging. A July 2022 Google review is the one written account, and it is a complaint: 2 stars, saying the company never called back. Google's own headline sits at 4 stars from three ratings. For a panel upgrade, a standby generator or the wiring on an addition, this is a licensed electrician working under his own registry number. Ask how quickly you get a call back after the first message, confirm the Generac certification, and get the scope and price in writing before anything is opened up.
