Laku Electric

Laku Electric is a one-person Dedham shop built on fixing what other electricians got wrong. Several reviewers specifically brought Avdulla Cekrezi in after a prior contractor misdiagnosed or mishandled a job — in a 2025 review one customer called him in to sort out circuit breakers a different electrician had left in bad shape while installing a 220V dryer breaker, and in a 2023 review a homeowner said he found the actual problem for a fraction of what a previous quote of nearly $3,000 to replace a main panel would have cost. Thumbtack's own vetting lists a Massachusetts Journeyman Electrician license under his name. The written record on him runs about eight years deep. Angi reviews start in 2018 and Thumbtack has picked up more recently, adding up to a 4.8-star average across 43 Thumbtack ratings and a 4.9-star average across 33 Angi ratings. The same themes repeat across nearly every year of it: he shows up when he says he will, often the same day or the next business day, and reviewers keep calling his pricing fair or competitive. The work itself is everyday household electrical — outlet and fixture swaps, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, a Nest doorbell, an EV charger — along with panel upgrades and troubleshooting older wiring, including a case where he inspected and signed off on dead knob-and-tube runs in an older home. Reviewers also mention that he keeps the work area clean and does minimal cutting into walls when running new wiring. There's one specific complaint worth knowing about before calling: in a June 2023 review, a customer said a pantry light fixture he'd installed weeks earlier stopped working, and that on the return visit he said the switch simply had no power rather than diagnosing it further. Angi's own listing for the business notes that Laku Electric publicly disputed that account in its reply — it's the one low mark on an otherwise long run of five-star reviews. Separately, the business's own listings don't agree with each other on how long it's been operating: Angi's profile states 20 years, HomeAdvisor's states 27. Laku Electric is a reasonable call for the smaller residential electrical jobs — a dead outlet, a breaker that keeps tripping, a light that won't work, an EV charger or panel upgrade — especially if another electrician already took a swing at the problem and missed. For a bigger job, it's worth pinning down the scope and what a return visit covers in writing, since the one dispute on record was about exactly that.
