Lopes Electric is a one-man-led operation out of Wenham — Fernando Lopes does the work himself, with a crew for bigger jobs — and the 28 reviews on file, running from 2020 through this year, keep returning to the same point: he answers, even nights and weekends. Thumbtack's profile backs that up with Top Pro status in both 2020 and 2021, a completed background check, and a perfect 5.0 rating across 24 reviews there; the company's own site describes it as licensed and insured, backed by a one-year warranty. The jobs described range from small to genuinely consequential. In a Feb-2026 review, Fernando modified a furnace to safely run off a generator through a plug connection — hours later the power went out, and the work kept a house with a 1- and 3-year-old warm through it. Other reviews describe a Tesla charger install followed later by a full rental-property remodel, a service entrance swap on a panel-to-utility line suspected to date to 1950, and an after-hours fix to a dead AC unit on the year's hottest day. A property management firm said in a 2024 review that it uses him for everything from troubleshooting to renovation work. The one blemish: a July-2025 review described a no-show for a scheduled estimate, after the reviewer had taken a day off work, with a confirmed scheduling mix-up but no follow-up call — worth weighing against an otherwise long, consistent run of responsive service. For anything from a stuck fuse to a full remodel's electrical, the record here points to someone reachable in a pinch, with the occasional scheduling slip as the exception rather than the rule.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Lopes Electric INC. 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.

Fernando is our go-to Electrician. He has responded on weekends and schedules service for non-urgent manners in a timely manner. He and his team always remove their shoes- without being asked. After the most recent service, his team vacuumed thoroughly. As for the electrical work - complete! Fernando is kind and very knowledgable in this area. Highly recommend.
Greatly recommended! I called after hours for an emergency repair. Fernando didn’t hesitate to promptly repair the issue. The next morning, I had to call him back to replace parts per the building inspector. Once again, he didn’t hesitate, obtained the parts and came over within a couple hours to fix replace the parts.
Fernando is a great electrician and neighbor
Lopes Electric came through for us when it mattered most. He responded on short notice and modified our furnace so it could safely run off a generator using a plug connection. Just a few hours later, we lost power and because of his work, I was able to keep our gas furnace running. As the parent of a 1- and 3-year-old, keeping the house warm was not optional. His quick response, competence, and foresight made all the difference for my family. Everything worked exactly as it should, and it gave us real peace of mind during an outage. Professional, knowledgeable, and dependable. I would absolutely recommend Lopes Electric.
Lopes Electric is one of the best contractors that I've ever worked with. Fernando does what he says he's going to do, does it on time, and at a fair price. My first positive experience was having him install my Tesla charger. I appreciated his communication and promptness. My most recent project was a complete remodel of a rental property. His communication throughout the entire process was excellent. Whenever I needed for them to meet a deadline, they jumped into action and were there the next day. I would happily recommend Lopes Electric to anyone for any job.
