Loughlin Electric, Inc. is a Wrentham-area electrical contractor handling residential and commercial work, including repairs, panels, lighting, generators, inspections, and small remodels. Its own website describes 24/7 emergency service across Southeastern Massachusetts, while BBB identifies James Loughlin as president and says the business started in 1987. A Massachusetts electrician license held by James J. Loughlin was registry-verified active on August 25, 2026.
Customers repeatedly describe prompt emergency response, clear explanations, tidy work, and courteous technicians. Recent reviews cover kitchen lighting, outlets, ceiling fans, generator transfer switches, circuit repairs, smoke detectors, and complex rewiring before a home closing. A 2023 reviewer described storm-damaged service being repaired quickly with an inspector brought in, while another detailed a 240V kitchen outlet installed cleanly and without later problems. Google shows 4.8 stars from 238 ratings; the written record includes many specific positive accounts but also a small set of complaints about estimates, service fees, and response time.
Before booking, confirm the full scope and price of diagnostic or emergency visits. One January 2026 reviewer objected to a $400 charge for 45 minutes of work and a separate visit fee; another reported a $3,005 quote for a small outlet job compared with a $500 competing quote. A 2022 reviewer said an overnight smoke-alarm problem was not handled as expected, and a 2024 reviewer reported not receiving a response to an appointment inquiry. These accounts sit alongside many positive experiences, so written scope, response expectations, and any Family Club or discount-plan terms are worth clarifying.
Loughlin is a sensible call for homeowners needing licensed electrical repairs, upgrades, emergency restoration, or inspection-related work across its stated service area. Ask which technician will handle the job, whether permits are needed, and what the estimate and visit fees include before authorizing work.
