  • Deep review history — 20 reviews from 2021-2026, all five-star
  • Fast response — same-day and next-morning visits described often
  • Lydon Electric is a Peabody, Massachusetts electrical contractor run by owner Joe Lydon, a licensed Master Electrician whose Massachusetts license is verified active by the state registry. Established in 2009, the company's site says Joe brings over 35 years of electrical experience. On Google, it holds a 4.9-star average from 32 ratings. The 20 reviews on file, spanning 2021 through early 2026, are remarkably consistent — every one is five stars, and reviewers name Joe directly again and again. A recurring specialty is knob-and-tube wiring: one reviewer calls the company "THE company to use for knob and tube replacement," praising it as professional, kind and affordable, and another describes Joe's team remediating extensive knob-and-tube wiring in their home along with adding outlets and new fixtures. Several reviewers describe Joe stepping in to fix a previous electrician's poor work — one recounts him coming out the next day to fix and complete a job after having to fire the original contractor. Responsiveness comes up constantly: reviewers describe same-day and next-morning visits for a stove circuit breaker that kept tripping, a doorbell installed the morning after a Monday-night call, and a next-day fix for wiring damaged by a lightning strike. Bigger jobs on file include an EV charging outlet install and a home generator power outlet installed alongside repairs to several faulty exterior and interior outlets. Recent activity keeps the pattern — 2 reviews in the last six months, both positive, including one from a customer who says Joe changed their mind after a frustrating run of rude, unhelpful calls to other electricians. For knob-and-tube rewiring, EV chargers, or any electrical troubleshooting in the Peabody/North Shore area, this is a heavily reviewed, verified-licensed electrician with an unusually clean, consistent record.

      After a frustrating experience calling several other companies where I was met with rudeness and lack of help, I finally found someone who completely changed that experience. Joe was incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely cared about helping me. Not only did he take the time to understand the issue, but he also went out of his way to get the job done as quickly as possible. What stood out the most was how he even apologized for the poor experiences I had with other companies, something he didn’t have to do, but it showed his character. It’s rare to come across someone so respectful, responsive, and dedicated to their work. I’m extremely grateful for his help and would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a reliable electrician. Thank you again for your outstanding service!

      I'm so grateful for Lydon Electric! I had an electrical issue come up unexpectedly and Joe was able to come out the next day with one of his employees (Danny), who resolved the issue within an hour or so. Everything has been working perfectly since. What really stood out to me was that Joe called me afterwards to make sure everything was still working before even asking for payment. That level of service is rare, and I would absolutely recommend Lydon Electric to anyone who needs reliable electrical work.

      Called Joe as I was looking for an electrician for a stove circuit breaker keep tripping when both oven and stove on. He was able to figure it out and able to get the repair done.

      I came across Joe while working at my last employer. Had him come out to fix wiring due to electrical shortage caused by a lightning strike. Did an excellent job. Recently, we had one of his guys come out to install a wired smoke detector in another room so that it would qualify as a 3rd bedroom. He came right out and installed it extremely fast. Good guys, excellent electricians. Prices are extremely reasonable, especially when compared to the big guys. Highly recommend.

      I had a time sensitive electrical project and reached out to a few local companies. Joe was not only responsive but by far the most professional. He listened to my concerns, answered all questions, and provided expert advice...even going above and beyond in trying to source a part that we needed for one of our projects. He provided value even before coming out for the project. If you want an electrician that knows his stuff but also clearly cares about people then I highly recommend Joe Lydon.
