Verified record
M.W. Burns Electrical Contractors has worked out of Medford since 1968, describing itself as a commercial and residential electrician handling audits, repairs, installations, and build-outs — a run the company states as 58 years in business. The Better Business Bureau's own profile confirms that address and history, though the business isn't BBB Accredited and carries no BBB rating there. One dated account from a building association shows the kind of work it does: in a January 2020 notice, M.W. Burns is credited with installing mandated exit signs on every floor and at every door — routine compliance work, done and reported without complaint. Its Google page carries a handful of ratings (5★ from three), too few to lean on for a track record, but consistent with the rest of what's on file.
“January 31, 2020: M.W. Burns Electrical Contractors recently completed installation of mandated Exit Signs on all floors and at all doors.”
