Michael F Gioia Electrical Contractor is a one-person Lowell electrical outfit — the kind of electrician homeowners call for anything from a panel upgrade to a stuck ceiling fan. His Massachusetts electrician license (53611) is active on the state registry, held by Michael Francis Gioia. In a 2024 review, a repeat customer described three projects together — buried conduit and new panels for a detached garage, plus ceiling fans, switches, and outlets — calling the work friendly and professional. Earlier jobs on file include installing a fixture bought overseas and swapping smoke alarms and a bathroom ceiling fan (a 2018 review), and, also in 2018, helping a homeowner install a pool by jumping in to dig trenches for the wiring. A 2019 reviewer said he stepped into work another electrician had left in a mess, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it, and a 2019 review from a church described him coming through for off-hours work on nights and weekends, with pricing in line with other contractors. On pricing more broadly, a 2021 review said he kept to his original quote and was reasonable about the overage when two projects grew beyond scope, and a 2018 review said a job finished under the original estimate. Several reviews describe repeat business — the 2021 reviewer said they'd already hired him twice, and a 2018 reviewer mentioned bringing him back for another job. Reviewers describe him showing up on time, explaining the work and any complications before starting, and cleaning up the job site when he's done. Michael F Gioia is a strong call for panel work, rewiring, or a project where a homeowner wants guidance along the way — get a written quote and confirm scope before work begins.
Michael has done three projects for us, everything from running buried conduit to new panels in a detached garage, to installing ceiling fans, light switches, and outlets. He has been both friendly and professional, and done great work! I hope he will be able to find time for me for any future projects that come up.
Michael is fantastic! We already hired him twice for electrical projects. He?s timely, responsive, professional, knowledgeable and efficient. He also keeps to his quote commitments and was very reasonable on overage when two projects went beyond the original work scope. My new go to guy
Michael was not just an electrician he was also an advisor on my project offering excellent ideas, suggestions and helping research solutions. He was also very patient with me as the time between the rough and finish electrical work was very long as I was doing all else on the build myself. I suspect many electrical firms would have sent an estimator/bidder, then a crew to the rough and potentially a different crew to the finish work, which would have squandered the continuity. Michael handled all three phases which gave me much more confidence in the prospects of getting the results I hoped for. It came out better than I had hoped.
Michael stepped into a mess that someone else created, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Very Satafied.
Very punctual, always polite, he works very well and cleans afterwards. We had him do many electrical projects and we were very satisfied. I totally recommend him.
