Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).

Mike and his crew did all the electrical work for our newly constructed home. They communicated and coordinated with our builder directly, were extremely efficient with their time, and were remarkably tidy with with their work and always cleaned up after themselves. The crew is also courteous and professional. I have continued to use them for smaller projects around the house after we moved in, adding more outlets and lights, wiring for an outdoor heater and new bar appliances, so large or small, they do it all and treat every job as it was their only one. Mike is passionate about the field and the community, which is what we look for when hiring someone for a job. Since we are new in town, whenever we need another professional he's my go to on referrals. He has never let us down and we will continue to use him for all our future projects.
We have used Mike for multiple small projects and most recently used him for the wiring when building our detached garage. Mike and his team are extremely professional and do quality work. He was honest and upfront about all aspect of the job. If you are looking for a professional that will communicate clearly, complete the work in a timely manner and provide a high level of service I would highly recommend Mike and his team.
I use Michael post electric for a company I used to work for in Mansfield Massachusetts. Mike and his team were professional on time and and did really honest work.
