Mount Auburn Electric is a family-owned Cambridge electrical contractor that says it has been operating since 1946, now in its third generation with over 60 years of combined experience across the family and a master electrician on the team; BBB records list owner Joe Ianelli and a 3-employee shop. The two written reviews on file, both from the past year, describe a professional, prompt team working at competitive rates — one reviewer said the office was easy to reach for scheduling and that the crew went 'above and beyond' on the job. With a long self-reported history but only a couple of detailed written accounts online, it's worth asking for a few recent references before committing to larger work.
Highly professional and prompt service at competitive rates.
Had a great experience. The teams was very professional, arrived on time, and office was easy to get a hold of for scheduling questions. They went above and beyond for the job, and I would highly recommend
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Mount Auburn Electric Inc. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
Typical electrical project around $820
