## The honest read

Nextwave Electrical Contractors, LLC. holds a 5-star Google rating from 84 ratings. The company says it has served clients across Fairfield and New Haven Counties since 2003, and it lists Fairfield, New Haven, Stratford, Southport, Westport, Shelton and Milford as its service area.

A 2025 customer said Ted has done several jobs for them and that they keep bringing him back for their electrical needs. A 2024 customer with a 100-plus-year-old house said Ted completed the work within 2 days and checked that the house was electrically safe. In a 2024 review, a customer said Ted found the right solution for replacing an outdated smoke detection system and was fairly priced.

A 2022 customer who said they spent 15 years in the trades wrote that the company upgraded their home's service and installed outlets and lights, on time and on budget. A 2022 customer said the electrician found faulty wiring and fixed it, and that the estimate was priced by the job rather than by the hour. In 2022, a customer said they came out the same day and corrected an issue with their wiring and ring camera. A 2022 customer said Ted and his crew helped pull the town permit and finished the work within a week.

In a 2021 review, a customer said they had Nextwave install a generator inlet and transfer switch.

**Strengths:**
- A service upgrade — a 2022 customer said it was on time and on budget
- A same-day wiring fix — a 2022 customer said they came the same day
- An older-home safety check — a 2024 customer said Ted confirmed it was safe
- A generator transfer switch — a 2021 customer had one installed
