Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Nicholas J. McLean Electrician. 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.

Typical electrical project around $820
Eighty-five permitted electrical jobs sit behind Nicholas J. McLean's name, nine of them in the last three years, and they circle one kind of work: 100- and 200-amp service upgrades, panel replacements, whole-house surge protection, and the generator and EV-charger jobs that come with them. His Massachusetts electrician licence, number 53676, is active on the state registry in his own name. He works out of 68 Handy Rd in Pocasset, a village of Bourne, and the service area on his Porch profile runs thirteen Cape Cod and South Coast towns — Bourne and Falmouth through Sandwich, Mashpee, Wareham and Buzzards Bay. Two of the permits on file are in Methuen, well off that map. The written accounts are older. In a July 2016 Angi review, a customer wrote that he responded quickly to the work request, showed up at the job site promptly at the agreed time, and had the job done quickly and correctly; a second reviewer that same month called him personable, flexible, efficient and polite. Both are 5★, and they are the two ratings behind the 5.0 on his Angi page. A couple of things to settle when you call. That Angi profile lists free estimates, no warranties and no emergency service, so if your trouble tends to happen at 10pm, ask first, and pin down what he stands behind if something needs a second visit. The tenure he self-reports doesn't agree between profiles either: Porch says 6 years in business, Angi says 11 years of experience. For a panel swap, a service upgrade, a generator hookup or an EV charger around Bourne and Falmouth, he is a straightforward call — the permitted work is there in the town files. Ask him to confirm he covers your town before you go further, and get the callback and warranty terms answered while you are on the phone.
