Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Olson Electric. 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.

Awesome service. Jake is very knowledgeable, punctual, and informed of electrical trends. He spent time with us making us aware of electrical safety and ways to protect our home. Highly recommended.
Jake was great! We met him before he became a full time business and we are so happy with our new lighting. We had a total of 11 recessed lights installed, 5 light fixture replacements, and 4 out door fixtures replaced, plus checked our electrical in our attic for Mass Save purposes. Our house looks like a completely different place. He did all of this in one day! Super friendly and responsive. We highly recommend and will continue to use Olson Electric for our electrical needs! Updating my review to say that Jake came out twice in two weeks for us and completed almost all of our electrical needs! Added more recessed lighting, dimmer switches and light fixture replacements. We will have him back to replace our panel this fall. Looking forward to that upgrade and replacement!
