Verified record
Ozolins Electric is a veteran-owned electrical shop in Chestnut Hill, the village bordering Newton, run by an electrician customers know as Chris, who says the business has 33 years of experience. The written record is small but pointed: three reviews, all posted in 2020. In a May 2020 review, a customer called Chris extremely responsive, fair, professional, and praised the quality of his work; another May 2020 review, from someone who used him as a subcontractor, called his work meticulous and named him their most important sub. A November 2020 review echoed the praise with one caveat, calling the job a little expensive but worth the price. Worth knowing before calling: the written reviews on file are all from 2020, so there's nothing more recent to confirm how things stand today, and the one specific comment on cost ran on the pricier side. For panel upgrades, wiring, and switch or outlet work around Newton and Chestnut Hill, this is a small, veteran-run shop with a clean, if dated, five-star record — worth a call, with a request for a current-year reference or two if it's been a while since anyone weighed in.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Ozolins 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.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
Typical electrical project around $820
A little expensive but worth the price
Chris is my most important sub contractor. His work is meticulous. I thoroughly recommend Chris to anyone who needs high quality electrical work preformed.
Chris is extremely responsive, fair, professional, and great quality of work.
