Paul Eklund Electrician

Paul Eklund Electrician is a father-and-sons operation working the South Shore — reviews consistently name "Paul and his sons" as the crew that shows up. The company describes itself as family-owned and operated for more than 35 years. The story reviews keep telling is same-day or next-day response paired with real explanation. In the past few months, one homeowner had a generator interlock and hookup installed with what they called professional communication throughout, and Paul also came back on short notice for an unrelated issue the caller admitted was their own doing. Another homeowner had panel updates, outlet upgrades, and a sump-pump battery-backup installation done, and singled out how clearly the work was explained. A third called out the crew's responsiveness and communication as what made the job feel smooth. That's not a new pattern — the broader record runs to 32 reviews across four sites going back to 2022, and none of them turn negative. Google alone shows a 5.0 average from 42 ratings, though only nine of those carry written detail, so most of what's knowable rests on that smaller, consistently positive sample rather than a deep written archive. Separately, Boston permit records show 8 electrical permits filed since 2013, every rated one closed out. A couple of things worth checking before booking: a license number (000029757) turns up on a third-party contractor-aggregator site, but nothing here confirms it against the Massachusetts registry, so ask directly rather than assume it's current. Directories also disagree on the shop's home base — some list Holbrook, MA, others Weymouth — worth confirming which town they're actually dispatching from. For panel work, troubleshooting, or a specific install like a generator interlock or battery-backup setup, the reviews point to a responsive, explain-as-they-go outfit with a long, clean run behind it.
