Paul Chace answered a September 2021 Thumbtack inquiry by explaining how the homeowner might fix the problem themselves; when that did not work, he came out and replaced the broken GFCI outlet. That is the shape of most of this work — one electrician and the jobs a house actually throws up: fixtures, ceiling fans, breakers, outlets, chargers. His Angi profile, which trades as Paul W Chace out of Sudbury, credits him with 53 years of experience. Several of this year's accounts are small jobs handled quickly. In May 2026 he came the same day, replaced defective breakers, made other repairs and pointed out upgrades worth considering. An April 2026 customer says he took account of the equipment and wiring already in place and wrote an estimate well under the ones they had been given. In August 2026, updating a light fixture ran into unexpected trouble, and what that customer wrote about is Paul staying with it and explaining what was going on. The longer jobs read the same way. In August 2025 a homeowner had four ceiling fans installed and was kept informed of what each location needed — removing existing track lighting, installing a fan box, extending the wiring. Another August 2025 review covers recessed lights in three bedrooms and the living room, with extra work added after the main scope was discussed, and the job left neat and clean. In April 2025, a customer whose earlier electrician had looked at a problem and could do nothing with it says Paul knew exactly what they were describing; the same month, another had an outlet put into the garage ceiling for a new electric garage door opener. A December 2024 reviewer had a charger installed and the site left clean. One customer's experience ran the other way. In February 2026, a three-star reviewer wrote that building codes were missed, the work had to be redone, and it cost them an additional $800; Angi's profile describes that complaint as a re-done EV charger job. For a Sudbury-area homeowner with a fixture to hang, breakers acting up or a charger to add, Paul Chace is a straightforward hire — 135 ratings at 4.9 on Angi, 45 at 5.0 on Thumbtack. Get the scope and the price down in writing before he starts, and on anything code-bound, agree up front what happens if the work does not pass inspection.
Paul did a great job updating my light fixture. He was very easy to communicate with, transparent about pricing and friendly! There were some unexpected challenges with the light fixture and Paul was committed to finding a solution and explaining to me what was going on! I would definitely recommend him!
Professional, clean work, pleasant
Fine and dandy.
Paul was able to come on the same day. He replaced the defective breakers, made some other repairs, and got the job done quickly. Also made some recommendations for upgrades. Very satisfied with the service.
Great fella with lots of experience
