Eight electrical permits, pulled between 2005 and 2009 in Somerville, Cambridge, West Newton and Chestnut Hill — that is the trail BuildZoom shows for Paulo's Elec, an electrician based at 283 Main St in Winthrop. BuildZoom describes those eight as a sample of the shop's permit history. Those jobs are close to two decades old, so they say where the shop was working then rather than how it handles a job now. BuildZoom also gives it a score of 0, which the site says does not place it in the top half of Massachusetts contractors. If Paulo's Elec is on your list for a Winthrop or inner-suburb job, start with a short call: ask for a current Massachusetts electrician licence number and two or three recent jobs you can follow up on before anything gets scheduled.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Paulo's Elec. 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
