Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.

Philip Waters Electrician is a one-person residential electrical business run by Philip C. Waters out of Pocasset, Massachusetts, handling household wiring, panel and generator work, and green-energy electrical installs. He holds an active Massachusetts electrician license (No. 19901) that matches the state registry exactly under his own name, and self-reports a NAPCEP Photovoltaic Associate certification alongside a Connecticut electrician license the state hasn't independently verified in this scan. The reviews on file — six on Google, spanning 2021 through early 2026 — describe a contractor who shows up when he says he will, communicates clearly, and leaves the job site clean. Several go beyond generic praise: one homeowner describes a complicated install with three subpanels, a generator inlet, and new hot tub wiring, done efficiently and at a fair price; another describes several projects in a 70-year-old house — outdoor and basement lighting, stove wiring, circuit-breaker work — calling him responsive to scheduling and honest in his recommendations. Nothing in the record raises a concern: there are no negative reviews or government actions, and the one license the state can verify checks out under his own name. The one thing worth confirming directly is the Connecticut license, since that credential rests on his own website rather than an independent registry check. For a homeowner needing an older home rewired, a generator installed, or general electrical repair, the review history and verified license point to a solid, trustworthy hire — just confirm current availability and, if it matters for your job, the out-of-state credential.
Wonderful experience, super helpful, great result
Phil did great work for us, and his rates are quite reasonable. I had a pretty complicated install with three subpanels, a generator inlet, and a new hot tub, and he figured out how to do it efficiently and kept materials costs down.
Philip has done several electrical work needs for me in a 70 year old house. Very responsive to calls and scheduling. Installed out door electric boxes, out door and basement lights. Electric wiring to stove and circuit breakers. Reasonable price. Honest in his professional recommendations. A local business and pleasant to work with. 😊
Working with Phil was great! He is a true expert. He worked with me to make sure I understood everything and that I was perfectly happy with the plan. He was always on time. Great communication, excellent work.
Phil arrived when he said he would and after his excellent work left the area clean as a whistle. KUDOS
