Poulin Electric is a long-running, family-run electrical shop in Nahant — 44 years in business according to its BBB profile, which rates it A+, and Angi lists a self-reported trade license (#3896, good through 2028). Its written reviews are mostly old: seven of the eight on file predate 2018, running back to 2012. In a 2012 review, a home builder described using Ed Poulin for both personal and business jobs, residential and commercial, calling the pricing fair and communication good, with "never had a problem." A 2016 review recalls a charger installed on schedule with the site left clean; another from that year describes a technician explaining an inherited electrical system the homeowner had no documentation for. The most recent review, from 2022, still calls the work "prompt and efficient." A 2018 review called the pricing "a little pricey," though it still rated the work 4 stars overall. With nothing written more recently than 2022, it's worth confirming current availability and pricing directly before booking.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Poulin Electric Co Inc. 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

They do an excellent job, prompt and efficient.
A little pricey but on time, neat, good work.
Professional, reliable and responsive. Arrived on time as promised, installed the charger in time as estimated, left the site clean. Always returns my calls.
Technician was on time and was very professional. Took the time to explain how our system worked as we inherited it with the house and didn't have any documentation.
Very satisfied with the service I received.
