## The honest read

RJL Electric is an electrical contractor based at 5 Brookview Dr Ext in Pelham, New Hampshire. Its website presents the company as licensed and insured in Massachusetts, serving residential and commercial customers with electrical repairs, panel upgrades, rewiring, lighting, generators, EV chargers, solar, and mini-split HVAC work.

Customers consistently describe detailed, careful work and strong communication. Reviews cover multi-panel service upgrades, kitchen and outdoor lighting, Tesla charger installation, ceiling fans, troubleshooting, well-circuit repairs, and coordination with other contractors. A reviewer described a complex service upgrade with three new panels completed cleanly and correctly; others report prompt emergency response, including arrival within an hour, and repeated fair pricing. Google shows 5.0 stars from 40 ratings.

RJL appears suited to homeowners needing routine electrical upgrades, lighting, EV charging, generators, or urgent troubleshooting.
