Highlights
- Repeat customers — one homeowner used Rich for multiple projects
- On time, on budget — a development client reports consistent scheduling
- Fair pricing — reviewers describe competitive quotes for electrical work
RT Electric is an East Boston electrician run largely by Rich (called Richard in one review), handling panel upgrades, wiring repairs, and electrical installations for homeowners as well as ongoing work for at least one development company. Every review on file is from 2026, and several share a similar shape: on-time arrivals, a clean workspace left behind, and pricing described as fair or competitive. One customer says Rich has worked in their home on several occasions, and a development-company review says he has handled both small and large jobs on time and on budget. Another 2026 review described a panel upgrade and repair with a prompt, professional crew. The written record here is short - seven reviews, all landing within the last several months - so there is not yet a longer history to point to. What is there is uniformly positive, with no complaints on file. Worth confirming before booking: ask about licensing and get a firm written quote, as with any contractor whose review history is still building.
What does electrical work cost in Greater Boston?
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from RT Electric. 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
