Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Russell Hansen Electrician. 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
Typical electrical project around $820
One customer called over a holiday weekend and had their air conditioner moved onto its own breaker, with worn-out equipment swapped while he was there. Another, in a March 2026 review, wrote that he arrived within an hour of the call. Two ceiling fans went up on a few days' notice. Russell Hansen is the electrician people call for the job that has been nagging at them. Two things come up again and again in what customers write. He tells them what the work will cost before he starts it, and he does not add to the list. An April 2026 customer put it plainly: he did not try to sell them anything they did not need. Another that month had an annual service done on a generator, a spare key ordered for it, and an outlet put in that meant cutting into a wall, and called the fee more than fair. The written history is short and all of it is recent. Twenty-five reviews, every one from 2026, sit across Angi and HomeAdvisor, each showing a 5.0 average from 55 ratings. In a March 2026 review, a customer whose project had been a headache before he turned up said he traced and fixed every issue on the visit. The jobs described are service calls: dimmer switches, floodlights, a hanging chandelier, a fault nobody else had pinned down. For a small electrical job you want done soon and explained in plain language, that is what his customers describe getting. Since the written history starts in 2026, ask about his licence and insurance, and about a job the size of yours, if what you need is bigger than an afternoon's work.
He was professional, friendly, confident and fast!
Did a great job getting my air conditioner onto a single circuit breaker, and replaced worn out equipment. Was able to come out very promptly around a holiday weekend as well.
Russell was very communicative, explained what he was doing and did a very good job.
Russell was great, very , on time and very accurate. He did not try to sell me anything I did not need. I would recommend him for anything.
Russell was able to come by days notice to install 2 ceiling fans. He was great to talk to very clean and respectful. I will be using him again for future times.
