Smart Modern Electrical

Smart Modern Electrical works out of Burlington, running as a one-person operation for homeowners across the western Boston suburbs. On Thumbtack the business states it holds a Massachusetts journeyman electrician license and has been doing this five years — details worth confirming directly, since they come from the business's own directory listing rather than a state registry check here. Nine reviews across Google and Thumbtack from 2025 into 2026 tell a consistent story: someone calls about a failed outlet, a tripped breaker, or an aging panel, and the same electrician — reviewers who name him call him Gil — shows up fast and leaves a clean job behind. One customer got a full 100-to-200-amp service upgrade, panel swapped and all the permits and inspections handled, calling the crew clean and easy to follow along with. Another needed a circuit breaker replaced for a dishwasher and had someone out the same day they called. A third ran into a partially blocked attic trying to get a new outlet wired for a bathroom fixture; the reviewer said he worked it out anyway, wore shoe covers, and vacuumed on the way out. A fourth had an EV charger put in and called the install clean and quick. One customer hired the business twice by August 2026 and said the same thing both times — on time, fair-priced, and careful about the details. Nothing on file so far raises a concern; the short record has stayed clean since it opened. Given the volume is still modest, it's worth asking directly about the license number and coverage before booking, since Thumbtack's listing is the only place that states them. A solid pick for a fast turnaround on a repair or a full panel upgrade — the kind of shop reviewers keep coming back to for the next job.
