Verified record
Taormina Electrical Inc., trading as Roy Spittle Associates, is a Gloucester shop with roots stretching back to 1962, when Roy Spittle opened the business; his son Tom and daughter-in-law Mary ran it from 1991 until Nick Taormina — a 25-year employee and master electrician — bought it with his wife Pam in 2015. The company says it handles residential, commercial and industrial electrical work plus generators and audiovisual installs across eastern Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire, with 24/7 emergency service, free estimates, and a 2-year labor and materials warranty. The customer record is thin but positive. A 2025 review credits Nick and Matt with a seamless electrical installation and thanks them for walking through the process and answering questions; a 2024 review singles out Nico for knowledgeable, responsive service on a Kohler generator. The Better Business Bureau, while not accredited, grades the company A+ and lists a file open since 1995. Beyond residential calls, the company shows up on the Procore construction network with 52 tracked commercial projects since 2022 — a different scale of work from the smaller, permit-tracked residential jobs BuildZoom shows. One thing worth asking about before hiring: Massachusetts' own registry lists an electrician license associated with the company (#13208, on record to a past owner, Thomas Spittle) as expired, and none of the several other license numbers tied to the business over the years currently show as active elsewhere either. For a straightforward residential call — a generator, a rewiring job — the reviews on file are strongly positive; given the license picture, it's worth confirming who on the current team holds an active Massachusetts electrician license before signing on for larger work.

They went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the work, and their attention to detail was impressive. The team was always punctual, courteous, and respectful of my needs. Overall, I highly recommend Nick, Matt, and the entire Roy Spittle Associates team for any electrical needs. If needed, I will definitely be using Roy Spittle Associates in the future.
These guys service my Kohler generator and REALLY know what they are doing, and they are very responsive! Nico is great.
