"I'm used to getting aggravated, not this time," a Google reviewer wrote in May 2026: John answered the phone, scheduled the work, and finished it when he said he would at a reasonable price. Several reviewers name John Telesco as the owner of Telesco Electric, a Southbury electrician at 103 Holly Hill Ln whose Connecticut electrical licence, ELC.0190340-E1, is active in the name Telesco Electric LLC. Google shows 5 stars from 9 ratings, Angi and HomeAdvisor 4.9 from 10 each, and the BBB grade is A+. The jobs customers describe include some sizable ones. In a March 2023 review, a family said John upgraded their entire first floor: recessed lighting, a rewired panel, a service upgrade, under-cabinet kitchen lighting and new wiring to the panel. A January 2024 customer had a 200-amp service upgrade, and a June 2026 reviewer had a 230-volt circuit and disconnect installed for air conditioning, plus code-compliant grounding for the main panel. In February 2024, Telesco hung a large chandelier on an 18-foot ceiling and stuck to the quoted price. Pool and spa work shows up too: a 2024 reviewer described a timer, about 30 feet of underground wiring and pool bonding, and a 2023 customer said John checked with a hot tub's manufacturer to protect its warranty. A March 2024 reviewer said problems they had lived with since the house was built were all fixed, along with others found along the way. A 2025 customer had appliance outlets installed with the drywall patched, and when they later suspected an issue, John came right back to check — it turned out not to be his work. Reviewers describe the pricing as fair, reasonable or as quoted in eight reviews.
Installed 230 V circuit and disconnect for air conditioning equipment. Installed code compliant grounding, electrode conductor system for main panel. John did an excellent job, easy to work with and is a great guy, would recommend in a heartbeat.
I called, John answered the phone , he scheduled & completed the work when he said he would for a reasonable price in a timely manner , the way it should be , wish everyone conducted business like him , I’m used to getting aggravated, not this time
John, the owner, is exceptionally professional, reliable, and honest. He recently installed appliance outlets for us, and the work was excellent. He ensured a thorough cleanup after completing the installation and expertly patched the drywall. His pricing is also very fair. I had a minor concern after the installation and contacted John, thinking there was an issue with the outlets. Despite the job being completed, he responded immediately and came to investigate. It turned out the problem wasn't related to his work, but his prompt and attentive service was truly impressive—a stark contrast to contractors who often disappear after payment. I wholeheartedly recommend this company for their quality work and outstanding customer service.
An expert electrician who was able to provide new ideas as well as exceptional service.
John owner of Telesco Electric provided me with an honest quote for intallation of a timer and approximately 30 feet of underground wiring to a post with weather proof switching and dual GFI plugs for a pool filter. Also included in the quote was a requirement for electrical bonding of the pool. John's work was nothing short of excellent. He is on my list to hire for any additional electrical work I might need in the future.
