Replacing knob-and-tube wiring is among the jobs customers described hiring Turcotte Electric to do. In a June 2016 HomeAdvisor review, a homeowner said Ray and his staff converted that wiring throughout the house and garage, added outlets, explained the work beforehand and cleaned up immediately. A May 2016 reviewer described Chris completing unfinished knob-and-tube work for Mass Save in one day, with Ray explaining the requirements and adjusting the bill for an added item. Turcotte Electric's website describes residential and commercial electrical work and lists Westfield, Amherst, Chicopee, Holyoke, Northampton and Springfield as its service area. The company says it has 26 years in business and advertises free estimates, insurance and 24/7 emergency service. Customers also described smaller installations. A June 2016 HomeAdvisor reviewer reported two ceiling fans, a chandelier and correction of wiring in an outlet, praising the workmanship and reasonable price. A March 2016 review described an under-cabinet light installation and a kept appointment. In July 2016, another homeowner said Ray and Chris had finished the first half of a wiring update in an 85-year-old house; the customer said the work was on time and as discussed, with the remaining phase planned for fall. HomeAdvisor and Angi each show 4.9 stars from 36 ratings, while the written customer history runs from 2015 to 2021. In February 2021, Cassandra praised an on-time arrival and a quickly completed job. A March 2016 customer did report an arrival delay caused by other emergency jobs, but said Ray remedied it by sending Chris and that the work was done quickly. The Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+ grade and lists licence numbers 18022 and 39969.
