VivaVolt is a Needham, MA electrical and clean-energy shop, and the reviews people leave after a job keep naming exactly what got done: a panel upgrade, new kitchen wiring, an attic sub panel, a pair of mini-splits installed in under a week. Ray runs the crew, and his name comes up in nearly every review. The company says it handles heat pumps, solar, battery backup, generators, and EV charger installation, plus general residential and commercial electrical work, across more than 35 towns in the Greater Boston area. The reviews are where this gets specific. One homeowner described three separate projects over time — a complete electrical panel upgrade, wiring a kitchen for new high-voltage appliances, and a full attic sub panel and electrical system — calling the crew's work clean and reasonably priced. Others describe mini-split and heat pump installs finished the same day or within a week, with the team walking them through how to use the new equipment afterward and being careful about closing doors and gates around pets. All seven Google reviews on file, dated from April 2025 through April 2026, are five stars, and two came in within the last six months. The tone repeats across different customers: prompt, professional, and communicative — one reviewer credited the crew for explaining the remote controls on a new mini-split, another for keeping the yard fences shut so dogs wouldn't get out during installation. One thing worth asking about directly: BuildZoom lists the company's license status as unable to verify with the licensing board, so it's worth confirming current licensing and insurance directly with VivaVolt before signing anything. For a homeowner in the Needham area looking at a heat pump, mini-split, or panel upgrade, VivaVolt's reviews consistently describe finished work and a crew that explains what it's doing — just get the licensing question settled up front.
