Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc.

Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc. is a Holliston, Massachusetts electrical and telecommunications contractor that has been in business since July 1978, when Wayne Griffin opened his own electrical subcontracting shop in town. It now works out of 116 Hopping Brook Road with regional offices in Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina, and the trade press describes it as a leading electrical subcontractor across New England and the Southeast. Importantly for a homeowner reading this page: the company presents itself as a subcontractor to general contractors, architects and engineers on corporate, educational, industrial, medical, municipal, retail and transportation projects. Its Procore listing shows an average project size in the tens of millions of dollars. Nothing in the evidence shows it taking homeowner service calls, so it is not scored as a residential electrician here. What the record does document is training and tenure. Trade publications report an in-house Apprenticeship Training Program running roughly thirty years, an annual apprentice competition now in its twentieth year, and a 2025 Gould Award reported by Associated Industries of Massachusetts. ENR's 2024 New England ranking lists the firm out of Holliston with Wayne J. Griffin as president. There are things to weigh. Violation Tracker records a $6,394 federal Labor Department wage-and-hour penalty dated March 11, 2007, and an OSHA inspection record names the company with no outcome stated in this evidence. Google shows 4.4 stars from 73 ratings, but the readable review bodies are employee and vendor commentary — including a supplier describing a refused pole delivery and a project manager they called rude — rather than accounts of hired work. If you are a general contractor, owner or facilities manager building or fitting out a commercial or institutional project in New England, this is a firm to shortlist and check references on directly. If you are a homeowner looking for someone to trace a dead circuit, this is not the right call, and the evidence here would not support telling you otherwise.
