Verified record
Welch Electric Co is an Edgartown electrician that BBB lists as started in 1987, with Lee Welch named as owner. Both of its Google reviews are one star, and both are about the phone manner rather than the work: a July 2025 reviewer wrote that the man is "rude when answering the phone" and curses, and a 2022 reviewer called him "a grouch." Google shows 1 star from 2 ratings. The state registry lists Massachusetts electrician licence #4542, held by Welch Electric Co Inc, as expired. BBB shows the business as Not Rated and not accredited.
