Verified record
Yow Electric is an Arlington electrician backed by an unusually deep paper trail: BuildZoom shows 211 permitted electrical projects across the Boston area under owner Edward A. Yow, whose Massachusetts electrician license is active and verified against the state registry. That volume of permitted work points to years of steady jobs, but there isn't a customer-review history yet — BuildZoom notes it has received none for the business, so there's no written account from past clients to weigh alongside the permit record. Before hiring, it's worth asking directly about recent projects similar to yours, since what's public here is permits and a license rather than reviews.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Yow Electric. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
