New Bedford's Zach Costa Electrician has a short but spotless start: every one of the seven reviews on Angi comes back five stars, and the same handful of words keep showing up — reliable, reasonably priced, on time. In a series of reviews from mid-2025, homeowners described specific jobs rather than vague praise. One customer had a ceiling fan installed and was surprised there was no dust or mess left behind after the ceiling was cut into. Another hired him to install outdoor lights, then called him back a second time to swap a ceiling fan and add new closet lighting. A third says they've used him for every electrical job across two homes for more than four years, citing on-time work and willingness to answer emergencies. A more recent job was an EV charger installation alongside smaller work like new outlets and outdoor fixture repairs. Several reviewers specifically called out fair pricing — one noted a professional who "brings their own vacuum," another called the rates very reasonable — and repeat business shows up more than once in this small set of reviews, a sign people call him back rather than shop around next time. Angi lists a trade license for the business (#60385, expiring July 2028); that's the directory's own record rather than something verified against the state registry, so it's worth confirming directly. The self-reported service list runs from EV chargers and panel upgrades to new-construction wiring and even septic pump work — a broader spread than what the reviews themselves describe, which is mostly small residential jobs: fixtures, fans, outlets, and lighting. For a homeowner with a project like a ceiling fan swap, an EV charger, or a smaller wiring job, the reviews point to someone easy to deal with who shows up and does the work he quoted — worth asking directly about availability for anything larger, since none of the reviews on file describe bigger renovation-scale work.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Zach Costa Electrician. 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.

Zac did an excellent job from start to finish. The quote and explanation of options were great. He was very clear about job expectations and a job completion time line. He supplied the appropriate materials requested for the job and was also very professional throughout the process. His price was reasonable and I would definitely hire him for future work.
I had a ceiling fan installed and couldn't be happier with my overall experience! The job was done quickly and efficiently. I was honestly expecting a mess from cutting the hole in the ceiling, but there was no dust or mess left behind at all – everything was spotless when he finished. Overall, it was a great experience. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality electrical work:)
Zach is more than reliable, honest and efficient. Nothing beats when a professional brings their own vacuum. Fairly priced and does a great job! Reasonable person too. Hired a handful of times already, and will continue to reach out when needed. Thanks for the work! ~ Craig D.
I have used ZCE for the last four plus years for every electrical job in both of my homes. He does good work, reasonably priced, on time and will even answer emergencies. I highly recommend him!
