24/7 Emergency Electrical Repair

Knob-and-Tube Wiring Remediation

Many pre-1950 homes in Swampscott, Brookline, and Cambridge still carry cloth-insulated knob-and-tube wiring that can't safely handle today's loads and often blocks insurance coverage. We systematically replace legacy circuits with modern grounded wiring, minimizing wall damage and handling permits and sign-off.

Service Panel Upgrades (60A/100A to 200A)

EV chargers, heat pumps, and modern kitchens overwhelm older 60A or 100A services. We upgrade your panel and service entrance to 200A β€” including meter, mast, grounding, and utility coordination β€” so your home passes inspection and is ready for decades of demand.

Architectural Recessed & LED Lighting

We design and install recessed lighting layouts that flatter your home's architecture β€” proper spacing, beam spread, and dimming zones for kitchens, living rooms, and ceilings old and new. Air-tight, IC-rated housings and clean finishes, wired to last.
