Boston homes have character, and their electrical systems often reflect decades of changes. A brownstone in Beacon Hill, a triple-decker in Dorchester, and a single-family home in West Roxbury can each present different challenges when it’s time to repair wiring, replace a panel, or install new equipment.

At Paul Macrina Electrical, we’ve helped homeowners with electrical repairs, installations, and improvements since 1990. We understand the importance of working carefully in established homes, clearly explaining what needs attention, and finding practical solutions for your property.

If something isn’t working properly or you’re planning an electrical upgrade, schedule electrical service in Boston with your family electrician.

Electrical Services for Boston Homeowners

Electrical projects in Boston can involve anything from replacing an outdated outlet to updating wiring during a renovation. Our electricians provide residential electrical services with attention to safety, functionality, and your home’s existing electrical system.

Electrical Wiring and Panel Replacement in Boston

Older Boston properties may contain wiring installed during previous generations of renovations. We provide knob and tube wiring replacement and electrical panel replacement to address outdated components and support modern household electrical needs.

EV Charger and Outlet Installation in Boston

For Boston homeowners with private parking or garage access, a home EV charger can make daily charging more convenient. Our electricians handle EV charger installation, outlet repairs, and new outlet installations, including GFCI protection where required.

Lighting and Ceiling Fan Installation in Boston

The right lighting can make a narrow hallway feel brighter, improve a kitchen workspace, or bring more comfort to a living room. Our residential lighting services include fixture upgrades, recessed lighting, and repairs, while our ceiling fan installation services help improve air circulation.

Surge Protection and Emergency Electrical Services in Boston

Unexpected electrical problems can interrupt household routines and create safety concerns. We install whole-home surge protection to help protect connected equipment and provide emergency electrical services for urgent issues such as sparking outlets or burning smells.

Outdoor and Seasonal Electrical Services in Boston

Boston winters can bring snow, freezing temperatures, and ice buildup along roof edges. We install roof de-icing cables to help maintain drainage paths and provide outdoor lighting solutions for entrances, walkways, patios, and seasonal displays.

Pool, Hot Tub, and Generator Electrical Services in Boston

Some Boston properties have backyard pools, hot tubs, or space for backup power equipment. Our pool and hot tub electrical services include appropriate equipment connections and circuit protection, while our whole-home generator services help homeowners explore backup power options.

Electrical Work in Boston’s Multi-Unit and Historic Homes

Boston’s housing creates electrical challenges that aren’t always obvious until work begins. In a triple-decker, for example, electrical equipment may serve multiple units, while older brownstones can have limited space for new wiring or panels.

Renovations can add another layer of complexity. A homeowner updating a kitchen in Jamaica Plain or finishing a basement in Roslindale may need additional circuits, improved outlet placement, or changes to the existing electrical panel.

Before recommending work, our electricians assess the system and discuss your plans. Our electrical troubleshooting services help identify problems, while careful planning helps determine the right approach for repairs and installations.

Why Boston Homeowners Choose Paul Macrina Electrical

Electrical work in an established home deserves more than a quick fix. You need clear explanations, careful workmanship, and someone who respects your property.

  • Experience With Different Home Layouts: Boston’s brownstones, triple-deckers, and single-family homes can have very different electrical configurations. We evaluate the existing system before recommending repairs or improvements.

The electrician from Macrina Electric Company who came to replace and install a new bathroom fixture was very impressive. He knew exactly what he was doing and kept me informed during the installation of a new bathroom overhead light that had many different light settings. He advised me on the "light" setting that was perfect for our bathroom. He also kept me informed about when he would arrive.Thank You Macrina…

Someone answered the phone when we called! They came out the same day and were professional and thorough.

We had an issue with our circuit breaker - and the technician did a great job identifying the issue (cut wire from lawn service) that we would not have been able to find ourselves. Scheduling, communication from the office, and a friendly electrician that explained the issue / fix was great. We would recommend them and engage them again for future work.
