Scott is super responsive and professional, did great work quickly at a fair price. Highly recommend.

I wanted to add in the EXCEPTIONAL customer service that Scott provided in the middle of a Nor’easter to make sure my generator was up and running smoothly. Response was immediate and he weathered the storm (literally) to make sure we had power. Best in class.

    The service from Colonial Electric was outstanding! I called to have them come out to look at everything and they were there within a week and scheduled the work for a few days later. Scott walked me through the different options and what each one would cost and explained the difference between the work that he would do for each option. Once everything was done he showed me all of the work and made sure everything was working before leaving. I will definitely call them again if I ever need any electrical work done

Questions

FAQs

Call Us Today!(781) 287-8729
Should you hire an electrician for home repairs?

Yes, it is highly recommended to hire a qualified electrician for home repairs involving electrical systems. Attempting DIY electrical repairs can be dangerous and may result in serious injury or property damage. Fortunately, Colonial Electric offers professional electrical repair services to ensure the safety and functionality of your home’s electrical systems.

How do you know if you need an electrician?

You may need to hire an electrician if you experience any of the following issues:

  • Frequent power outages
  • Flickering lights
  • Tripping circuit breakers
  • Burning smells from outlets or switches
  • If you notice exposed wiring.

It’s always best to err on the side of caution and consult with our professionals to assess and address any electrical concerns.

What are the 3 most common causes of electrical problems?

The three most common causes of electrical problems include:

Faulty Wiring

Improperly installed or old wiring can lead to electrical problems such as short circuits, power outages, and even electrical fires. Faulty wiring is often a result of poor installation, wear and tear, or damage over time.

Overloaded Circuits

When too many appliances or devices are connected to a single circuit, it can lead to overloading. Overloaded circuits can cause circuit breakers to trip frequently, flickering lights, or even overheating of electrical components, increasing the risk of electrical hazards.

Electrical Surges

Electrical surges are sudden spikes in voltage that can damage electronic devices and appliances connected to the power supply. Surges can be caused by lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or faulty wiring within the home. Using surge protectors and ensuring proper grounding can help mitigate the risk of damage from electrical surges.
