Expert Solutions for Dorchester Homes

From scheduled maintenance to major infrastructure overhauls, executed to the highest trade standards.

01

Knob-and-Tube Wiring Remediation

Many pre-1950 homes in Dorchester, Brookline, and Somerville still carry original knob-and-tube wiring — ungrounded, brittle, and often buried under insulation where it becomes a genuine fire risk. We map every legacy run, replace it with modern grounded copper, and coordinate with your insurer, since most carriers now require K&T removal before writing or renewing a policy.

  • ✓ Code-compliant installation
  • ✓ Upfront agreed pricing
  • ✓ Workmanship warranty included
02

200A Service Panel Heavy-Ups

If your home still runs on a 60A or 100A service, flickering lights and tripped breakers are only the beginning. We handle the full heavy-up: utility coordination with Eversource, meter and riser replacement, new load calculations, and a cleanly organized 200A panel ready for central air, heat pumps, and EV charging.

  • ✓ Code-compliant installation
  • ✓ Upfront agreed pricing
  • ✓ Workmanship warranty included
03

Architectural Recessed & Accent Lighting

Recessed lighting done right is invisible engineering — proper IC-rated housings for insulated ceilings, precise layout math so cans land evenly, and dimming circuits that don't buzz. We design and install recessed, under-cabinet, and cove lighting that flatters triple-decker bay windows and low Boston-era ceilings alike.

  • ✓ Code-compliant installation
  • ✓ Upfront agreed pricing
  • ✓ Workmanship warranty included
