F.E.C. Electrical Heating and Cooling

F.E.C. Electrical Heating and Cooling works out of Saugus, and by its own account it's built around panel upgrades, EV charger installs, heat pump mini-split work, and higher-end lighting jobs, serving towns from Lynnfield and Marblehead to Winchester, Melrose, Newton, Belmont, and Wellesley. Three years of reviews — 62 of them, split across Google and Thumbtack — circle back to the same name over and over: Nick. He's the one who picks up the phone, walks the job, and does the work himself, often with his father alongside him on bigger jobs. Panel work is the thread that runs through most of it: breaker fixes, full panel swaps, service upgrades. Emergency calls come up often too — a Sunday-morning outage fixed under the original estimate, a nighttime no-power report answered and resolved before 5:30 the next morning. That pattern hasn't let up recently. In the last few months, one customer had a breaker issue in their panel sorted out, another got a microwave circuit fixed, and a repeat caller flagged him again as prompt and professional on yet another visit — nothing negative shows up in that stretch, and it lines up with the run of five-star ratings behind it: 4.9 on Google from 64 reviews, 4.9 on Thumbtack from 56. One thing worth checking before booking: Thumbtack lists the license as verified for a Master Electrician credential in Massachusetts, but that's Thumbtack's own vetting, not a confirmation pulled straight from the state board — a quick call to check the license number directly costs nothing and closes the loop. For panel work, wiring troubleshooting, or an EV charger install anywhere from Saugus out to Wellesley, three years of consistent, name-checked reviews make a solid case. Get a written estimate up front, verify the license number with the state, and the rest of the track record does the talking.
