K-1 ELECTRIC

K-1 Electric runs out of a single Newbury Street address in Peabody, handling residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work across the North Shore. Mohsen (Moshen) Paznik is named as the owner in both the Better Business Bureau's file and the company's own site, where customer testimonials refer to him by first name -- a sign this is a small, owner-operated shop rather than a multi-crew outfit. Its Better Business Bureau file carries an A+ grade, and it's a listed member of the Peabody Chamber of Commerce. Google and Birdeye both put it at 4.5 stars, but on a base of just two ratings apiece -- too thin to say much about consistency one way or the other. An older 2020 electrician roundup cites a Massachusetts license number and a Yelp 5.0 from a single review, but that's a self-reported, unverified figure from years back, not something checked here against a current registry. One thing worth asking about directly: the company's own site says it was "established in 1992," while the BBB lists the business as started in 2007 -- a fifteen-year gap worth clarifying before assuming decades of continuous operation under this name. The BBB grade is also unaccredited, meaning K-1 hasn't gone through BBB's formal vetting process. With so few independent reviews on record, this reads as a small, owner-run shop with a clean regulatory footprint rather than one with a deep, verifiable review history. Worth a call for smaller residential electrical jobs, but confirm current licensing directly and ask for a couple of recent references given how thin the public track record is.
