Customers say: Super punctual

"I had never used a designer before but I'm so glad I did! Tess was great. She really listened to what I want and responded to that. The colors I ended up with are exactly what I wanted but could not have chosen on my own. I highly recommend Tess and I would love to use her services again for furniture."

"We highly recommend J.P. McCurdy Electrical Services. We hired this exceptional shop to replace all the old knob and tube wiring (along with switching out a number of light fixtures and installing several ceiling fans) in our 120-year-old Victorian home – a challenging job that a couple of other electricians didn’t feel confident undertaking. Owner Jack McCurdy personally came to size up the job and give us a detailed estimate, and his professionalism, courtesy and extensive knowledge sold us. What was originally thought to be a two-week job was finished in six working days as foreman Joe Costain efficiently deployed his crew and brought in a second crew on a few days to expedite the work. Joe was great at communicating what kind of activity we could expect day-to-day, especially as both my wife and I are working from home fulltime during the COVID pandemic. He and the crew checked in frequently on our preferences, minimized the number of holes in the ceilings and walls (including avoiding harming our wallpaper in a couple of rooms altogether), and cleaned up well at the end of every day. Jack’s estimate was competitive and the final accounting accurately included the additions and subtractions we agreed to during the job. We feel so much better that we’ve finally eliminated the risky knob and tube wiring and updated the entire house’s electrical system. McCurdy is a full-service shop that does all kinds of electrical work – if you want a trustworthy and capable electrician, give Jack a call!"

I’m a Massachusetts CSL-licensed contractor with hands-on experience in home renovations, repairs, and property improvements. I’ve worked on everything from smaller repair projects to complete kitchen and bathroom renovations, and I take pride in doing quality work without cutting corners.\n\nMy experience includes kitchen and bathroom remodeling, decks and framing repairs, drywall and painting, flooring, finish carpentry, closet systems, and general home improvements.\n\nI understand that finding someone reliable for a home project can be frustrating. My goal is simple: communicate clearly, show up when I say I will, provide straightforward pricing, and treat your home as if it were my own.\n\nI’m happy to take on both small projects and larger renovations, and I work with homeowners, landlords, investors, and property managers throughout the South Shore and Greater Boston area.\n\nIf you have a project in mind, feel free to reach out.

"Jason and his team upgraded and replaced the electrical panels, meter sockets, and most of the outlets at a multi-family property I own. They did incredible, clean, safe work. And even communicated with the tenants! They made everything easy, and the inspection passed with flying colors. Incredible job!"

"We've hired Northern Lights Electric in the past for small jobs and always been happy with them, so we decided to engage them when it came time to replace all of our knob and tube wiring with new, up-to-code wiring. Additionally, they improved the circuit layout in the house and added a few extra outlets and light switches that we requested. Their technicians were pleasant, on time every single day, courteous, careful with our furniture and belongings, friendly, and clearly skilled. They finished the job ahead of schedule, on budget, and to our specifications. They cleaned up at the end of every day, made minimal holes in our walls, and patched those holes when they were done. We have zero complaints, and we'd happily hire them again!"

Lighting questions, answered by experts

Yes, outdoor lights and receptacles should be on a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for safety. The outdoors is considered a wet location where GFCI protection is generally required. A GFCI enhances safety by automatically tripping and shutting off the circuit if it detects an imbalance, which protects against electrocution and reduces the risk of an electrical fire. While it is the safest approach for all outdoor electrical components, specific requirements can vary depending on the type of light (e.g., pool lights), its location, and local electrical codes. For guidance tailored to your specific situation, it's best to consult a professional electrician.

Cold weather can cause older incandescent Christmas lights to fail by causing cracks in the finish or the glass itself. Modern LED lights are affected in the opposite way and perform even better as the temperature drops. 

If your lights are shorting out during rain storms or other winter events, you should probably replace them. These shorts indicate electrical issues that could cause serious hazards. Look for outdoor-rated lights with connectors made for rainy conditions to replace them. But if your Christmas lights are new and you want further protection, you can find weatherproof covers to add to the male-end connectors of your Christmas light strings. These can minimize the risk of shorts.

Yes, professional landscape lighting is typically worth the investment. Installing a lighting system can improve your home’s curb appeal, safety, and security, and it can also deter burglars. It adds value to your home by creating a brightly-lit outdoor space you can use after dark and making the property more appealing to potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, landscape lighting can add up to $2,500 to your home’s value, and on average, this type of home improvement has a 50% return on investment.

High-quality landscape lights that are hardwired and properly maintained can last for 10 to 25 years or more. You’ll usually get a longer lifespan from soffit lights and wall-mounted lights that aren’t directly exposed to the elements or prone to damage from foot traffic or vehicle traffic. Solar-powered and battery-powered lights often won’t last as long, but you can still expect a lifespan of five to 15 years.
