Serving Medway & West Medway
Electrician in Medway, MA
Medway is a town of homeowners. More than eight in ten housing units here are detached single-family homes, and that shapes the electrical work we do in town. Simolari Electric handles panel upgrades, EV chargers, lighting, and emergency repairs across Medway and West Medway.
The Electrician Medway Homeowners Call
Medway sits directly north of Franklin, which makes it one of the closest towns to our base and one we work in constantly.
The housing here is unusually consistent. Around 80 percent of Medway's roughly 4,800 housing units are detached single-family homes, with a median build year near 1976, and steady newer development continuing through today, including 55-plus communities and subdivisions off Route 109 and Holliston Street. That mix produces a specific set of jobs: 1970s and 1980s homes that have outgrown their original service, and newer homes where owners are adding capacity for things the builder never planned for.
Medway Village and West Medway hold the older stock, including homes in and around the historic district, where the work looks more like careful rewiring than straightforward upgrades. We do both.

Common Electrical Work in Medway
Capacity for electrification.
This is the dominant Medway job right now. Homeowners are adding heat pumps, induction ranges, EV chargers, and hot tubs to homes with 100-amp or early 200-amp services. Individually each addition seems fine. Together they exceed what the service can carry. We do a real load calculation before quoting, so you find out up front whether the panel needs to come first.
Renovation and finished basement wiring.
With most Medway families in single-family homes and staying put, remodels are constant. Finished basements need dedicated circuits, proper egress lighting, AFCI protection, and GFCI where required. Kitchen remodels need appliance circuits sized correctly. All of it requires a permit and inspection through the town.
New construction and additions.
Medway has active development, and new builds and additions need full rough and finish electrical work coordinated with the general contractor's schedule. Alex is on site for these, which is why they don't slip.
Older home rewiring in the village districts.
Medway Village and West Medway include genuinely old housing. Ungrounded two-prong outlets, cloth wiring, and undersized panels are all common, and the fix has to respect the house.

Medway Electrical Questions
Can my Medway home handle an EV charger without a panel upgrade?
Sometimes. It depends on your existing service size and what else is already on it. A Level 2 charger typically needs a dedicated 40 or 50-amp circuit, which is a meaningful addition. We run a load calculation before quoting, and we'll tell you plainly if the panel has to come first rather than installing something that will nuisance-trip all winter.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Medway?
Yes, for essentially anything beyond a like-for-like device swap. Massachusetts requires permits pulled by a licensed electrician, with inspection by the town's Inspector of Wires. We handle the permit and the inspection so you're not chasing paperwork.
Do you work with builders and general contractors in Medway?
Yes. We do rough and finish electrical for new construction, additions, and full renovations, and we coordinate directly with the GC on scheduling. Alex is present on every project, so there's one point of accountability from estimate to final inspection.
How fast can you get to Medway?
Medway borders Franklin, where we're based. It's a short drive, and same-day and emergency service are both available. Call (508) 918-4525.
