Family-owned since 1979, Sylvester Electric serves Salem from nearby Dracut. We start with the equipment you have and what you want to change, then explain the electrical scope and pricing before you authorize work.
Updating rooms in North Salem? Bring the electrician into the plan before choosing fixture locations or closing walls. Finished ceilings, additions and access from a basement or attic affect how circuits can reach the spaces you are changing. Share your room layout and equipment plans so we can assess the existing installation and explain the options. A home's age or neighborhood alone does not establish its wiring condition or a need for complete rewiring.

Planning entrance lighting, garage power or a charging spot near one of Salem's lake areas? Think about where the equipment will go and the route back to the electrical panel. A detached building, outdoor wiring route and finished indoor space each raise different installation questions. Tell us about access and the intended use before buying equipment. Exterior projects may also involve property-specific planning requirements; confirm those before settling on a location.
Additions, accessory living spaces and home charging
Salem provides local guidance for homeowners considering an accessory dwelling unit. If you are planning an attached living space or a detached unit, discuss its appliances, heating and cooling equipment, lighting and other loads together. We can assess the existing electrical capacity and proposed circuits as part of the project planning. A separate panel does not automatically increase the property's service capacity, and the electrical estimate does not replace Town review of the overall project.
Start with how much charging you need, where you park and what capacity the existing electrical system can support. Compatible load management may be an option where the equipment and installation support it. If you live in a shared building, confirm parking rights, owner or association approval, and access to the equipment serving your unit before installation planning.

Technician arrived on time, was friendly and courteous and explained issue. He repaired the problem quickly and efficiently and I was happy with the cost… not overcharged. I have already recommended the company to my friends and relatives.

Absolutely loved working with you guys. You made it out so quickly to resolve a very dangerous and all too common issue with amazing customer service. Mike was great and made sure to walk me through what was going on. Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Sylvester Electric responded immediately to our urgent situation, while others turned us down. The electrician was knowledgeable, professional, and quickly resolved our issue. Without a doubt, they will be our “go to” electrician going forward.
Planning a repair, renovation or new installation? Here are a few things to know before you book.
Yes. Our Dracut-based team serves Salem. Share your service address and the issue or project so our office can arrange the appropriate visit.
No. A home’s age or location does not establish the wiring type or condition. We assess the actual installation, earlier alterations and proposed work before recommending repairs or rewiring.
Call our office to describe the issue and check appointment availability. For smoke, fire or immediate danger, leave the area and contact emergency services.
Not always. We assess existing capacity, charging needs and the proposed circuit. Compatible load management may be an option where supported. A panel replacement alone does not increase service capacity.
Bring the proposed room layout, appliance and heating equipment details, and wiring access into the electrical discussion early. Confirm Town requirements for the overall project and coordinate the electrical scope before walls close.
