Experienced | Fully Licensed | Top-Quality Work
Waiting a week for a callback while your breakers keep tripping or half a building sits without power is a frustrating way to spend your time, and it's the reason so many people around here go looking for a new electrician in the first place. At Craig Faria Electrician, we've built our reputation in and around Taunton, MA, on answering the phone, showing up when we say we will, and doing work that holds up long after we've packed the van. Whether you own a restaurant, manage 40 apartment units, run a manufacturing plant, or live in a home that was wired back when a toaster was the biggest appliance in the kitchen, we can get your electrical system caught up with how you actually use it today.
Craig Faria Electrician is a licensed electrician based in Taunton, MA, serving the surrounding communities. Craig Faria started the business in 1996 with no employees. He built it into a full-service crew handling commercial electrical services, industrial electrical services, multifamily electrical services, high-end residential electrical work, electrical panel upgrades and service changes, underground utility and primary electrical services, and more. Our team works across commercial, industrial, and residential settings, and we're a proud member of the Massachusetts Electrical Contractors Association.
Anybody can say they do good work, which is why we point people toward our reviews instead. As of August 2026, our Google rating is 4.9 out of 5 stars. Scroll down and hear it straight from the homeowners, business owners, and property managers we've worked with.
When the lights go out in a restaurant or the power flickers in a retail space, everything grinds to a halt until someone fixes it. Our commercial electrical services cover office buildings, shops, and restaurants, from generator installation and tenant improvements to service upgrades, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance.
Production schedules don't leave much room for guesswork when a conveyor stops or a control panel goes dead. Through our industrial electrical services, we wire machinery, install and connect new equipment, build out power distribution, add generator backup, and set up maintenance schedules that catch failures early.
Managing a building full of tenants means the phone rings about dead outlets, dark hallways, and breakers that won't stay on. We offer multifamily electrical services for apartment complexes, condo communities, and property management companies, including common area lighting, unit renovations, service upgrades, electrical maintenance, and generator installation.
Big homes ask a lot of their wiring, especially once you add a wine cellar, a home theater, and heated floors to the mix. High-end residential electrical services from our team include whole-home wiring, designer lighting, smart home integration, remodels, dedicated circuits, panel upgrades, and standby generators from names like Generac and Kohler.
Most houses around here were wired long before anyone owned three TVs, a hot tub, and an electric vehicle (EV) charger. Electrical panel upgrades and service changes bring your home up to speed with panel replacements, breaker swaps, meter upgrades, and code-compliance work that safely adds capacity for whatever you're plugging in.
Nothing else on a jobsite happens until power reaches the property, and getting it there underground takes some coordination. Underground utility and primary electrical services are a specialty of ours, covering primary underground utilities, trenching coordination, underground distribution, conduit and service entrance installation, transformer connections, and the infrastructure that new construction depends on.
A trouble light on the panel or a nuisance alarm at 2:00 a.m. has a way of getting everyone's attention. We install and service fire alarm systems for commercial buildings, and also offer addressable systems, upgrades, device replacement, testing, troubleshooting, and code-compliance work for new construction and existing spaces.
Half your property loses power, an outlet quits for no clear reason, or a switch starts buzzing, and suddenly you're wondering how bad it really is. Electrical service calls and repairs are our bread and butter, whether that's emergency service, tracking down a circuit issue, sorting out a power outage, or fixing lighting and equipment that stopped cooperating.
We provide electrical services throughout Taunton, New Bedford, Fall River, Dartmouth, Easton, Mansfield, Bridgewater, Middleborough, Somerset, Raynham, and many surrounding communities.
Businesses lose money the moment the lights go out, so our commercial electrical services cover office buildings, retail spaces, and restaurants with the kind of response time that keeps your doors open. Generator installation, tenant improvements, service upgrades, ongoing electrical maintenance, and troubleshooting are all part of what we do, along with the general service calls that come up when something quits without warning. Scheduling around your business hours is standard practice for us, because nobody wants an electrician working through the lunch rush.
Manufacturing facilities operate on schedules that leave almost no room for downtime, and that's where our industrial electrical services come in. Machine wiring, equipment installation, power distribution, and generator installation are all part of the work, and our preventive maintenance programs catch the small failures before they turn into a stopped line. Industrial troubleshooting takes real experience to do quickly, and after nearly three decades in plants around this region, we know where to look first.
Property managers juggle tenant calls, turnover deadlines, and budgets that were set months ago, which makes reliable electrical help worth a lot. Our multifamily electrical services support apartment complexes, condominium communities, multiunit residential buildings, and the management companies running them, covering common area lighting, unit renovations, service upgrades, generator installation, and everyday electrical maintenance.
Plenty of electricians can run wire, so here's what makes the difference when you hire our team.
Electrical problems rarely wait for business hours, so we're available for emergency calls when the power goes down at the worst possible moment.
We install and stand behind Generac and Kohler generators, since backup power isn't worth much unless the equipment is dependable.
Every job comes with a one-year workmanship warranty, which is our way of saying we'd rather do it right than come back twice.
Over 20 years in commercial, residential, and industrial electrical work have taught us plenty, and our membership in the Massachusetts Electrical Contractors Association keeps us current on code and best practices.
Massachusetts requires permits and inspections for electrical work, including many installations, replacements, and system changes. A licensed electrician can file the permit with Taunton's Building Department and arrange the required inspection.
Call an electrician when breakers keep tripping, lights flicker, outlets feel warm, or you notice buzzing, sparks, or burning smells. You should also schedule an electrical evaluation before adding major equipment, upgrading a panel, remodeling a property, or installing a generator.
An electrician typically installs, repairs, upgrades, and maintains wiring, panels, lighting, generators, circuits, fire alarms, and electrical equipment. Licensed electricians also support homes, businesses, apartment communities, and industrial facilities while completing permitted work under Massachusetts electrical requirements.
Sparks, smoke, arcing, sizzling sounds, strong burning odors, and electrical equipment exposed to water need immediate attention. Leave the area, avoid touching the equipment, and contact the fire department before arranging emergency electrical service.
Report a neighborhood or utility outage to Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant. When only part of your property loses power or breakers, wiring, or equipment appear to be causing the issue, call a licensed electrician for troubleshooting.
