What electrical work costs in Amherst
The straight answer for Amherst: no two jobs price the same, so you get a written price before any work starts. Amherst is served by Eversource and no other electric utility.
Amherst pairs high home values with old houses: 55 percent were built before 1980, and the village center is on the National Register of Historic Places. Georgian, Federal, Greek Revival and Cape houses line the 160-acre Amherst Village Historic District around the common, listed on the National Register in 1982. Faith Electric quotes every Amherst job in writing, and the electrician who quotes it is the one who does the work.

Exterior work in Amherst's local historic district goes through a Historic District Commission application. If a new meter, mast or outside light is part of the job, we plan that step in before work starts.
Are older Amherst homes harder to rewire?
They take more care. Plaster walls, old framing and earlier wiring all shape the route a new circuit can take, and any circuit we modify gets the arc-fault protection New Hampshire's code now asks for.
