Our story
Thomas Gallant Jr Electrician Inc was established to meet the growing demand for trustworthy, code-conscious electrical services in the Westport area. Our founder — a trained and licensed electrician — built a team that emphasizes hands-on experience and continuous training. Over six years, we have completed a broad range of projects: from simple outlet repairs and ceiling fan installations to whole-house rewires, service upgrades, generator installations, and industrial switch-gear work.
Why local expertise matters
Local electricians understand the specific needs of homes built in the region: older wiring types, common renovation requirements, and seasonal impacts on electrical systems. We bring experience working in both newer constructions and older Westport homes that may contain outdated wiring such as knob-and-tube. Our familiarity with Massachusetts code ensures inspections and permits proceed smoothly.

Generator and emergency lighting installation
Switch-gear, voltage, amperage assessments, and safety inspections

We work with local suppliers when possible and provide emergency services to support neighbors during storms and outages. Our reputation is built on long-term relationships and practical solutions that help local homeowners and businesses maintain safe, efficient electrical systems.

We recommend periodic inspections for both homes and businesses to identify loose connections, overheated breakers, or aging wiring. Preventative maintenance also ensures smoke detectors and fire alarms are functioning correctly and circuits protecting critical loads are reliable.
