Meet Master Electrician Colin Hebert... and His Father/Apprentice CJ!

Colin Hebert is the owner and master electrician behind CJH Electrical. With over 8 years of field experience and a deep love for old architecture, Colin has built a company that combines craftsmanship with creativity. After managing large commercial and industrial projects across the state, he founded CJH Electrical to focus on what he loves most—preserving New England’s past through meticulous electrical work.

And he’s not doing it alone. Colin’s dad, Carl "CJ" Hebert, joined the business after retiring from a lifelong career in military and civil service. A former U.S. Army medic and counselor for the Department of Veterans Affairs, CJ now brings his precision and discipline to every jobsite as an apprentice electrician. It’s a rare and special bond—father and son, working side by side to do work they believe in.

We specialize in upgrading the electrical systems of homes built before 1960, preserving their character while making them safer and more functional for modern life. From careful wire fishing to panel upgrades and service overhauls, we treat every project with care, respect, and craftsmanship.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every home is different, and every wire we run is planned with intention and purpose. Your old house deserves a thoughtful approach, not a patch job.
