For over 30 years, 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric has provided the highest quality, efficiency and reliability to customers. Celebrating thousands of five-star reviews online and an A+ Rating on BBB for years, the company has become the North Shore’s most trusted and consistent plumber, heating and air conditioning, and electrical service company. The company takes pride in the title as a Diamond Elite Contractor with Mitsubishi Electric and being selected into the National Grid VPI Program. Finally, a company that picks up the phone every time with manufacturer-trained technicians and a commitment to providing customers with an easy, effortless customer service experience. You're guaranteed to be left with the service and price you were quoted with customized options for what's best for your home in the long-term. 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric specializes in Installation, Service, and Repair for Boilers, Furnaces, Air Conditioners and HVAC Systems, Tankless Water Heaters, Ductless Mini-Splits and Plumbing. Worried about the cost of your next project? We have options to help you get your repairs on the way! Unfortunately, emergencies don’t wait until you have all of your financial ducts in a row.
"I’d love to leave a 0 star review if I could. The level of disorganization and miscommunication with this company has been staggering. Their customer service is garbage. Don’t waste your time, money, or energy on this company. False promises and sub-par work across the board. We will gladly take our business elsewhere in the future. We had an initial consultation with someone named Darren for a heat pump/furnace replacement. We also lumped in a sub-panel install & dryer replacement. Darren assured us that everything would go smoothly, all the work would get done over the next week. The HVAC & electrical teams showed up several days earlier than expected, which sounds great in theory, but required us to take an unexpected day off work. The wiring they ran to the thermostat was installed hap-hazardly and now just dangles off the HVAC plumbing. The electrical team installed the sub-panel, but installed it too close to our irrigation control box. Now we can’t open the door to the irrigation control box. The electrical team also installed an outlet for the new dryer in a location we wanted, but left the rest for a plumber to finish. When the plumber showed up a week later, he said the dryer could not be installed in that location. He then tried to charge us for additional work that we already had paid for in our initial contract with Darren. (He did actually charge us to cap the gas line to the old dryer). Multiple teams also told us they would haul away our old dryer. That never happened. On top of everything else, we were told (multiple times by Darren and the HVAC team) that, as a part of our 3 year maintenance plan, they would come back quarterly to install a new filter on the furnace. When we called about that today, we were told “that’s not a service we’ve ever offered.” The customer service is absolute garbage. We already feel cheated out of the money the plumber charged us. You’d think after all this, the least they could do is toss in a few filters. We’ll never use this company again. I’d caution anyone else to get EVERYTHING written out in detail before you do business with this company. Better yet, just go to someone else."

Lighting services FAQs
Typically, under-cabinet lighting costs about $265 on average, ranging from $230 to $300, depending on the type of lights, fixtures, and amount of electrical work required. Additional cost factors include the removal of old lighting, energy costs related to the type of light bulbs, and the replacement of light bulbs as they burn out.
Here are the average lighting costs by type:
LED Puck Lights: $25 per fixture
LED Strip Lights: $20 per 8-foot strip
Xenon Fixtures: $50 per unit
Fluorescent Lighting: $12 to $50 per unit
On average, the cost to install a light fixture is about $550, ranging from about $160 to $950, depending on the number of lights and the type of light bulbs and fixtures. You should consider other cost factors like your home’s location, electrical and drywall work required to install the fixture, and removal of old fixtures when creating a budget for this project. Keep in mind that replacing a light fixture typically costs less than installing one for the first time.
Recessed lighting installation costs about $360 on average, with a typical price range between $100 and $480, depending on labor cost in your area, required wiring, and the type of bulb. The cost to hire an electrician to install recessed lighting is typically $200 to $250 per fixture. If your electrical pro charges per hour, expect to pay $85 to $105 per hour for this service. Other cost factors include:
Ceiling material
Housing type
Trim type
Bulb type
Materials
Accessibility
Permits
You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.
Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:
How many years of electrical experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you work with subcontractors?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
What is the timeline for completion?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three customer references?
Several types of light fixtures are available, each requiring different installation techniques. Keep in mind that you’ll need to hire a lighting specialist to install the majority of these fixture types.
Here are some of the most common light fixture options:
Ceiling-mounted fixtures: $90–$230
Pendant lights: $95–$250
Chandeliers: $300–$2,000
Track lighting: $100–$250
Wall-mounted lights: $90–$250
Fluorescent lights: $85–$220
Light bars: $330–$440
