Electrical in Chelsea: what's different here
Chelsea packs three-deckers and early-1900s multifamily buildings into a very small footprint, so original galvanized supply lines, shared walls and small electrical panels are the norm.
What it costs here: Labor follows Boston-area rates, and tight street parking plus second- and third-floor walk-ups regularly add time to an otherwise simple job.

Renovation work in pre-1978 buildings falls under federal lead-safe (RRP) rules, so a pro doing more than minor repair should be RRP certified.
