Best Electrical

Best Electrical is a Malden electrician whose Thumbtack page reads 5.0 from 19 ratings — every single one five stars — and the reviews on file back that up with real detail rather than a rubber stamp. The company says it's been at it for six years and lists a mini-split HVAC specialty alongside standard electrical work: panel upgrades, wiring, lighting, and outlet and switch repair. The written record is a few years old — five reviews, all from 2020 and 2021 — but it holds up well. In an April 2020 review, one repeat customer described a run of work across multiple projects: light fixtures and outlets, roughing in and finishing electrical for bathrooms and additions, panel updates, and an exterior service repair, calling the pricing competitive and the crew easy to deal with. Others describe the same shape of job on a smaller scale — a September 2020 review credits them with fixing a difficult power run from the street to the house and explaining the fix step by step, and a 2021 review says a lighting job went well enough that the same homeowner brought them back to redo the house's outlets and switches. Two shorter 2020 reviews mention an electrical emergency fixed on the spot and a panel job that a crew led by someone named Bill started and finished on time. What to know: nothing on file is more recent than 2021, so there's no way to speak to how the crew is performing today — worth a quick check on current availability and lead times before booking. For anyone in the Malden area with everyday electrical work — a panel upgrade, a lighting swap, an outlet or two that needs fixing, or an after-hours problem — the reviews on record point to a shop that shows up, explains what it's doing, and finishes the job. Confirm current pricing and scheduling, since the written track record predates the last several years.
