Boston Electric Service is a Malden electrician run by Mohamed Rharioui — known to reviewers as Mohamed, Mohammed, Moe, and Mo — who the company says has 24 years in the trade, working fire alarms, commercial kitchen wiring, EV chargers, surge protection and 24/7 emergency calls across Massachusetts. The volume and consistency here stand out: 58 Google reviews since 2024, with 46 quoted, every single one five stars — a run that includes both residential homeowners and repeat commercial clients. One general contractor described working with Mohamed for years on both commercial and residential projects, calling him honest and fairly priced; a remodeling company owner in Swampscott said he's used him for four to five years and calls him one of the most professional, honest electricians he's met. The work described ranges from routine fixes to substantial upgrades. A 2025 review described a 200-amp service upgrade with old wiring and connections cleaned up in an older home; another described running electric out to a detached garage to install an EV charger. A 2024 review described a gas station's fire suppression system failing during harsh weather and causing a business interruption — the kind of commercial emergency work that shows up more than once in the record. Speed comes up constantly: a Sunday emergency answered and resolved same-day, a weekend faulty-switch swap, a same-day fix for a delivered stove that needed its power cord installed the weekend before Christmas, and several reviews describing arrival within the hour of a call. Reviewers also consistently mention fair, competitive pricing and clear communication, including one who noted Mohamed sent video evidence after finishing a job the customer couldn't be on-site for. Google shows a 5-star average from 69 ratings. Nothing negative shows up anywhere in the written record here. Between the emergency responsiveness, the commercial track record, and the volume of repeat business from contractors and homeowners alike, this looks like an electrician people trust with both quick fixes and bigger jobs.

Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).

Prompt, professional, and efficient electrical work. Found the problem quickly and got my pool equipment running again.
I got just deep enough into a DIY project to recognize the wiring I was finding in my ceiling was .... odd. I called Boston Electric and Mohamed was at the house just over an hour later. Mohamed took care of everything and fixed the newly discovered wiring issues the same day. Professional work. Professional responsiveness. Professional clean-up. These are the guys to hire for your electric work!
Mohamed did an excellent job! He is very knowledgeable, worked efficiently, and did a clean job.
Mohamed was quick to respond and worked quickly to fix several broken outlets. Not an expert on pricing but felt very reasonable for the work that was done.
Had a great experience with the electrician. He quickly diagnosed why the breaker was tripping repeatedly, explained the root cause clearly, and fixed the issue efficiently. The troubleshooting was thorough and professional, and everything was resolved in no time. Really impressed with the quality of work and attention to detail-highly recommend this electrician.
