Brookline Electrical Services is a one-person shop on Boylston Street, run by Mathew Jordan, who the company says has worked as a Master Electrician in the neighborhood since the 1990s — more than 30 years. Its site describes residential and commercial work covering lighting, panel upgrades, and round-the-clock emergency calls, with a service area stretching from Brookline Village and Coolidge Corner out to Newton, Brighton, Allston, and Jamaica Plain. The two Google reviews on file, both from August 2026, tell a similar story: someone called in the morning and had an electrician at the door within hours. One customer had outlets grounded, a few more added, and a ceiling lamp installed, and said the technician worked cleanly around some last-minute changes; another simply called the visit efficient and polite. Two reviews is a small sample, but both point the same direction. Before booking, it's worth asking about credentials directly. The site lists Jordan's Master Electrician license along with a long roster of stated certifications — OSHA 30-hour safety, arc flash safety, generator and EV charger installation, journeyman electrician, and more — but none of it has been checked against a state registry; it's the company's own account of its qualifications, not an independent verification. For a same-day repair or a small electrical job in Brookline or the immediately surrounding towns, this is a reasonable call based on what little written record exists — just confirm current licensing yourself before the work starts.

Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.

They were able to come same day. Hein was efficient and polite. Got the job done.
Stellar service and great timing. Rang in the morning and I had Hien at my door just a few hours later. The job (outlet grounding and installation of a few more outlets and ceiling lamp) was executed flawlessly and Hien was very accommodating with some minor changes I’ve made along the way. The service is a bit on the expensive side but worth it considering the result. I’ll definitely recommend.
