Cape Cod Electrical

Cape Cod Electrical is a Marstons Mills electrician whose reviews circle back to one job more than any other: keeping the power on through a Cape Cod outage. Standby generator installs, seasonal maintenance, and storm-season repairs dominate the record, and the company's Massachusetts electrician license is active, registered to owner Nicholas McElroy. The Better Business Bureau grades the business A+. The volume behind that reputation is real — more than 200 reviews collected since 2021 across Google, Angi, and HomeAdvisor, nearly all five stars, and the stories hold up under repetition instead of reading like filler. A recent review describes a permitting-heavy generator installation that still landed on time and on budget, and another from this summer recounts a generator the company hadn't even sold failing during a blizzard — an office manager, Lynn, answered the phone when other companies weren't picking up at all. In a 2025 review, a customer describes the crew swapping out a 20-year-old generator in under three hours, then powering a dock with both 50-amp and 30-amp service on the same visit. Beyond generators, the same names keep showing up — Chris, Sean, Colin, Evan — across panel upgrades, EV charger installs, and mini-split work. A recent review describes a 200-amp service and circuit-board replacement paired with an EV charger install; in a 2025 review, a customer credits Chris with tracing and rewiring an entire circuit of back-stabbed connections after half a kitchen lost power; and in a 2023 review, an electrician showed up less than 24 hours after a scheduling call to fix low-voltage shelf lighting before a holiday. The one real flag worth asking about: a June 2026 review describes a $14,000 generator that was installed but, per the customer, never fully connected despite repeated follow-up calls — a single complaint among 40 reviews in the past six months, but a costly one if it recurs. For routine electrical work — panel upgrades, troubleshooting, EV chargers, lighting — the license is active and the praise is consistent enough to make this a reasonable default call on the Cape. For a major generator or whole-house project, it's worth pinning down the installation and final hookup timeline in writing before signing.
