Carter Electric

Carter Electric is a Weymouth, Massachusetts electrician run by Ricky (Richard) Carter, handling a wide range of residential electrical work. Google shows a 5-star rating from 31 ratings, and the 28 written reviews on file, running from mid-2023 into 2026, are unanimous in their praise. Reviewers repeatedly single out how quickly Ricky responds, especially in emergencies. One reviewer who called eight other electricians on a Saturday night with no luck said Ricky was the one who picked up and arrived within 20 minutes to fix a stove and microwave that had shut off. Another said Ricky came out on an emergency call to diagnose and fix a complicated electrical issue. Several reviewers describe him confirming appointment times the night before and texting when he's on the way. The documented jobs range from small fixes to substantial upgrades: replacing an old 60-amp electrical service with a 200-amp panel, installing a 240-volt outlet for EV charging in a garage, rerouting exposed Romex wiring after a wall demolition, and adding recessed lighting, ceiling fans, switches, and outdoor lighting across multiple visits for the same customer. Reviewers consistently describe the work as neat, efficient, and done to the exact specification requested. Pricing comes up often too, with reviewers calling quotes fair, reasonable, and communicated clearly before work started — in contrast to other electricians who, as one reviewer put it, seemed more focused on money than the situation during an emergency call. With 28 consistently five-star reviews spanning more than three years and covering everything from small repairs to full panel replacements, this is a deep, reliable track record.
