Christian Castaneda

A December 2023 Thumbtack review describes the kind of job Christian Castaneda gets called for: updating the lighting, outlets and switches through a house. The customer said he arrived on time, worked clean, and — their word — was fair priced. He works the Revere and Winthrop side of Boston. Thumbtack lists him for electrical work, painting, outlets, wiring, lights and circuit breaker panels or fuse boxes, shows 21 projects, and carries a 5.0 rating from one customer. On Angi he lists a different mix — handyman, hauling, moving and debris removal — from an address on Banks Street in Winthrop, with free estimates and Spanish spoken. The two listings count his time in the trade differently: three years in business on Thumbtack, about six years of experience on Angi. That is worth asking him about, along with which side of the business he is quoting for your job. For small residential electrical work — a fixture swap, added outlets, a look at the panel — he is a sensible call. Ask for his Massachusetts electrician licence number and proof of insurance, and get the scope and the price in writing before he starts.
