Twenty-eight ratings on Thumbtack average 4.9 stars, and the five detailed reviews on file tell a consistent story: small electrical jobs done fast, with the tech staying in touch the whole way. Donnelly & Abate's Electric works out of Quincy, and the man behind most of the reviews — Tom — handles everything from a new outlet behind a mounted TV to a vanity light swap to diagnosing a fixture that stopped working. Customers keep coming back for the same thing: responsiveness. One 2022 review described Tom staying in touch through scheduling, showing up on time, then calling back after the job to flag that a thermostat hadn't been switched off before he left. Another, from a repeat customer earlier that year, credited quick diagnostic work across two separate visits. A 2021 review — the oldest on file — described a job finished within the quoted time and price. Worth knowing: Thumbtack shows a journeyman electrician's license on the profile, but that's the directory's own listing, not something checked against the state's registry, and no license number is given. The platform's own count also shows a small share of its 28 ratings — about one in 28 — came in at 1 star, though no detail on that job is available here. This reads like a good call for the everyday electrical fix — an outlet, a light fixture, a stuck breaker — rather than a full rewiring or panel-upgrade job, which none of the reviews describe. Confirm the license status directly before booking anything larger.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Donnelly & Abate's Electric. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
Estimated range
$530 – $1,100
Typical electrical project around $820
Tom did an awesome job installing a new outlet and running the cable lines behind our new tv above our mantle fireplace (he would’ve mounted it but Best Buy was coming for free to do it). We had a great meeting, he accurately quoted me, and he came on time when our appointment was. Did excellent work, super friendly guy, and was overall 5/5 stars. Would definitely hire again and absolutely recommend.
The best! Very responsive, professional and efficient. Tom stayed in touch during scheduling and was very prompt. He answered all my questions and made common sense suggestions without any upsell commentary. All of the work that Tom and Val did was complete and clean. Tom replaced a thermostat and checked that it worked before he left. A few minutes later, he called back to let me know that he had not turned it off when he left. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness. I highly recommend Tom and Val. And they are just all around nice guys!
Tom and his colleague installed a new vanity light for us as well as replaced an existing one. From first contacting them until the work was done they were communicative, professional, and hard working; I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an electrician.
Used them two times already and both times they were highly responsive. Great diagnostic skills, which allows for a fast repair process. Will most definitely be continuing to use them in the future. Thanks a lot Tom! Good work is hard to find these days.
Tom was great to work with and he had the project finished within the estimated time frame and price. I would definitely recommend Tom to anyone looking for electrical work and I will look to hire him again for any future needs.
