# Ltc Electric **Trade:** Electrical · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.1/5** (low confidence) — from 6 reviews across 2 sources. 100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Ltc Electric is a Norwell electrician for the everyday call — a stuck breaker, a dead switch, a full rewire after old DIY work goes wrong. The company says it's been family-owned and operated for 39 years, run by Thomas "Tom" Mccarthy. The clearest thread through its five-review Thumbtack history is showing up fast and finishing what's found: in an April 2024 review, a homeowner describes Tom taking on a complete rewire after uncovering safety problems from old DIY wiring, working through surprises along the way without cutting corners. Other customers, writing across 2023 and 2024, describe next-day visits for a timer switch and a failing floodlight, four light fixtures installed in about an hour, and same-day repairs — each crediting him with explaining the work and giving a fair estimate on the spot. Those five accounts sit inside a 4.9-star average from 17 Thumbtack ratings, 94% of them five stars. Thumbtack also has him background-checked and named a 2024 Top Pro. For a specific electrical job — a rewire, new outlets or fixtures, a breaker panel that needs attention — he's shown a pattern of pricing the work up front before starting, worth asking about when you call. **Strengths:** - Fast response — reviewers cite quick, next-day and same-day service - Full rewires — completed a whole-house rewire after DIY wiring problems - Top Pro badge — background-checked and Thumbtack's 2024 Top Pro ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A family-owned and operated electrical shop, run for 39 years _(confidence: high)_ - [Thumbtack](https://www.thumbtack.com/ma/norwell/electrical-repairs/ltc-electric/service/492403975446437904) — “Stated ownership (Thumbtack): Family-owned” - [Thumbtack](https://www.thumbtack.com/ma/norwell/electrical-repairs/ltc-electric/service/492403975446437904) — “Thumbtack profile for LTC Electric (Thomas "Tom" Mccarthy) in Norwell, MA — Excellent 4.9 rating from 17 reviews, Top Pro 2024, background-c…” - Reviewers across 2023 and 2024 repeatedly credit quick, next-day or same-day response _(confidence: high)_ - [Thumbtack](https://www.thumbtack.com/ma/norwell/electrical-repairs/ltc-electric/service/492403975446437904) — “Tom responded quickly to my request and was able to provide same day service.
