Marcelo R. Soares Electrician is a Mashpee-based electrical contractor run by its namesake, Marcelo R. Soares, who by his own account has been in the trade for over a decade. He holds an active Massachusetts electrician license (#13036, verified through the state registry and matching his own name), and the business carries 'Approved' member badges on both Angi and HomeAdvisor. Customers who have hired him consistently come away satisfied: across Angi and HomeAdvisor he holds a 4.8 out of 5 rating from six reviews dated 2021 through 2025. Reviewers repeatedly praise how quickly he responds and shows up, including a same-day circuit-breaker fix and a job where he sent two electricians after an initial scheduling mix-up. The work itself draws specific praise for panel upgrades, wiring, and outlet, switch and fixture repairs, with several reviewers saying they'd hire him again. Worth asking about before booking: one 2023 review noted being left off the schedule at first and felt the final bill ran a bit higher than expected, even though the crew that showed up did good, clean work. For straightforward home electrical work on the Cape -- panel and breaker issues, wiring, outlets and fixtures -- this is a licensed, locally based option with a clean track record so far, though with only six reviews on file it's worth confirming current pricing and availability directly.
Fantastic job. Great price. Very accommodating. And very friendly.
Fast response, fixed problem with circuit breaker quirky
Marcelo offered good advice, prompt service and quality work. I would definitely recommend him and be pleased to have his team work in my home.
Called us back in a timely manner, professional, clean and did the work as promised. Excellent price as well! Definitely recommend to all
He did forget to put me on the schedule but he sent over two electricians that day. They did good work and cleaned up after. I would hire them again. the bill was a bit more than I expected but so is not everything else these days.
