Verified record
Mark Barbeau Electrical is a one-person shop run by its namesake electrician out of Beverly, Massachusetts. BBB lists a Massachusetts electrician license for Barbeau (#38859) with the state Board of State Examiners of Electricians. Five Google reviews between 2022 and 2026 tell a consistent story: panel work done carefully. Reviewers describe a 200-amp service upgrade completed on schedule, a full kitchen-and-four-bathroom rewire with recessed lighting called "methodical and flawless," and — more recently — a panel upgrade plus wiring for two new bathroom additions after the homeowner interviewed several electricians first. A Saturday emergency call and a same-day callback on a stuck circuit round out the record, with more than one reviewer noting he arrived on time and explained the fix. For a bigger project like a panel upgrade or an addition, it's worth confirming his schedule up front — BBB lists him as a one-employee operation.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Mark Barbeau Electrical. 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.

I had an issue on a Saturday that turned out to be a simple, silly thing, but Mark went out of his way to come help me and was really nice about it! Highly recommend!
Mark upgraded our home's service to 200 amps. I would highly recommend him. He's quick to respond, stayed right on the timeline, and delivered clean professional work.
Mark Barbeau updated and rewired my entire kitchen, four bathrooms and lots of recessed LED lights. He is methodical and flawless in his approach, which is what you want from an electrician. Highly recommended.
Left a voice mail explaining my situation and my called was returned within 24 hours. Scheduled an appointment and Mark arrived on time. He resolved my electrical circuit problem quickly with minimal inconvenience, all at a fair price.
Vast technical knowledge, skill, and excellent customer service are a rare combination in the trades. Mark is one of the rare ones. I recently purchased my first home which required a substantial amount of work to be done. After interviewing a large number of electricians, I chose Mark because he was able to thoroughly explain what needed to be done, he offered me the right price for the project, and I could tell he would be easy to work with. He upgraded the service panel, installed the electrical for 2 new bathroom additions, and installed outlets, lighting, and smoke detectors in 2 bedrooms and a hallway. He was punctual, worked efficiently, and offered sage advice, which helped streamline the project from a time and cost standpoint. He always responded promptly to a text or call and when I needed a wire moved or a fixture changed, he would show up the same day or the following morning. You can't ask for a more dedicated electrician than that. I hope to have him on every job from now on.
