Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Marshfield 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).

Marshfield Electric is run by Rob Thomas, a Massachusetts Master Electrician whose electrician license is active, verified against the state registry. He started taking on jobs around 2020 after the pandemic paused his union electrician work in Boston, and the company has grown by word of mouth into a small South Shore team — Rob, journeyman electrician Nestor Matute, and apprentice Emily Donovan — covering towns from Marshfield to Weymouth and Plymouth. The recurring theme across well over 100 Google and Angi reviews is speed and communication on the harder jobs. When a customer needed an emergency panel upgrade, four people from the crew worked nine hours the next day to install a new outside connection, a new inside box, and higher amperage, at what the customer called a reasonable price. Another homeowner needed a Tesla charger installed in an unusual spot, and the crew made it work. After a blizzard knocked out an entire outside electrical system, Rob's team replaced it quickly, and one customer says Rob talked them through getting a portable generator running ahead of a different storm. Several reviewers single out technicians by name for explaining the problem before fixing it — Nestor for diagnosing issues thoroughly, Emily for working fast and cleanly. There isn't much to flag here. Nothing in the more than 100 reviews on file since 2020 describes a problem, and the last six months alone added fifteen more, all five stars. For anything electrical on the South Shore — a stuck breaker, a full panel replacement, an EV charger — this is a licensed, closely reviewed team with a habit of taking on the trickier jobs; the biggest praise is how often people say they'd call again.
Excellent service, they sent text to update arrival time, easy to work with, definitely recommend 👍🏻
Rob and his crew did a fantastic job correcting a number of issues for us. Rob is incredibly skilled and his ability to trace, diagnose and correct the cause of our problem was unparalleled. All in all a great experience from a good guy with great employees. Highly recommend.
