Matthew S. Berman is a Salem-based electrician with 17 permitted electrical jobs on file, concentrated in Marblehead, Nahant, Salem, Peabody and Beverly between 2011 and 2024. BuildZoom lists an electrician license (#21069) for him, though the same number shows up twice on the profile with conflicting information — once as active and verified, once unverified with an expiration BuildZoom last saw back in 2016. The written reviews on file are older but detailed. In a 2020 review, a longtime customer described 13 years of "old-school" electrical work across two homes — upgrades, fixes and additions — and called him fair on pricing and willing to explain a job in detail. A 2019 review described spot light, wiring and ceiling fixture work and called him reasonably priced. A 2017 review mentioned a $2,675 job that included landscape lighting, completed over three days. With a small but consistently positive written record and permitted work stretching back over a decade, it's worth asking directly to see current license paperwork before hiring, given what BuildZoom shows.
Many separate electrical projects and repairs over the course of 13 years. Matt's "old-school" repair and service in the very best sense of the term! He's been our go-to electrician for around 13 years, including upgrades, fixes, and electrical additions throughout two homes. He's tackled more than his share of working with or around the electrical oddities that one finds in an 150 year old house, and is supremely fair in terms of charges and billing. And for those that are mechanically inclined like I am, I appreciate that he's willing to explain in detail the process of the jobs he performs, as well as the solutions. Lastly, he's just a nice guy; maybe not required for competency, but it never hurts!
Many various electrical jobs. Installing spot lights, wiring and installing ceiling fixtures and ad. Matt Berman has got to be the best electrician I have ever had on top of the fact that his prices are reasonable and he is a great guy. You cannot go wrong hiring him.

Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Matthew S Berman. 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
