## The honest read

A circuit kept tripping and knocking out power to an 82-year-old mother's TV room. A recent Thumbtack customer said Matt of MB Electric responded within 5 minutes, arrived within the hour, and, when the issue returned that day, came back at 7 PM free of charge, rewiring switches and realigning wires in the circuit panel until it was fixed.

The company's website lists service upgrades, new circuits, lighting, EV chargers, generators, pools and hot tubs. It holds a 4.9-star Google average from 27 ratings and a 4.6-star Thumbtack average from 25, and its Better Business Bureau grade is A+.

A recent HomeAdvisor customer said Matt replaced an old electric service panel quickly and neatly. A recent Google customer said he installed a Tesla wall connector and cleaned up after himself. A recent customer said MB Electric rewired their pool house and gazebo with GFI protection. A 2025 customer said the company came out in about 2 hours to switch AC units on an electrical panel that the customer's original contractor had crosswired. A 2024 customer said Matt installed new ceiling fans in an old house. A 2023 customer said an electric car charger install was set up in a couple of texts, from quote to a Thursday 10am slot to a texted invoice link.

A 2025 HomeAdvisor customer called the costs too much: $250 for coming to the house, $26 for an Angi referral, and over $400 to replace a circuit. A 2024 Google customer who hired Matt to expand a bedroom closet said the trim, drywall taping and baseboards were left looking unfinished; that customer said Matt offered to come back and bill for time and material, then stopped responding, and that the repairs and painting cost an additional $1,500.

**Strengths:**
- Free return visit — a recent customer said Matt returned at 7 PM, no charge
- Service panel replacement — a recent customer said it was done quickly and neatly
- Tesla wall connector — a recent customer said he cleaned up after himself

**Concerns:**
- Added costs — a 2025 customer said a circuit replacement ran over $400
- Unfinished closet job — a 2024 customer said trim and drywall looked unfinished
