A July customer describes McMackin Electric replacing light fixtures and switches, installing an outdoor motion light, and checking that everything worked before leaving. Another says Timothy McMackin installed a ceiling fan quickly and cleanly, with the fan running quietly afterward.

Its website advertises free estimates and 24/7 emergency service, and says the company is insured. Google shows a 5-star average from 18 ratings. Customers give specific examples of communication as well as the hands-on work. A July EV-charger customer says Tim provided a reasonable estimate, explained what installation would require, and helped make applying for a National Grid rebate easier.

A homeowner writing in March 2024 says Timothy explained an electrical problem and the steps he took to fix it. Several recent customers praise the price of the work. A June customer describes work on both a condo and a home as quick and fairly priced; a May customer says an emergency repair was handled responsively and at a reasonable price. Another May reviewer says Tim analyzed and repaired a solar-panel system after the original installer had been unresponsive, and that the system was running again. In a February 2026 review, a homeowner describes having a ceiling fan installed and outlets rewired. They say Tim responded promptly, scheduled the work, completed it quickly, and answered their questions.

Tim is experienced, highly efficient, & friendly. It's good to have him on board as my electrician.
We hired Tim to replace several light fixtures and switches, as well as install a new outdoor motion light. He was efficient, professional, and did excellent work. He completed everything neatly, and made sure everything was working properly before he left. His pricing was good, and the quality of his work was outstanding. We'd definitely hire Tim again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.
I had Timothy McMackin install a new ceiling fan in my home and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was very prompt on replying to my inquiry. The fan looks great, runs quietly, and the whole install was done quickly and cleanly. It’s refreshing to work with someone who takes pride in their craft. I’d absolutely hire him again.
Tim was very professional. He gave us a reasonable estimate and explained everything that needed to be done to install our EV charger. He even went out of his way to make it easy to apply for the National Grid rebate! Also, he was super sweet to our puppy😊
Wow. I can’t say enough about Tim. His communication, timeliness and thoroughness are amazing and VERY hard to come by especially in the service industry. I received a Google Drive with photos documenting the work done (this was after hours at my business) as well as a complete written report with action items and suggestions. I will be a repeat customer!
