Michael Walsh Electrical is a family-run electrical contractor based at 4 Oxfordshire Place in Mashpee, working across Cape Cod. The company's own website says it was established in 1988, though BBB records show a business start date of 1994; homeowners describe a father-and-son team, with Michael Walsh's son Matt handling much of the day-to-day work alongside him. Every review on file, six in total from 2023 through 2025, is five stars, and Google shows a matching 5-star average from seven ratings. Homeowners repeatedly credit the company with punctual, professional visits and clear communication - one 2023 reviewer noted that Matt "always conferred with me before he began the service," while another described a generator wired into an electrical panel and said they had relied on the company "for many projects thru the years." A 2025 review specifically praised the team for finding the most cost-effective way to resolve an electrical problem, and several reviewers mention referring friends and using the company repeatedly over multiple years. BBB lists the business with an A+ letter grade, though it also states plainly that the company is not a BBB Accredited Business - a status distinction worth understanding rather than a red flag. With only six reviews on file despite decades of claimed operation, homeowners considering a larger project may want to ask for recent references directly. For straightforward residential electrical work - generator installation, fire alarm systems, lighting and service upgrades - reviewers describe a reliable, communicative small operation worth calling, especially for repeat or referral-based work in the Mashpee and Cape Cod area.
excellent service. Michael and his son Matt provide timely, efficient and thorough electrical consultation and service. I have relied on them for many years. I especially appreciate their willingness to provide me with the most cost effective way to resolve my electrical problem.
A friend recommended Michael Walsh Electrical and it turned out to be the best experience we’ve ever had with any type of service call! Ever!!! Punctual, professional and amiable. He explained the problem and promptly fixed it. We were thrilled with the entire process—and now we have a dishwasher that actually works again! Thank you.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Matt, and I can’t say enough good things about him. Matt is not only responsive and smart, but also driven and genuinely a great person. It’s clear that being part of a family-owned business with generations of experience has given him a deep knowledge of his trade. What really sets Matt apart is his willingness to coordinate seamlessly with other contractors and share his expertise freely. His work ethic is second to none, and it’s evident that he leads by example, bringing the same energy and professionalism to his entire team. If you’re looking for an electrician who is reliable, easy to work with, and committed to doing the job right, Matt is your guy. Highly recommend!
We have hired Michael Walsh Electrician on many occasions. Matt always arrived on time and was very professional. He went above and beyond when it came to the services he provided. Always conferred with me before he began the service and took the time at the end of each service to explain what he did. He was always on time and cleaned everything up before he left our house. I highly recommend Michael Walsh Electrician. You will not be disappointed.
Had generator wired into panel. I’ve used Mike for many projects thru the years and given out his contact to many other people. He is very reliable and trustworthy.
