Mike Ward Jr Electrician works out of Rockland, handling residential electrical jobs across the South Shore — everything from a flickering kitchen light to a full rewire of a house dating to the early 1700s. Google shows a 5-star average from 184 ratings, and the written reviews back that up: not one of them raises a complaint, an unusually clean run for a business with well over a hundred reviews. Speed is the recurring theme. Customers describe same-day and next-day visits for urgent problems — a smoke detector wired wrong, lights flickering in a kitchen, a 200-amp panel with three subpanels that had already tripped once and run hot. When storms have knocked out power, reviewers say he's shown up fast too: one homeowner described a fallen tree tearing the electrical mast off the house on a holiday and getting help quickly despite the timing, and another had wires down after a storm and got them repaired the same day after a different electrician had left them waiting. He also gets credit for talking customers through the work as he goes — several reviews mention detailed, step-by-step explanations. The work itself ranges from simple fixture swaps and ceiling fans to bigger jobs: wiring for additions and basement remodels, mapping outlets and recessed lighting for a full renovation, and troubleshooting a 240-volt outlet and breaker feeding an EV charger. Several reviewers mention hiring him more than once and calling him their default for anything electrical. Nothing here gives a homeowner reason for pause — no unresolved complaints, no scheduling problems worth flagging. The one thing to keep in mind: Mike sometimes brings a small crew on bigger jobs, so scheduling may move around his own availability rather than a larger company's bench of technicians.
Mike was professional, responsive and reasonably priced. Had a couple minor issues (i.e. lights flickering/shutting off in kitchen etc.). Mike came out next day and quickly resolved the issue. Local to Rockland. Would recommend.
Fast service. Called them with a smoke detector issue. They quickly resolved the problem with the wiring.
Two words--Hire Him. Mike Ward expertly handled a complex electrical job that was part of a new septic system installation. He and his crew came fully prepared and the project was completed perfectly the first time. Kudos. Oh, one more thing. I had an accent light in the front of the house that had gotten dull. I figured it need replacing, so I called Mike. It is a small job for him, but still he came the same day I texted him and, after some tinkering, the light came back on full volume! He genuinely has the magic-electrical touch.
Highly recommend Mike Ward for any electrical services you may need. He was responsive and communicative before the appointment and was upfront about his schedule and timing. We enjoyed having him work on our home and our garage and will certainly be recommending him on the South Shore and using him again if we need any electrical help. Thank you, Mike!
Great to work with! Highly recommend for whatever job you need done.
