A father-and-son electrical shop that's been in Framingham since 1979, Motha Electric shows up in review after review for the same reason: Jeff, his dad, and a small crew — John, Steve, Ron among them — get called back by the same customers again and again. Jeff Motha's Massachusetts electrician license is active on the state registry, and the company handles residential and commercial electrical work across Middlesex and Norfolk County towns including Framingham, Natick, Newton, and Norwood. The range of jobs is wide: EV chargers and Tesla Wall Connectors, whole-house surge protectors, mini-split and heat-pump installs, 200-amp panel upgrades, generator hookups, and an old house from the 1800s where a previous owner's DIY work had left the wiring, in the words of one 2024 review, in a very concerning state. Commercial work shows up too — a 2025 review describes wiring up signage and power for a 9,000-square-foot fitness showroom on a quick turnaround. Google shows 147 ratings at a full 5★, and the last six months alone brought 18 more reviews with no negative ones among them. One account breaks from that current run. In a 2021 review, a customer said the company took a deposit, then went a month with little to no communication, leaving them thinking the job had been abandoned before it was finally finished about two months later. That's the one blemish in an otherwise long, heavily positive Google history, and it shows up as the reason Angi and HomeAdvisor's much smaller review counts (six each) sit lower, at 4.3★, than the 147-review Google average — worth keeping in mind if you're weighing platforms against each other, though nothing recent describes anything like it. For anything from a light-fixture swap to an EV charger, a panel upgrade, or rewiring an old house, Motha Electric's recent track record points to fast, communicative, licensed work; if you're doing a bigger project, get a clear check-in schedule in writing given that one older account of a communication gap.
“He solved an issue we had 2 other electricians look at but they didn't have a clue.”
“I had an outstanding experience working with Mot”
“I had an outstanding experience working with Motha Electric. Ron and son Jeff are a father-son business, with an excellent team behind them. They dedicated 2 days to updating the electric in a home we purchased.”
Love Motha electric, They are the best in all of Massachusetts I’ve used them for many, many years and have never been disappointed. They are reliable, Dependable and very fairly priced. I’ve gotten estimates from other electricians and they always are the least expensive and do the very best job.. Don’t hesitate to use them you will not be sorry!!!
Motha did outstanding work hanging light fixtures in our kitchen, dining room, and hallway. They paid close attention to detail to make sure everything was right and made sure it was done correctly. No project ends up being as simple as it sounds, and when we encountered some roadblocks that made the job more difficult, the Motha team called in reinforcements (Ron), carefully planned things out, clearly explained the changes, got my acceptance, and completed the work. The team also solved an issue we’d been having with our oven for years, and now it runs perfectly. We can’t thank Jeff, Steve, John, and Ron enough for the great work, excellent communication, and customer service. They will take great care of your home and I sincerely recommend them for your next project!
I had a Tesla Wall Connector and a whole-house surge protector installed by Motha Electric, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally. The installation quality was excellent, and the electrical inspection was completed and approved without any issues. I especially want to thank Jeff, who met with the inspector during the inspection, making the entire process smooth and worry-free. I also want to recognize Jeff and the office staff, especially Kirsty. Their communication was outstanding. Every time I had a question, I received a prompt, helpful, and friendly response. They kept me informed throughout the entire process and made everything easy to understand. It’s not often that you find a company that combines excellent workmanship with outstanding customer service, but Motha Electric certainly does. I am extremely satisfied with every aspect of my experience and would highly recommend Motha Electric to anyone looking for reliable, professional electrical services.
Jeff and his team at Motha were great to work with on our EV charger install. They’re professional, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process simple and stress-free. Everything went smoothly, and I really appreciated how helpful he was. I’d definitely recommend Motha to anyone needing EV charger installation.
We couldn’t be happier with Jeff and his crew, John and Steve. They were easy to work with, responsive, knowledgeable, and highly skilled in completing a wide range of projects — from installing a home standby generator and replacing our existing driveway lamp posts to adding soffit lighting, AC outlets, and a security camera system. Their attention to detail and commitment to doing things right really stood out. Hats off and a big thank-you to Motha Electric for the excellent work!
