## The honest read

A recent customer said Matt replaced a ceiling fan that no longer worked, a challenging job because the ceiling is vaulted. Faulty wiring in a master bathroom was the job for one recent customer, who said Matt replaced it. A recent customer said Matt answered an inquiry within 24 hours and gave a very reasonable estimate.

Matthew Morgan Bowen holds an active Maine electrician licence, number MS60021597, on the state registry.

A 2025 customer wrote that Matt answered an emergent call on a Sunday and had the power back on within an hour. In a 2022 review, a customer described an emergency service disconnect on the meter box that kept tripping and was very hot to the touch; that customer said Matt the owner picked up immediately and fixed the problem quickly. A 2025 customer said three overhead lights in a double wide trailer had been out for almost two years before Matt set a date, showed up on time and had the problem diagnosed and fixed in less than 3 hours.

A 2025 reviewer described a full electrical panel replacement at their mother's home in Old Town, with the main electric meter brought up to modern code, and said they hired him again for a service upgrade at another location. A 2025 customer said Matt replaced several outlets and an emergency shut off switch and installed a whole house surge protector. In a 2023 review, a customer said they installed an electric vehicle charger at the house and a generator receptacle at both the house and camp. A 2023 customer, unsure whether a kitchen needed a whole electric upgrade, said Matt showed it was just the appliance and did a smaller upgrade that fixed the problem. A 2024 Reddit commenter wrote: "North woods electric did mine. Nice guy, used to work for Central Maine Power systems doing Generac installs."

A 2022 customer said Matt fixed one of their lights on a first visit, but on the second removed the light and undid the wall switch without finding the problem, leaving an uncovered switch, no ceiling cover and no light in the room. A 2024 customer wrote of being very disappointed in his communication and said they had been lied to over and over.

**Strengths:**
- Emergency calls — a 2025 customer said power was back within an hour
- Vaulted ceiling fan — a recent customer said Matt replaced a fan that no longer worked
- A quick estimate — a recent customer said Matt answered within 24 hours
- Panel replacement — a 2025 customer described a full panel replacement in Old Town

**Concerns:**
- An unfinished light repair — a 2022 customer said a switch was left uncovered
- Communication complaint — a 2024 customer said they were lied to over and over
