Verified record
Primestar Construction Inc. is a Winthrop electrician โ the name says "Construction," but every published review and the company's own Thumbtack service list are about electrical work: panels, outlets, wiring, light fixtures, and recessed lighting. The company self-reports seven years in business. All five written reviews on file were posted in August and September 2021, and they describe a consistent kind of visit: an electrician who shows up on time, works through a list of tasks โ in one case swapping light switches and pulling a pool timer off the panel โ and leaves the space clean. In a 2021 review, a customer without much project knowledge said the crew guided them through a recessed-lighting job and cleaned up afterward. Thumbtack shows a 5.0-star rating across 11 ratings, all five stars. Thumbtack lists the company's Massachusetts Construction Supervisor license as verified, and shows a background check passed for Gustavo Silva as recently as March 2026 โ worth confirming is still current when you call, since the written review record itself stops in 2021. For straightforward electrical work โ fixture swaps, outlet repairs, panel work โ the reviews on file describe careful, on-time service with real attention to cleanup.
Very professional guys. I did not have much idea about my project and they guided me well and did an excellent job. They also cleaned up nicely after the work. Highly recommend these professionals for recessed lighting work.
All of the light fixtures in my house were replaced. The work was professional and done when promised. They left things neat and provided excellent value for the work they did. I highly recommend using them I will call them again anytime I need electrical work done.
Super responsive, highly skilled and efficient team. I had a laundry list of things that needed attention, from removing a pool timer from the panel to swapping out light switches. They showed up when they said that they would, then quickly and carefully went through the list. They left the area cleaner than when they arrived and walked me through everything that was done to be sure that I was satisfied with the result. I would contact them anytime that I have electrical work and would, without hesitation, recommend them to all of my friends and neighbors.
Arrived on time. Finished the works and cleaned up. Recommend to anyone who needs electric work done.
Arrived on time and fixed my outlet issue and placed a new outlet outside at a patio. Definately recommended for your electric wiring issue.
