Verified record
Serviceman Electric, doing business as A Serviceman Electric, is a South Boston, MA outfit run by Thomas Mccarthy, who Thumbtack lists as background-checked and states has 41 years in the trade. Its only written record is three Thumbtack reviews from 2022. Two are straightforwardly positive: one customer called the work timely and professional and said they'd recommend "Tom" to friends, another cited good work at a good price. The third is different in kind -- a customer said nobody from the company ever contacted them or showed up for a scheduled appointment, and the review is specifically about that no-show rather than any work performed. With just three reviews on file, ask directly about current scheduling reliability before booking, and confirm the appointment closer to the date.
Great work, at a good price, and a Professional attitude!
N/A since we were never contacted or anyone came for the scheduled appointment so this review is for the no follow up and not their work.
They were very professional and work was done in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Tom to my friends.
