Macombers' Electricians

Macombers' Electricians has been fixing electrical problems in Marblehead since 1951, the company says, a family business now run by a third generation out of its Village Street address. It's built for the resident calling because something in an older house has stopped working, not a large commercial contractor. On Google it holds 4.3 out of 5 across 13 ratings, and the seven written reviews on file since 2023 don't include a single negative one. A resident who called this June wrote that the crew "always solves every electrical challenge this old house dishes out" and described them as courteous, knowledgeable, and fair — a version of the same story that's turned up over the years across BestProsInTown, LocalityBiz, and a scattering of other local directories: steady praise for knowing the trade and charging reasonably. The public record is still thin, though. Thirteen Google ratings and a handful of directory mentions isn't much to lean on, and the business also shows up on BuildZoom under the owner's name, Richard K Macomber, rather than Macombers' Electricians, which is worth knowing if you go looking for it under the company name. D&B dates the company's founding to 1974, which doesn't square with the 1951 start the business itself claims — a detail worth asking about if the history matters to you. For routine residential electrical work in Marblehead — troubleshooting, wiring, an EV charger install — everything on record so far is clean. Just go in knowing there isn't a deep public review history behind it yet.
