Mike Ward Jr Electrician

One reviewer figured her family might spend the night in a hotel after the power went out with a two-week-old at home — instead, Mike Ward Jr. was there within twenty minutes and had it fixed inside the hour. That kind of turnaround shows up again and again. Ward has run his own electrical business out of Rockland, MA since 2011 (his site also claims 20 years in business, though the Better Business Bureau and LinkedIn both date the company itself to 2011 — about 15 years). He works the South Shore — Hingham, Hanover, Norwell, Scituate, Marshfield, Pembroke, Cohasset, Weymouth, Plymouth, and Kingston, by his own account — and it's owner-operated: whoever answers the phone is who shows up. The five-star reviews run deep: 184 of them on Google alone, and 112 total across five sources going back to 2021. The last six months haven't dented that pace — 18 reviews, all positive. What comes up most often is the same-day or next-day fix: a kitchen light that wouldn't stop flickering, a smoke detector rewired, a lighting problem tracked down and solved in one visit. One recent review credits him with tying a complex electrical hookup into a new septic-system installation, a crew showing up prepared and finishing it right the first time — about as close as the recent reviews get to a big-job story, alongside smaller fixes like an accent light repaired the same day it was noticed. Two things are worth a quick gut-check before booking. His years-in-business figure isn't consistent: his own site says 20 years, while the BBB and LinkedIn both date the company to 2011 — worth asking which one describes the crew that would actually show up. And an older, undated listing mentions a cancelled appointment that cost one customer a vacation day — the only negative note anywhere, and it doesn't show up among the many recent reviews, but it's worth flagging rather than pretending it isn't there. Ward reads like the call for everyday electrical trouble — a flickering circuit, a dead smoke detector, a new light fixture — with enough range to handle a heavier renovation tie-in when one comes up. Confirm scheduling expectations up front given that one dated complaint, but five years of steady five-star reviews across five separate platforms make a solid case for him.
