John came to the house within 24 hours, got all the parts and labor done in under 2 hours, He got the pool timer replaced, new bubbles to waterproof the cords and everything connected and working. I was able to get my pool running in under 24 hours for a fair price and prompt service! I couldn't have asked for better communication or service and will be using John for future projects! Thank you again! read more

Said we could set another appt......no resp. i then reached out one more time and was told could come by the next day and set a time. Well low and behold again........set day and time came and went. Every raves in other reviews that company is punctual HA. good luck. read more

I had a stripped light fixture in my basement and called John up yesterday and he came this morning and replaced the fixture without a problem. He is a nice, friendly guy too. Will hire him again for any electrical issues in my house. Thanks John!! read more

John and his worker arrived and had the job done in 40 minutes. His estimate was reasonable and the parts he bought were included in the price. Very pleased with the service and will call him again if I have electric work. read more

John Teheen is an awesome guy. He is great for the north shore. I had him come out to our building in medford. He showed up on time educated us on what we needed and told me how to be in the code for the update. I decided to use John. He showed up on time, get everything done on time and as promised. The best thing is John is also a car guy. read more

John Teheen Master Electrician - a truck parked in the snow - Electricians Near Me - Salem, Massachusetts

called John on a Thursday night and by 9 am Friday he was doing the job. I had an old electrical panel that couldn't handle the AC during a week long heatwave. It was a fire hazard and an emergency repair. John was very knowledgeable and honest with his quote. he got the job done fast and efficiently. john was very personable and explained everything he did. I highly recommend John Teheen and will use him again. read more

John is a true professional. He is responsive, trust worthy, and knowledgeable. He showed up on time, explained the problem and solution and wanted to make sure the house was up to code. He even wiped his shoes every time prior to entering in my house - I will hire John in the future! Thank you read more

Here is a quick rundown of how I found Teheen Electric: I hired a dirtbag electrician to checkout some lights that had gone out. He comes, spends a lot of time looking at the lights and says "I dont know whats wrong. I'll come back on Thursday with some special tools." Many thursdays and phone calls later he still never showed so I googled electrician and John Teheen was the only one to answer the phone. Here's how that went: John on the phone: Are you home now? I'm in Salem now. Want me to swing by and take a look? Five minutes later John and his assistant are there diagnosing the problem. Ten minutes later John figures it out. He has another job to do so he fixes one of the lights but he will need a new fixture for the other light. An hour later he comes back from his other job and installs the new fixture in under 10 minutes. All in all, from when I first pick up the phone to when he is all done less than two hours have gone by. I should have just called him in the first place!! John and crew are friendly, intelligent, prompt, and efficient. Oh and not dirtbags!! Highly recommended!! read more

I've hired John Teheen several times now. And still have never had a bad experience. I did hire another contractor to install some ceiling fans, as John was just too busy. The other contractor was good, but will continue to use John when I need more work done. read more

Arranged by phone for John to come and scope out a simple fixture installation. He set the day/time. We stayed home, waited. He never came, never called. Unprofessional. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Me and my family recently moved nearby and thought we'd try a new company and I suggest if you see this company name to run. The electrician that came to our house was exceptional and worked fast and efficient. But I over heard him get several phone calls from what I assume was his boss and could hear him yelling on the phone from the other room(he was not on speaker). He showed up to the job and was extremely UNPROFESSIONAL, loud, and smelled terrible. I told my friend about the innocent and she told me she had a similar issue but when he came out to do the first job he charged her a low price but when he came the second time he charged her triple the price for a much smaller job. My assumption is that he quoted her wrong the first time and wanted to make up for it with the second bill. Stay far away from John as he is completely unprofessional, untrustworthy in your home and with you money, and will smell up your own house. Unless you like getting robbed and having to deep cleaning your home when he leaves STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!! read more

We had Teheen quote for a job. He quoted a rather high price. We had a second electrician quote for the exact same job and got a number less than half that of Teheen. It turned out that much less work was needed than quoted by T. Hence, we cannot recommend Teheen. read more

John does great work. We needed some wiring done in our 200 year old home. I was worried that the older wiring would pose some problems but John was able to easily work with what we had and got the job done quickly and professionally. We'll definitely use him again. read more

Ive known John almost all my life and would know that i was in good hands if he was working in my house, or my car. Even being in the trades its hard to find quality people who do quality work. That is the primary reason why I recommend John. He's there when he says he's gonna be there. He sticks to his estimates, and his work is done properly to code. I give John 5 stars, and I consider myself a tough sell when it comes to tradesmen. read more

John did some work on our house removing knob and tube wiring years ago. When we had a question about an old wire in our basement YEARS later, we called him and he came right over free of charge and looked at it and ripped it out (it was inactive after all). Good work, friendly, trustworthy and reasonable. Definitely recommend and would use again! read more

Thoroughly recommend John and his team for excellent and professional electrical service. We got a few quotes and John's stood out as being the most thorough and detailed, giving us insight into exactly what we needed doing and what we might want done (with no pressure to do it...it was a sincere FYI for us). Very communicative, too, which was a real boon throughout as we knew what was going on and John always sought our feedback. Moreover, the work he and his team did looks great. Glad that we can say we have "our electrician" that we'll always use from hereon in. read more

Awesome Electrician. While in the middle of a DIY bathroom renovation project, we realized that the electrical work was beyond our ambition and looked for a local person who could help us with electrical work in our bathroom. I found John/ Teheen Electrical Services on Yelp and based on the reviews gave him a call. He was at my house within the next couple of days to assess the project. He gave us great counsel and we worked with his assistant to get the work scheduled for the following week. He was professional and focused on providing top quality work that was up to code. John and his crew were there on time, were professional, neat, and efficient. Although, we had a snag with a fan we had purchased, he wanted to be sure the work was done correctly and my home was safe, so we took the time to replace the fan unit and within a few hours the work was done. This was a fantastic experience and I would not only use John again but refer him to friends and family in the area. read more

John Teheen Electrical Service is great! John responded to my call and set up early morning appt. His assistant Andrew showed up on time and completed my small job cheerfully and efficiently. I highly recommend this company! read more

John responded within 24 hours of request for estimate and another 24 hours, he called with estimate. We agreed and he was hesitant about committing to a date and then just blew me off- I called and left messages 2 times. I never heard from him again. BAD BUSINESS! read more

If you are looking for an electrician on the North Shore- please consider calling john. He is prompt and - he answers his phone, unlike other electricians I had called around to. I have used him twice in less than a year- once for an emergency situation, and once for cosmetic reasons- both times, a true professional. I highly recommend him! read more

i found John's info here on Yelp and called him to install a ceiling fan. Not a big job and i was having trouble getting any other electricians to even call me back. John responded promptly and kept up good communication for scheduling. job was done quickly and professionally. both John and his assistant are professional and pleasant. i will definitely call John again when i need an electrician--highly recommended!! read more

I could not be happier with the service we received. John was timely, professional and very organized. He explained the problem with our main breaker in a way that made sense and offered follow up assistance if we needed any. His prices are outstanding for the quality of work that he performed. As a female customer I appreciated his respectful and courteous demeanor. I am recommending him to all my friends and family. read more

He may or no be very good. I called Wed AM and it is now Friday and no return phone call. I don't undestand why a call such as "I'm too busy" or something like that couldn't have been made. Where is the customer service? read more

I never got a chance to have services done. I had a scheduled appointment for adding outlets. Day of appointment, he called to tell me he couldnt make it and that he would go back to office to find another time to reschedule for the following week. The following week came and went without any more contact. I moved on to another contractor. read more

We went with Teheen Electric as we thought that a Master Electrician would do a Master job. We were very wrong. John provides very poor work and very poor supervision. John charges Master Electrician rates but sub-contracts the jobs and offers poor response and service. Outlets were installed at different levels on the same wall 3 feet apart. Side by side outlets were not level (different heights) and extra money was spent to repair the holes in the wall needed to correct the placement of the outlet boxes. We had to constantly request that the job be done correctly. Lights were installed without bulbs and extra work was done that we were told was due to code but in fact was just a mistake and there was no code. We were very displeased and contracted all other work to another electrician. read more

I called John Teheen because I was looking for an estimate on a kitchen remodel, he answered right away and came over and the following day gave us an estimate we could deal with. He made it sound like he was going to be doing the work and supervising his workers. He was a no show throughout thee whole job and when I called him when I had some concerns he wouldn't get back to me til the following day. His workers were sloppy in their workmanship. After several days of rain, they didn't wipe their muddy feet and tracked mud all over my house and rugs. When I asked them if they had any drop cloths they said his boss only carries one in each truck. I was flabbergasted at that concept. No wonder they couldn't cover up my floors and rugs. We had to clean up the floors every night and at the end of the job we had to call a carpet cleaner to clean our rugs. There work was also sloppy, switch boxes were at different heights, some of the low plugs looked like they were using already used plugs, because they were a little dirty and some even looked like they tried to wipe off the dirt with a wet rag or something because it left a mud streak on the white plug. Un-believable shoddy work. When I brought all this to John's attention he said he'd take care of it and he never did take care of it and it got to the point where he wouldn't call us back to rectify the problems. I suggest if your looking for an electrician.stay away from the smooth talkers because that's what John Teheen is, he reels you in with his smooth talk and talks a good game but he can't back it up and he's using sub-par workers to do his work for top dollar prices, Please look elsewhere and save yourself the headaches. read more
