What We Do

Every electrical job
done right.

From a tripped switch to a full rewire. Domestic, commercial, EV chargers. If it needs an electrician, we sort it.

⚡

Domestic Rewiring

Full or partial rewires. We work around your house — one floor at a time if needed, so you're never left without power overnight.

🔌

Consumer Unit Upgrades

Old fuse board? We fit modern RCD-protected units. Usually done in a day. Safer home, lower insurance risk.

🔦

Fault Finding & Repairs

Trip switches, dead sockets, lights that flicker for no reason. We find it fast and fix it properly — not just reset it and hope.

🚗

EV Charger Installation

Home EV charger installed by a RECI registered electrician. SEAI grant eligible. We handle the grant paperwork ourselves.

🏢

Commercial Wiring

New office, shop, or fit-out. Clean installations with minimal disruption. All works certified and signed off properly.

🆘

Emergency Call-outs

Something failed at 9pm? Pick up the phone. Cork city and suburbs, same evening where possible. We don't leave you stuck.

About Us

Same person.
Every time.

I set up McCarthy Electrical in 2009 after years working for other contractors. I kept seeing the same pattern — electricians who were technically fine but a nightmare to deal with. No call backs. Left a mess. Charged more than the quote.

I went out on my own to do it differently. When you book McCarthy Electrical, you get me. Not a subcontractor, not someone from an agency. Me — the same person who answers the phone, quotes the job, and shows up to finish it.

RECI registered, fully insured, and working in Cork long enough to know every estate from Douglas to Glanmire. If I say I'll be there at 9, I'm there at 9.

★★★★★

"Our fuse board tripped on a Friday evening before a family weekend. Paul had it sorted by 8pm. Never thought I'd find someone that fast and that straightforward to deal with."

"Got three quotes for a rewire. Paul's was mid-range but he was the only one who came out to look before quoting. He knew exactly what was involved. No surprises on the day."

"Had an EV charger installed last month. Clean job, no mess left behind, and he sorted the SEAI grant paperwork himself. I didn't have to do a thing. Class service."
