Martel Power & Light is a Seacoast electrical shop whose website pitches electrical projects and problems at homes and businesses alike. The company says it has been in business 22 years, and its stated service area runs from Portsmouth, Rye and New Castle out to Dover, Durham, Kittery and York. On Google it holds 5 stars from 19 ratings. A 2024 customer said Bill Martel ran the electrical work for their home renovation, including an electric vehicle charger he installed and then took time to explain how to use and maintain. A 2024 reviewer wrote that Bill installed a car charger in their garage at a fair price and got it done quickly after they agreed to his quote. In a 2023 review, a customer said Bill was available the next day to install a new garage outlet for their car charger, and lowered his quoted price when the job went quicker than expected. Smaller calls get the same treatment. A 2025 customer said Bill stopped by the same day for a kitchen light fix, then offered lighting suggestions after the repair, and called the price reasonable. A 2024 reviewer said he came in, diagnosed the problem and replaced what needed to be done. A 2023 customer wrote that Bill had fit them in last minute multiple times and worked through their electrical punch list.

Bill was super helpful and easy to work with during the opening of my boutique. I will be using him for all my electrician needs and highly recommend him!
Bill is incredibly communicative, responsive, quick, and kind! My first time contacting Bill he was able to stop by same day for a quick kitchen light fix. He was fast and efficient and although a very small job, the quality of work was fantastic. He also helped out with lighting suggestions and recommendations after the repair which was super helpful! I would definitely call him again for any electrical concerns. Very nice person and reasonably priced as well. Thanks a million, Bill!
Highly Recommended! Quick response, very professional and knowledgeable. A quick fix and price was with great!
