We have worked with Mark and his team for over seven years on a wide range of electrical projects, including bathroom, kitchen, basement work, and generator installations. Throughout every project, Mark has demonstrated professionalism, reliability, clear communication, and exceptional attention to detail. He consistently takes pride in his workmanship and delivers high-quality results. Most importantly, he’s a great guy and is a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Mark and his team for projects of any size or complexity.
We have recently closed on a condo in Portsmouth which took about 4 years to complete. We met Mark who worked for Wakita Electric early on in project, and worked thru many different projects with him. His attention to detail goes above and beyond. He never missed a detail even helping me thru selecting wall plates , rockers, sconces, chandeliers, and my favorite project under counter lighting! We decided to add lighting under our beautiful quartzite, and Mark spent hours researching all different options, and found the most beautiful lighting possible! Mark worked thru so many obstacles, and end result was just breath taking! We have moved into a beautiful spot, and without Marks assistance, and meticulous workmanship our new home would not be as beautiful as it is today! He is now doing outside lights on our dock, and I can’t wait to post pictures of finished project! I know it will be amazing! We would give Mark Wakita Electric an 11 out of a possible 10!
Wakita has been great to work with through the years. Mark and his team are knowledgeable, friendly and always help me with my electrical needs.
I work with a number of electricians as an interior designer, and I simply can't overstate the high standards and commitment to excellence that Mark Carter, from Wakita Electric, showed during our recent work together. Mark demonstrated enduring patience on a particularly challenging project, paying attention to every detail, taking obvious pride in his work, and I really look forward to the next opportunity I have to work with him.
We have used Wakita Electric for years and can highly recommend their service. Totally competent, knowledgeable and professional. Always ready with options and alternatives and thoughtfully explained recommendations. We wouldn’t use any other electricians—they’re the BEST.
