Wired right the first time — by the guy your neighbor already trusts.
Ayer Electrical Service is a referral-built trade quietly keeping the lights on across Kittery Point and the seacoast. Panels, service upgrades, generators, EV chargers, and old-house rewires — done clean, code-tight, and without the callback.
Referral-grown, not ad-driven
Every job is the next job's audition. That's the whole business model.
Old houses, new load
Salt air, knob-and-tube, undersized services — coastal Maine homes are our home turf.
You get the electrician, not a rep
The person who quotes it is the person who wires it. No hand-offs, no surprises.
Residential and light-commercial electrical work — done properly.
From a flickering circuit to a whole-home rewire, we handle the everyday and the ambitious. If it belongs to a licensed electrician, we probably do it.
Panel & service upgrades
100A to 200A upgrades, meter mast repairs, sub-panels, and clean, labeled load centers.
Standby generators
Automatic transfer switches and whole-home generator installs, plus service, load testing, and cutovers.
EV charger installs
Level 2 chargers, correctly sized circuits, tidy runs, and permit-tight installations for coastal garages and driveways.
Old-house rewires
Knob-and-tube retirement, cloth-wire replacement, grounded outlets throughout — done section by section so you can live in it.
Lighting design & installs
Recessed, cove, pendant, and porch lighting — including dimmer plans that actually make a room feel good at night.
Renovation & new-build wiring
Rough-ins, trim-outs, code sign-off, and the coordination with your builder that keeps the job moving.
Troubleshooting
The circuit that trips only in the rain. The mystery hum. The outlet that's warm. We find it and fix it.
Service calls
Fast, respectful visits for the small stuff — outlets, switches, ceiling fans, hardwired smoke detectors, hookups.
Light commercial
Shops, marinas, and small offices around the seacoast — power quality, sub-metering, and clean, safe installs.
Sample service list — we'll refine it to match exactly what you offer.
A quiet, orderly job — start to finish.
A referral is a promise. We keep it by being predictable, tidy, and communicative — the un-glamorous stuff most homeowners actually care about.
-
Talk it through
A phone call or a walk-through. We ask more questions than we answer, on purpose.
-
Clear written quote
Scope, materials, and a real timeline — nothing hidden in fine print.
-
Permit & schedule
Permits pulled, town inspection coordinated, and a start date you can plan around.
-
Clean install
Drop cloths, labeled wiring, straight runs. You'll want to open the panel just to look at it.
-
Walk-through & warranty
We show you every change, hand over documentation, and stand behind the work.
Home base: Kittery Point. Range: the whole seacoast.
We keep the truck local so we can be on-site the same week — often the same day for existing customers. If you're between the Piscataqua and the Ogunquit line, we're close.

Farther afield? Ask. Sometimes we say yes.
Built one job at a time — and one recommendation at a time.
"The best trades on the seacoast are the ones you only hear about because a neighbor mentioned them at a cookout. That's the standard we work to."
No billboards, no truck-wraps screaming across town. Ayer Electrical grew the old-fashioned way — good work, word passed along, phone rings again. This site exists so the next referral has somewhere to land.
Real customer quotes and photos from your recent jobs slot in here once we launch — everything you see is a preview.
