"We hired John to fix the electrical panel in our boathouse, and then again to upgrade all the lighting there, and then again, to replace the electrical panel in our new house. He came out right away, on time, fixed everything in each case, and was very reasonably priced for the work. He's now our go-to electrician."

"Murphy Family Electric is an awesome company with very competent technicians and reasonable rates. They make the whole process pretty straightforward. I had used them to get my Tesla charger in 2018 (Cost: $799 including material). I was so impressed with their work that when I had a complex electrical job - installing a new 120v outlet requiring a new wire from the circuit breaker - I did not get any quotes but just booked them. That job was done very professionally as well (Cost: $949). Fast forward to Mar 2025, my tesla charger had problems with over heating and intermittent power loss. I called Murphy Family Electric and they sent a technician the same day who came and adjusted/cleaned the connections and spent 30 mins fixing the problem. And to my surprise the company did not even charge me anything for this. So on top of everything else you can add absolutely fantastic customer service to their list of attributes."

"I highly recommend Paragon Electric. Clint, the owner, was very responsive with calls and texts prior to the service call, and was thorough and knowledgeable. He explained his analysis of the electrical problem beautifully, answered questions and utilized his time well within the service call period, which included a run to a local store for an atypical breaker. Thanks Clint!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Before beginning electrical work in Portland, verify permit requirements and schedule inspections early. Have your electrical panel and wiring assessed for safety, especially in older homes. Coordinate with other contractors if your project involves multiple trades. Review your home’s electrical load needs, and prepare for potential issues like outdated materials or limited access behind walls to keep your project on track.

Helpful?

Upgrading electrical systems in Portland can significantly enhance your home’s value and attract buyers seeking modern safety features. Improvements like whole-house rewiring, updated panels, and smart home integrations often reduce inspection concerns. Adding amenities such as EV charging stations or enhanced outdoor lighting can make your property stand out in Portland’s competitive and eco-conscious real estate market.

Helpful?

Combining electrical work with other home upgrades in Portland is efficient and can minimize disruption. For example, updating wiring during a kitchen remodel or adding circuits while improving insulation streamlines the process. Coordinating projects reduces the need for repeated wall repairs and can help you take advantage of local incentives, making your renovation smoother and more convenient overall.

Helpful?

When hiring electrical pros in Portland, prioritize those with proven experience in local homes, especially if your property is older or has unique features. Confirm they hold proper licensing and insurance, and ask about their familiarity with recent code changes. Look for strong references, clear communication, and expertise in energy-efficient solutions or smart home upgrades that suit Portland’s climate and housing styles.

Helpful?

In Portland, electrical contractors often specialize in areas such as residential rewiring, panel upgrades, and historic home restoration.
