Portland's Neighborhood Electricians

Our home base. Paramount Electric Co. has served Portland homes, restaurants, hotels, and commercial buildings since 2011.

Local knowledge, licensed work

Portland's building stock runs from 1900s Craftsman homes with knob-and-tube wiring to new mixed-use towers — and we work across all of it. We're familiar with City of Portland permitting, BDS inspections, and the realities of working in the central eastside, downtown cores, and close-in neighborhoods where parking, access, and occupied-building logistics matter as much as the electrical work itself.

Whether it's a commercial build-out, a panel upgrade, an EV charger, or a troubleshooting call, our Portland customers get the same crew standards as every Paramount project: permitted work, clean installs, and no surprises — backed by 15+ years in the trade.
