About Us

Old Fashioned Values....Cutting Edge Technology Family Owned Since 1945

Parkin Electric - Servicing Home, Business, and Industry electrical needs, is very proud of the fact that today we have the third and fourth generations working together in the company. Our family is not just limited to blood, as we genuinely believe in maintaining a ?family? atmosphere with all of our employees. We do take our work very seriously, but also strongly believe that having a relaxed and enjoyable place to work, greatly increases the productivity of our people.

Thomas Parkin founded what is now Parkin Electric in 1945. He originally started business in Madras, Oregon and then moved the company to Portland. In 1968 the company was passed to Tom?s son Harry, who ran the company until he in turn passed the reigns to his son Dave (third generation), and wife Maureen in 1990. In 2001 Dave and Maureen moved the company to it?s present location in Oregon City, Oregon.

Our company has always believed in developing strong relationships with our employees, our vendors, and of course with our customers. Because of this, almost all of our work comes from repeat customers and referrals.

We look forward to developing a relationship with YOU!

Dave, Wade, Maureen Parkin and the Crew at Parkin Electric
