Emergency Electrician for Portland Homes & Businesses
When you have a sparking outlet, a burning smell, a dead panel, or storm damage, you need an electrician now. Goodnow Electric provides 24/7 emergency electrical service to Portland and the rest of Cumberland County, with fast response and an experienced crew that makes the situation safe before it becomes a fire or a hazard.
Portland is Maine's largest city, and its housing stock runs from century-old peninsula triple-deckers on Munjoy Hill and the West End to new construction in Deering and along the waterfront. Goodnow Electric handles emergency electrical service for Portland homeowners and businesses every week, and we know how the city's older wiring, tight lots, and permitting through the Inspections Division all factor into a clean, code-compliant job.
We respond to emergencies across the West End, Munjoy Hill, and East Bayside and all of Portland — partial power outages, tripped mains that will not reset, damaged service masts after a storm, and outlets or panels that are hot to the touch. Call us and we will get to you fast and make it safe.

“After needing an emergency fix late on a cold winter's Sunday, Goodnow came to the rescue! With no power and dark approaching we called around and couldn't find any place that could help. When we gave Goodnow a call, Bret had one of his guys come over and help us out. David came over, checked things out, replaced some parts in our electrical box and we had light (and heat!!!) back again! So kind, helpful and a real life saver during emergencies!”

Emergency Electrician in Portland — FAQs
Do you offer 24/7 emergency electrician service in Portland?
Yes. Goodnow Electric provides round-the-clock emergency electrical service to Portland. If you have sparking, burning smells, or a dangerous outage, call us right away.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Sparking or hot outlets, burning smells, smoke, a panel that is warm to the touch, a main breaker that will not reset, and storm-damaged service equipment are all emergencies. When in doubt, call us — we will help you stay safe.
My power is partly out in Portland — is that you or the utility?
If your whole street is dark it is usually CMP, but a partial outage in just your Portland home often points to a problem on your side of the meter. We can diagnose it and restore power safely.
