Residential Electrical for Westbrook Homes & Businesses
From a flickering circuit to a full remodel rewire, Goodnow Electric is the residential electrician Westbrook homeowners call when they want the job done right. We handle wiring, outlets, switches, lighting, troubleshooting, and code upgrades throughout Cumberland County, with the owner on-site for every job and a free written estimate up front.
From the mill-era duplexes near downtown Westbrook to 1970s ranches in Prides Corner, our residential work here spans every decade of wiring. As our home town, Westbrook is where we handle the most add-a-circuit, troubleshoot-a-dead-outlet, and remodel-rough-in calls — often the same week you call, since the shop is only minutes away on Wilson Drive.
We know the housing stock across Saccarappa Falls, the Presumpscot River corridor, and Rock Row and the rest of Westbrook — older homes with outdated wiring, additions that need new circuits, and kitchens and baths that need proper GFCI and AFCI protection. Whatever your home needs, we make it safe, clean, and code-compliant.

Residential Electrical in Westbrook — FAQs
Do you do small residential electrical jobs in Westbrook?
Yes. We handle everything from a single outlet or fixture to a whole-home rewire for Westbrook homeowners. No job is too small, and you get the same owner-on-site attention either way.

Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
Goodnow Electric is a locally owned, owner-operated shop based at 51 Wilson Dr, Westbrook, ME 04092 — not a franchise or a call-center dispatcher. When you book residential electrical work in Westbrook, you get a Maine Master Electrician on the job, not a rotating crew of subcontractors. Our work is performed under Maine Master Electrician license MS60021971, and we're fully licensed, bonded, and insured for every job we take in Cumberland County.
That means the person who quotes your Westbrook project is the same person accountable for the finished work — permits pulled, code followed, and the site left clean.
Getting to Know Westbrook
Westbrook grew up around the Presumpscot River, whose falls powered the S.D. Warren paper mill — for a stretch of the late 1800s the largest paper mill in the world, and the employer that shaped whole neighborhoods of worker housing that still line the streets today. The city is named for Colonel Thomas Westbrook, a colonial-era mast agent who harvested the king’s white pines along the river.
Today the old mill city is one of Southern Maine's fastest-changing communities, anchored by the Rock Row development rising out of a former quarry. Westbrook is also home base for Goodnow Electric — our shop is on Wilson Drive — so whether it's a mill-era two-family that needs a service upgrade or new construction off Larrabee Road, we're usually just minutes away.
