About Baker Electric & Sons in Bangor and surrounding areas
Master Electrician with Over 20 Years Serving Central Maine
Baker Electric & Sons is an Orono-based electrical contractor led by owner and Master Electrician Kevin Baker. For more than 20 years, the company has served residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout Bangor and surrounding areas, bringing technical expertise and hands-on experience to every electrical project.
When you work with Baker Electric & Sons, you're working directly with a Master Electrician who understands the full scope of electrical systems—from routine service calls to complex installations. Kevin Baker's credentials mean the work meets code requirements and safety standards, and his two decades of experience means he's encountered the range of electrical challenges that come with different property types and uses.
The company handles both the everyday electrical needs you'd expect from a local contractor—panel upgrades, circuit troubleshooting, lighting installations—and the larger projects that require detailed planning and execution. Whether it's a residential service upgrade, commercial tenant fit-out, or industrial equipment installation, the approach stays consistent: clear communication about what the work involves, reliable follow-through on timelines, and workmanship that prioritizes safety alongside functionality.
You won't find a rotating crew of subcontractors. The business operates with the kind of consistency that comes from owner involvement in every project, so the electrician diagnosing your issue or designing your system is the same person accountable for the outcome.

Baker Electric & Sons works across all three major electrical sectors, which means the technical knowledge base goes beyond what a strictly residential or commercial-only contractor typically develops. Residential projects might involve rewiring older homes, installing generators, or adding dedicated circuits for workshops and garages. Commercial work includes everything from office lighting systems to restaurant equipment installations. Industrial projects bring their own demands—three-phase power, motor controls, and equipment that can't afford downtime.
Central Maine's climate brings its own considerations for electrical work. Cold winters mean heating systems draw significant loads, and ice storms can knock out power for extended periods, making generator installations and whole-house backup systems practical investments. Seasonal temperature swings also affect outdoor electrical components, from service masts to exterior lighting, requiring materials and installation methods suited to freeze-thaw cycles.
Being based in Orono means Baker Electric & Sons serves the communities throughout Bangor and the surrounding areas—including Brewer, Old Town, Hampden, Hermon, Ellsworth, Belfast, and Bucksport. The local presence translates to familiarity with the area's mix of property types and the ability to respond when electrical issues need prompt attention.
