On the coast for 80 years

Ben Reese was from Bandon. He started as an electrician in 1936, wiring the tent city for families who lost their homes in the Bandon fire. In 1946 Ben and Viola Reese opened Reese Electric. The company has been in North Bend since 1948.

George and Sharen Reese ran the company from 1976. In 2005 it bought Yockey Electric of Bandon, which is our Bandon shop today. The owners have changed over the years. The Reese Electric name has stayed.

What customers say

Google reviews, word for word.

They were wonderful! They were a super nice and updated all of our outlets on the day of inquiry. They even vacuumed up any bits that needed to be cleaned before they left. Something I have never had with any type of maintenance crew member! Thank you so much for being respectful to my house! They also explained everything in layman's terms so I could understand what was happening.

100% recommend!

Shane was great! He replaced my Electrical Panel that was old in one day and kept me updated via text. Reese Electric was fantastic. Thank you.

Craig Google review, Bandon shop

Got lucky and they were able to come out on the same day within an hour of my call to them. They fixed my electrical issue quickly. Thank you very much!
