About Us
Our story began in 1975, when Stephen Stanley set out to serve the homes and businesses of Mount Desert Island with quality electrical work and a community spirit. (Rumor has it he arrived at his first jobsite in his chevy C-10 and bell bottoms—while we can’t confirm, it certainly fits the era!)
Fast forward 50 years(!) later to 2025, and Stanley Electric has entered an exciting new chapter under the leadership of Jason Bird. Today, we blend decades of trusted service with fresh energy and a renewed commitment to delivering exceptional residential and commercial electrical services across Mount Desert Island and Downeast Maine. Our experienced team of electricians is focused on precision, professionalism, and dependable results — strengthening our roots in Hancock County while continuing to raise the standard for quality electrical work in the communities we proudly serve.
