About Us
We're the Crew Behind
Newman Electric
Family-owned and operated out of Vancouver, WA. We handle residential, commercial, and emergency electrical work across Clark and Cowlitz County.
Our Story
Started by Ryan Newman.
Built by the Whole Crew.
Ryan grew up in Vancouver, WA. He got into the electrical trade over a decade ago and spent years working under other contractors, learning the craft on everything from panel swaps to full commercial buildouts.
In 2020, he started Newman Electric. The idea was simple: do the work right, charge a fair price, and answer the phone when people call. That's still the idea.
Ryan still works jobs himself. He still takes emergency calls on nights and weekends. The company has grown, but he hasn't stepped away from the work. That matters, because it means the guy whose name is on the truck actually knows what's happening on your job.
Today the crew handles everything from outlet installs and EV chargers to full home rewires and commercial power distribution. Projects big or small, these guys can do them all.

What We Do
Residential. Commercial.
Emergency. All of It.
From a single outlet repair to a full commercial buildout, our crew handles every type of electrical work.

Panel upgrades, whole-home rewires, EV charger installs, lighting, kitchen and bathroom wiring, generators, and everything in between. We work on homes of all sizes across Clark and Cowlitz County.
Residential Services
Commercial Electrical
Tenant improvements, power distribution, data cabling, commercial lighting, and new construction wiring. We work with general contractors, property managers, and business owners across Southwest Washington.
Commercial Services24/7 Emergency Service
Breaker won't reset? Burning smell from an outlet? Lights out in the middle of the night? We take emergency calls 24/7, including weekends and holidays. Ryan has turned his truck around on the way home to handle a call. That's the kind of crew this is.

Projects Big and Small
Community
We Live Here Too
Newman Electric isn't just a business in Clark County. It's where we grew up, where our families are, and where our kids go to school. We sponsor local youth sports teams, show up for events like Dozer Days and community work fairs, and support the people who support us.
When you call us for a job, you're hiring your neighbors. We take that seriously.
And honestly? It makes the work better. We know the houses in these neighborhoods. We know what the weather does to outdoor panels in the Pacific Northwest. We know which permits Clark County needs and how long inspections take. That local knowledge saves you time and money.

The Team
The People You'll Actually Meet
Our customers don't talk about "Newman Electric" in reviews. They talk about Ryan, Roman, James, Garret. That's because you'll know the guys who show up, and they'll know your project.
Ryan Newman
Owner & Master Electrician
Vancouver native. Started Newman Electric in 2020 after a decade in the trade. He still works jobs, still takes emergency calls, and still answers the phone himself most of the time. Customers describe him as "responsive, knowledgeable and efficient."
Brandi Towner
Office Manager
She keeps the whole operation running. Scheduling, customer communication, administrative work, and keeping the crew in line. If you call the office, there's a good chance Brandi's the one making sure your project gets on the books and everything goes smoothly.
