Hillsboro’s a growing city. Now home to over 111,000 residents, our city holds a unique mix of real estate. Shute Park and Downtown historic homes; rapid new expansions like South Hillsboro; the master-planned communities near Orenco Station. All of them add to the signature style and feel of ‘Silicon Forest.’ And all of them are dealing with their own unique electrical setups. Some homeowners are dealing with outdated panels, others are upgrading their homes to handle a brand new Level 2 EV charger.

Here’s some of the electrical services we offer our Hillsboro neighbors
The electrical panel’s where everything using power traces back to in your home. While the homes that give the area its character and charm are what makes Hillsboro what it is, they’re often operating with panels under 100 amps, often not getting updates for decades. That just doesn’t gel with our modern life, especially in a forward-thinking (and forward-moving) town like Hillsboro.
You’ll usually know when you need an electrical panel upgrade: flickering lights, frequent trips to the breaker, you’re adding a major appliance, or a home sale/permit pull. The reasons vary for every home, but they all need to upgrade. The team at Sky takes a look at what your electric panel’s able to handle, recommend a course of action, install a new electrical panel, and make sure everything’s up to code.
If your furnace is making noise, cycling too often, producing weak heat, or running up your energy bills, give us a call. Sky Heating techs repair all furnace makes and models (gas, electric, oil), and go through your options with you, whether that’s repair or replacement.
Oregon’s second on the list of states adopting EVs the most; over 119,000 electric vehicles officially registered across the state really tell the story. With the tech-forward workforce at the Intel campus and Nike HQ, Washington County’s a haven of EV-friendly drivers.
Homeowners will need a 240V circuit, which is the exact same high-powered delivery used by heavy appliances like a clothes dryer. With all that power comes excellent charging. You won’t be waiting hours (or overnight) for a usable charge. The crew at Sky will install Level 2 EV chargers and help you upgrade your panel if it’s not ready for the load.
PNW winters are always knocking out the power, and Hillsboro’s definitely not immune. Even if you’ve been here only a year, you know how violent winds here can get in Washington County. That’s why having a dependable generator for electric backup is a great idea. They protect your heating systems, refrigeration, medical equipment, and sump pumps, all of which are necessities.
Sky handles the generator installation in Hillsboro, OR, panel connection, and testing. We can help you install portable options, too.
Sky will help you install lighting in Hillsboro, OR, both interior and exterior. We do recessed lighting, ceiling fans, landscape lighting, security lighting, and even LED upgrades, too. Those offer energy savings over older fixtures, and it’s a no-brainer for those energy-conscious Hillsboro homeowners.
When the power does go out, when it comes back on, your electronics are at risk. You can’t depend on plug-in strips here; those can’t be a reliable protection against huge voltage spikes. That’s potentially thousands of dollars of equipment at risk.
Surge protectors, installed right at your electrical panel, protect HVAC systems, appliances, electronics all at once. It’s a relatively small investment to protect your large investment over the long-term. It’s also easy to add if we’re already helping you upgrade your panel.
Older Hillsboro homes (pre-1980s especially) often have wiring or outlets that just don’t meet Oregon’s electric code anymore, and likely haven’t for years. That presents a slew of safety risks, and can become a real sticking issue during remodels or when you’re trying to sell your home.
The Sky electricians in Hillsboro, OR, help you identify what’s out of code, what needs to come up to standard, and create a plan to update it.

Luckily, it’s not hard to tell. If you’re seeing a lot of flickering lights (that aren’t because of a dead or dying bulb), you’re making a lot of trips to the breaker to reset it, or if you’re looking to upgrade your home with an EV charger or new appliances. Sky can evaluate and give an honest recommendation for you.
Yes. An electrical permit is absolutely required for almost all major electrical work in Hillsboro. That includes panel upgrades, new circuits, EV charger installs. The crew at Sky Heating, AC, Plumbing & Electrical pulls all the necessary permits and makes sure everything’s above board.
A typical Level 2 EV charger install takes anywhere from 2 to 4 hours. That depends a lot on if your electrical panel’s able to handle the load from the first, so an upgrade might be in the cards. With an upgrade, the whole process will take longer, but we make it easy; we pull permits, and we give you a clear timeline so you’re not left guessing.
