Apprentice Electrician

Norway & Sons, Inc. traces its roots back to 1993 when brothers Scott and Jeff Norway, following in the footsteps of their father Bob Norway, a respected electrical contractor, founded the company. Originally based in a small space at the Wall Street Complex in their hometown of Barre, Vermont, the second-generation electricians quickly flourished. By 1999, the demand for their services had grown so significantly that they purchased and transformed the 1930 Garage at 393 North Main Street in Barre into a spacious office and warehouse. This new facility not only accommodated their expanding team but also enabled the addition of comprehensive design-build/CAD capabilities to their already comprehensive electrical contracting services. Today, Norway & Sons, Inc. stands as a testament to the Norway family's enduring commitment to hard work, quality craftsmanship, and the timely success of every project, thanks to its dedicated, long-term employees.
