Our History

Roy's is and has always been a family-owned business, dating all the way back to 1948! The business now employs the fourth generation of the Roy family. Roy's was originally opened by Joseph B. Roy, Sr. who passed the business to his son James R. Roy, Sr.  It was later passed down to James R. Roy, Jr. whose daughter, Hannah, works alongside him. At Roy's Electrical Service, Inc. you can find assistance with all things electrical generators & motors. From minor to major repairs and even replacements. 

The ATS is a switch that is connected to your home and your generator. If at any time your home loses power, your ATS will engage the generator to begin running. This is to insure you NEVER lose power!

What is a motor?

Electric motors are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, usually in the form of rotational motion. In simple terms, they are devices that use electric power to generate motive power.

A generator is usually permanently installed and connects to your home or building providing backup power during a power outage. Or get power on the go with a Portable Generator!
