About
Founded in 1949, Waddell Electric Motor Service is Central Oregon's largest electric motor and pump repair facility, serving facility managers and operations teams across Eastern Oregon from two locations in Bend and Klamath Falls. For industrial plants, warehouses, municipal water systems, institutional campuses, and agricultural operations throughout the region, unplanned motor or pump failure translates directly to lost production and revenue — Waddell's rapid turnaround model is built specifically to minimize that downtime. Their in-house capabilities cover the full spectrum of rotating equipment service: motor rewinds from sub-fractional horsepower up to 400HP, complete motor overhauls, bearing replacement, pump seal service, and precision rotor balancing. An on-site machine shop handles custom fabrication and restoration work including spindle shafts, worn pump impellers, and motor bearing endframes — reducing the need to outsource components and keeping repair timelines tight. For facility managers overseeing industrial or warehouse operations, HVAC systems, pump stations, or process equipment, Waddell provides a single-source solution for electromechanical repair that keeps critical assets running to OEM specification. Technicians carry decades of combined experience, and the shop uses only replacement parts that meet or exceed original manufacturer specifications. With coverage extending from Prineville and Burns to The Dalles and Klamath Falls, Waddell serves as a reliable regional resource for operations teams that cannot afford extended equipment downtime. Whether managing a manufacturing facility in Bend, a pumping station in Klamath Falls, or institutional infrastructure across Central Oregon, Waddell Electric Motor Service delivers the shop capacity, technical depth, and geographic reach to support demanding commercial and industrial applications.
