History

 Turbiville Electric was started in 1952 by Albert and Alice Turbiville to serve industrial and agricultural customers with electric motor repair. The business has grown over the years with several building additions and by expanding into the property next door.  Paul Turbiville worked in the shop and at other motor shops, and after receiving his mechanical engineering degree in 1981 the business was passed on to him.
