A Plus Electric Motor Repair, Inc. repairs, rewinds and replaces industrial electric motors for refining, chemical and industrial plants in Whiting, Indiana. Whiting is home to one of the largest inland refineries in the country, and we serve the contractors and plants that support it.
Call us to schedule a pickup from your Whiting facility, or ship the motor to our St. Charles shop by freight. If a motor fails after hours, our 24-hour emergency line at (630) 283-8433 gets you a person, not a voicemail box.
