Electrical work for Calgary homes.
Most of what we do in houses is the same handful of jobs: more capacity, a charger in the garage, old wiring made safe, or finding out why something stopped working. All of it permitted, all of it priced before we start.

Renovation wiring
Kitchens, basement developments and additions wired from rough-in through devices, coordinated with your other trades.
Rough-in, inspection, finish · Works off your drawings
Troubleshooting
A breaker that keeps tripping, half the outlets dead, lights that dim when the furnace kicks in. We find the actual cause.
Diagnostic fee applied to the repair

Questions homeowners ask
Do I need a permit for electrical work on my own house?
For anything beyond swapping a fixture or a device, yes. New circuits, panel work, service upgrades and renovation wiring all require a City of Calgary electrical permit. We pull it under our contractor licence, which means the liability and the inspection sit with us, not with you.
How much does a 200 amp panel upgrade cost in Calgary?
Most straightforward upgrades land in a predictable range once we know the service length, whether the mast and meter socket need replacing, and how many circuits move over. We quote a flat price after a short phone call or a few photos of the existing panel, and that price is what you pay.
Can my panel handle an EV charger?
Often yes, even on a 100 amp service, because the calculation that matters is your actual measured load rather than the sum of the breakers. We run the load calculation before quoting. If the panel genuinely cannot take it, we will tell you that instead of selling you a charger that trips.
Do you charge for a quote?
No. Quotes on planned work are free. Diagnostic visits — where the job is finding the fault — carry a fee, and that fee comes off the repair if you go ahead with us.
How fast can you get here?
Non-urgent bookings usually go out within a few days. Emergencies — no power, a burning smell, a breaker that will not reset — are dispatched around the clock at (825) 365-4709.
