Bathroom pot lights & fan, exterior outlets

Steve was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and provided solid recommendations and solutions. He performed the work on time and on budget, and tidied up after completion. The new lights and fan are fabulous, and the workmanship exceeded our expectations.

new hydro hookup, potlights

It is a pleasure to give this team a solid 10. They are punctual, professional and very pleasant. They did excellent work and we would recommend them with no reservations. The potlights in our sunroom and kitchen are superior, less heat producing and more attractive than those previously installed by another company. Final bill was exactly quoted price.

Pot lights, electrical outlets & ceiling fans

We live in new home and needed to have pot lights installed in kitchen, living room and office and exterior. Basement required electrical outlets and ceiling fans for upper level. Salter Electric arrived on time and stayed within quoted price. Cheaper then what builder quoted. When holes were done for pot lights no patching was required. We have very high ceilings they had the proper equipment and installed fans with ease. I also requested some lighting ideas for oak curved staircase and Steve recommended small led lighting ..looks great and no tacky nightlights needed in hallways anymore. We still have some more little projects to be done and will use and recommend Salter Electric to family and friends again.

Misc electrical work

We had Salter come and do some electrical work in the home we recently moved to. We required additional outlets, switches and lighting. It was an excellent experience. The workers were very professional and on time each day. Being an old home, they were able to install switches and pot lights with such minimal holes it was truly amazing. I'm still amazed at how they were able to do these installations with such little mess and holes. Other quotes we received from other companies warned of the amount of holes needed and the mess that would be left. We made the right choice with Salter from the quotes we received. I would recommend Salter Electric, and will definitely use them in the future.

Installation Self-Regulating Heating Cables & Snow Switch Solution

I've used the services of Salter for over 15 years, and have never looked back. All the work performed across two different residences, including an inspection as part of purchasing my second home, were completed professionally and with attention to detail. I especially appreciated being informed of situations, where minor repairs to substandard work was done at minimum cost. Highly recommended.

Copper tailing electrical outlets

We needed this work done on a rental property. The technicians arrived close to the appointed time ( they were slightly delayed due to traffic - understandable). Work was completed on time and at the quoted price. The only issue I have is not with Salter but with the ESA inspection. These inspectors required us to be on site between 0800 and 1400. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that they will even show up. Very inconvenient. However Salter was great in advising us in a timely manner that the inspector would in fact not show up but that the certificate would still be issued. Speaks well of Salter's good reputation.

We take pride in our work, we know your time is important too. We understand the frustration with the ESA appointment but it is out of our control. Client should contact the ESA office to advise of their dis-appointment.

Devices coppertailed + other misc electrical work

After researching and obtaining other estimates, decided that Richard Salter Electric Ltd would be best suited to fulfill our electrical needs. In one full day, all aluminum devices in our home were coppertailed and other copper wiring was inspected. Additional electrical work was also completed, such as installation of GFCI plugs and extra plugs. The work was performed in a timely manner, with courtesy and great attention to detail. They arranged for an ESA inspection and this was duly carried out 2 days later, with a Certificate of Inspection issued. We are very happy with the work done and would not hesitate to recommend their services. We would definitely call on them should the need for additional electrical work be required.
