Electricians review in Port Coquitlam

11/01/2017

Update: The issue resurfaced and contacting Tyler was a bit of an issue. I often e-mail people as I work 9-5 but "phone is his preferred method of contact as he receives a lot of e-mails and is very busy" - his words. Again, very knowledgeable guy but not the kind of customer service I expect in this day and age.
--
Tyler is very personable and definitely knows his trade.
My issue was with the pricing: he did a testing on my electrical panel to look for issues on my heating system and nothing faulty was found - he did solve the problem by flicking the switches off and on, changed a light switch and an outlet. The cost.. $360.
Everything is working properly, don't get me wrong, but I later found a company that would do a similar test for free and charge me their hourly fee ($100) for changing of outlet/light switch.
I am grateful for Tyler taking the time to explain everything he was doing and give me tips and advice in other electrical areas in my apartment but I can't help the ill feeling at the end of the day, unfortunately.

Company Response: Thank you for your feed back and for taking the time to write the review. Trouble shooting electrical problems Is one of the most common services that we provide for our valued customers. In your case we investigated and solved four electrical issues as well as an inspection of your electrical panel (and found safety issues). The issues we solved for you are; baseboard heat in the bedroom, baseboard heat in the bathroom, 1/2 Receptical in living room was not working, and flickering lights in living room. We also supplied, installed, and will warranty a switch we supplied for your home. I also took the time to discuss the repairs that would be needed to fix the panel, and your heating concerns for the area you keep your dog. I even gave you some common sense solutions you could use that may not need any electrical work. When it comes to troubleshooting it is not the time it takes that is of value to the customer, but the experience of the electrician to solve the problems as efficiently as possible and to show care and concern for you your family and your home. I feel that you would not be as happy with the other company you called as you were with us. You may want to concider if they are members of the BBB, and or Home Stars contractor of the year and provide up front honest prices as we do. When comparing contractors it is important to compare apples to apples. I appreciate your business and enjoyed helping with your electrical needs. I hope apron thinking about the quality service I provided, you would consider using us again in the future.

Kitchen Remodel - Reception Re Location

Kitchen Planning & Renovation review in Anmore

05/24/2020

Tyler was amazing.
He was up front about costs and the quality of the finished product was top notch. He took the time to explain the costs before the project as well as what he was doing throughout, which goes a long way to putting ones mind at ease.
He went over and above and I could not be happier with his services.

**My Project:
Im renovating and needed some receptacles moved around in my kitchen and wanted to inquire about removing a pole which houses a switch and outlets.
He let me know about the costs for each project and why those costs would be associated.
This to me was such a breath of fresh air as throughout this remodel I have experienced another businessman who will just throw a number at you with no explanation as to how or why they got to that final number.

Tyler was in no specific order!
Transparent.
Fast.
Reliable.
Delivered Quality Work.
Friendly.
Professional.

Thank you.

Approximate cost of services:: $1,450.00

Pleasure to deal with

Tyler is a total pro. I was in an emergency situation involving a misunderstanding with BC Hydro and he not only handled the technical side but the people side. The value in his dealing with permits and inspectors goes a long way in limiting downtime and extra expense. Time estimates are accurate and keeps you well informed every step of the way with a written and easy to understand quote An absolute pleasure to deal with. Tyler even came well after business hours to wrap a few last connections up so we could restore power the same day. A+ rating from me.

Approximate cost of services:: $1,500.00

Company Response: Thank you for the great review. I was so happy that we could get power back to you and your family on the same day.

Prompt, courteous and straightforward service. On a week-end we had an emergency: not only it was sorted right away less than one hour after the call but the electrician made sure to explain what happened and how to avoid it and sort it in the future. Recommend the place highly!

Approximate cost of services:: $385.00

Company Response: Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

Outlet for laundry room

Kitchen Planning & Renovation review in Burnaby

06/26/2018

I need my outlet move closer to my washer, so i call Electric Avenue after hours. Someone else responded me earlier, then i book an appointment with that other electrician. That other electrician didnt show up, no call no text no reply，and the new washer delivery people have already arrived, i just dont know what to do. While i am very frustrated by the situation, Tyler called back, I told him i have to call him back later, the delivery guys are working on it. End up the delivery guys put an extension cord and left. I call Tyler back telling him i think its fix by an extension cord, and if i do move the machine an inch closer, the cord can actually reach the outlet, but its very tight. Tyler advised i should move the machine closer, dont use an extension cord, it will void my warranty. An hour later, Tyler call again, telling me to move the machine another inch closer, he is worried about the prongs will bent when the cords are too tight, which might cause issues. I really appreciate Tyler called again to ensure the safety of my home eventhough i didnt use his service, and all the good advices he provided. Very professional and recommended, if i do need any electrical services, Tyler will be my first option!

Approximate cost of services:: $0.00

Company Response: Hi Jerry, sometimes a client just needs some advice and this was one of those times. Even though I didn't make any money on this job. I am happy to help you with your electrical solution. I would rather be looked at as a trusted advisor then just another contractor trying to take your money. I am so happy that my advice was able to keep you and your family safe wile not costing you anything. This is good karma and the way business should be done. I hope to use this experience as a building block towards future potential.

Dream Kitchen, thanks Tyler

Tyler's guidance througout our kitchen reno was much appreciated. He helped us select an excellent LED lighting system. He wired up plugs and switches and lights etc in a timely and thorough manner over several visits during our reno. He gave us advice on other aspects of our reno that saved us time and money. He was the most helpful tradesman. Thanks a bunch Tyler.

Light switch repair

Electricians review in Coquitlam

08/04/2016

Outstanding service! Right from the first phone call, Tyler was polite, professional, and clearly explained his procedures. I phoned Tuesday. He was here Thursday. He fixed the problem quickly. He offered suggestions on other lighting issues in the house. And he was trustworthy. He never once tried to "sell" me on unnecessary work. I was seriously impressed. I will be referring him to anyone I know who needs an electrician. Thank you, Tyler!
