Electrical upgrade and Additonal work

I am very pleased with the level of service provided. they are efficient, professional, and willing to explain everything needed for the job up front. Very reasonable rates, and prompt service and they are on time. Reliable, dependable service that I am pleased to recommend. They roughed in my kitchen in a couple of days, moved my breaker box and upgraded my electrical to meet all current standards and requirements. Clean and excellent service.

Hi Kristen, thanks for your kind words. Jaret and Aaron are real keepers for my company. They have all the qualities we expect from our installers. I guess that's why they have been with Redford Electric for so long. They take care of our customers and we take care of them.
Thank you so much for your business, and we will see you in the New Year to finish up.
Happy Holidays

Robert and Aaron, did all that an electrical service company should do and that we all should expect.
I called for estimate, Robert dropped by and did a thorough inspection and emailed me a detailed list and cost for work we discussed .
I approved the work and an appointment was made for installation.
Aaron the installer showed up on time, made some suggestions to have installation go smoother and worked around my schedule to complete the installation in a timely manner.
Electrical Inspections were passed 1st time, no hassles, and it seemed Redford Electric had a good working relationship and personal relationship with the Inspector and Municipality.
When given the bill there were no surprises, no additional charges that I had not approved.
On completion of the Project a follow up call was made to ensure all went well, and I am more than happy to give a glowing review to Robert Redford Electrical Services. They are an example how all Service companies should work.
Thanks Guys

I can’t say enough good things about Robert Redford Electric. Their electrician was on time, cheerful, and resourceful at coming up with other ways to accomplish what I needed. Their charge was quite reasonable for what I required done and everything was absolutely satisfactory. I would use them again in a flash.

Thanks Lynne, for the letter, our boys have been at this for a while and I would go as far as calling them wizards at some of the ingenius ways they assess and complete customers requests. The end result is a job well done and a happy customer that passes on her experience to others. Thank you so much for this note. I wish you and your family Happy Holidays and a prosperous New Year

Inspection and maintenance

Robert and his crew were prompt and courteous. Importantly they got the job done on time and everything was perfect.

I did really appreciate his ability to help me out right away as it did save me money on home insurance in the end.

Cheers,

Hi Marco, thanks very much for your kind words. Knob and Tube wiring and aluminum wiring, and Electrical Services are huge concerns for Insurance companies these days. We regularly receive calls from clients wanting us to deal with the Insurance companies concerns, as well as Home Inspector issues for pre and post home sales, such as your situation. Thanks for the koodo's to the boys I'll pass it on to them.
Wishing you and yours Happy Holidays
Cheers

Bunch of mini projects

My wife and I were originally introduced to Robert Redford Electric by our home inspector, Ted Gilmour (http://www.theco.ca/).

We had a bunch of mini-projects around our home - such as installing a surge protector, smoke/co2 detectors, programmable thermostats, various electrical wiring fixes to undue the previous owners mistakes etc.

Their staff was very professional, polite and did great work, at a reasonable cost. My contact with Robert was via email/phone and his original quote was bang on with no surprises.

My wife and I wouldn't hesitate to recomend Redford Electric to others and also wouldn't hesitate to hire them again for future electric related projects at our home.

200 amp service upgrade, electrical upgrade for kitchen renovation

Robert Redford Electric upgraded the service from 100 amp to 200 amp for our house. Robert was great at explaining in detail what would be involved and coordinating everything with BC Hydro and obtaining necessary permits and inspections. Aaron did a great job with the work, was friendly and professional. The work came in right at the budgeted estimate that Robert provided prior to the work.

Hi Kevin, Thanks so much for the Great review it is much appreciated.
We do our best to keep our customers informed on the ins and outs of the Projects they undertakes as there are usually alot of hidded costs associated, not only with Electrical but repairs as well after an installation. We have completed many Projects and we feel we have very good grasp on what each Project entails and the hidded costs which we pride ourselves in informing the customer so they get the whole picture.
Wow this is sounding like a sales pitch.
I would like to say thanks very much for the opportunity to work with you and Merry Xmas to you and Meaghan and the new addition.
1st Xmas right!!
Cheers

Home renovation

Robert's company did all the electrical work in our totally renovated apartment. They updated all the electric wires, potlights, cove ceiling, pendant, etc in a 25 year old apartment. They were very reliable and did a great job. They were always on time. He was very patient to answer all my questions and was always timely to return my calls. He was priced well compared to other companies. Of all the tradespeople I used, Robert's company was the best, I had a very good experience with them. I'd highly recommend them to anyone.

trouble shoot and repair circuit issue

Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

On October 5th your man came & took care of various electrical concerns in my home in Cloverdale. He was friendly, professional & knowledgeable. I was actually somewhat amazed at how quickly he troubleshot a tricky problem with a dead circuit in my bathroom & hallway. There was actually a loose wire in behind a wall plug in a bedroom where everything was working well but it somehow affected the other areas. He did other work as well including quickly fixing my inoperative central vac plug, rewiring my bathroom fan, adding several wall switches, etc. Numerous picky little things that simply take time & knowledge. Everything was done very satisfactuly.

I mentioned to your man that I had previously called a different electrical company from the yellow pages. They came to my home & before even looking at anything said there would be a "call out charge" just for showing up. Then they said there will be an additional $275.00 "diagnostics charge" to try to find the problem in my bathroom/hall. If the diagnostics took over 2 hours there would be further "extended diagnostics" charges. But if they found the problem in 10 minutes, the $275.00 charge would stand. This diagnostic charge did not include addressing the concern or fixing anything, just trying to find the problem. Actually fixing anything would be over & above. I politely sent this serviceman on his way. He said he'd still have to bill me for the call out charge.

Your company had no call out charge or diagnostic charges or any other silly charges except for the actual work done. Your man knew what he was doing & worked quickly & efficiently. He was well equipped with everything he needed & even brought his own hand broom & dust pan to leave my home clean afterwards.

I noticed a few days later that the bathroom fan stopped working. The same fan where your guy had rewired the switch. I called your company & you cheerfully dispatched a 2nd man to investigate. He quickly diagnosed a broken wire above the fan which he repaired. He left without charge.

It is always a pleasure in this day & age to be fully satisfied with a company's service. Just thought I'd pass on this note of thanks. I will certainly recommend your services to any one I come across.

Thank you,
Steve Groth

Thanks Steve for the review, "If I may" a note to consumers regarding the $35.00 service call. There is no such thing and I guarantee the hidden charges are double that of any conscientous contractor.
That being said we aim to please and I am tickled that you have spent the time to tell it like it is. I'll pass the koodos along to my installers and staff. It's nice to get recognition for a job well done no matter how small.
sincerely
