Replacing light fixture

We were selling our house and needed a light fixture replaced.My husband started to do it himself but realized that it had not been installed well before. We called Vancity and someone came promptly and very quickly solved the problem. This is the second time we've used this company.

Commercial Lighting

The service from Van City was excellent. Cory replied to my call promptly. Their electrician (forgot his name) was pleasant and helpful. He arranged for the scissor lift as the lights are high in a warehouse. He worked efficiently didn't leave a mess and was customer focused. I would highly recommend them.

Misc small electrical projects

I had a few small projects: A run of lights was not working, my oven was not working, a ceiling fan to install, and a couple of other small things. Cory was great - he was pleasant to deal with and even gave me instructions on how to use my multimeter. He diagnosed the problems with the lights and the oven, and although he did not have the right parts to install, he helped me buy them online and gave me good instructions on how to install them myself. My only problem is that I did not look at the list of things I wanted done and forgot to mention one item. As the first hour charge is much higher to factor in travel time etc., it is expensive to get a very small job done alone. My recommendation is you make a list of the things required, and look then look at it. I am sure you will be happy with Cory's work.

Variety of electrical jobs for a newly purchased older home

The Home Inspector report for our newly purchased home indicated a number of potential electrical hazards to be re-mediated. Vancity Electric evaluated the hazards, and in each case and educated me on the city codes, the severity of the hazards, the options to address the hazards, and the associated costs - in each case I felt I received all of the information required to make an informed decision. Once I decided on what needed to be done, Vancity Electric performed each of the jobs professionally and efficiently.

$300.00

Installation of electrical for Heat pump installation.

Vancity Electric was contacted on short notice to install the electric service to a dual Heat Pump installation. They showed up on time with all the required material. Their employes were punctual, pleasant and very professional. They completed the job with no mess, well within the time constraints and on budget. Thank you, I now have a much more comfortable and happy wife!

Our specialties would be the attitude towards the client. There are lots of companies that can do electrical work but there are some very simple things being forgotten in our industry like showing up on time, cleaning up at the end of the day or calling people back. We are also very into the latest tech and products. There are some very new products on the market that can really enhance a job or save the client some money in a pinch. It helps when your electrician knows about these products. Aside from these we also like doing tel, cable, internet, home audio.
