Power to pool pump

Swimming Pools, Spas & Hot Tubs review in Barrie

Chris came and checked the circuit breaker and on/off switch (in the pool shed). Both were fine so he continued to investigate. It turned out to be a problem somewhere along the power line itself. He put in a whole new line and checked that everything was working properly before leaving. All this was done in two days: one afternoon to investigate and order the necessary equipment, and the next to do the installation. Chris also replaces four pot lights in the basement that were humming badly. The was right on time arriving both days and wasted no time getting on with the job. I found him very personable and easy to talk to. He explained everything very well.

Thanks for the great review! We hope you enjoy your pool this summer. The new dedicated circuit we ran will provide safe and reliable use! Also, the new pot lights in the basement looked great. We're glad we could help you with this electrical project.

Thanks for the great review, Greg! We're glad we could help with your renovation by upgrading your electrical service to 200 Amps. Breakers are a much more reliable and safer source to distribute energy throughout your house.

Let us know if you need any other electrical work moving forward. It would be a pleasure to work with you again!

Wasaga Beach

We happened upon Chris through our contractor to get a quote for pot lights, and were so impressed with is presentation, professionalism, knowledge and ability to anticipate what would work with and for our goals that we have had him replacing, moving, adding, updating, electrical all over the house.

Chris shows up on time, he comes prepared, always has the materials we need and then some. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris. He will definitely be back, we still have more work, and we still have not got to those pot lights yet.

Electrical repair and installation

Electricians review in Wasaga Beach

I had considerable electrical projects that Chris handled. Most of my switches were changed to smart. Overhead accent, track lights, ceiling fans, smoke detector were installed in addition to some re-wiring for new electrical outlets. I supplied the fans that were still in the box after 15 years. He added a kit to the fans for remote and Smart Control. Chris is efficient and quick to provide a solution. Definitely recommended and will have him back for some more projects.

Highly professional, responsive and affordable

Barrie

I was looking to upgrade the electrical panel. I contacted Chris from Encore Electric, he came to look at the place, and provided with a quote that was actually affordable! Chris worked with Alectra to coordinate the service date, showed up, did all the work, and passed the electrical inspection!
If you are looking to do any electrical job, I would highly recommend Chris, he is responsive, knowledgeable, and affordable.
