Lighting services:
From the chandelier installation in a hard-to-reach area of the home to the popular pot light installation, we install and repair all types of light fixtures and switches. We specialize in residential lighting including kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, dining rooms, basements, home theatre and landscape lighting, as well as commercial lighting. We know what amount of light intensity is right for each room, the best placement of light fixtures and what types of lights work best together in your dwelling.
We are fans of LED light bulbs because that’s no longer the bulb of the future, it’s the bulb of choice of the present. LED lights last many years, emit and consume less energy resulting in long-term cost savings and less waste. Saving money and doing something good for the environment? Sounds like a no-brainer choice to us! LED lights are versatile in that they work well with the interior of the home or office as well as outdoors.

Electrical Panel Upgrade:
Some older homes either still have the outdated fuse box or a low amp electrical panel box. Unfortunately in today’s modern world with modern appliances, the old fuse box or service panel may not be able to handle the load. This risks your breaker constantly tripping, which causes a huge headache for all residents. It’s wise to invest in an electrical panel upgrade. In a typical home, particularly ones that have secondary suites, upgrading to a 200 amp panel should suffice to provide enough power without the breaker tripping. Even without an in-law suite, with typical large power-demanding appliances like the washer and dryer, dishwasher, furnace, hot water heater, and definitely if you add a not so common appliance like hot tub, then you’d be better off investing in an electrical panel upgrade. Feel free to contact our Sarnia electricians to perform some diagnostic tests and to assess if an electrical panel upgrade is warranted.
Electrical Wiring:
In older homes, you may also come across outdated wiring systems. If your house was built in the late 19th century to the first half of the 20th century, then you might have knob and tube wiring. From the 1960s to the late 1970s, there may be aluminum wiring in place. For both these wiring systems, particularly the knob and tube wiring, there’s an inherent fire hazard. Contact us to discuss what’s involved in knob and tube wiring replacement or aluminum wiring replacement and we can take care of the rest.
Whole House Surge Protection:
Most of us have heard of surge protection via outlets or power bars. Well, whole house surge protection adds another layer of protection, particularly if you high power-demanding equipment or devices sensitive to damage from power surges. Speak to us and we’ll educate you on the benefits and limitations of whole house surge protection.

Electrical Appliance Wiring:
Certain appliances are more involved than simply plugging in and voila, the appliance is good to go. If the proper electrical circuits aren’t in place, your local electricians in Sarnia will assess what is needed for proper functioning and install the appropriate outlets and circuits. Appliances such as the dishwasher, electric washer and dryer, and even a hot tub installation would require a specialized licensed electrical contractor to wire them properly.

Now that we’ve touched on a few of the services our licensed electricians in Sarnia provide, let’s talk about what to look for in an electrician.
- Must be licensed and insured - you’ll want a licensed electrical contractor to perform the electrical services because the ones who are not licensed may not be accountable to their errors should they me made, and there would be no safeguards to ensure that they rectify any mistakes made. Insurance provides another layer of guarantee so that if any incidental damage is made to your home or business as a result of the contractor's work, then the homeowner or business owner would not ultimately be responsible for the cost to fix it.
- Experience - now, this doesn’t mean that a journeyman electrician fresh off an apprenticeship is not capable of handling most if not all residential and/or commercial electrical work. However, their lack of years on the field should be reflected in their fees. A customer’s comfort with an experienced electrician, however, can be purely subjective rather than evidence-based. Having said that, no one would fault you for selecting an experienced master electrician for your project, especially if it is a complex one. It would also be wise to ask your electrician about their past experience in the electrical service you’re looking for.
- Honest, reliable and with good communication skills - you need to find an electrician who is upfront with the work involved and associated costs, someone who shows up on time for appointments, and someone who keeps the lines of communication option so you’re not left in the dark.
