Electrical Safety Inspections in Calgary
An inspection is the cheapest electrical work you will ever pay for, because it tells you which of the expensive work you actually need.

Who it’s for
A general home inspector will flag that a panel looks old — we’ll tell you what it will cost to deal with. If the house is from the 1960s or 70s and nobody has looked at the electrical in a decade, this is the sensible first step, and it may well conclude that everything is fine. Aluminium wiring, older panels and knob-and-tube all prompt questions at renewal, and businesses have obligations to tenants, staff or an insurer to consider.

What to expect
-
We inspect properly.
That means opening the panel and sampling devices, not walking past with a torch.
-
We explain what we found.
In order of what matters. Not everything on an inspection report is urgent, and we’ll tell you which items are.
-
You get it in writing.
With photographs.
-
You decide what happens next.
An inspection is not a sales visit. If nothing needs doing, we’ll tell you that and you’ll have it in writing.
INSPECT TODAY. A SAFER TOMORROW.
Questions we get asked
What’s the difference between this and a home inspection?
A home inspector covers the whole house at a general level. We cover the electrical system in depth, and we’re licensed to do the work if you want it done.
Will you find things just to sell me work?
No. If it’s fine, the report says so. We’d rather have a customer who trusts the report than one job.
My insurer is asking about my wiring. Can you help?
Yes. That’s a common reason people call, and we provide the documentation insurers want.
Do LED retrofits actually save money?
In a commercial building with older lighting, meaningfully — lighting is often the largest continuous electrical draw. In a house with a few remaining incandescent bulbs, less so. We’ll give you a realistic number rather than a brochure one.
How often should a home be inspected?
For an older home, every five to ten years is reasonable, and after any major renovation or a change of ownership.
YOUR SAFETY. OUR PRIORITY.
