Service, The electrical panel

September 28th, 2024 the power to my residence was down a good part of the day and it never came back on. I contacted Ottawa Hydro and got no response when it would be resolved.
As I previously had a conversation with Steve he advised me that the system wad down. No were to turn, I phoned Steve who then phoned his wife and was told the system was back on around 12:00 p.m. He had me take pictures to send to him. H quicky diagnosed the situation and walked me through. It worked fine. All the power came back on. Again thanks Steve for taking your time while you were doing some other work.

Recent Outside electrical service

Mr. Salter has performed multiple electrical services at my home including ceiling lights, service for an electrical fireplace, electrical car plug-in, and most recently an outdoor electrical switch for a waterfall.
He is a pleasant competent person with an excellent assistant and will schedule his attendance to a mutually acceptable time. I highly recommend him.

Fuse panel changeover; generlink installation.

Steve and his partner were very professional, courteous and accommodating. There were some unforeseen obstacles that came up in the job, due to our house being older and upgrades to the Electrical Code, and Steve was able to overcome all of them without problem and only a minor increase in cost. The job was done quickly and the work was excellent. Salter gave us a fair price for the work and came to our house a few times, prior to taking on the job, to answer questions. Thank you. SidMcL.

Internal wiring needed to be repaired.

I called and got the answer that he was heading home but would be at my place in ten minutes. Steve spotted the problem that others had missed within minutes. He really knows the trade and work efficiently and effectively. All work was completed under an hour. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing any electrical work done.

After friendly and efficient contact I was able to get a very timely appointment. The service provider was knowledgeable and experienced. He replaced a circuit breaker and verified box labelling in a matter of minutes. I would definitely recommend Salter Electric.

Multiple projects including fixture and fan installed, upgrades, trouble shooting

In addition to commercial projects, I use Salter Electric for household projects. Recently, they installed new fixtures, a fan, wall switches and fixed stray wiring. The work was done very fast, ontime arrival, and all rooms left clean.

Previously, they carried out audits of all my household wiring and sockets, finding many deficiencies and upgrading as needed. This was done at a reasonable cost. A must for older houses.
