Small Electrical Problem

After a disastrous experience with another electrican I found these guys here. They were professional but friendly even though it was obviously a small job. He quoted $150 for 1 hour and thought it should be done within that time but couldn't guarantee it. Jessica arrived on time and clean (important to me) She rocked. She methodically went through all the things it could be and then she discovered that the light bulbs I replaced the old ones that had burnt out with were the wrong ones. She did this within the hour and even put in the right ones. I shall use no other.

electrical wiring and appliance installation

My daughter and I have called on VanCity Electric several times for work in our homes. Jessica and Cody have done excellent work - ranging from pulling wire from the electrical panel to install new baseboard heaters in an old home (not an easy job), to rewiring an apartment kitchen, supplying and installingn pot lights and a smoke alarm, and other general work. I ask all my friends and family if they need electrical work just so that I can recommend this company. Their work is outstanding and so is their attitude. Great customer service. Great technical work.

basement renovation and knob and tube removal

Cory and his team were always friendly, professional, and on time! We were very happy with their work and how clean they left the place at the end of the day. Also, we really appreciated Cory's patience with our many questions. Other contractors we have worked with showed annoyance but Cory had no problem walking us through every detail and was also patient when we changed some plans with potlights in the middle of the job. Would definitley recommend Vancity Electric!

I am a West Vancouver designer and Cory (co-owner) of the Vancity Electric is by far the best electrician I have ever worked with. His disposition is extremely pleasant, he is a perfectionist and knows his trade inside out!

Great crew, excellent workmanship and absolute professionalism

Vancity Electric continues to wow me!

They have become our house electricians when it comes to repairs, installs and additions. Cory and Geoff have put together a great crew that is ready and willing to tackle any job, big or small. The work itself is nothing short of perfection and the professionalism is second to none.

In addition to work around the shop, Cory has also done work on my own home, installing a set of pot lights and LED bulbs in my kitchen, replacing an outdated fluorescent fixture. It looks absolutely fantastic!

I would gladly recommend Vancity Electric to any and all of my friends and family as i'm positive they would not be disappointed.

A huge thanks to the crew of Vancity Electric!

Bathroom renovation and garage work

We have had Cory and his team from Vancity Electric come in twice to do work for us. They did a fantastic job both times. Cory and his staff are professional, polite, reliable, and always leave the work site clean. We will be calling them for any future work we need done, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great electrician. Thanks Cory!

Electrical rewiring

Vancity Electric is by far the best and most professional electrical company we've ever worked with. We're doing some rewiring and installing of new fixtures in our heritage home, and our concern of course is that we maintain the integrity of the original walls and structure. Corey himself has done the bulk of the work, and we can't be more pleased. Very helpful and knowledgeable. The quality is beyond reproach, and we can't really say enough good things about timeliness and effective communication throughout the whole process. Highly recommended.
