Electrical Repair & Installation on outlets, range hood, and chandelier

We had Scott over to diagnose and repair a few outlets (as well as our range hood) that weren’t working and to install a chandelier light in a foyer of ours. He responded quickly to our phone call to him and he did a get great job with the work. He also came over during hours that fit our schedule. I’d definitely use Gord’s Electric again.

Electrical Panel Upgrade

Based on a referral from our neighbour we hired Gord’s Electric to upgrade the main electrical panel in our home and we were definitely not disappointed. The quote Scott provided was reasonable and we immediately felt comfortable because of the his friendly, yet professional approach. We were also readily impressed with Scott’s expertise and experience so it did not take long for him to gain our trust. He took the time to describe what had to be done and we also appreciated the money Scott saved us with his instructions on how to properly prepare the walls for the new panel installation ourselves. Scott was exceedingly particular and thorough, leaving nothing to chance. He visited our house several times prior to the installation, checked and double-checked everything to make sure that this major upgrade would go as smooth and unobtrusive as possible. Thanks to Scott we even managed to keep our two home-based businesses operational amidst this major conversion. We would gladly refer Gord’s Electric to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy electrician who prides himself on providing first class workmanship.

Thanks for taking time to post, Mike. I felt that the job went very smoothly, and am glad that we were able to keep both businesses running. I'm sure it's a relief to get rid of the tired old fuse panel, and sub-panels, and replace them with something safer, and more reliable. Hoping that the outdoor seasonal lighting problems are also resolved, as well.

Replaced our baseboard and wall heaters, our outside lights and outlets and thermostats. He also did extensive work on our fuse panel.

Scott was very thorough and did an excellent job of upgrading our home's electrical system. He carefully explained what he was doing and always asked for our opinions when choices of equipment were necessary. He is an excellent electrician and we will be sure to call him again the next time we need electrical work done on our home.

2 New receptacles in garage for new garage openers, fix 2 other receptacles in the house, install cx purchased light fixtures and remove live wire that had no use/wasn't being used

Scott from Gord's Electric came when we needed new receptacles installed in the garage for new garage openers and fixed all the other things that needed fixing around the house. He also installed some new light fixtures for us and he removed a live wire that could be a fire hazard. We were very pleased with his knowledge, professionalism and workmanship, as well as with how personable he is. If we need any further electrical work, we'll be calling Scott at Gord's Electric.

Repair, Service line point of attachment

I called Scott on a Sunday to look at a service line point of attachment which was hanging onto my house by 2 nails. (About to fall off!) Scott called me back within an hour of me leaving a message and came out the same day to have a look and to start making plans. Over the next short while, Scott arranged the ESA inspection, permit, and Veridian to come and do the disconnect. Once the plan was set, Scott came early in the morning and had the entire job done before 4pm. He is very friendly, courteous and professional. If you want an electrical job done properly, safely and professionally, call Scott!

Thanks for posting, Todd.
Your first phone call captured my interest, as there was a potentially dangerous, and inconvenient situation looming. It was a pleasure to do the work for you, and I am hoping that you will never have to worry about that again!

Laundry room exhaust fan

After moving into my house recently I noticed the exhaust fan in my laundry room that was not working. Scott came out on a Sunday and figured out what the issue was (the builder had not hooked the wiring up to the switch) and got it up and running in no time. Communication with Scott was great - he indicated he would call me an hour before the appointment (which he did) and he showed up on time. My experience with Gord's Electric was a positive one and I would highly recommend the company.

Several electrical issues resolved

Scott from Gord’s Electric solved several electrical issues around my house. He installed a stove receptacle and plug-in cord to replace the old hard-wire stove connection. He also installed a receptacle for my garage door opener, and got rid of the “illegal” extension cord that was always getting in the way. Several outdoor GFCIs were installed, and a 3-way switching issue corrected. A dedicated circuit & outdoor GFCI was installed for the sump pump, and a freeze protection cable installed in the sump drain line, which solved freezing issues that I had been putting up with up with for years.

Scott arrived when he said he would, completed the work on schedule, did neat work, and cleaned up when he was finished. Electrical inspection was passed with no issues.

I will use Scott again for any other work, and would recommend Scott to anyone who wanted quality electrical work done neatly, on time and on budget.

Hi Barbara
It was a pleasure to do the work for you. I'm sure things are much safer, and more convenient for you now. The "Heatline" freeze protection system was very interesting to work with, and has proven to work very well.

Tear Out

I hired Scott to do a tear out of wiring (indoor and outdoor). He did a very thorough job and paid great attention to detail. He is very knowledgeable, and pointed out/fixed errors the previous homeowners made in their electrical work. Prices are reasonable and job was completed well within my desired timeline. Would definitely hire Scott for future jobs!

Blown light fixture

Gord's Electric provides great customer service and is well priced. We had a simple problem, a blown light fixture, which they took care of the following day. Our tenants were very pleased with the speedy and friendly service. If our tenants are happy then I'm happy.
