The electrical work inside your basement, renovation, or older home is planned, roughed in, quality controlled, and finished by the same team you meet at the walk-through.

We had Geoff come out recently to do a quick electrical job, and I now know why there are so many 5-star reviews. It wasn't the cost, but the way they handled themselves through the process that won me over.


Great work and integrity in what they do is very apparent and important to them. I will be recommending them to anyone who asks. Thanks again Josh and Geoff.

01 • Electrical Rough-In


Walls framed with the electrical rough-in in mind

We rough in the electrical in your basement or renovation with the walls framed for an efficient rough-in, along with planning switch locations, outlet placements, and lighting layouts with you before any wire gets pulled.

Red Seal certified in electrical and carpentry


Josh holds Red Seal certification in both electrical and carpentry, which is why the walls get framed with the electrical rough-in in mind, by the same team. Outlets end up exactly where the finished layout calls for them, wire runs get pulled cleanly through framing built with those runs in mind, and nothing gets lost in a hand-off between two trades because there is no hand-off.

Electrical permits and rough-in inspections handled on your behalf


Our licensed electricians pull the electrical permit at the start of the job, schedule the rough-in inspection with the City of Edmonton once the wiring is complete, and then we walk it with the inspector directly. Any calls or adjustments from the inspector get handled directly, and nothing gets closed in behind drywall until the rough-in has passed.


02 • Pulling Wire and Running Circuits


Wire pulled and circuits run for every part of your home

Our team runs new wire and installs circuits sized for how each room actually gets used, from dedicated kitchen appliance loads to GFCI protection in bathrooms and workshop-rated power in the garage. Every new circuit gets labelled at the panel, so you know exactly what each breaker controls.

Load checked at the panel before we start

The existing panel gets checked for amperage before any new wire gets pulled, so the load is known upfront and any panel-side work is planned into the scope.


On older Edmonton homes with smaller panels, this gets flagged early.



Wiring for basement developments and legal suites

Basement developments and legal suites get wired to carry the full living space, from bedrooms and bathrooms to kitchens and wet bars.


Where the load or a suite separation calls for one, we add a sub-panel to the scope.

Replacing old wire in older homes

Old wire that cannot carry modern loads gets pulled and replaced with new runs tied back to the panel.


Older Edmonton homes especially, where wiring from the appliance era of the day cannot handle a modern kitchen or a finished basement.



Each space in a basement or home renovation gets its own circuits, planned around how the room is actually going to be lived in and sized for the loads it will carry.



  • Kitchens get dedicated circuits for the range, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, and small appliance loads, so nothing shares power with something it should not.


  • Bathrooms get GFCI-protected circuits for outlets, vanity lighting, and exhaust fans.


  • Basements get separate circuits for bedrooms, bathrooms, wet bars, and mechanical rooms.


  • Garages and workshops get circuits sized for real workshop tools, heaters, or an EV charger if that is in the plan.


  • Hard-wired appliances like dryers, ranges, and hot tubs get their own dedicated circuits.


03 • Lighting & Fixtures


Lighting and fixtures for your basement or renovation

Our electrical team wires and installs the lighting, fixtures, and switches inside every basement development and home renovation we complete in Edmonton, from switches, outlets, and pot lights to exhaust fans and vanity lighting. We’ll give you our recommendations, but we can install whatever lighting you choose, including more complex fixtures.

Lighting & Fixtures

  • Any fixture you choose, installed to spec
  • Pot lights
  • Ceiling fixtures
  • Vanity and mirror lighting
  • Under-cabinet lighting
  • Soffit lights and porch fixtures
  • Exterior lights

Outlet Plugs & Switches

  • Outlets and receptacles (standard, GFCI, AFCI)
  • Standard and dimmer switches
  • Three-way and four-way switching
  • Bathroom exhaust fans
  • HRV wiring and integration
  • Ceiling Fans

04 • Code Compliance


Every electrical installation built to code

Smoke and CO detectors, including egress bedroom compliance

We install hardwired, interconnected smoke detectors in every bedroom, every hallway outside a bedroom, and every level of the home, with CO detectors placed near sleeping areas and fuel-burning appliances. On egress-bedroom basements, the new bedroom's detectors get tied into the existing home system at rough-in, so the whole house alarms together instead of running as two separate systems.


GFCI and AFCI protection

GFCI protection is installed in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, unfinished basements, and exterior outlets, and AFCI protection on the residential circuits current Alberta code requires. Both get tested at finish, so the protection is confirmed working before the inspector ever sees it.


Final inspection and permit close-out

Final inspection is scheduled once every device, fixture, and detector is installed and the panel is fully labeled, then walk it with the inspector directly. Permit close-out happens the same day the inspection passes, so there is no paperwork left outstanding once the job wraps.


05 • Older Home Electrical


Electrical work for older Edmonton homes

We replace ungrounded outlets and run new wire anywhere the existing wiring cannot carry a modern kitchen or basement, all handled inside the renovation scope instead of a separate hire.


Most of this work happens before drywall goes up, alongside the rest of the electrical rough-in, but we'll troubleshoot and find what needs to be replaced.

Aluminum Wire Pigtailing


Whole-home aluminum wire pigtailing for older Edmonton homes, completed in a single day. Every outlet, switch, splice point, and breaker gets opened, treated, and brought up to current code.


Loose connections and heat buildup at aluminum terminations get addressed at every point in the home, not just the visible ones.


Homeowners often book this on its own, outside of any larger renovation, for insurance requirements or before resale.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions Homeowners Ask Us

Do you do electrical-only jobs, or only electrical as part of a bigger project?

Most of our electrical work happens inside a basement development, home renovation, or older home update we are already running. If scheduling and current workload allow, we do standalone electrical work like EV charger installation, aluminum wire pigtailing, and whole-home surge protection. Reach out with the scope, and we will let you know if it fits.

How is electrical priced on your projects?

Electrical on a basement development or home renovation is quoted as part of the full project scope, so you get one number for the job instead of separate quotes from a general contractor and an electrician. Standalone services like aluminum wire pigtailing are quoted flat-rate per home based on square footage and the number of devices. Reach out with the scope and we will put together a straight number.

Do you upgrade aluminum wire in older homes?

Yes. We complete full-home aluminum wire pigtailing as a single-day service, opening and treating every connection point in the home. Outlets, switches, splices, and breakers. Homeowners often book this on its own for insurance requirements or before resale.

Do you pull the permits and handle the inspections?

Yes. We pull the electrical permit at the start of the job, schedule the rough-in and final inspections with the City of Edmonton or town you are in, and usually walk both directly with the inspector. Permit close-out happens the same day the final inspection passes.

Do you handle the electrical if we are already working with another general contractor?

Not usually. Our electrical work is part of the projects our own crew is running. Standalone electrical work on someone else's job site is not work we do.
