Edmonton Electrical Services | Alpha-Omega Developments
Our in-house team of Red Seal electricians handles the wiring, circuits, lighting, and inspections to code inside every basement, renovation, and home we take on across Edmonton.
Alpha-Omega Developments is an Edmonton contractor with licensed Red Seal journeyman electricians on our in-house crew.
The electrical work inside your basement, renovation, or older home is planned, roughed in, inspected, and finished by the same team you meet at the walk-through.
Below is the full scope of what that covers.

01 • Electrical Rough-In
Electrical Roughed-In by the same crew framing your walls
We rough in the electrical on your basement or renovation during the same phase we are framing, planning switch locations, outlet placements, and lighting layouts with you before any wire gets pulled.
Red Seal certified in electrical and carpentry
Our in-house crew holds Red Seal certification in both electrical and carpentry, which is why the framing and the electrical rough-in happen in the same phase, 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 walk the inspector through 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. Sizing gets checked against real loads at the panel, so no breaker trips a year later because a circuit was undersized during rough-in.
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.
A sub-panel install gets folded in where the load or suite separation calls for one.
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 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.

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 Wiring Pigtailing
We complete full-home aluminum wiring pigtailing in Edmonton homes as a single-day service, terminating every aluminum wire to a copper lead with an approved connector at each outlet, switch, and fixture.
This addresses the loose connections and heat buildup aluminum wiring develops at its terminals over time, and brings every termination point in the home up to current code.
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 take on 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. We do take on standalone electrical work in some cases, aluminum wiring pigtailing being the most common example. 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 wiring 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 wiring in older homes?
Yes. We complete full-home aluminum wiring pigtailing as a single-day service, terminating every aluminum wire to a copper lead with an approved connector at each outlet, switch, and fixture. 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 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 jobsite is not something we take on.
