View serviceNew and older Colwood homes
Royal Bay homes are newer and wired to current code. Much of the rest of Colwood is 1970s and '80s houses with older panels that are short on capacity for heat pumps and EV chargers.
Either way, we pull permits through Technical Safety BC, and book the inspections. For EV chargers, we help with the rebate paperwork. We handle the electrical side of heat pump installs (the circuit, disconnect and panel capacity) and work with your heating contractor. You approve a fixed quote before work starts.

No. A typical panel swap takes one day. Power is off for most of the day, starting in the morning. We install the panel, and power is usually back the same day once it passes inspection. We book it all.
