Common jobs in Sooke
Most Sooke work is backup power for storm outages, acreages on wells, and new construction around Sunriver.
Standby generators
Storm outages can last a long time in parts of Sooke. We install standby generators with automatic transfer, sized for your well pump, freezer and heat as well as the lights.
Generator installsWells, pumps & rural circuits
Pump controls, pressure-switch circuits, outbuilding feeders and long underground runs. We troubleshoot from the panel all the way to the pump.
Rural service workPanel & service upgrades
Older homes off Otter Point and Sooke River Road often have 100-amp services that can't take a heat pump. We upgrade the service, mast and panel under one permit.
Panel upgradesEV chargers & new builds
Level 2 chargers for commuters in Sunriver and Woodland Creek, and wiring for new construction in Sooke's subdivisions.

Sooke's power supply and housing
Winter storms can leave parts of Sooke without power for a long time, which is why many people here want standby generators.
Housing ranges from 1970s–80s owner-built homes, with the wiring problems that come with them, to mid-2000s subdivisions and new builds still under warranty.
We pull the permit with Technical Safety BC, arrange the inspection and give you the paperwork at the end. If you're upgrading a service or adding an EV charger, ask whether provincial rebates may apply before you sign. We handle the electrical side of heat pump installs (the circuit, disconnect and panel capacity) and work with your heating contractor.
Common questions

It depends on what has to keep running. A well pump, fridge/freezer, some heat and lights usually needs a 10–14 kW standby unit. Electric heat or a shop means a bigger unit. We do a load calculation on site before we recommend a size.
Often it's electrical. Common causes are a tripped breaker, failed pressure switch, waterlogged control box or a fault in the buried feeder. We test the electrical side first. If the pump itself has failed, we'll confirm it so the well contractor only bills for pump work.
Yes, rough-in to final for custom builds and small builders. Multi-day jobs make better use of the drive than one-off service calls, so new construction is the best fit for Sooke once we start working there.
