Absolutely! Co Electric is fully licensed by Alberta's Safety Codes
Council and carries comprehensive liability insurance. All our
electricians are journeyman-certified and stay current with
Alberta's electrical code requirements. We pull permits when
required and ensure all work meets or exceeds safety standards.
Permits are required for panel upgrades, new circuits, major
rewiring, hot tub installations, and most electrical modifications.
We handle all permit applications and inspections. Minor work like
changing light fixtures or outlets typically doesn't require
permits. We'll always inform you when permits are needed.
Panels typically last 25-40 years. Consider upgrading if you have an
old fuse box, frequent breaker trips, insufficient amperage (less
than 100 amps), adding major appliances, or during home renovations.
Modern homes often need 200-amp service to handle today's electrical
demands safely.
We serve Edmonton and surrounding areas including Sherwood Park, St.
Albert, Leduc, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Beaumont, and Fort
Saskatchewan. For locations outside our standard service area,
please call to discuss travel charges and availability.
Yes! We provide a comprehensive warranty on all workmanship. Labor
is warranted for 1 year, and we honor manufacturer warranties on all
materials and equipment we install. If you experience any issues
with our work, we'll return to fix it at no charge.
For non-emergency services, we typically can schedule within 2-3
business days. Emergency calls are responded to within 1 hour, 24/7.
During busy seasons, regular service calls may take longer, but
we'll always provide you with an accurate timeframe when you call.
