NWT Services: Electrical & Home Improvements

When working with a new customer we always try to make sure they understand us as we try to understand them so we could work effectively and efficiently together to get the job done the right way the first time.

Usually for standard work it is a flat rate price including labor and service call.  If the type of work to be done relates to any kind of troublecall related work,  then we charge $135 for the first flat half hour followed by $140/ hour.  The time of day or night does not matter for trouble call rates as we keep them the same during regular business hour and after business hours including all day Sat. and Sun.  All labor and parts are covered by a 1 year warranty from date of install.

Service Panel Upgrades come with a 3 year warranty. Exterior hot tub motors come with a 3 month warranty. 

Thru experience of being a laborer for various contractors over the years and thru building trades program the last 2 years of my high school year, I went on to getting my licensing completed. 

Residential and commercial.

Electrical power issues:

A recent client had an issue with power in their home.  They called an electrician before me that stated the reason they had an issue with their light going bright while using the toaster is that their service breaker box needed to be replaced. And that if that did not solve the problem, that the next step would be to rewire the entire house because there is a bad wire somewhere.  They wanted to charge the customer over $2500 just to upgrade the breaker box which was only 100 amps and was still in new condition with no show of wear n tear, or moisture getting into box. With my years of experience and training, I found the problem with in 15 minutes of my arrival.  I did a load test at the meter can outside where utility power comes in. The problem they were experiencing was due to corroded connections at the home connection point from utility power source. I called utility power on their behalf and a lineman crew was on site within 1 hour. They were very thankful of my finding and extremely happy they didn't go with first electricians thought as the problem would have still been there. Some people jump the gun and go with what they hear until they find out they wanted money on someone who thought they knew what they were doing. The moral of the story, dot your i's and cross your t's, get a second opinion if your not sure, it could just save you a lot of time and money. 

Look for positive reviews, reliability, warranty, willingness to travel, if contractor is coming from far away; licensing, insurance, years in business and years of experience.
