ACTION ELECTRIC > City Wide > Residential.

I ONLY DO Electrical Service/Panel Upgrades to 100 or 200 amperes.

Pmt by PayPal, Cheque or cash.The work can begin in approx. 12 days time. - Unlike some others,

Quick Service inspection, already scheduled, for as soon as the work is completed - no delays!

Quick approval for HYDRO FINANCING is available, I look after all paper work. Financing Payments are usually $40-$45/month on your Hydro bill!

Many references available. _ Hassles, excuses, delays with others? With me, all under full control - Guaranteed!

I also work on Saturdays. I work quite stealthy - no intrusions, no loud noises, loud mouths or big dirty boots around!

At the same time as doing the work, ASK for a throughout safety visual wiring report inspection of your home, includes a letter to the insurance,

an assessement of how much OLD wiring is still present - all at no charge.

Also ask for an 1 HR FREE instruction on your own DIY (do it yourself) additional wiring, repairs, rec. room, garage wiring etc..

I may also help you in completing properly your resident home owner "self

home rewiring for a very small fee" - subject to my own special set up.

I may also be availaable to do a home insurance required wiring inspection & report

or for you to know details about the electrical installation before buying a home or also very benificial if

you are selling your home!.  Until further notice, that is ALL I do.

 

(If your concern is only home REWIRING see: http://www.actionelectric.ca/homerewiring.htm )

"faulty home electrical wiring is responsible for 40,000 fires a year and results in the loss of 350 lives" - see here:

 http://www.safeelectricity.org/index.php/information-center/library-of-articles/55-home-safety/293-home-safe-home 

June 6, 2011 - I am set up, presently, to do strictly RESIDENTIAL and COMMERCIAL Panel/Service upgrades (free estimates in most areas) from 60 to 100 or to 200 amperes. At other times - usually starting in the fall - I we may also do wiring INSURANCE INSPECTIONS including wiring consultations only for  "RESIDENT" home owners. There is a PREPAID $100.00 charge to do estimates other than for a service upgrade which may be for rewwiring etc.  Also, depending on time available in the fall, we may do knob & tube REPLACEMENT wiring or rewiring of older homes. This is all I do - as of Oct. 19, 2011.

SERVICE UPGRADES  

ALL essential power for heating, lighting etc. will be "KEPT ON" at all times while a service upgrade is being done.

Only a period (if any at all) of 1-2hrs of a total power shut down may be required" 

The service upgrade work is scheduled according to your time line, I work Saturdays.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The minimum cost of a 100 amperes residential service upgrade, as of June 05 -  2011 is  approx. $1,900.00 One of the price affecting factors is how many circuits there are to reconnect back to the new panel and the length of the outside conduit being run including if a MAST above the roof is also required. No two service upgrades are ever alike.

A 200 amp. may cost approx. $400 to $600 more. - an EXACT  price for a service upgrade will be given after viewing the work on site - MOST service upgrade estimates are free!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We also apply for the City of Winnipeg property tax rebate when available!

(UPDATE: Mar 31, 2009 )- MB Hydro financing  is available. Interest rates  were lowered

to 8.5% for general electrical renovations/upgrades and

 4.9% for power smart electrical and other renovations.

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: In most cases ONLY urgent needed work for approximately 3-10 hours may also may be possible to be done as long as I am doing a service upgrade at the same time! Any extra work not decided or not set out initially may NOT BE POSSIBLE OR may only  be done about 2 - 4 weeks later. Any other work, 3-10 hours, should be included in the INITIAL estimate special package with already special lower prices. Extra work decided later will be at regular prices.

Such urgent needed work, 3-10 hours or even longer!, may be limited to (in residential): a receptacle in the kitchen, a washer receptacle, an outdoor receptacle, replacing a defective light fixture, replacement of SOME of the knob & tube wiring or any thing else similar which is regarded as urgent.
