There's sometimes where the conditions we work are unpleasant. With heat like this, this attic was 52°C. We take special care with situations like this, like very short trips up there, constant communication, lots of microbreaks, and lots of water. ![]()

So boy are we glad it's Friday! ![]()

What are you doing this long weekend? Leave us a comment and we'll pick a random winner next Friday!

Here is a quick Tesla charger we installed before the customer got the car. Even had a friend with a Tesla come by to test it out after commissioning!
We hope everyone is getting ready for a good weekend that's not too hot!![]()
![]()
Just a heads up, we have been working some long hours lately, thank you Airdrie for that! As a result, we will be closed tomorrow for a little rest.![]()

Have a great weekend!
Hey everyone! Today's customer of the week is going to have a little safety mixed in. ![]()
![]()
This is the second time in a little bit that we've seen a breaker that isn't the same brand as the panel, both times on AC units. ![]()
![]()
If you're thinking about an AC unit, make sure you get a permit so the install can be inspected and these safety hazards don't get overlooked. And feel free to ask the AC company if they have an electrician on staff, who can do a house load calculation. ![]()
![]()
Enjoy the rest of your week.
I hope everyone is having a relaxing long weekend! The snow and rain scared us a little bit, but we toughed it out!
Happy Wednesday everyone! ![]()
We just want to take some time to discuss some safety. These wires from an old hot tub run were found live, in a dog run. ![]()
![]()
If there's anything you find suspicious around your home, give us a call and we can come diagnose and make safe.
Bosley and Charlie are this week's customers of the week! The mat made us very excited to walk in
This week's Customer Of The Week is Trampoline Teddy! I wish I had gotten pictures of him jumping, but we were a little busy wiring in this customers new swim spa!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! ![]()

Just a reminder that the sun coming out for longer means kids are eager to get outside (and their parents agree) to play, and they might not always be looking for you in your vehicle so pay extra attention! ![]()

Have a great week!
Our new temp while Luke is in school will work for snacks, but has a strict break (nap) schedule that is hard to keep up with. Luckily she points out when my truck is dirty so then I can hit the car wash. Thanks for the keen eyes Olivia!
Shout out to Bullseye Elec - for once again doin the job right - on time - and on budget. That shower light has been well received boys!
This week's customer of the week is Dogtor Steve Barksworth! Whatever ails you, he always prescribes tummy rubs, and I've never felt better.
Happy birthday to our apprentice Luke! We appreciate your dedication, hard work, and desire to further your education. ![]()

Good luck in the last stretch of this school year!![]()

Sorry for 2 posts today, but we ended up at Airdrie Canvas Inc and BBQVille Canada! Check this place out for all your grilling needs! The Chilly Moose brand of coolers, water bottles, wine bottles and cups have made their way to the top of my birthday list! ![]()

It's been a while since I worked with a crane, let alone in a residential setting. Everyone worked together really well with excellent communication for this swim spa!
You guys came out to our house and installed a huge ceiling fan. Professionals all the way and you're coming back soon to install our new pendant lights over the Island, stay tuned as Deb will be in touch very soon, cheers.
Thank you Airdrie and area for welcoming us for for past 4 years. Time flies when you're having fun and meeting all you great people. Happy Birthday Bullseye!
Happy Friday everyone! Stay safe and have as much fun as this week's Customer Of The Week, Luna had while I was swapping some lighting!
Happy holidays everyone! We hope everyone was happy and healthy with this unorthodox Christmas. ![]()
We got ourselves a new Christmas thermal imaging system. ![]()
This can allow our clients to have a thermal imaging report which may result in insurance savings, as well as tracking anomalies, in commercial and residential applications. ![]()
We tried it out today for a very happy client (not the dog).![]()

Have a safe and happy new year! ![]()

Just a quick safety tip with everyone being home so often. Be sure to check your smoke and CO detectors. They should have a "replace by" date, and that should be followed, and be sure to test them. ![]()
![]()
Yesterday we were on a site where a carbon monoxide leak happened. While no one was hurt, thankfully the interconnected smoke/CO detectors let everyone in the house know. Thanks to the Airdrie Fire Department and the gas provider for the quick response. ![]()

Have a safe and happy holidays!
Thank you to Nikki Cossette for the #eyeloveairdrie nomination. Sorry it’s so late! I had planned to take videos of all the amazing places I love in Airdrie, but I just ran out of time! There are so many businesses I could tag, that it’s hard to pick just 5! But here I go:![]()
![]()
Custom Gemini - I have literally used Sarah’s services since we opened our shop! She is so thoughtful, and her products just resonate with me! She takes my vision and makes them come to life!![]()
![]()
Abe's - I love this community focused restaurant. They do good and I love it! Plus their BBQ chicken poutine is quickly becoming one of my fave things ever!![]()
![]()
@B’ssweetsugarcookies- I don’t know why it won’t let me tag B, but I love her hilarious and cheeky sugar cookies. If you’re looking for custom cookies, please contact her!! ![]()
![]()
The Pest Control Guy INC - Antoine is a super hard working entrepreneur. Him and I sit on the Airdrie Chamber of Commerce Advocacy Committee and he is passionate about helping businesses thrive in Airdrie! ![]()

Revival Therapeutics & Performance - a new to Airdrie business started by three very cool ladies! Their social media is off the chain, great how-to videos and I am excited for when they re-open in the new year! ![]()
![]()
Airdrie Puppy Pals - this is who I trust my Floyd with. Daycare, boarding, training and more! They are extremely community focused and just such sincere souls!![]()

I just want to give a shout out to all the amazing businesses in Airdrie, all the resilient entrepreneurs, and for each and every soul who has looked to support local! Thank you! Happy Holidays everyone!
This Customer Of The Week is Dakota! Although he was mostly playing foreman and making sure L was checking his connections. Best foreman I've ever had.
I'm not sure the last time you saw a 10 week old German Sheppard, but this is our Customer Of The Week Laika. She wears a bow tie, and can't run very fast on laminate floor without falling over!
Hey everyone, sorry about the absence, we've been very busy!![]()

Are you looking for a Christmas gift for someone who has everything? We just did a little maintenance at Airdrie Canvas Inc, and they have a bunch of meat smokers and everything you need that goes with them!![]()
![]()
The display made me hungry just imagining eating what comes out of them! Check them out!![]()

Did you know it's illegal to bury an electrical box? This top box was buried behind some drywall, and it took a while to find. ![]()
![]()
There's a couple rules on this, that we spend years studying. If you're thinking of putting a box behind drywall, give us a call! We can come up with different plans that will save some headache later on down the road. ![]()
![]()
Hiding a box can lead to dangerous situations since they aren't visible. It will also help keep labour costs down, as well as drywall repair costs. Luckily I found this one on the first try.![]()

Have a spooky weekend!![]()

The most recent customer of the week is Buddy! He never goes anywhere without his bunny!
Hey everyone. ![]()

Just another "make sure you hire a professional" post. There's too much wrong with this to list, but this illegal splice creates a hazard to persons and property. Had we reached into the ceiling without looking, the exposed copper not only could have shocked one of us, but there is a chance it could electrify this copper water pipe. ![]()
![]()
This was done by someone with 0 training, and could have resulted in something much worse than flickering lights.
10 hour Friday's don't feel so bad when you get to look at a custom garage like this at the end. ![]()
![]()
Have a great weekend everyone!
I know we haven't done it in a while, but this Customer Of The Week is Luna! While we were doing this barn wedding venue, she was reminding us that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. She did this by constantly asking us to throw her toy for her to fetch. Once we told her we had to get this done for a wedding next weekend, she started bringing us our materials. ![]()
![]()
If Luna is reading this, I want to reiterate I wanted nothing more than to throw your toy for you all day.![]()

Have a great, safe long weekend everyone!![]()

Are you thinking of buying a hot tub? Make sure to have a master electrician come out to do a house calculation beforehand to avoid hidden service upgrading costs! ![]()
Did you know we have 2 master electricians on staff?
A big thank you to our friend Jarret who did a fantastic job on some new promotional shots for the website and other online work. He did a great job working with our lack of ideas, and one stubborn old beagle to try and make some shots work. We couldnt be happier with the results!![]()

This Customer Of The Week is one we've never seen before! Meet Turtle Haggard, as our pun savvy apprentice named him.
We've had a few extremely busy weeks, so we had a very important director's meeting in a nice quiet spot. Luckily the hail missed us, even if the rain hit us pretty hard. We hope everyone is safe after that doozie!
Hey everyone! ![]()

We want to thank everyone for the continued support! We are getting very close to our 500th invoice, so we would like to extend a thanks! We won't tell you where we're at, but who ever is our 500th is going to get 15% off their entire bill!
Do you have years worth of plastic bags saved up like we did? Did you know the Airdrie Food Bank could use them? They just have to be folded, clean, and with no holes. We ended up filling 2 boxes and a reusable bag to take for donation today!![]()

This weeks Customers Of Week are Jax and Tinkerbelle! Jax is a 12 week old chihuahua who's hobbies include bugging his older sister, chewing strings, and looking less than graceful going down stairs, but he is trying very hard.
Hey everyone. We hope everyone is staying healthy and occupied. ![]()

Just a little reminder, even though you may be getting bored, we ask that if you are taking on any big home improvement projects, please ensure they are being carried out by professionals. Our Electrical code book is almost 1,000 pages, and we have to familiarize ourselves with all of it. Even something as small as putting your wire the wrong way on a screw terminal, or not tightening properly can have consequences. We spend months in school learning technical training, as well as countless hours in the field putting that training to use, and always bettering our practices and procedures. ![]()

These pictures are from a basement, even though I can't say 100%, appears to have been done by someone unqualified. There are definitely a few telltale signs we can see pretty well instantly. This could have turned out much worse than paying for a few new plugs and some labour. ![]()

Stay safe everyone. ![]()

Hey everyone, we hope you are staying healthy and happy during this isolation. ![]()
![]()
This post is to let you know, we are still up and going. We respect your isolation, but if you should need us, we are taking precautions, such as hand sanitizing before we walk in your door, avoiding handshakes, and maintaining the recommended distance from customers. ![]()
![]()
If you have any questions regarding permitting or inspections, feel free to contact your municipality.![]()

Stay safe!
Hey everyone, ![]()

I seemed to have caused a little confusion with my wording on yesterday's post. City Of Airdrie Building Inspections are not closed, they are still up and running. Inspectors simply won't be inspecting occupied homes for the time being. ![]()
![]()
For more information, check out www.airdrie.ca/index.cfm?serviceID=6.
City of Airdrie - Building Inspections
www.airdrie.ca
Building Inspections provides quality inspection services to permit applicants, owners and occupants of new and renovated buildings to ensure they are constructed to meet or exceed the Alberta Building Code and related regulations.
One of the more underrated aspects of our job, we feel, is making it easier on the next person who would be working on the system, whether it be us going back or someone else. For example, when we pulled this internet cable through a 225' pipe run, it costs almost nothing to pull a string as well. This saves trying to push a fish tape through a pipe that's no longer empty. ![]()

Our goal is to serve Airdrie and area with the least amount of headache possible. Feel free to give us a call for a free estimate for your next project!
This is a very special Customer Of The Week. While none of us are really cat people, this little puffball tried their best to learn and help us run a new dishwasher and microwave circuit. While the lack of thumbs made it tough to pass tools or materials, they persisted. ![]()

Feel free to give us a call for a free estimate!
Thank You!
