Do I need a panel upgrade for my renovation?

It depends on your new loads. We complete a load calculation and only recommend a panel upgrade when necessary.

Can you help with lighting design?

We’ll propose fixture counts, switch locations, dimmers, and control options that fit the space and budget.

Who handles permits and inspections?

We do. We apply for the correct permits and attend inspections with the City of Calgary

What if I’m living in the home during the reno?

We phase work to minimize disruption, protect finished areas, and keep temporary power where possible.
