A certified electrician will help you get the job done right

Building a new house or doing some renovations? Have an electrical problem that needs solving? A certified electrician will get the job done right.

You were careful to get an inspection done before you purchased your new home, but it looks like a few bugs went undetected. Or perhaps you also live in an old home whose wiring needs a bit of an update.

• One thing is for sure: a home with electric wiring that is functional and in good condition is necessary for everyone’s safety.

With that in mind, contacting a certified electrician to inspect the entire system and track down any problems may not be a bad idea.

Certified electricians are experts in the installation, maintenance, and inspection of several kinds of systems.

• Fibre optics
• Exterior and interior lighting
• Alarm systems
• Electrical safety
• Air conditioning
• Home movie theatres
• Electrical panels and home wiring

Power failures are never pleasant, but a consultation with a certified electrician can decrease the damage caused to your appliances by a power failure.

A certified electrician can help you ensure the safety of your property and your family. Danger is everywhere when it comes to little ones and furry friends, especially when it comes to electricity. Thankfully, a certified electrician can install some added protection features, including:

• A surge arrester
• Clips
• Cable ducts (metal enclosuresmade to protect cables)
• Shock-resistant sheathing
• Cord-covers (if you have to leave electrical cords on the floor)

Don’t worry about safety interfering with your home’s decor. A certified electrician will be sure to respect your desire to keep your space attractive. Best of all, with a certified electrician’s recommendations, any electric appliances that are sensitive to power surges will last longer.

All the parts installed in your home by a certified electrician are usually guaranteed by the supplier, and the work done should be guaranteed by the company.

• When you hire a certified electrician, you are assured of quality workmanship, and you eliminate the risk of injury you would face by doing the work yourself.

Keep in mind that a professional’s certification allows you to distinguish an honest and properly trained tradesperson from an unqualified one.

• To check on an electrician’s certification, don’t hesitate to ask previous customers for references, request to see his or her insurance papers and license, or check with recognized professional associations.
• After all, doing business with a certified electrician is also about investing your money wisely.

*Not only is it dangerous, it may even be illegal in some provinces, such as Québec, to do your own electrical wiring. The solution: consider hiring a master electrician.
