Electrical Panel Upgrade + Smoke Alarms
- Approximate cost of services:

- Company Response:
- Thank you Gerry, we appreciate your review, and the points that you made. There are things that should be upgraded in older homes. Fuse panels are one of these things - they are outdated, and usually have no room for adding new circuits. Hence we find that circuits are often "doubled up" on one fuse, and the fuse size that is installed is incorrect. Replacing older Fuse Panels with a new Circuit Breaker Panel, provides more space for future wiring, and without the problem of "doubled-up" circuits. Smoke Alarms are another important area. Every year there is sad news of people who lost their lives because they did not have working smoke alarms in their home. If they are older than 10 years - they MUST be replaced. Surge Protection is another important safety feature that we strongly believe in. Protecting electronic components that are in almost every appliance made today, and of course your TV and Computer by installing Surge Protection at the Main Panel and at each point of use is a wise choice. We look forward to seeing you again, when you need us. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric.
Under cabinet lights are not working properly
- Approximate cost of services:
- $300.00
- Company Response:
- Sandra, thank you for your review. That's okay, its better late than never. Next time - do not hesitate to call right away when something is not working. It is often not as bad as we might think it is, and can be repaired fairly quickly. [Of course - after saying this - it reminds me that I have some plumbing issues in my house that I have to take care of - ha ha]. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric, and we will see you next time.
Pot light installation
- Approximate cost of services:
- $8,000.00
- Company Response:
- We appreciate your review John. You commented on the neatness of our work. When we are finished a project in a client's home, it is important to us that you cannot tell that we were there. There should be no bits of garbage whatsoever left behind. Installations such as recessed lighting (pot lights) should be carefully planned to avoid unnecessary damage to walls and ceilings for access holes for wiring. We are proud of our team, knowing that they have respect for our clients and their homes. We look forward to serving you again in the future.
Emergency Electrical
- Approximate cost of services:
- $250.00
- Company Response:
- Thank you David. We are happy that you were satisfied with the service we provided. No one likes emergencies of an electrical nature. They can be a dangerous threat to life and property. No one really likes surprises either, when it comes to payment for services. Being upfront about our service call, and what to expect, and providing a call ahead, are all part of the service we provide. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric.

- Company Response:
- Thank you Alfred. We appreciate your comments. Only some people call Enrico "Mr" - that was nice of you :) Explaining a problem and the corrective measure is something we like to do for all of our clients. We encourage them to ask questions, and are always willing to explain the work that we are doing. We look forward to being of service next time you need an electrician at your home. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric, it was a pleasure serving you.

- Company Response:
- Rod - thank you for posting this review. We are glad that we were able to answer your call live. (We attempt to answer all calls live, but this is not always possible). When you need us again, we will be happy to help. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric as your service provider.
Electrical problem with loss of power in the home.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $290.00
- Company Response:
- Daunta, thank you posting this review. We were happy to be of service and determine the cause of the problem. With electrical problems on the supply to the home, this is the responsibility of the Local Supply Authority (power company), who were able to make the repair in a timely manner, once it was confirmed with them that it was their problem. We look forward to serving you once again, whenever you need our help. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric.
