Not knowing the cumulative draw on a circuit in the walkout of our townhouse, one of the outlets overheated and started to smoke.

Big Hill Electrical Services responded quickly to replace the outlet and explain how to avoid the problem in the future.

Our ceiling fan stopped working so we contacted Big Hill Electric about changing out the fan that included a remote controller. The person who took the call indicated that we should buy a fan and then contact them when ready to install. We obtained one with a remote as we didn’t want to use pull chains because of our high ceiling. They were prompt at coming out, and the electrician was efficient and had the fan installed in about an hour. It turned out the remote that we had purchased didn’t work properly and rather than get another one, the electrician suggested using a controller installed as a wall switch that he had with him. It turns out the wall switch was a much better choice. The only thing I would suggest is to possibly provide more information to the client regarding options, especially about the method of control, before they purchase a fan (e.g., a wall switch controller versus a remote - we didn’t know at the time we could retrofit a wall switch). All and all we were very pleased with the job done and would definitely recommend the company.

We started this project when it was necessary to replace the fluorescent lighting in our kitchen with more modern LED lighting (with dimmer switch). The first contractor lacked experience, and knowledge to do the project properly. We contacted another electrical company in NW Calgary who appeared to be competent, but seemed unable to get the time to do our project (perhaps the job was too small, and they couldn't fit us in.) We contacted Big Hill Electrical Services, Cochrane, Ab., on Friday, past, and they did the project yesterday (Monday). We learned about this Co. from a friend and after viewing their website we felt sure they could bail us out. They are everything their website indicates. The job was done by Luke & he was knowledgeable, friendly, neat and completed the work like a true professional. What a relief to have this job done! I will add that Jason and the ladies working there are friendly and efficient in helping us. I just can't say too many good things about this co.

The Big Hill guys are quick to respond and evaluate the problem. Fortunately it was an easy fix and they were finished quickly. I continue to call them for our commercial building.

I always seem to have just small household electrical jobs that Big Hill Electric treat as if very important to them. this latest was no different. They respond quickly, they are always professional, kind, and thorough.

I want to say thank you so much for the Excellent service that your company gave us on July 5 of this year. We had a power failure at the campground because of the high load requirement at the campground that day! Very hot and approx 100 campers came back from the Calgary Stampede and threw on all their air-conditioners. Your man was quick and efficient on a Friday night and restored the power with a new 300 amp fuse which he had to drive to SE Calgary to get. So glad you were able to help us!

Your company has something that is rarely found in today's world. The estimate was very fair and the work was excellent. The employees were very punctual and professional. I would highly recommend your company.

I Work for CMS Real Estate Ltd. which have used Big Hill Electrical for multiple years. They are the only electricians I will call out to the properties we manage. Big Hill is extremely quick to response to service calls and there prices are very reasonable. This is a GREAT company, they will go above and behind for their clients. I would recommend them to anyone.

Big Hill Electrical is a great company to hire for any electrical work. Harold is friendly, knowledgeable and has helpful advice. His staff are courteous and a pleasure to work with! Scheduling work around other crews was no problem and the results are amazing! A job well done.

Big Hill Electrical ran new wiring to our dishwasher, replacing aluminum wiring, which was too short. They also replaced the GFI exterior receptacle which was broken. They arrived on time and wasted no time getting the job done. The electrician and apprentice were very polite and courteous. I will definitely call them again.
