Do It Yourself home improvement projects are always fun and exciting. It affords homeowners the opportunity to take ownership of a project, get the exact product they were hoping for, and learn a little something along the way. While there are countless types of home improvement projects to handle on your own, electrical repair may not be one of them. A lot can go wrong in any renovation or remodel, but those mistakes can turn very harmful or even deadly when it comes to socket or switch repair, installing switches or sockets, or relocating switches. For any electrical project, we recommend hiring residential electrical services such as Wireman Electric to shoulder the risk for you. With decades of experience relocating switches and repairing switches and all other matters of electrical repair, you can trust our experts to get the job done safely, affordably, and to your exact specifications. If the time has come to repair or install switches or sockets in your home, look no further than Wireman Electric.
How to tell if you have Damaged Sockets
Oftentimes, especially in older homes, there comes a time to replace your electrical sockets or perhaps install new ones to help modernize your living space. Our team at Wireman Electric is familiar with both installation and repair, but it often falls on the homeowner to identify the need. So, how can you tell if the electrical sockets in your home are damaged? It’s really pretty easy. All outlets have a plate that surrounds them, and that plate can hold some of the most obvious clues to a faulty socket. Burn marks, cracks, or loose wiring around the plate are all telltale signs. Further, if plugs won’t stay firmly placed in an outlet something is likely wrong on the inside. Finally, if you have observed inconsistencies in the power being provided by a specific outlet in your home that, too, is a good indication that something is amiss with the underlying electrical.
Even if all sockets and switches in your home are working well, many homeowners have the urge to install new switches and sockets or relocate switches and sockets to new locations. Projects like these involve a level of risk that the average homeowner should not feel obligated to take on on their own. Most matters of electrical doing should be left to the professionals, which is where Wireman Electric is eager to help! As a premier provider of residential electrical services in Canada, and with decades of experience, there is no electrical problem we haven’t faced. Whether you are looking for a socket or switch repair specialist or a new installation completely, you can count on the technicians at Wireman Electric to get your job done in the most timely, affordable, and professional manner around!

We got our games and living room lighting updated to new recessed LED lights. Wire-Man were true professionals with attention to detail in prepping work area thoroughly, detailing planning and measuring, quality install and proper post cleanup. We are very happy with our updated lighting and I would highly recommend Wire-Man both in terms of cost and quality.

We called several companies and Wire-Man got back to us super fast! They were able to fit us in very quickly, next day in fact, which I was not expecting! They showed up early and were very efficient. They did a great job, no hidden fees, no re-scheduling. I had them take a peek at some damaged electrical units while they were there for the initial light installation. I'd use them again in a heart beat, and I'd recommend them to anyone who needs something done with electrical. Great company, Great response time, I'm very impressed. Thank you!

This company is amazing!! Our trusted home inspector had highly reccomended wire-man. We had multiple complicated electrical issues come up in our home and prior to contacting wireman, we were told by others that it may not be something that can be an easy fix. They are professional, quick to respond, straight forward and fair with their pricing, no hidden unexpected fees after the work is done either. They were also able to easily fix our multiple issues so quickly that I ended up asking them to do other electrical work we needed done. We have never had such a positive experience with a company before.

Excellent service! I am very happy with Harman and his crew! Professional, efficient, friendly and very experienced. They know exactly how many pot lights to place and where they need to be. My living room, kitchen, and dining room now feel so much bigger. They suggest to put in a dimmer which adds so much ambiance to the rooms and saves energy. They are very helpful with all my questions and help, even after the project is done. Competitive pricing too. These guys are professionals. I strongly recommended them for all your lighting needs!

This is a truly great business to use.We had Sukh and JD here today and Harm did all the quotes before the work was done.Sukh and JD were very quick and efficient in their work and honestly the best part was they cleaned up so well like they had never been here. We have had them in for three jobs so far and that won’t be the last work they do for Yokohama Tire.For any electrical needs for companies in area call these guys first.Thank you Wire-Man.

After trying to find an electrician for a week, I saw a 'Wire-Man' Van driving around and sent them an email. Harman was very quick to reply and managed to complete the job a few days later. Super fast, professional and reliable. Thanks for everything!

I called at 11:00 am on a Sunday looking to book an appointment as soon as possible, on a weekend, for a non-urgent matter. Harman called and advised he would be at our house in 60 - 90 minutes. He was here in 60 minutes, did the 3 smaller jobs we needed. He then gave advice on a 4th job, which was something I could do. He could easily have billed us for an additional 2 hours, but instead gave a great alternative that will cost us around $25. Great service, very professional and super friendly.I would recommend Harman to anyone.

It's cliché to name people, but Harman's been great with my EV charger install. From the get-go, he doesn't do botch job quotes. It might shock you at first, but when you pry the others on what they're going to do, you'll find out that their quotes neither include permitting or an install that's up to electrical codes. Costs are competitive once that's factored in. If you want a quality installation that actually meets requirements, do business with them.

Harm was highly recommended by a friend. Him and his team were extremely professional, friendly and always punctual. We had a few jobs that needed to be done, and Harm's recommendations and completed work left us very satisfied. We required a follow-up, which he took care of promptly. We will definitely call him again and highly recommend Wire-Man to family and friends.

Wire-Man solved my issue over the phone, walking me through a quick troubleshooting process and the right sequence of breakers to reset.I’ve worked in technical service and never expect a place like this to do that, so I was pleasantly surprised when they quickly called me back to handle this at no cost. I may not be a customer for them this time, but I will be next time for sure.

Harman is fantastic! Harman came right on time on a Sunday morning and installed two new baseboard heaters for our apartment unit. I wanted to learn how to install them myself in the future, and Harman was very friendly in explaining to me the steps and some pro tips. Because he explained to me every step along the way, I know he did an awesome job installing our heaters. Harman also went above and beyond and took extra steps to make our baseboard extra stable! The rate was super fair since they offered the best rate of 10 electrician companies I called. I also appreciated Harman's chill and kind personality :) Thanks Harman!

Within the hour of realizing I might have an electrical issue, Harman was here and checked everything to make sure things were okay. I loved that he explained how things work, as it was cool to learn about what to expect, and things to look for. He went above and beyond, and even helped fix my bedroom light switch! 10/10

I would highly recommend this company. To start with Harman contacted me very promptly after I spoke to the reception person on the phone about my electrical issue. Issue being at 5 in the morning I lost partial power in my house but only 1 breaker was popped and wouldn't resest.After discussing my problem , he suggested contacting Hydro first to rule out loose wires to the house since this was after our winter storm. He didnt want to come out and charge me if it was a simple hydro issue. After contacting hydro and doing what they said which was turn off all breakers including main , wait 10 minutes and reset. All my power came back on but the one breaker felt loose and the panel made a sizzling noise when I first reset the breakers. Although the noise stopped, I was very uneasy. I contacted Harm and he came out later in the day to check things. Turned out we needed a new electrical panel, house was built in 1974 we had damage to main breakers into the house. Harm made room on the schedule to work on my house the very next day. All through the evening he was available by phone as we texted about how much wall we needed to remove for the new panel that had to be set lower for Code. We lost partial power to the house again before 4 am. By 7:30 am the next morning the 2 man crew were at my door. They were prompt and courteous, and efficient. Cleaned up the mess afterwards. Very pleased with this company. Would recommend.
