Electrical Services

Licensed electricians for residential and commercial electrical work in the Lower Mainland.

Our licensed electricians provide safe, code-compliant electrical services for homes and businesses. From panel upgrades to complete rewiring, we handle projects of all sizes with attention to safety and quality.

Budget Heating & Plumbing Services provides licensed electrical work throughout the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, with a focus on the electrical upgrades most commonly needed by homeowners today. Our certified electricians handle electrical panel upgrades, EV charger installation, hot tub and spa wiring, generator hookups, outdoor lighting and outlets, kitchen and bathroom electrical for renovations, and electrical work for secondary suites and laneway houses. All electrical work in BC must be performed by a licensed electrical contractor and inspected by BC Safety Authority (BCSA). Budget Heating handles all permits and BCSA inspections as part of every electrical project, ensuring your work is done safely and to code. The most common electrical project we handle is panel upgrades. Many older Lower Mainland homes have 100-amp panels that are insufficient for modern electrical demands, particularly with the addition of heat pumps, EV chargers, and other high-draw appliances. Upgrading to a 200-amp panel is often required before installing these systems and provides capacity for future needs. We also specialize in the electrical work required for heat pump and EV charger installation, working closely with our HVAC and plumbing teams to provide seamless, coordinated service. Budget Heating is BBB A+ rated with hundreds of verified Google reviews, and all our electrical work is performed to the Canadian Electrical Code.
