Being a mom I can totally relate to those  early morning or evening practices for swimming, soccer or ice hockey practice. One of the biggest concerns I have is leaving or coming home  in the dark!  I was always worried about my safety and my child’s,  that’s why I would highly recommend motion sensor lights as they provide the safety and security we need by  illuminating the front door and/or driveways. The best added bonus to this is they turn on and off  by themselves saving your money on energy.

Here at Expert Electric – we care about your safety. Just call our office 604-681-8338 and we will be happy to help you.

Even if you like shopping around and looking for the best deals, it’s always preferable to have all electrical services for your home or building handled by one company. It makes your life much easier. You wouldn’t need to worry about tracking down different providers every time a new issue comes up with your electrical system. However, this convenience comes along with even more importance placed on the company you choose. If your electrical company isn’t reliable, you could be in for a world of headaches with them attempting to handle all your needs.

A powerful advantage of getting your electrical services from one company is the ability to save time. If an electrician is called out to check your outlets one day, he might inspect your electrical panel and the other components of your system as well. If another issue arises, this time something related to the panel, he would already be familiar with your system upon his arrival. Instead of needing to figure out the various aspects of your electrical setup, he could get right to work.

Not all electrical companies are created equal, and some might be a better fit for you than others. When you’re unsure about the reliability of a provider, you might be reluctant to put too much faith in them. On the other hand, the right company can take all the stress out of maintaining and fixing your electrical system, regardless of what might be wrong.

Fun Fact:  “To talk turkey,” means to speak candidly, directly, plainly and/or bluntly. There are several possible explanations to the origin of this phrase.  Some support a link to uncensored familial conversation around the Thanksgiving dinner table; Others say the phrase is linked to the actual sounds a turkey makes, because the male turkey’s “gobble, gobble” is a basic, unadorned, matter-of-fact kind of vocalization.
