Light Installation

I was extremely impressed how professional and courteous the receptionist was. She carefully explained their protocol, prior to the arrival of the technician, which includes receiving a bio of the tech. As a single woman it is nice to know who is coming to your home. I had no problems with scheduling the work, as they were able to accomodate my work schedule. The technician arrived at time I was to expect him, which is always nice. Not only was the technician professional, he was very respectful. He put on little booties to cover his shoes and was dressed in a Blue Crest uniform. He knew I had to go to work and didn't waste any time in completing the Job. I was very impressed with his services. As an administrator in a Strata Management Company, I will definitely be recommending this firm to my colleagues.

Many of our clients are female or elderly so recognizing the technician standing on the other side of the door when they open it, provides security. There is real peace of mind in knowing the technician they are inviting into their home is representing a reputable company and there for their best interests only.
We also understand that our clients are busy people, so working around their schedule, arriving on time and working efficiently by being prepared for the scope of work expected means the least amount of inconvenience to our clients. It was a pleasure to serve you, Chelsea.

electrical panel relocation

We have an older home and after a recent break-in identified that having our electrical in our carport was not safe. Bluecrest followed all code requirements and quickly and professionally did the job. Were about to tell what was necessary and not. They placed the box nicely where we requested and disrupted very little finished drywall in the process. (other contractors had said we'd need to re-drywall our interior wall because they were going to rip it out. The team that worked on the box was also very helpful with the way they removed then replaced our siding off our carport wall! They were always mindful of mess and wore booties in the house. I addition to doing a stellar job that we are very satisfied with they also did it with good manners.. (not one swear word) much appreciated when I have a toddler around. The price was a little higher than other quotes we had but the work was very skillfully completed. They did the extra that we needed to avoid other costs. Other contractors weren't able to do that and just looked for what was easier for them.

Older homes often present challenges because of the way things were done "back then". The Electrical Code is revised every 3 years, to improve on products and wiring methods that, over time, may have proven to be problematic. Our electricians are "older home experts" and are both skilled and experienced at dealing with these challenges. The Blue Crest Team, www.bluecrest.net

Electrical service panel upgrade

They were very efficient, came during the day when it was best for us. They were very punctual and professional, they cleaned up after themselves, and were genuinely polite men.

Aside from employing technicians who are very skilled at the technical aspect of the job, we feel that the softer skills (courtesy, communication, cleanliness) are also very important in providing an exceptional customer experience. We will certainly be trying our best to figure out how to rate a 10 stars with you on our next visit. The Blue Crest Team, www.bluecrest.net

We believe that only when a homeowner has a clear understanding of their current electrical system are they able to make the best decision regarding repairs or future upgrades. This is why our Electrical Inspection Report is so detailed and our electricians spend the extra time to explain and answer all questions. We look forward to serving you again, Linda.

electrical panel work

We needed specific work done to our electrical panel and the Ray gave a thoughtful and unbaised quote before I selected Blue Crest for the job. Other electricians that said other work was necessary and predicted a project that could span weeks on the back of their business card and require other trades such as dry wallers and siding guys. Bluecrest was able to provide a detailed quote and complete the job neatly and with minimal disruption to our home in one day. They were clean, respectable and provided a generator for backup power. They even went above and beyond by cleaning and replacing all our siding using extra pieces we had around the house to fill the old panel location.

Thank you for submitting such a complimentary review on the work Blue Crest completed for you. Listening carefully to the client's needs, working within their budget and still meeting the requirements of the Canadian Electrical Code and the municipal inspection department is important to every member of our team. The specific work you needed to have done, required a very skilled and experienced electrician to meet that criteria. In regards to replacing a bit of siding to complete the job, we'll just call that a value added service for a very nice client. It really was our pleasure to serve you.

rewired bath fan & connected well pump house

We recently did a major renovation in our main bathroom which never had a fan. About 3 months later, I went to take a shower and the fan did not work. We discovered that we had inadvertently tapped into a 3-way switch and someone used the 2nd switch to turn off the basement lights, which shut off the power to the fan! I called Bluecrest Electric Ltd and Ray came to our rescue and did such a clean & awesome job of rerouting the wire. We now have a bathroom fan that is wired properly and works perfectly!
I would also like to add that before he came, they sent an email with his picture so to introduce him so we could recognize who was coming to our house.
Secondly, we had Ray hook up our new pumphouse lights and outlets. We had originally wired it in 2004, but never transferred the power for the lights and outlets from our old pumphouse. He also brought it up to code by replacing the outside outlet with a GFCI outlet and installed a cover on it. We are so pleased to have this up and running and know that it is 100% safe.
While he was here, I noted to him that we had added some new wider moulding around our new french door. As a result, we could not fit the cover plate on the light switches. We thought we would have to take the moulding off and cut a notch in it. Ray cut the plate so that it fit perfectly against the moulding. It looks fantastic and we were so pleased that we did not have to cut the moulding.
We can not say enough good about Ray and Blue Crest Electric. This was such a positive experience for us. He is truly a professional and a very nice person as well!
Many thanks Ray & Blue Crest!

Living in a home where the electrical is installed to Code provides safety and real peace of mind to the homeowner, not to mention the convenience of having things work the way they should. Our technicians are very detail oriented, so making sure the jobs final touches are straight (plugs & switches), balanced(fans)correctly installed and tested is very important. It was our pleasure to serve you. The Blue Crest Team www.bluecrest.net

Barn/Stable Lighting Fixtures/Wiring Upgrade

Bluecrest provided an experienced journeyman electrician to perform the wiring/lighting upgrade to our barn. The work included the laying of conduit and underground cable (including phone)from the barn to the hydro pole/meter as well as the supply and installation of fluorescent light fixtures in the horse stalls and main aisle, new lighting in the loft area, and outdoor security lighting around the barn.

All electrical work was done in a timely, professional manner according to the original quote. Main office staff are a real pleasure to deal with, courteous and very helpful.

We heartily recommend Blue Crest Electric Ltd.

Thank you for taking the time to review our services, D & A. It was so nice working with you both, and our technicians enjoyed this project, in spite of the occasional inconvenience of uncooperative weather conditions. This is just part of springtime in BC. The beautiful scenery around your ranch made up for the snow and rain. Having an experienced and knowledgable electrician on the job is key to the complete success of any installation. Your horses can now enjoy luxury living with the installation of electrical power to their home.

Electrical work

We recently moved into a new home. We needed several dedicated circuits to run our home based business. The builder's electrician was behind and unable to help us. Blue Crest came to the rescue. Everything was quoted upfront and various options were presented. We had four gentlemen working at various times, we were told they were coming and introduced before they came in. Everyone was extremely respectful of my home. The work was completed quickly and cleanly. I would happily recommend Blue Crest to anyone.

What a pleasure to work for you Brandy. When moving into a new home,(whether brand new, or a few years old) homeowners often find that some changes to the electrical system are required in order to meet their specific needs for that space. Well stocked trucks equipped with the right specialized and sophisticated tools means our technicians will do the job right, the first time. And if time is of the essense, we can even bring in an extra crew to speed up the process. We all wish you much success in your business venture, Brandy. The Blue Crest Team, www.bluecrest.net

Thanks for the review Karen. In many cases there is more than one way to safely and correctly address a particular problem. Informing you of these options in advance, allows you to stay in control of the job costs and also avoids any unexpected surprises at the end of the job. In our opinion, cleaning up any dust and debri after the work is completed is just part of the job so our technicians are happy to oblige. The Blue Crest Team, www.bluecrest.net
