The first thing you have to realize is the role of specialization. Many electricians tend to specialize. They may focus on such things as:

  • New construction
  • Commercial work
  • Industrial maintenance
  • Residential service calls

It is important you contact a company that has employees capable of addressing your specific electrical issue(s).

A reliable electricalcontractor can recommend the best electrician for the job, even if they cannot send someone or do not have an electrician qualified to perform your task. If they cannot, contact another dependable source – the local North Vancouver homebuilders’ association. They should be able to help.

Qualifications

Always check out the qualifications of the electrical contractor you are considering. Make sure they

  • Have the proper skills
  • Hold the appropriate licensure
  • Possess the right insurance and insurance coverage, e.g., liability as well as workers’ compensation for any employees
  • Have the right permits if the work requires them

Always ask to see the licenses. Make sure the dates are current. The same applies to any form of insurance. Remember failure to do your due diligence cannot only result in damage to your home but also legal charges if anything occurs. Your own insurance company can also invalidate your claim if they discover your choice of electrical contractor was erroneous.
