Electrical for homes in Allendale

Small 1950s bungalows share the streets with newer skinny homes and duplexes built on split lots.

1950s and 60s homes often have 60 or 100-amp panels, few circuits per room and ungrounded outlets. A panel upgrade usually comes first when adding a hot tub, EV charger or basement suite.

Infill homes and garden suites often need a service upgrade or a separate meter, so bring an electrician in early in planning.

Powering a detached garage for a heater, workshop or EV charger means a buried feed from the house, often to a small subpanel.

A basement suite needs its own interconnected smoke alarms and enough circuits for a second kitchen.

Common electrical jobs

  • Panel upgrades and new circuits
  • Outlets, switches and lighting
  • EV charger installation
  • Smoke and CO alarm wiring
  • Tracking down tripping breakers

Seasonal tip for Edmonton

Before winter, check block heater outlets and the circuits your holiday lights will use; spring and summer are the easiest time for outdoor lighting and EV charger installs.
