Build or renovate with complete electrical safety.

The process includes several phases: 1) Temporary service entry for construction, 2) Rough-in (wiring in walls before closing), 3) Installation of the permanent electrical panel, 4) Finishing (installation of outlets, switches and fixtures), and 5) Final inspection by the RBQ. We coordinate each step with your general contractor to respect construction timelines.

The amperage determines the total electrical capacity available for your home. A 100A installation is sufficient for a small house with gas heating and few electrical appliances. A 200A installation is recommended for homes with electric heating, heat pump, central air conditioning or planning to add an electric vehicle charging station in the future. We calculate your current and future needs to properly size your service.

Yes, we install electrical systems prepared for home automation, including wiring for smart lighting, programmable thermostats, interconnected smoke detectors and preparation for surveillance systems. We can also install smart switches compatible with voice assistants (Alexa, Google Home) and create automated lighting scenarios according to your lifestyle.

We rigorously follow the Quebec Electrical Code (CEQ) at every step: use of CSA certified cables of appropriate gauge, installation of AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) breakers in bedrooms and living room to prevent fires, GFCI outlets in bathrooms and outdoors, and complete grounding of the installation. Each project is inspected by the RBQ before commissioning.

Absolutely. For renovations, we evaluate the existing condition of the wiring (often cloth or aluminum in old Lanaudière homes) and propose a complete or partial upgrade. This includes panel replacement, adding dedicated circuits for modern appliances, grounding existing outlets, and installing additional outlets to meet current needs. We minimize damage to existing walls using wire fishing techniques.

For a medium-sized new home (1,000 to 1,500 sq ft), count approximately 3 to 5 days of work spread over the different construction phases. For a complete renovation of an existing home, this generally takes 2 to 4 days depending on accessibility and complexity. We establish a precise schedule at the time of submission and adapt our interventions to other trades on the job site.
