removal of old light fixtures, addition of new

I had 3 jobs for Cory to do which involved replacing an old and dangerous bathroom light fixture, removing track lighting in a bedroom and replacing a chandelier in the dining room. The first 2 jobs were done quickly and easily ( and all mess cleaned up too!), however my chandelier was missing a piece and couldn't be put up that day. Cory took a picture of the chandelier and on his own time bought the missing piece for me. He sent an employee to finish the job a couple days later. All work was done quickly, cleanly efficiently. The original quote was my end price, even with the added time and expense of my chandelier. I would not hesitate to recommend Cory and his team to anyone.

a few small electrical tasks needing doing around the house

When we moved into our new home, there were several electrical tasks that needed doing and neither of us have electrical skills. We asked our friends down the street if they could recommend a good electrician and we were referred to Cory's company (WB Electric). He responded to our inquiry right away and sent someone over to take care of our tasks within the week. We were very happy with the work and the service.

Renovation Contractor

I'm a very busy renovation contractor that has roughly three to four jobs on the go at one time. Cory's service and quality of work is excellent. I tend to be sometimes a demanding contractor as it's my job to keep the jobs going at a good pace for my client's and he and his crew bend over backwards for me and get the jobs done on time and a workable budget. I use WB electric for all my jobs and will continue to use them as we have a great working relationship together.

Hire them Today!

Thanks for the review Andrew.

We try to keep up with Andrew, who is one of the busiest contractors we work for. He is also on Homestars. Search out "Kennedy Construction"

We work for a lot of contractors and Andrews jobs by far go the smoothest with the happiest clients. He is the only number for a general contractor that I give out.

Electrical work for renovation

Cory saved me from a bind that another electrician put me in and for this, I was truly grateful. He was reliable, which you can't say for a lot of contractors, and that was important to me. I also quite liked that he communicated via email which, I found, was not common for other contractors I used. There are certainly some areas for improvement and we encountered some hiccups, but bottom line, the job got done for a reasonable price.

Temp Service for new home construction

Cory was great! Did exactly what was promised in exactly the time frame promised. And the price was more than reasonable. I am looking forward to hiring him for when we need our house wired.

Installed two timer switches for my bathroom fans.

Very good customer service and the job was well done. The installer cleaned up all the garbage at the end of the job and I was very happy with the end result.

kitchen renovation and dining room

Corey and his crew were fantastic! They were able to provide complete electrical to our kitchen renovation and dining room. Our home is of the 1930s era and the electrical is quite complicated given the knob and tube wiring. WB Electric managed the job without any issues. They were prompt, cleaned up and were very flexible in their approach to our needs. Corey also added a unique stereo system for our kitchen. We are very happy and would hire him again in a minute! No, we would hire him again in a second! In fact we have asked him to give us a quote for our living room!

Service upgrade and wiring in new subpanel

I have used Wb Electric and have been happy with the services provided and price on both occasions. I ran a small low voltage cable company for 20 years and have seen and heard many horror stories. I found Cory and workers pleasant to deal with, knowledgeable and all work was of top notch quality. I did a few changes to his original quote and found the additions were billed very fairly. The next time I called Cory in to do a job I didn’t even ask him to quote and again he was very fair with his bill. I have no problem recommending WB Electric to friends and family

New fixtures and potlights installed

Cory recently completed installation of potlights and new fixtures in our home and we are thrilled with the results. We found Cory to be professional, prompt, tidy and he also made some very helpful suggestions. We would recommend Cory and his team to anyone.

Cory, we'll be giving you a call when we get around to renovating the bathrooms.

We are also very into the latest tech and products. There are some very new products on the market that can really enhance a job or save the client some money in a pinch. It helps when your electrician knows about these products. Aside from these we also like doing tel, cable, internet, home audio. Most "older" companies don't like to touch that stuff leaving you finding another trade to hire.
