Reviews of CBS Electrical Contractors Ltd (Contractor)

Jonathan Morris

CBS Electrical is a fantastic and trustworthy electrical contractor company. Wes was through and comprehensive in his quoting and demonstrated spades of integrity throughout. Russ was top-notch: always on time, clearly skilled and an expert in his trade, answered our questions, and completed the work efficiently and cleanly. Our work was repairing an electrical supply for our outdoor studio and expanding lighting options from our existing fixtures. No job is too small for this team. The work was important to us - and it was clear it was important to them too. 5/5 - and we’ll use them again when we get an electric car charger installed!

Peter Jones

We have worked with CBS Electrical Contractors on a wide variety of projects through the years. We found their approach very professional and consistent leaving us with the knowledge that they can be depended on . Typically they go that one step further to ensure a great outcome, leaving both us and the customer very satisfied.We would highly recommend Wes and his team.

The company is quick at responding and turning around fair estimates. Each employee I have encountered has been friendly, does not try to upsell, and works in an efficient manner. I will continue to use this company for my commercial projects.

Tom Desaulniers

Great electrician company. Everybody was friendly and helpful including the owner Wes and our electrician Mike. I made several changes to our electrical plan on the fly and they were very friendly and professional about making those changes. Great company to deal with.

Adam Jonathan Con

Hands down the best electricians and tradespeople I've ever worked with. Professional and the level of communication and transparency are worth their weight in gold. I've used other companies and they just don't hold a candle to these guys. In my house for 3 days complete revamping my lighting in a 3 level house. Great people. Sensible and good advice. Responsive to any concerns. So easy going and pleasant. Nothing awkward about working with them. If you've ever worked with other tradesfolks, you will understand that there's a wide spectrum of communication skills and professionalism - wide. This company is simply the best. Their experience provided me with sound advice. Just because you can, it doesn't mean you should. They had my best interest in mind and happiness with the work was always paramount. The lights in my house are absolutely stunning. Bravo!

Lisa Grey

Wes (owner) was very responsive and booking an appointment was done in a timely manner. Jacob (technician) was professional and did an excellent job.

Donna, Phil Harmuth

I would highly recommend CBS electrical. They were professional, efficient and very responsive to my questions.

CBS electrical does a great job at a fair price and the crew are easy to communicate with and listened to my needs and concerns.

kelly thiel

I needed an Electrician and was told to give CBS Electrical a call, I am extremely happy that I did. We had some baseboards heaters that were improperly put in. I had told the owner Wesley what had happened and he said he would send one of his guys over immediately. Mike the Electrician came over and explained to me how my baseboards were installed , and how they were not installed correctly. He explained what he needs to do to correct the install and to have it up to code. I am so grateful to CBS Electrical for their prompt and professional manner in dealing with my home. I highly recommend Wesley Belcher and his team at CBS Electrical and will be using them again in the future.

steve gibbs

They provide excellent service and workmanship. As one of their sub contractors I look forward to seeing more of the CBS team.

Cassie Livesey

Great experience dealing with the contractors. Cut's in the wall were all done cleanly, and wires were all hidden cleanly behind the tv so they were not visible. Showed up on time, very professional. I will definitely be calling them again!

Regina Grishko

Quick, professional and reliable. They were able to come install the light fixture within one day! Very impressed and we will continue using them in the future.

Christian Jax

Supplied and installed 60A wiring and GFCI spa buddy package for our hot tub. Thanks to their Project Manager, Keith Scott, for such a great price and timely install! We were in our Hot Tub that night and everything was running smooth! We highly recommend CBS Electrical!

Heather Allen

I found CBS to be responsive, professional, and courteous. I left a message online near end of day on a Friday, and within three minutes I got a return phone call. The technician offered to do a "free fix" by phone, if possible, and when that didn't work, they had someone out to my home the next business day first thing in the morning. Later that day, the fellow that took my original call, contacted me to make sure that my problem had been resolved, which it was. Rarely, do I find any business that offers this kind of customer support--it was impressive.

One Family Owner

Extremely happy choosing CBS Electrical. They did not balk at doing a very small job, they were able to schedule a job date super quickly (almost next day), and were flexible about the time and date. They provided a quote in advance, did the job, and very quickly resolved a bill issue without hesitation. I would definitely recommend this company and would definitely use them again.

Larry

I bought a new slide in range and needed the electrical receptacle moved so the range could slide in further toward the wall. CBS provided very prompt and professional service. Very satisfied.

Harvinder Samra

Awesome service. I looked at the reviews on Google and figured if they were half as good as people were saying, it would be good service. Definitely deserving of 5 stars.

Jennifer Polle

CBS sent out Brian to complete a long laundry list of electrical projects at the home we have just purchased. The wait was only a few days. Our impression is that the work was done very well. Lee and Wes were always friendly and accommodating on the phone. Would definitely use CBS Electric again.

Kimberley Colpman

Wes and his crew go above an beyond! Every project is treated with care and their attention to detail is exemplary. CBS is a very capable and professional company. You can't go wrong with this team!

Paul Latour

CBS Electrical, headed be Wes Belcher, is a great community company with excellent people. I am the ED of the HeroWork Society, a charity that renovates other charities. Wes and his crews have helped on several big projects, providing expert advise and electrical services that have really strengthened out community. Kudos to the CBS team, truly a company that cares!

Rob Shearer

CBS did a satisfactory job with our new house build in Nanaimo. The new wiring met code and the first stages were done in a timely manner. However, we were met with a scheduling issue on CBS's side which affected our occupancy date. We also have an outstanding item (kitchen cabinet lighting) now 9 months after the final bill was paid. We understand pandemic stocking issues have made scheduling more challenging, and our outstanding item is relatively minor however we are now looking into finishing the job ourselves or hiring another local contractor. For the price I paid I would have hoped for more complete job. Again, the company did a satisfactory job but certainly not one worthy of five stars.

François-Michel Pellequer

I sent an email, with pics attached, asking for an outlet to be added in my kitchen. Got an fast professional response from Wes, with a quote and an install date! Christian came in less than a week later to do the work - on time, polite, thorough - and all is done to perfection. I highly recommend CBS Electrical. Thanks Wes and Christian.

Wade Roberts Plumbing

We had the chance to work recently on a project with CBS Electrical. The technician they had on site, Mike VanSaanten; was very attentive to details which were even beyond his scope of work. Not to mention his demeanor was extremely professional and friendly. We wound up talking with one of the owners to let him know and he seemed to be professional as well as easy to talk with and appreciative. So far all my experience with CBS Electrical has been great!!

Raxnar

Christian and Brayden were great. Friendly, fast, and clean work. Upgraded Smart Panel from 24" to 42" for more room. Great job.

Jerry Faust

I've used CBS Electrical Contractors twice this fall to install ceiling fans and light fixtures. Two different electricians from CBS provided service, but each one was professional, courteous, friendly, and on-time. Both were able to remove my old fixtures and install the new ones in fairly short order, and it was easy to work with Wes to schedule the visits.

Michelle Newman-Bennett

Highly recommend! Jake was our technician and he was fabulous. He was courteous, on time, and professional. I will be using this team again in the future.

Gabriella Martinelli

We completely renovated our Oak Bay home and CBC Electrical upgraded and rewired our entire home. I was very impressed with their professionalism and work throughout the project. I recommend them highly.

Steve Burgess

I’ve known Wes and his crew for many years because I’ve always used them on my kitchen, bathroom and basement renovations. Excellent communication and attention to detail, the jobs have always been completed on time and budget, no surprises. We at Victoria Builders highly recommend CBS Electrical to anyone, big or small!

Sacred Heart

The professionalism of Wes and his team are evident in their work. Wes was great from the first time that we met him, he was patient and thorough. He wasn't "selling" more than what was required. We would definitely continue to use their services. Thanks for the great work! --- Nov. 27, 2020 Couldn't help but use their services again :o) Lee has been really helpful. He came to our location twice, and took the time to explore the best options for us. That is very much appreciated. It shows the care and professionalism in delivering what is needed in the least amount of steps. Jordan, who undertook the job itself, was punctual, efficient, and hardworking. He completed the job in no time. We highly recommend CBS Electrical for your electrical needs, and projects.

MJ Sacco

Was recommended CBS from a friend... so I trusted my friend, and ended up extremely happy with both the results of the work, as well as the fair price I was charged. The on-site crew were absolutely amazing and very professional. I was in regular communication with Wes, who was prompt in his responses to all my questions and additional work requests... and for these reasons I am happy to recommend CBS.

Mike Scharien

Had Connor come out and the guy did an amazing job worked his tail off! Definitely recommend and will use for all my future electrical needs! Also Wes was incredible at organizing everything.

Paul Sharpe

CBS was great! I reached out via their website to get some help. Received a response within the hour and had an electrician booked the next day. Friendly service and the work was efficient and completely professional.

Lindsay Block-Glass

We love CBS! Connor was pleasant to work with, creative with his problem solving, and got right to the job(s) at hand. Plus he cleans up after himself!! 10/10 would recommend. Thanks guys!

Dorothy Hartshorne

Quality work and great customer service at all times!!!

Brittany V. Vis

We hired CBS at my work this summer. It was a rushed job that turned into more work than we had anticipated at the start of the project. The CBS team did a wonderful job and were very accommodating of all the other contractors we’ve had in the space who each commented on how great CBS was to work with. Our IT guy even said that the IT wiring that was done was “second to none”. Our space looks great and functions well. We couldn't have asked for a better electrical team to work with. I highly recommend them!

Steven Hutchings

This is the third time I've hired CBS Electrical. Always polite and professional and were able to come out on short notice to replace a fluorescent light fixture with a much better LED so I don't have to cook in the dark. Will definitely work with them again. Thanks!

Patricia Manly

We interviewed several electricians and we were happy with our choice. Wes had good suggestions and his team was courteous, professional, and a pleasure to have around the house. Communication was straightforward and all questions and requests were answered clearly and respectfully.

Vicky Hayward-Wrench

CBS came the same day as I called to do a battery replacement of emergency light pack in a really awkward place over a stairwell. The technician was careful and efficient. I appreciated the quick response time to the service request and the efficiency of the technician. Thank you!

Tamer Shafik

Awesome service from Wes and his team. Extremely helpful and professional throughout. A special thank you to Lee for going the extra mile.

Julie Hikes V.I.

Great, friendly, fast service and they stayed within my budget! Will definitely use again :)

Foord Construction Ltd

CBS Electrical is very detail orientated, professional and personable. As a contractor in Victoria the value of having an electrical crew that is reliable, consistent and proactive in problem solving has been a great addition to our company. Since working with Wes I have found zero desire to work with our other electrical companies ! highly recommend including CBS in your project large or small !

Astrid Frayne

Great work, thank you!

Branny

Above and beyond service. Thanks everybody. You’re awesome!

Vance Smith

The crew at CBS was always courteous and knowledgeable. We had a major renovation as well as some minor work done. both times we were extremely please with their work. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. And they volunteer with Herowork!

Jean Bigelow

I have sued this company twice since I moved into my new home for two different projects. I found them to be very knowledgeable, responsive and overall great to deal with. You won't go wrong in hiring this team!

Luna Collective

I recently hired CBS Electrical to have some work done on a newly rented commercial space. Everyone I interacted with at CBS was professional and friendly, and made things easy for someone who has zero experience with electrical work. I ran into some issues with my landlord and Wes was extremely flexible and understanding when I had to change things on him twice. Ed was the technician who completed the work and he did a great job. I would definitely recommend this company.

Laura Brackenbury

Professional service, quickly identified faulty sockets, replaced where necessary and repaired where could. Communication was clear and work great. Much appreciated.

Cindy Kukucska

I used CBS to repair, then replace, kitchen pendant lights. Electricians were professional and responsive, always right on time. I appreciate the level of customer service I received from Wes and from the support team on the other end of the phone.

Chris Gaudet

The best electrical company in town.

Linda Morrison

Fast, efficient and excellence service. Highly recommended.

Barbara Edie

I've used CBS Electrical a few times to change, install, and recommend lighting fixtures for both interior (office) and outdoor lighting. The service is prompt, professional, and seemingly effortless in getting things done easily and well.

dave eso

This was my first time working with CBS, and I was mightily impressed. Herman was a real pro: helpful, knowledgeable, punctual, and prompt. I really got the sense he was helping me decide the best course of action for me, rather than the more expensive route. Very much appreciate his service at my rental suite. Will definitely use CBS in future!

Roger Martisius

Fast, reliable, great communication skills. A job well done in a short period time. We would recommend CBS Electrical to any of our clients. Thanks for your service!

Just Me

I contacted CBS after a referral from a friend. Immediate response and work started within days. My major stressor was an autistic son who was not thrilled moving his belongings and having strangers in his space. Wes was very understanding and accommodating by spreading the work into two half days which helped us immensely. Russ and Carl were absolutely amazing, patient and non judgemental. Over two days they called before arrival , were on time, had a great sense of humor with us and amongst themselves which I must say I found very refreshing these days. The quote I got was spot on, they finished on time, put everything back in its place and took all the scraps and extras with them before leaving. They turned a stressful project completely un-stressful for us. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to use them again or recommend them to my family and friends. Much appreciated

Peter Smither

CBS is an amazing company. Not only are they truly professional in all they do, they never hesitate to assist in community events. Both the company and the electricians themselves give back to the community by assisting in projects by donating both their time and materials. These are the guys and girls you want to do work in your home.

Danna Suntok

Thanks Jordan for your excellent work. The company was on site the next day, the electrician was on time, quickly diagnosed and resolved my issue. Very please with the service I received.

Jarren Butterworth

CBS or "Can't Be Stopped" Electrical does absolutely perfect work at extremely competitive prices. With electrical work you want a crew that knows what they're doing and cares enough to do things right, and that's what you get with CBS. These guys have a passion for electrical work.

Ivan Mishchenko

Thanks to Wes and the team for excellent service, competitive costings, great ideas, and on schedule. No surprises just great work and delivery.

Robin Pettyfer

CleanMotion Inc., a provider of network chargers for electric vehicles, worked with CBS Electrical on a project for installing chargers. Friendly and quality work.

Gitte LaRocque

I had them install pot lights and do a quote. Super professional, great quality job, superb customer service - I was so happy with the work. I had a safety issue the following day with something unrelated that I did myself. They came by my home right away to check it out for me. I was so impressed with this company. Thank you Mike and Lee

Emmy Labonte

wonderful secure service , clean and on time . Office staff also very helpful thank you

Janae Vlaar

Ed from CBS came twice while we were renovating our kitchen. Both times he was kind, professional, and on time. All of the work he did works perfectly and rates are reasonable. We will be using CBS again if we need more electrical work.

Kayla Creighton

Wes and his team at CBS were extremely knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. We were needing to upgrade our existing knob and tube wiring to meet code for our "new" 1934 home that we purchased. Suffice to say that this old 30's home was full of surprises and at no point did we feel Wes' team couldn't handle the challenge. They worked quickly and were very mindful of the old plaster to minimize any unnecessary holes. Working on a tight timeline they pulled other crew members in to make sure the job got done before the insulation contractors showed up on their heels. Truly appreciated and would surely use again and reccommend to anyone.

Chad Kruper

I have nothing but great things to say about Wes, Scott, and the whole team at CBS. I have used CBS Electrical for two residential renovation projects and was very happy with the experience and final product. Wes was extremely easy to deal with and gave me an immediate confidence in their abilities. CBS is punctual, knowledgeable, and easy-going. Highly recommended.

Connect Hearing Canada

Very qualified crew. Excellent service. Dedicated team and always exceeded expectations.

B McKechnie

Would recommend CBS Electric. My call was routed through to Wes who helped me problem solve from the start, booked me promptly, and explained their billing rate. Lucas was excellent as the electrician sent out to the house, He arrived on time, was friendly throughout, communicated and. explained at each step, and showed pride in doing a solid, clean job. Also Lucas consulted with Wes as his supervisor by phone whenever needed, and exchanged good ideas of how to get my job done safely and at best cost. They looked for what had caused the electrical system failure to try to fix that as well so it would not occur again. Definitely recommend CBS Electric.

sital shoker

we have used them 3-4 times now, each time their service has been very quick and professional. I would highly recommend them. Thanks

Marilynn Stone

Lee Grant, Christian and the crew were fantastic to work with. They went out of their way to make the install happen quickly as I had a time deadline I was working with. Their quality of work is top notch. I will definitely work with them in the future if I require electrical service. I will also recommend them to anyone who asks about electrical contractors.

Joanna Danzinger

Wes at CBS Electrical had my job worked on within days of 1st contacting him. Steve came out to do the job and it was supposed to be an easy fix but got complicated fast.

Mark Stephenson

I recently had some electrical work done at my place, and was never quite sure if it was all done correctly.

louise maurakis

Wes and the crew from CBS replaced all the hallway fixtures in our five storey condo. Wes was super helpful with the strata owners' fixture selection process. When the time came for installation the electricians were in and out of the building in one day. On top of everything else, they gave a a great price for great work!

Neil Cherneski

Wes and the Team it a great job to deliver high quality work and was able to complete the job in a short amount of time. Highly recommend the team at CBS!

Maria Whittaker

As a small business owner, CBS Electrical were able to meet the needs for the tenant improvement / renovation of my yoga studio and at a fair cost which didn’t negatively affect my budget. They were incredibly fast at replying to my inquiry and was even able to send one of their electricians to my studio to get the job done the same day I spoke with them. The electrician who did the work was courteous and professional. I highly recommend them for any small business needs!

Karen Hoskyn

We have built a new garden shed and used CSB to install a power line from our garage to the shed, a panel box in the shed, inspect wiring done by our builder, and make any adjustments to bring installation to code. (eg don't want to burn our house down because we put electrical in the garden shed!). We had previous experience with Keith Scott who did the electrical for an addition we had built. He once again provided excellent service in arranging service through CBS. The electricians that showed up were on time and did quality work. The cost was as we expected. I definitely recommend CBS to others. Karen in Langford

Don Moore

First time using CBS Electrical and it won't be the last. Mike Showed up at the scheduled time. He was very friendly , which is really important to us. It took 20 minutes and he offered to clean the light shade for us. We recently painted and because the light was moved , the previous paint was showing on the ceiling and Mike asked for a paintbrush and painted the area to match the new color. The service was above and beyond. Thank you Mike and CBS Electrical.

Cynthia C

We recently used CBS Electric to upgrade some service in our condo building. Wes came to do the quote and Mike came to do the job. We got excellent service, both guys were professional, on time and great to deal with. Mike worked hard and walked through everything he had done at the end, explaining everything in easy to understand terms. The price was fair and options were explained at the outset, so that we could choose the best value for what we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company and will use them for any future electrical jobs!

Keith Rowan

I recommend CBS. They are competent, fair and stand behind their product.

I had the power knocked out in my bathroom and had Lee call me and walk me through troubleshooting. Found out it was simple GFCI wall plug reset that was needed.

Ok ! Wes is great! He had helped me with so many things over last ten years! I had lots to do and really needed someone to be fair and honest , which he was ! He had great solutions and help with products. Amazingly patient with me through some tuff stuff. I am also demanding and he always faced these issues. I had been in bad shape at one time with another contractor. Mistakes and ripped off by them! CBS came and made sence of it and truely did a great job. Love these guys!

Stargazer depends on working with the best of the best. For electricians you can’t beat CBS’s work. Their amazing service also makes working with them a pleasure. Highly reccomeded.

Sara Gallo

Excellent service! Called late in evening and they came next day. Very affordable too! Highly recommend.

Best electrical support I have received on Vancouver Island. From three renovations in Qualicum Beach to my first in Victoria Wes’s group has shined with on-time arrival to professional completion of the work. He knew how important the electrical sequencing was to the project and his electrician Ed brought his commitments through. Thanks for a great effort and a successful completion: on time, on budget.

Shaughnessy Hill

Professional and helpful staff. We will definitely use for future work.

I have used CBS multiple times now for personal residence jobs as well as for large jobs in my strata corporation. They are an extremely professional company who does great work and provides timely responses to any questions asked. Their prices are extremely competitive in the Victoria area and they are quite flexible with scheduling. For example, our Strata was getting CBS to replace all the interior lights in our building and we had a major flood the week before the job. CBS pushed our install by two weeks with no complaint and even broke up the job to come back in a month to do one floor that wasn't able to be completed due to the water damage. I would recommend CBS to anyone who is looking for a great local company that is professional and has competitive rates.

They show up! On time, and professional. Great value and excellent workmanship.

Nick MacDonald

CBS was excellent to deal with, very reliable, professional and fair. Would not hesitate to use their services again.

Mike Taylor

CBS did a great job upgrading our panel and all the electrical work for our new heat pump installation. Thoroughly satisfied with Wes and his crew - work was completed on time and very reasonably priced. Two years ago they also installed in-floor heating in our ground floor bedrooms with the same excellent results. Thank you CBS!

Justin Byjork

Worked for this company starting out in the early days, and I can attest to the fact that this company was formed around the basis of strong customer service, quality electrical installations, and a finished product they will always stand behind. The owner is excellent to work for, and the proof in CBS's strength and value as a company is evident by what it has grown into today! If you need professional advice or work, look no further! This company is 5 star for a reason!

carol mcneill

When we did a major renovation CBSElectric did all the work. We were their first customers in Victoria and we were happy with the work and the workers. Ten years later, we wanted to make some additions and changes and are still pleased with their professionalism and work ethic. Thanks again, guys! We love the patio lights!

Ryan Graves

Had a great experience with CBS Electrical. They worked with our townhouse strata to keep costs reasonable. Communication was really good and staff were a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Lee!

Wes Belcher and his team provided reliable, excellent service and very competitively priced for many of my developments and renovations from 32 suites in Esquimalt, 31 suites in Fairfield and half a dozen single family homes. I look forward to continuing to work with CBS electric. They demonstrate exemplary quality and service. Urban Core Ventures

CBS Electrical has done a variety of work at two of my residences. Wes' staff were always efficient, polite and competent. I would not hesitate to refer CBS to others.

Alan Hoffman

I was notified about the new BC Hydro EV charger rebate and I applied and CBS Electrical was the first company to respond. One of their senior electricians, David came over for a site visit and we determined where the Tesla EV charger would be placed. We also determined that additional wiring needed to be undertaken. Installation was done in a timely fashion, all of the wiring was very neat and professional and David was a consummately nice chap to have working in our home. My wife and I are extremely pleased with everything that was done. We will be using CBS Electrical later on in the year to complete additional electrical work on our property. Highly recommended company.

Jerri Lynn Sarson

They were very efficient, punctual & knowledgeable. Natalie was very polite, pleasant and helpful. Edward was young and able & efficient. Experienced and reasonable & Wes was a pleasure to work with. Jerri Lynn

Jill Sexsmith

Mike from CBS did a great job with our home EV charger project; he even helped me install a cable protector which allows me to close the garage door safely.

Katie Cole

I was very impressed with the professionalism and quality of service from CBS. I would highly recommend them.

Brian Rigley

The job was to replace 7 fuse panels with 7 breaker panels. It was done to code, approved by the City of Victoria, and done with minimal impact on tenants; no fuss, no bother. Highly recommended.

We are very pleased by the work that CBS and the team provided over the course of the last month, they resolved a number of issues for us Thank you!

Mike McDougall

I’ve been dealing with CBS for around 10 years now. The staff is always so courteous and will go above and beyond to get the job done.

Kyle Ryan

Wes and his service tech were awesome to work with

Stephanie Johnson

CBS electrical was super fast and SO good when I contacted them with an urgent request having no expectation they would actually be able to make it as fast as I had hoped! Jordan that came was incredibly nice, knowledgeable and did even better than what I had asked. I definitely recommend and will be contacting them again the next time I need an electrician! Thank you Wes and team!

Barb Hambley

I can't tell you how impressed I am with the professionalism and service of CBS Electrical. I had my thermostats switched out. My husband and I could not figure out how to re-set the programs resulting in freezing cold and way too hot when we didn't want to be! After two days of trying ourselves we called CBS. They came out within 2 hours and switched them out for us - thank you Christian! Wow what service! I am and will continue to recommend this company to all my friends and family

Renay Maurice

I found the technician extremely polite and personable. He worked quickly and efficiently and explained everything to me. He came prepared and had the parts needed for the job. I would highly recommend CBS.

Sherry Belcher

CBS did an excellent job of installing pot lights and exterior lights on our home. What impressed me most was they were on time, did quality work and left no mess - very clean! Oh, and they did the complete job, no return visits a week or two later. Amongst the best service I have ever had on anything.

fred weiss

Did a great job. Very organized and efficient with time. I would use them again. Very happy!

K. Forge

Professional, responsive, and polite and ensured we were satisfied with the service.

Chris Ragan

There is a reason these guys are 5 star rated! I always get great service, speedy responses and a high level of communication on my projects. It would be hard to use another electrician after using CBS. Highly recommended!

Lauren L

Herman fixed our light fixture issue so fast! He managed to get down here the same day to assess, (we got lucky they had an opening) and had it fixed by the next day as some new parts needed to be retrieved. He was so polite and informative. We're grateful to be able to see in that room again! I noted that Herman was excellent at maintaining social distancing and being Covid safe in general. He also ensured his work area was nice and tidy when he left which I really appreciated. All that coupled with professional and friendly service made this a great experience. Thanks!!!

Garnet Badger

Today, a 'silver seal' inspection was completed by Lee Grant, after my husband did a lot of renovations to our manufactured home. As the walls were 'open' this required that they take out a permit to complete the work. In all, this required several visits to our home, and a few repairs required in order to pass the inspection. On each occasion, the electrician showed up within ten minutes of the expected time, which is uncommonly timely! Lee was a pleasure to deal with, as were the electricians. We are very appreciative of the work that was done and the level of professionalism. On one occasion, we left the electrician to do his work, leaving the doors open because it was a very hot day. We returned to find that he had secured the home before leaving, which was not our experience with a different company that we contracted to do some other reno work. Locking a door isn't difficult, but we were grateful for the consideration. We highly recommend CBS Electrical! Thanks so much for making this such a painless process for us!

I had CBS do a kitchen renovation for me. The kitchen turned out top notch, and I was extremely satisfied. In addition, they had phenomenal customer service. Thanks guys, keep up the great work!!

matt thatcher

CBS installed a fan switch for us the following morning that we called them, they were on time and very professional. We would definitely recommend them and would work with them in the future.

Joe Brunwald

Well managed, timely and we'll valued service.

Chris Biickert

I have hired Wes and CBS Electrical on many occasions and they always do a great job and give great service. I will keep using them and recommending them to people looking for a job well done.

Darren Enns

I have worked with Wes and the crew at CBS for a number of years on a number of projects ranging from single family homes to multiple residential and commercial complexes. The team has always gone above and beyond to provide the service required to make every project run smoothly. CBS approaches any design issues or conflicts that arise with a collaborative problem solving approach that works to minimize cost implications to the Owner. I would highly recommend the team at CBS for any project large or small; for their honest commitment to service of their clients.

Ernest Christmas

Twice now I have used CBS for some small jobs which they were very happy to perform. Our electricians were personable and efficient, and I will be calling them in the future for any other electrical work.

Louise Mayer

Quick, efficient and friendly service. Very happy with the work done by Ed and so helpful in fixing my old light fixtures.

Kristy Kilpatrick

Excellent, professional service. Very reasonable cost, cheerful and helpful.

Rafael Oei

This is our first experience with CBS. CBS Electrical responded to our request to install our street lamp promptly. The appointment was set within the week, and they had our new lamp installed with no fuss. The journeyman who attended to us was very knowledgeable, and knew exactly what to do and how to handle what was left by the previous owner of my home, who had installed the lamp we had to replace. He also seemed a good mentor as while my wife and I were there, he guided the apprentice that was with him with clarity, with precise instructions, and with patience. We received prompt, efficient, and very friendly service; and the cost was reasonable too. I would recommend CBS.

Lee and Zac came promptly to do an outside wiring job for us. Work was explained and done very neatly. CBS is now my go to electrical firm after using another old established firm for many years. Thanks Wes!

Elliott Betty

I live in a condo in Victoria, B.C. CBS Electrical has installed hallway and stairwell lighting in our condo along with some exterior lights. CBS recently installed a wall heater with a timer in our Sunroom. The electricians involved were very conscientious and did an excellent job along with being a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend CBS Electrical for any and all electrical matters.

MrJeanValjean24601

They came out March 25 to our home in Oak Bay to install 2 gfi outlets in our backyard and repair the wiring to a lighting fixture. When the electrician (Hi Ed!) came to do the work on the 25 he was fast, respectful and cleaned everything up. I was worried that my small job wouldn’t be worth their time but they were very responsive and things went smoothly. In a town full of contractors who regularly Ghost you it’s nice to meet one who gets it. I recommend CBS Electrical and will use them again.

Had an issue with a series of three track light fixtures running off a dimmer switch; lots of flickering, and a loud buzzing heard coming from the lights and from the switch panel. The situation was disruptive enough that two employees had to be displaced, and we needed a fix asap. Tech from CBS arrived the same day, on time, ran some quick tests, swapped out a component, and gave us clear and specific maintenance feedback so the issue would be unlikely to re-occur. The total repair process took less than twenty minutes and now the circuit is running noise- and flicker-free. Invoice was reasonable, and in particular I noted the absence of an upcharge on the materials (which I have come to expect from local contractors). Will definitely hire again next time we need electrical work.

I. J.

Very happy with the service. It was an emergency because we had no power on one side of the house. It wasn’t easy fix but the young fellow came and figured it out in timely manner.
