Would highly recommend Shawn and team for any home electrical or renovation project. Fair prices, extremely responsive and prompt service, able to work well with other sub trades and timelines, and regular check ins on customer satisfaction throughout the project stages. Overall quality of work and professionalism was very high. Will use Island Electric again!

Shawn fit us into their busy schedule, to do a lot of electrical work in a condo we had just purchased. His staff were punctual, finished the job quickly, and we were very pleased with the work they did. We would be happy to recommend Shawn's services to anyone wanting their electrical needs met. Thanks, Shawn, great job.

Love the work these guys did! All the crew was super professional and helpful even though we were doing a lot of other work at the same time. The work was done within the allotted time and within the quoted price! Win win:) Definitely recommend these guys!

Max Richard

Locally owned, professional, quality work. After using a bigger major company in the past, and then having Island Electric Company perform some work recently, I will never use anyone else but them from now on. I would recommend them to anyone in need of electrical work/repairs.

These guys are an absolute class act. We had a complete reno and wire up grade and they made all our electrical dreams come true. Their staff went above and beyond every day to make sure we were happy and getting the best service possible. Thanks you so much for all your hard work.

I tried contacting Shawn several times about a minor electrical issue I was having. He continuously kept pushing my appointments back and eventually stopped responding. I would not recommend him due to poor customer service.

I just had the most pleasant surprise and i am thankful for the generosity of Island Electric here in Nanaimo. I had called about an Outlet that was not working . Turned out i did not press the reset button hard enough.Even though they came out to the House with tools and all ready to work they did not charge me anything . They were referred to me by a very satisfied customer and now i know why .Nice to have a company like that in my Neighborhood . I will recommend them and call them next time i have a problem with my Electricity . 5 Stars from me

Roger Baker

Highly recommended Island Electric. Shawn was very quick to respond and was easy to deal with . He travelled to Gabriola Island for us and it wasn’t a huge job for them so it was appreciated. Hard to find a professional trade company these days that still has old fashioned service. Thank you Island Electric.

I highly recommend Island Electric. I am in the middle of a basement renovation at a busy time of year. Island Electric was able to accommodate my time and needs to keep the process rolling. Very happy with the electrical work. Friendly and personable staff that asked questions throughout to make sure everything was to my satisfaction. Great work Jaro, thank you.

Alicia Campbell

Island Electric completed the electrical on our full basement suite renovation. The quality of work is exceptional and Shawn, Jaro and their team are professional and great to work with. We even had to call them out on a separate, last minute service request and they were very prompt in troubleshooting and fixing our issue. We will definitely use them again. Highly recommend!

Diana Priestley

The Island Electric Company went through our home and installed carbon monoxide / smoke detectors where needed, on all 3 floors, and repaired everything noted in an inspection report as needing attention. They were fast and efficient and I fully recommend them.

Excellent service in upgrading old panel to new. Quick turnaround from start to finish. Will definitely use their service again as we continue renovations

Russell Mcmann

As a general contractor I have used Island Electric on all of our projects for the past 5 years. The service they provide is unparalleled. The quality of their work is always high end. What really separates Island Electric is their customer service. They routinely go above and beyond to keep things moving when it comes to scheduling and keeping the build process progressing. On top of that their communication with us and our clients is very impressive. We always receive great feedback and praise from our custom build clients on their interactions with the Island Electric team. Overall a great local contractor that can be trusted to provide high quality workmanship and customer service.

Holly Shelton

We called island electric for a kitchen Reno. Kitchens are tricky and Reno’s of older homes can be a pain, especially with an attic as tiny as ours. Jaro was very informative and efficient in helping us figure out what needed to be done and deciding on lighting design. We were in a tight timeline to get the rough-in complete and they worked hard to get it done for us. Completely 100% recommend these guys. Great quality of work, tidy and organized.

I had a problem with the exhaust fan in my restaurant tripping a breaker. The owner fit me in between jobs and came down himself. He solved the problem in a efficient manner. I'm already talking with him about another job. I highly recommend working with these guys.

Awesome guys to deal with. Owner and all employees are super respectful. Doesn’t matter if you’re a builder or just the little guy doing his own Reno, these guys will call you right back and show up on time. Best experience I’ve had with any contractor yet.

We hired Island Electric to do the interior and exterior of our home renovation. From start to finish Shawn, Jaro and their team were professional, punctual and extremely reliable.
