What we take on

Expand a service for the short version — each topic has a full detail page for SEO and sharing. No JavaScript required.

Custom homes & new construction

Custom homes need an electrician who reads plans, respects the architectural intent, and shows up when the schedule says rough-in — not “when we get there.” Jigawatt Electric works with builders and homeowners across Calgary, Cochrane, and Rocky View County who care about finish quality.

Renovation & remodel electrical

Renovations are where “small” electrical jobs become big if the existing service, grounding, or aluminum heritage wiring is hiding surprises. We plan for Calgary’s mix of 70s–90s stock and modern loads so you are not patching problems twice.

Panel & service upgrades

Panel upgrades are about safety and headroom: old breakers, crowded buses, and undersized services do not get better with time. We size work to what you need now and what you are likely to add in the next decade.

Lighting & control

Lighting sells a room, but bad trims, buzzing dimmers, and mismatched colour temperature undo expensive design. We install for how the space will be lived in — not just what fit in the box on rough-in day.

EV charger installation

EV charging is simple until it is not: 200A services still have finite capacity, and long feeder runs matter. We install chargers that match your driving, your panel, and your future — without fear-based upsells.

Troubleshooting & repairs

Symptoms are easy to list: half the house dead, a breaker that trips when the dryer runs, lights that pulse when the furnace starts. The cause is rarely “one bad breaker.” We trace the path, verify grounding and bonding, and explain what we see before we bill mystery labor.

How we work

A straight line from first message to closed job — built for custom homes and renos where surprises are expensive.

  1. Conversation

    You describe scope, timeline, and neighbourhood. We ask about loads, finishes, and whether permits are in play — no truck roll until expectations match.

  2. Clear quote

    Written scope where it matters. If we need a site visit to quote honestly, we say so before we book.

  3. Rough-in & coordination

    Labels, photos when helpful, and communication with your GC or other trades so inspection and drywall stay on schedule.

  4. Finish & walkthrough

    Devices seated square, trims aligned, panel legible. We walk you through what changed and where shutoffs live.

Owner-led, not dispatch-driven

Built for homeowners and builders who want one accountable electrician — not a rotating cast. Planning, rough-in, and finish stay in the same conversation. More on About and photo-ready stories on Work .

Common questions

A few quick answers — the full list (with structured data for search) lives on the FAQ page .

What areas do you serve?

Jigawatt Electric serves Calgary, Cochrane, and Rocky View County. If you are just outside those boundaries, ask anyway — we take selective projects based on scope and schedule.

How quickly can you respond?

Timelines depend on workload and permit requirements. For planning-heavy work (custom homes, renovations, panel upgrades), we will quote a realistic start window. Emergencies are handled when capacity allows — call and we will be honest about availability.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes for most residential and small commercial inquiries. Complex jobs may require a paid site visit if significant diagnostic time is needed before we can quote; we will tell you that up front.
