Electricians

Used Orser services many times. Always first rate.

Shock doctors testimonial We have had some 'less than perfect' electricians to our house in the past and then last year we brought in Chad from The Shock Doctors in Orillia. From the first contact, he was very accommodating with an appointment time, to punctual arrival, and a courteous walk-through the house, inspecting our electrical system. Chad even used booty covers to keep our floors clean. Then he described the problem in detail, gave us a well detailed estimate and stuck to it upon completion of the job. We were upgraded from 60 amp to 100 amp system! And they gave us a discount coupon for future work. Later he and another colleague came to bail us out on a Sunday afternoon power outage. They spent an hour diagnosing our problem. Since we joined The Shock Doctors reward program, we didn't even have to pay for the service call. Great people to work with! Owner Cheri Carman sends out monthly informative newsletters, and they very dependable. We would recommend them to anyone in need of electrical repair or upgrading of their service.

On January 25, 2018, ,Canadian Industrial Services Electrical Contractors, was hired to install two fluorescent light fixtures, a 4 ft fixture in the basement (I supplied the newly purchased fixture & fluorescent bulbs) & a 3 ft fixture over the kitchen sink which had to be purchased from Gilmours Home Hardware which is located less than 5 minutes away. I already had a new 3 ft fluorescent bulb which I told the electrician to use. The original fixtures had to be removed from the ceilings. I was appalled when I received the invoice ($241.68+$31.42 tax =$273.11) I was charged 3 hours for labour plus recharged for the 3 ft fluorescent bulb as well as nickeled & dimed for screws, anchors, marrettes, connector. When I complained The receptionist said that she told me upfront that I would be charged for two electricians which was never mentioned. If I had known what they would charge to install the two fixtures I would never have hired Canadian Industrial Services. In my opinion this is not a Senior Friendly business, they overcharged, treated me rudely when I enquired as to why installing two simple fixtures required Two electricians, did not attempt to readjust the invoice & charged me for my own fluorescent bulb which they said they didn’t use but is missing. I would not recommend Canadian Industrial Services, Electrical Contractors, for any private home electrical service.

Best company in Peterborough! Highly recommend!
