Are you a do it yourselfer who wants to do their own electrical? Is it a small renovation or a new home? Phase One Consulting Services is now offering a limited inspection/consultation process, starting at $99.00 (less if it is a tiny project), to help you accomplish your goal. As a past Electrical Safety Inspector I know how the system works, what is required by you and how to go about installing a safe installation. My process is based on the Homeowner Electrical courses I developed and instructed at Malaspina University/College (now VIU) over a number of years. The difference is I will go to your home, or work site, which enables me to give you the best results and up to date information. It is all subject to the current condition of any pre-existing structure and/or the scope of your project. Have you already started your project? Once again I would do an on site survey that would enable me to educate you on what is required in order to pass an inspection. Be aware that if you have a Homeowners Permit it allows you a limited number of inspections. Deficiencies that require a re-inspection from the Inspector are at $135.00 each, as well as having to come back to do the re-inspection and holding up your project. I could eliminate that cost and frustration up front (See testimonial below). Just for the record, any electrical work done without due process of the B.C. Electrical Regulations and a perceived electrical incident occurs, it could put your coverage at risk of refusal by your insurance company.

Payment is due when checklist is presented on site and is by cheque or cash only

REFERRAL

February 7, 2010

To whom it concerns,

Recently we embarked on the self-build project of constructing our new home. Having moved here from another province we found codes and certain regulations to be different when it came to doing the electrical portion of our construction.

In doing this current electrical project on our home we came across situations that were not clearly identified, or clearly explained, in the simplified code book and therefore we required some assistance. We did not want to hire an electrician, however we wanted to move forward, hence we engaged the services of Ken Johnson of Phase One Consulting.

Ken was immediately there to meet with us and provide constructive solutions to all our issues. He was quick, courteous and always clearly explained what was required. His professionalism and expertise offered through his consulting services were clearly evident and very much appreciated.

We would certainly engage his services on future electrical projects – big or small and highly recommend him for any electrical consulting services that may be required.

Yours truly, Lyle and Marie Cedar of Nanoose Bay, B.C.
