Electrical Services for Your Home or Business
Electrical Repairs and Troubleshooting
Flickering lights, outlets that stop working and breakers that repeatedly trip need a proper diagnosis. We investigate the affected circuit, explain what we find and recommend repairs based on the cause. If you have noticed when the problem happens or which appliances are running, share those details when you book.
Electrical Panel and Service Upgrades
Planning new appliances, a renovation or EV charging? We assess your current electrical demand and available capacity before recommending an upgrade. The right solution may involve an additional circuit, a panel replacement or a service upgrade, depending on the condition and capacity of your system.
EV Charger Installation
A useful home charging setup needs to match your parking space, driving needs and electrical capacity. We check the proposed charger location, wiring route and panel load before installation. An older home does not automatically need a larger service; a load assessment helps establish the available options.

Indoor and Outdoor Lighting
We install and upgrade lighting for kitchens, living spaces, garages, entrances and outdoor areas. Whether you want recessed lights, LED fixtures or better visibility at your front door, we consider placement, switch access and fixture compatibility alongside the wiring.

Renovation Wiring and Dedicated Circuits
Kitchen updates, basement renovations and home offices can change how you use electricity. We help plan outlet locations, switches, lighting and dedicated circuits around the finished space. Contact us before walls and ceilings are closed so electrical work can be coordinated with the rest of your renovation.
Commercial Electrical Services
For shops, offices and other commercial premises, we provide electrical troubleshooting, lighting upgrades and wiring for tenant improvements. Tell us about business hours, equipment needs and building access so we can discuss scheduling and any necessary power interruptions.
Need an Emergency Electrician in Port Coquitlam?
Burning smells, sparking, unusually hot outlets or buzzing from electrical equipment need urgent attention. Keep clear of the affected equipment and call 778-718-4497 to describe the issue and confirm emergency service availability.
If there is smoke, fire or immediate danger, move to safety and call 911. Do not open an electrical panel or attempt to repair exposed wiring.
If neighbouring properties have also lost power, check BC Hydro’s outage information. A wider utility outage may require BC Hydro’s response rather than a repair inside your property.
Practical Electrical Advice, Based on Your Property
You should understand why work is being recommended. Intel Power brings more than 17 years of electrical experience to repairs and installations, with recommendations based on your system’s condition, your intended use and the work needed to complete the project safely.
- Understand the issue: We explain the fault or capacity concern in plain language.
- Compare suitable options: We discuss the repair or upgrade that fits your needs.
- Plan around access: We consider parking, panel access, strata requirements and business operating hours where relevant.
- Clarify the scope: Discuss labour, materials, permits and any expected power interruption before approving the work.
Serving Port Coquitlam Neighbourhoods
We serve homes and businesses in Downtown Port Coquitlam, Lincoln Park, Mary Hill, Citadel Heights, Riverwood, Glenwood, Oxford Heights, Fremont and the Dominion Triangle, as well as commercial and industrial properties around Broadway and Mary Hill.
The neighbourhood name is only the starting point. For a detached home, we check the existing system and planned demand. For a townhouse or condo, shared electrical infrastructure and strata approval may affect the work. For a business, access and the timing of any shutdown can be just as important as the repair itself.
