D&S Electric: Looking Behind Walls!

Company Profile

Mar 12, 2017

D&S Electric was founded in 1985 as a residential service provider in Williams Lake, BC and has since grown into an electrical contracting leader in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors throughout Central and Northern BC.

D&S Electric has set itself apart by employing a highly trained and certified team of electricians, experienced estimators and project coordinators who enable the company to undertake projects of all sizes. D&S is also committed to ensuring it maintains the proper tools and equipment for every job they undertake, including the only local bucket-truck with a 50’ boom. In addition to their electrical services they place significant focus on project estimating, management and coordination in all their divisions, including Automated Controls, Data Communication and Life Safety Systems (emergency lighting).

Of note is their focus on electrical inspections. D&S recognizes that existing electrical problems are the leading cause of property damage in home structural fires.
