This month the focus of EIN’s company profile is on a well-established and respected electrical contractor. The firm has been in business for nearly half a century and provides an expanding range of services to meet the growing demands of the electrical industry.

Custom Electric Ltd. has been in business for over 45 years serving Western Canada. Located in Calgary, Alberta, the company serves residential, commercial and industrial clients. Custom Electric also recognizes that the industry is changing and is working to progress alongside the industry by offering services such as solar and electric vehicle charging installations.

It has a unique ownership model, as it is completely employee owned and operated. Every employee works to ensure the company succeeds and maintains the highest standard of operation.

The team is made up of dedicated professionals focused on quality and safety. New employees always undergo safety training and any time someone new arrives on an existing job they receive safety a safety orientation specific to that project. Further, the company holds weekly toolbox talkss that reinforce the safety culture. The meetings are led by a companywide safety committee that meets each month to discuss safety policies and review field staff reports. The entire safety program is overseen by two certified on-staff safety professionals, and the team has earned a certificate of recognition from COR, an occupational safety and health accreditation program.

Custom Electric operates a 24/7 emergency service operation, an aerial bucket truck for hard to access areas, and a team of experts who can work in any industry operating in Western Canada.

One final primary service option offered by Custom Electric is a focus on preventative maintenance.
