Recommended Customer Reviews

They were the best electricians I could have asked for. They were creative in how to do our project with as little damage to the walls as possible. They were fast, very commutative and went the extra mile on everything! Things we didn't think of, they did. I could not recommend a place more, 100/10! Will be using them for any electrical work I need in the future!

We'll be suing Thunder Bay Electric. They rewired our entire house during a remodel and are now in the process of having everything rewired and fixed because every time we used outlets in particular rooms the circuit breakers tripped. According to the two companies we brought in to assess the damage it is an absolute disaster. And possibly the work they did was illegal.

Great guys, fast reply, excellent work. They are no nonsense and give a very honest assessment. I highly recommend them!

Excellent service provided to install a level 2 EV charger in our home; including city inspection . Timely and responsive, knowledgeable and competitive. We will call these guys from now on.

This company did an amazing job adding additional circuits in my home. They answered all my questions while performing high quality work. All the work passed the City inspection the first time. I will only use them and highly recommend them.

Thunder Bay did a great job installing 2 ceiling fans for me. Will use them for any more work I'll need in the future. Thank you guys!
Very good price also

I chatted with a friend just to chat and he just happened to mention he was getting electrical work done as we chatted. And, what perfect timing because I was considering getting my rental unit completely rewired from the old wire&tube to bring it up to code as the apt was vacant. I called Thunder Bay the next day and Ricardo arrived as promised did his examination and gave me a detailed written explanation the following day. I didn't even consider in getting two other estimates and signed the contract. LSS Thunder Bay worked everyday to meet my deadline before the new tenant was to move in. Ricardo even cleaned one of my old chandeliers before he reconnected it, wow he went above and beyond. Big hugs always to Thunder Bay Electric. Mabuhay Ricardo & Richie!

I found Ricardo and Thunder Bay here on Yelp and boy, am I glad I did! He showed up within the hour and fixed our blown fuse so quickly, it's like it never even happened! Do yourself a favor and call Thunder Bay for any and all electrician needs!

Thunderbay just completed the entire electrical job of my new cafe/restaurant and I could not be more impressed and happy with theIr work. From start to finish, they were exceptionally professional, helpful, and precise. They are very thoughtful in their work and clean and conscientious. Look no further if you want to find an electrician that you can hang on to! They are hard to come by! Thunder Bay is the BEST!

Three separate sets of track lights: None of them working.
Thunder Bay shows up.
Half an hour later, problem solved.
'Nuff said!
