Built Right From the Ground Up
Whether you're breaking ground on a new build or rewiring a renovation, we bring licensed expertise and smart home foresight to every project — rough-in to final trim.
What We Cover
New Builds & Renovations
From blueprint-stage rough-in to gut-renovation rewires — one licensed team handles it all.
Full rough-in wiring from blueprint stage — panel design, dedicated circuits, and low-voltage infrastructure planned for smart home from day one.
Kitchen, bathroom, basement, and whole-home rewires. We bring older homes up to CEC code while adding infrastructure for modern lighting and automation.
100A to 200A or 400A upgrades. Fuse panel replacements, meter base, and NS Power coordination for service entrance and inspection.
Dedicated 20A circuits, under-cabinet lighting, island power, range and dishwasher circuits. Code-compliant and Lutron-ready.
Electrical for home additions, detached garages, and outbuildings. Properly sized sub-panels and load calculations to handle every new circuit.
Cat6A to every room, centralized wiring closets, in-wall conduit, and pre-wire for Control4, Lutron keypads, speakers, cameras, and motorized shades.
Lutron-compatible dimmer circuits, recessed lighting layouts, and scene-ready wiring throughout — designed alongside your lighting plan.
EV charger rough-in, hot tub disconnect, sauna circuits, and workshop sub-panels — all sized and permitted correctly from the start.
Full removal and replacement of knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring. Required for most insurance providers and essential before any renovation.
Why Wadden Electric?
We're not your average electrical contractor. Every electrician on our team is trained on both traditional electrical work and smart home systems — so when we wire your new build or renovation, every circuit is planned with tomorrow's technology in mind.
Builders and contractors trust us because we show up on schedule, coordinate directly with other trades, and get inspections passed the first time.
