Excellence
Home Wiring for Island Workers
Nobody lives on Annacis Island, so the homes we look after belong to the people who spend their days here. Most of them sit a few minutes away in Delta, North Delta, Ladner, and New Westminster. If your breaker keeps tripping when the dryer runs, or the wiring in an older place has started to worry you, we can come by on a Saturday and leave the house tidy when we go.
Keeping Island Operations Running
An hour of a dark warehouse costs you far more than the repair ever will. We feed heavy machines, wire production lines, swap tired high bay fixtures for LED, and handle the electrical side of tenant improvements when a new company takes over a unit. A lot of this happens at night or on a Sunday, because your trucks and your line matter more than our schedule does.
Electrical Care for Strata Complexes
Many of the warehouse complexes on the island are strata titled, which means the yard lights, the shared services, and the outside units belong to everyone at once. Councils and property managers call us because a single phone number covers the entire site. We tell you plainly what we found, put a price in front of the council they can vote on, and get the work done without blocking anybody's loading bay.
Charging Your Fleet and Your Staff
Delivery vans and yard trucks are going electric, and the stalls behind your building are where they will end up charging. We look at what your service can carry, run the feeders, and set up chargers that top the fleet overnight plus a few spots for staff cars during the day. The load gets managed properly, so nothing dips when the shift changes over.

Why Island Businesses Call Townside Electric
Annacis Island has been an industrial park since 1955, and the buildings on it carry wiring from every decade since. Our crews are out across Delta and New Westminster every day, so we already know the units, the yards, and the way the City of Delta wants the paperwork handled before anyone touches a breaker.
A crew reaches you in 30 to 60 minutes.
The Alex Fraser Bridge and Highway 91 put us only minutes from your gate, and our vans are usually somewhere in Delta or New Westminster already. Tell us the building and the bay number, and someone will be pulling into your yard while you are still updating your manager.
A Real Person Rings You Back Within the Hour
Leave a message or send an email during work hours and you will hear a voice instead of an auto reply. We will say what the fix involves and which day we can get in, so you can plan your production around it.
We Know How Delta Handles Permits
The island sits inside the City of Delta, and industrial work here comes with its own inspections and forms. We pull the permits, meet the inspector on site, and hand you records that stand up when your insurer or your head office asks to see them.
How the Work Goes
We keep the electrical side easy to say yes to. Here is what happens once you call us.
Tell Us What Stopped
Give us the short version of the problem or the project. You hear back from us inside the hour, and that first conversation costs you nothing.
A Price You Can Approve
The cost comes to you in writing, in plain words, with the scope spelled out so your manager or your strata council can sign it off without guessing at anything.
We Work Around Your Shifts
Our crew comes in when the building is quiet, keeps the aisles and bays clear, and tidies the area before we go, so the morning shift walks into a normal day.
Tested and Signed Off
We test every circuit, walk you through what changed, and leave the paperwork with you. Your power is safe and you can get back to running the place.
Annacis Island Electrical FAQ
Answers to what island managers, owners, and strata councils ask us most.
How quickly can you reach a breakdown on Annacis Island?
Most days we are at your gate inside the hour. Our vans work across Delta and New Westminster, and the Alex Fraser Bridge drops us onto the island fast, so a dead panel in the middle of a night shift does not have to wait for morning.
Who takes care of the permits for electrical work on the island?
We do. Annacis Island falls under the City of Delta, so we pull the permit, book the inspection, and follow the BC safety code the whole way through. You keep the closed permit and the records for your own files.
Can you work on the older buildings from the early industrial park?
Yes. The island opened as a planned industrial park in 1955, and some units still run on gear that went in decades ago. We trace what is already there, replace the parts that are worn out, and add capacity for newer machines without tearing the building apart.
What sort of businesses do you help out here?
Warehouses, food plants, paper and packaging shops, auto processing yards, and the distribution centres spread around the island. The work runs from a lighting retrofit to power for a whole new production line, and we book it for evenings or weekends when stopping your line would cost you real money.
Do you install chargers for fleet vehicles and staff cars?
Yes. We set up charging for delivery vans and yard trucks, along with stalls in the employee lot. We check what your service can carry first, then run the feeders and set the chargers so everything fills up overnight without upsetting the rest of the building.
Do you look after strata titled industrial complexes?
We do. Plenty of the warehouse complexes here are strata titled, and we work with the councils and property managers on yard lighting, shared services, and repairs in the common areas. One contractor for the whole site keeps the billing and the history easy to follow.
Can you replace a panel or upgrade the service in my unit?
Yes, and it comes up often when a new tenant arrives with heavier machines than the last one had. We work out the load, order the gear, arrange the shutdown with BC Hydro, and get you back on before the next shift whenever the timing allows.
Do you charge anything for a quote?
No, our quotes are free. We come out, walk the site with you, and send a written price with the scope listed line by line, so nothing new shows up on the invoice later.
