Mike did a fantastic job installing my Tesla charger. He came right on time, had all he needed (I sent him pictures before hand as requested), complete in the time he said, and charged a reasonable amount. I have confidence that everything is setup properly. I highly recommend him. It is important to support local businesses!

This is an excellent company to work with. Mike did some pot light installation for me and he did a fantastic job. The work was well priced, efficient and professional. Mike is a pleasure to deal with too. I've worked with several of the local companies in South Delta, and my experience with this one has been the best.

Mike was great, he installed some mysas and smart dimmers but he went above and beyond. He spoke with a colleague who sells the dimmers as our bulbs were cheap so he had to figure out a different solution. Then in an unrelated event with our complexes power Mike went above and beyond and spoke with the developers electrician to help with the issue. I am hoping our developer hires him as the strata electrician!

We had a great experience with Mike. He was always super responsive and timely from the moment we first reached out. We were unable to be at the house when he arrived so he was sure to know the plan and got straight to it, reassuring us there wouldn't be any issues. I'm always so grateful for good communication and reliable scheduling, and Mike delivered on both these fronts. In addition to that, he got all the lights up ahead of time and was lovely to chat with. Thank you!! Highly recommend if you're looking for an honest, knowledgeable electrician.

Exceptional service from Townside Electric! I can't say enough about the outstanding help I received from Mike, the Red Seal electrician and owner of Townside Electric in Delta. My home suddenly lost power on a cold Sunday night after the main electrical panel tripped—of course, I wasn't even in town when it happened. Mike came to the rescue right away, went to my home, diagnosed the issue, and restored power so that when I finally returned, the lights were on and the house was warm. His professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care turned a stressful situation into a huge relief. Highly recommend Townside Electric—Mike is truly a lifesaver!

We had an urgent electrical issue with a dangerous arc/short in our breaker box, and Mike Smith from Townside Electric came on short notice to help. He arrived right on time, quickly assessed the situation, and explained everything clearly in a way that was easy to understand. Mike gave us balanced, helpful advice and laid out our options without pressure. The work he did was high-quality, safe, and left us feeling confident about the repair. His pricing was competitive, and on top of that, he was great to talk to—I even learned a lot through the process. Highly recommend Mike and Townside Electric for anyone needing trustworthy, skilled electrical work.

Exceptional electrician - exceeded every expectation! Mike recently completed our kitchen lighting project and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, he demonstrated remarkable professionalism and expertise that's rare to find these days. What impressed us most was his incredible efficiency - he completed the work in a timely manner without ever compromising on quality. His attention to detail was meticulous and his conscientiousness throughout the entire process was outstanding. You can tell he genuinely cares about his craft. Mike's technical knowledge and craftsmanship are top-notch. The combination of his technical expertise, reliability, and genuine professionalism has earned our complete confidence. We've already hired him for additional projects and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
