Editorial Review
Our Take on Jem Electric Services
A flawless 5.0 across 72 Google reviews is a genuinely good sign for a shop trading since 2018, and the service list covers the unglamorous work Edmonton's older housing actually needs: fuse panels, service changes, insurance-driven rewires. The 24-hour listing and the satisfaction and warranty language come from the company itself, so pin down call-out pricing and permit responsibility on the first call. A sensible shortlist candidate for a defined residential or small commercial job.
Best for: panel upgrades and insurance-required rewiring in older Edmonton homes
What We Like
- 5.0 rating from 72 reviews on its Google Business Profile, read September 28, 2026
- Published hours show 24-hour availability with emergency electrical work listed as a core service
- Covers the older-home essentials: fuse-to-breaker conversions, service changes, rewiring and insurance-related work
- Licence number 295925472-002 published openly on its own website
- Trading since 2018 and handles both residential and commercial properties
- Free quotes and a one-year parts warranty claimed on its site
Things to Consider
- Pricing is not published, so after-hours and call-out rates need confirming by phone
- Appears to be a smaller operation, so crew capacity for large multi-site projects is worth asking about
- Satisfaction guarantee and warranty terms come from the company's own marketing rather than an independent source

About Jem Electric Services
Edmonton's housing stock explains a lot about what an electrician here spends the week doing. Post-war bungalows through the mature neighbourhoods still turn up with 60 amp services, cloth-sheathed branch circuits and the occasional fuse panel that an insurer will no longer write a policy against. Jem Electric Services lists exactly that kind of work on its own site, with fuse-to-breaker conversions, service changes, rewiring and a page specifically about insurance requirements. That last one matters more than it sounds. Plenty of calls to Edmonton electricians start with a letter from an insurance company rather than a flickering light.
The range goes well beyond remedial work. According to the company's service listing, it takes on electrical remodelling, new construction wiring, lighting installation and retrofits, ceiling fans in both homes and commercial spaces, appliance and electric heating hookups, security lighting, standby generators, surge protection, alarm and fire alarm systems, and home automation. Hot tub and sauna circuits get their own listing, which is sensible in a city where a backyard tub sees hard use for eight months of the year and needs a properly sized, GFCI-protected feed.
Hours are the other thing worth noting. Published hours show open 24 hours every day of the week, and emergency electrical service is presented as a named offering. Treat that as availability to answer the phone rather than a promise about how fast a van arrives on a Sunday night in February, and ask directly about after-hours rates before agreeing to a visit. Most Edmonton electrical shops charge a premium outside regular hours, and the honest ones will tell you the call-out figure over the phone.
The review record is the strongest single piece of evidence in the file. Read on September 28, 2026, the Google Business Profile carried a 5.0 rating across 72 reviews. That is not a huge volume by the standards of the biggest Edmonton outfits, but a clean average at that count is unusual, and the testimonials the company publishes point in a consistent direction: punctuality, explaining the work before starting, and picking up jobs another contractor left unfinished. One posted testimonial comes from a real estate brokerage, which suggests some referral work through agents needing panel upgrades or fixture repairs ahead of a sale.
Who does this suit. Homeowners who want one electrician for a defined job, a panel swap, a basement development rough-in, a car charger, a set of pot lights, are the natural fit. Small commercial clients, offices, retail bays, restaurants along the older commercial strips, are also clearly in scope, and the site makes the point that downtime costs money. Jem Electric Services appears to be a smaller, owner-involved operation rather than a large fleet, so a reader planning a multi-site industrial project or a large multi-family build should ask about crew size, current workload and whether the company has done work of that scale before.
Before you hire anyone in this trade in Alberta, get the basics in writing. Confirm the contractor holds a current municipal or provincial licence and will pull an electrical permit for work that needs one, which includes service upgrades, new circuits and most rewiring. The licence number published on the site is 295925472-002, and it is fair to ask for current documentation and proof of liability insurance rather than relying on a website line. Ask whether the electrician attending is a journeyperson or an apprentice under supervision. Ask who books and pays for the inspection. Ask what happens if the utility needs to disconnect the service for a day, because in an Edmonton winter that is a scheduling question, not a detail.
Compared with the alternatives in this market, the choice generally sits between the large branded companies with dispatchers, membership plans and flat-rate books, and the smaller independents who quote per job and answer their own phones. The second group tends to come in cheaper on straightforward work and gives you the same person start to finish, while the first group wins on same-day capacity during a cold snap. This company reads as the independent end of that spectrum, with the 24-hour listing as its answer to the availability question.
One year of warranty on supplied parts, free quotes and free consultations are all claims made on the company's own site. Worth confirming what the warranty covers on labour as well as parts, and getting the quote itemised before work starts.

Jem Electric Services FAQs
Is Jem Electric Services open 24 hours?
Its published hours list open 24 hours, seven days a week, and emergency electrical service is one of the services named on its own website. That indicates the phone is answered outside normal business hours, but it is not a stated guarantee of response time. Confirm the after-hours call-out charge and expected arrival window when you ring.
What is its Google rating?
A 5.0 average from 72 reviews, read on its Google Business Profile on September 28, 2026. A perfect average at that review count is uncommon, though 72 reviews is a moderate rather than large sample, so read a handful to see whether the jobs described resemble yours.
Does it do panel upgrades and fuse box replacements?
Yes. Service changes and fuse-to-breaker conversions are both listed services, along with a page on insurance requirements. This is common work in Edmonton's older neighbourhoods, where a 60 amp service or a live fuse panel can hold up a home insurance renewal or a property sale. Service upgrades normally require an electrical permit and a utility disconnect, so ask who arranges both.
Does it handle commercial work as well as houses?
Both are listed. The company describes residential and commercial electrical services across Edmonton and surrounding areas, and one published testimonial relates to securing an office sign after a wind storm. For larger or multi-site commercial projects, ask about crew size and comparable past jobs before committing.
How long has the company been operating and is it licensed?
Its website states it was founded in 2018 and publishes licence number 295925472-002. It also describes itself as family owned and licensed. As with any electrical contractor in Alberta, ask to see current licensing and liability insurance, and confirm that permits will be pulled for work that requires them.
Are quotes free?
The company's site advertises free quotes and free consultations, along with a one-year warranty on parts it supplies. Those are its own claims. Get the quote itemised in writing, and ask separately what the labour warranty covers, since a parts warranty on its own leaves callback labour unaddressed.
Will it install a hot tub circuit or an EV-style dedicated feed?
Hot tub and sauna electrical work is a listed service, and dedicated appliance and electric heating circuits are too. These jobs hinge on whether your existing panel has the spare capacity and breaker space, so expect a load calculation and, in some older Edmonton homes, a recommendation to upgrade the service first.
Is Jem Electric Services licensed and insured?
We checked 0 of 1 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.
