How do we request service for a tenant or site issue?

Include these details to speed things up:

• Property address + unit number (if applicable)

• Short description of the issue (what’s happening and when it started)

• Any safety concerns (burning smell, sparking, water exposure, partial power loss)

• Who provides access (tenant, lockbox, onsite staff)

• Best contact person and phone number onsite

• Parking/loading instructions if relevant

• Deadline or preferred appointment window

For anything urgent, go straight to: Contact Crew Electrical Services

Can you coordinate access with tenants and onsite contacts?

Yes. Crew Electrical Services can coordinate access with tenants or onsite contacts as long as clear access instructions are provided ahead of time. If a lockbox is used, include the code and instructions. If a tenant needs notice, confirm the best contact method and time window.

Do you offer priority scheduling for urgent issues?

For urgent issues that affect safety or building operations, priority scheduling is available based on availability and scope. If the issue involves burning smells, sparking, buzzing from a panel, or partial power loss, treat it as urgent and contact the team right away.

Do you provide upfront pricing or written quotes?

Yes. For most service calls and common repairs, Crew Electrical Services can provide clear, upfront pricing once the scope is confirmed. For larger scopes (like panel upgrades, multi-unit work, or tenant improvements), you’ll receive a written quote based on the site conditions and requirements.

Can you invoice by property, unit number, or work order?

Yes. To keep your bookkeeping clean, invoices can be structured with the identifiers you use most, such as:

• Property name/address

• Unit number

• Work order/job number

• PO number (if applicable)

If you need separate billing contacts or “send invoice to” notes, include that when the job is booked.

Are you licensed and insured for commercial work in Alberta?

Yes. Property managers typically need this for vendor onboarding and compliance. Crew Electrical Services can provide documentation upon request (for example, proof of insurance or credentials) so your vendor file stays current.

Do you handle permits and inspections in Calgary?

Yes, when permits/inspections are required for the scope of work. If permitting applies, you should expect:

• Clear explanation of what requires a permit

• Permit handling and inspection coordination as part of the workflow

• Documentation/close-out confirmation after the final inspection (where applicable)

Do you provide photos or documentation after the job?

Yes, when it’s helpful or requested. For multi-unit and commercial work, documentation can include:

• Before/after photos (where appropriate)

• Notes on what was repaired/replaced

• Recommendations (if something is unsafe or nearing failure)

• Permit/inspection details (when applicable)
