Certifications
The national standard
Red Seal certification means Tim's electrical qualifications are recognized across Canada — tested against one interprovincial standard, not a regional minimum.
Permits handled, start to finish
As a certified Field Safety Representative, Tim can pull the permit, oversee the work, and stand behind the inspection — no waiting on a third party to sign off.
Trained on the equipment
Generac-certified installation and service means your backup generator is sized, installed, and maintained the way the manufacturer specifies — not improvised.
Tim Braun has been doing this since before it was a trend to hire local.
Twenty-five-plus years in the trade, and Tim Braun Electrical Services has been running under his own name in Chilliwack since 2021. Before that, decades on tools — new construction, service calls, panel changes, and everything that goes wrong in between.
There's no call centre and no apprentice sent out to figure it out on your dime. When you call, you're talking to the electrician doing the work — and when the job's done, his name is the one on the permit.
Panel schedule
Every circuit below is real work Tim takes on — residential and light commercial, laid out the way a panel directory would list it.
Residential Wiring & Panel Upgrades
New wiring, rewires, and panel upgrades for older Chilliwack homes that need more capacity or simply need it done to code.
Generator Installation & Generac Service
Sizing, installing, and servicing Generac standby generators so your home or shop keeps running through a Fraser Valley power outage.
Troubleshooting & Repairs
Tripping breakers, dead outlets, flickering lights — diagnosed and fixed, not just patched over.
Renovations & New Construction
Rough-in through final fixtures on remodels, additions, and new builds — coordinated with your other trades and timelines.
Light Commercial Electrical
Wiring, lighting, and power distribution for small shops, offices, and commercial tenant improvements.
EV Charger Installation
Level 2 EV charger circuits installed and permitted correctly the first time.
Panels, wired and labeled right
A few real panels from real jobs — the kind of finish work that makes the next electrician's life easier too.
When the power goes out in the Fraser Valley, it's rarely quick.
Windstorms and winter outages can knock out power in Chilliwack and the surrounding valley for hours — sometimes days. A properly sized, professionally installed standby generator keeps your fridge, sump pump, and heat running without you thinking about it.
- On-site assessment to size the right unit for your home or shop
- Generac-certified installation, transfer switch, and permitting
- Ongoing maintenance so it starts when you actually need it
