You work with a contractor who puts YOU first, every step of the way. 

Nineteen years into his career, a local electrician has decided to step out on his own. After doing electrical work for 19 years, Randy Wiebe launched Renovolt 360 in 2024. 

“It’s been good,” says Wiebe, whose focus has largely been in the residential market for the past two decades. “Over the years, I’ve done renovations on my own houses, and most of it has been electrical.
