LGD Electric / Service Areas / Electrician South Granville
Licensed Electrician Serving South Granville: retail fit-outs, character residential, rewires.
South Granville runs along Granville Street from West Broadway south to West 16th Avenue, mixing a dense art-gallery and high-end retail corridor with character single-family residential on the side streets between Oak and Hemlock. LGD Electric handles both sides of the South Granville stack: commercial LED retrofits and fit-outs along the Granville corridor, and panel upgrades and heritage rewires on the residential streets. Every job is pulled under a City of Vancouver electrical permit (Vancouver runs its own permit authority independent of Technical Safety BC).
