Committed to Sustainability

At Primera Electrical, our commitment to sustainability is deeply ingrained in our core values and mission.

We understand that sustainable practices are not only beneficial for our planet but are also integral to the long-term success and well-being of our community, clients, and employees. Our sustainability approach is driven by the following guiding principles:

Local Focus for a Stronger Community 

We are deeply committed to the power of local engagement. By working and purchasing within our community, we not only strengthen its social fabric, but also minimize our environmental impact. One of our key strategies is to source materials locally, reducing the emissions associated with long-distance deliveries. Alongside this, we also focus on bulk purchasing, which cuts down on the number of deliveries and minimizes packaging waste. These practices contribute to a smaller carbon footprint, underlining our unwavering commitment to sustainability. Through these local efforts, we aim to stimulate economic growth while actively reducing both emissions and our overall carbon footprint.

Beyond compliance with regulatory standards, we strive to foster a culture of safety and well-being. We offer jobs that not only meet, but exceed fair wage standards, ensuring that our team can lead stable and fulfilling lives.

Waste Reduction and Environmental Stewardship

We are steadfast in our commitment to minimize waste and pollution across all facets of our business. In our office, we've transitioned to a paperless system, utilizing digital documents and billing, as well as cloud storage for archiving essential documents. On our job sites, we've instituted robust waste segregation measures, categorizing waste into recyclable, reusable, and landfill items. This facilitates more environmentally responsible disposal. Additionally, we make it a point to reuse materials from past projects whenever they meet safety and quality criteria. These practices not only conserve valuable natural resources but also contribute to a cleaner and healthier community for everyone.

Together, these pillars uphold our dedication to a more sustainable, equitable, and prosperous future. Our practices are constantly evolving, guided by technological advancements and the voices of our community and stakeholders. By adhering to these principles, we are proud to be at the forefront of building a sustainable world for current and future generations.

“Harrison is simply the best electrician I have ever worked with, period. He is incredibly smart and skilled beyond his years. There is no one else I would trust more to have the job done right and efficiently. You can’t go wrong hiring Primera for your electrical needs.”

— Brandon S.

“The guy’s showed up on time as usual. Harrison/Ryan are both professionals whom do not horse wasting time, right to work they went. They changed out 4 outside lights then right on to the heat-pump install of the electrical side. Great job by both, one would leave long enough to get supplies for the job and right back at it till done. Very pleased with the attention to detail and the way they carried themselves. If you need a job done look no further. Two thumbs up to you both.”

— Mike M.

“Ryan came to my place after being highly recommended by family members he’s worked for in the past. He told me that he has a passion for lighting design and loves transforming a home with proper lighting. We took his advice and our home has become very modern and appropriately lit! His recommendation of dimmer switches has already shown a return on our investment, as our Hydro bill for the last month is down 29% from the year before. If you’re looking for someone you can trust not only in your home, but with your redesign ideas, Ryan is the guy for you! Thank you for all your help, Ryan.”
