**Overview**
Action Electrical Ltd. EDMONTON'S LEADING ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR

With a full-circle approach, Action Electrical has been the electrical contractor of choice in Edmonton, Alberta since 1973. No project is too big; no problem is too complex.

Action Electrical Ltd has recently acquired Big Hill Electrical Services Ltd., a family owned and operated business since 1999 in Cochrane, Alberta. We have been looking to expand our services throughout southern Alberta.
