Meet Lime Electric

Tyler’s story

Tyler has spent 17 years in the electrical trade. In that time he’s worked through just about every problem a house can throw at an electrician — the breaker that won’t stay on, the outlet that quietly died, the light that only works sometimes — along with the bigger upgrades a growing household needs, from panel upgrades to EV chargers and hot tub circuits.

The business has been serving the North Shore since 2012. The name on the van has changed from TY Electric to Lime Electric, but the owner and the phone number haven’t.

Homeowners, exclusively

We work for homeowners — houses, suites, townhomes and strata units — and don’t take on new builds or large commercial projects. Most of the week is service calls: repairs and troubleshooting, dead outlets, tripping breakers and lights that stopped working. Small jobs are genuinely welcome. The rest is planned upgrades homeowners book ahead — the full list is on our services page.

Why the lime?

The rebrand is meant to be fun and a little loud — “Don't hire the lemons. Hire the limes.” Behind it is a serious standard: reliable arrival and communication, respect for your home, a clean work area, and straight advice without a sales pitch.

Who you talk to, and who comes to your door

Call or text 604-700-3414 and you reach Tyler directly — not a dispatch queue. The visit itself is done by Tyler or an experienced journeyperson electrician. As the company grows, we only bring on licensed journeyperson electricians with several years of hands-on experience: people we trust to troubleshoot properly, do clean work and treat homeowners well.

We aim to reply to calls, texts and service requests within 15 minutes during working hours. Sending a photo or short video of the panel or the problem by text is the fastest way to get a useful first answer, and it’s often all we need to give you a realistic range.

Clear options, your call

If a repair will do, we say so. If something genuinely needs replacing, you get the reasoning behind the recommendation and the options side by side, so the decision stays yours. We work across North Vancouver and West Vancouver.
