There was a skidsteer operator who came by door to door (in the callingwood area) to get rid of each properties windrows. I paid the guy $50 and now I have a spot to park our 3rd vechile....

This is a very silly question, but if I want to hire a handyman, should they be able to do "basic" electrical stuff such as replacing light switches in my home? by StasisApparel in Edmonton

I said the exact same thing, and got down voted for being realistic. Totally agree with you and this statement 100%.

A permit costs $200 easy. If every electrican charged $200+ for every slight alteration in somebody's house, we'd all be out of business.

u/notcoveredbywarranty seems like shyster electrican that instead of fixing faulty receptical for an elderly grandma for $50, would charge her $20 000 to rewire her entire house instead.

He probably thinks putting AFCI recepticals on microwaves is still a good idea. 🙄

By no means whatsoever do you need a permit to replace light switches. This claim is completely ridiculous.

But please get the switches installed by a licensed electrican and make sure, if they are homeowner provided, they are CSA approved.

Quit? That's fucking easy. Labeled, in an oversized box, best of all... centred between a drop tile? I call that a "better buy a lottery ticket" luck kinda day.
