What our clients say
Posted on Grant MaclachlanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good performance, disappointing because you fitted one element a few years ago and it didn’t last, seems expensive tooPosted on Petra SimpsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our power meter board needed earth bonding before the Wells technician could install a new meter. Travis from Henderson Electrics came around the next day on time and in the pouring rain. He checked and re-checked that everything was working as it should.

FAQs
What does an electrician do?
Electricians are certified professionals trained to handle a wide range of tasks, including the installation, maintenance, and repair of electrical systems in residential properties. Specializing in electrical work, they ensure projects are completed safely and to a high standard. At BW Henderson Electrical, our team of expert electricians is proficient in everything from heat pump and air conditioning installation to security camera setups, solar power systems, and home theatre installations.
What's the difference between an electrician and an electrical engineer?
While electricians and electrical engineers may seem to have similar roles, their responsibilities are quite distinct. Electrical engineers typically work in office environments, using computer software to design new products and solutions, and they often oversee the manufacturing process. In contrast, electricians are hands-on professionals who work directly in the field, handling tasks such as wiring homes, inspecting, and repairing electrical systems.
Do I need an electrician to install a light fixture?
At BW Henderson Electrical, installing indoor and outdoor lighting is one of our specialties. If you’re thinking of tackling a lighting installation on your own, keep in mind that without proper training in electrical work, it can be risky. It’s safer and more efficient to rely on our expert team to ensure the job is done correctly and to the highest standard.
