The West Shore is no longer just a bedroom community; it is a booming hub of new construction, family homes, and commercial growth. At Victory Electric, we have watched the skyline change from Goldstream Avenue to Royal Bay, and we have scaled our services to meet the needs of this dynamic region.
Whether you are finishing a basement suite in Westhills, wiring a new workshop in Metchosin, or need an emergency repair in View Royal, our vans are in your neighborhood daily.
Electrical Services for the Modern West Shore Home
Homes in Langford and Colwood are generally newer than in town, but they have high power demands.
EV Charger Installations
The West Shore is commuter country. If you drive electric to avoid the Colwood Crawl, you need a reliable Level 2 charger at home.
Westhills & Bear Mountain
We install dedicated circuits for Teslas and other EVs in garages and carports.
Load Management
Even newer homes can have maxed-out panels. We install smart energy managers to allow EV charging without a costly service upgrade.

Secondary Suites & Carriage Houses
Langford and Colwood are leaders in allowing legal suites. We help homeowners turn their properties into mortgage helpers.
Suite Metering
We install dual-meter bases so you can bill your tenants separately for hydro.
Safety Compliance
We ensure your suite meets fire separation and electrical code requirements for legal occupancy.
Heat Pump Connections
With the push for energy efficiency, many West Shore homeowners are ditching gas or baseboards. We provide the dedicated 240V wiring required for new heat pump systems and air conditioning units.
Rural & Acreage Services: Metchosin & Highlands
Moving out to the Highlands or Metchosin brings different electrical challenges than living in a subdivision.
Generators & Backup Power
Power outages can last longer in rural areas. We install transfer switches and backup generator connections to keep your well pumps, freezers, and lights running during winter storms.
Workshops & Detached Garages
We trench underground lines to power detached shops, barns, and gate systems. We know how to handle the rocky terrain often found in the Highlands.
Septic & Well Pumps
We troubleshoot and wire dedicated circuits for essential rural utilities.
Commercial Electrical in Langford
Business is booming in the West Shore. We support local contractors and business owners with:
➤ Tenant Improvements: Wiring for new retail spaces and offices in the expanding downtown Langford core.
➤ Warehouse & Industrial: High-bay lighting and 3-phase power for businesses in the West Shore Business Park.
We understand the specific building styles of the area, from the 1970s split-levels in Triangle Mountain to the Geo-Exchange systems in Westhills.
Fast Response
Because we are already working in the area, we can often respond to emergency calls in Colwood and Langford faster than companies based solely in Victoria.
Permit Experts
We handle all electrical permits with Technical Safety BC, ensuring your renovations are fully compliant and documented.
