A great deal of Richmond's housing went up between the 1960s and the 1980s, and the electrical service in those houses was sized for a very different household. Panel upgrades, a subpanel for a secondary suite, and 200-amp service for an EV charger in a carport are routine work across Seafair, Blundell, Broadmoor and Steveston.
The other half of the trade is commercial: tenant improvements in the No. 3 Road retail units, warehouse and lighting work in the industrial blocks of Bridgeport and East Cambie, and restaurant fit-outs across the Golden Village. Strata and high-rise work in City Centre is a specialty of its own. Listings note licensing, service area and whether after-hours calls are taken.

Guides and roundups written for Richmond, with the businesses linked inline.
Nothing on Alexandra Road is a hidden gem. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.
The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
I live four blocks off Moncton Street, so this is the Steveston I actually use: where to park before the Bayview lots fill, how to buy fish straight off the boats at the wharf, the honest answer to the Pajo's versus Dave's question, and why the history here is not decoration.
