Calgary's own 4-Star Electric Ltd. has been awarded the prestigious 2025 Consumer Choice Award in the Electrical Contractors category for Southern Alberta.

This accolade underscores the company's unwavering commitment to safety, exceptional service, and customer satisfaction over more than three decades.

Established in 1989 by John and Irene Vannus, 4-Star Electric began as a modest family-run operation.

Today, it stands as a beacon of reliability for homeowners, businesses, and contractors throughout Calgary and its surrounding areas.

The company's name pays homage to the Vannus' four sons—Denny, Dustin, Denver, and Dallas—two of whom now play pivotal roles in steering the business forward.

Reflecting on this honor, John and Irene Vannus expressed, "Winning the Consumer Choice Award is profoundly meaningful to us because it reflects the trust our customers place in our family and team."

They added, "Our mission has always been to provide timely, trustworthy service with care and integrity—treating every customer like part of our own family."

4-Star Electric offers a comprehensive suite of services, including:

Residential Electrical Services: Inspections, repairs, panel upgrades, surge protection, lighting installations, and whole-home safety checks.

Commercial Electrical Solutions: Code compliance, tenant improvements, energy-saving retrofits, and routine maintenance for businesses.

Emergency Electrical Services: 24/7 rapid response for urgent electrical issues, ensuring the safety of families and businesses.

Specialty Services: Underground repairs, aluminum wiring replacement, electric vehicle charging stations, smoke detector installations, and more.

Customers consistently commend the company for its transparent, upfront pricing—a testament to its dedication to honesty and transparency.

What distinguishes 4-Star Electric is its fusion of a warm, family-centered culture with top-tier technical expertise.

Each licensed electrician undergoes continuous training to stay abreast of the latest techniques and codes, ensuring every project meets or exceeds industry standards.

Their courteous, uniformed professionals arrive punctually, treat each property with the utmost respect, and don't consider a job complete until the customer is entirely satisfied.

With over 1,100 glowing Google reviews and a legacy of repeat business, 4-Star Electric's reputation speaks volumes.

Word-of-mouth referrals have been instrumental in the company's steady growth, as generations of Calgary families and businesses continue to choose them.

For the Vannus family, the true reward lies in the relationships they've built and the peace of mind they provide every time they complete a project.

Looking ahead, 4-Star Electric plans to invest further in staff training, adopt energy-efficient solutions, and embrace new technologies to better serve Southern Alberta.

One thing remains constant: their promise to treat every customer with the same care and respect that transformed their kitchen table startup into Calgary's trusted name in electrical work.
