Blakney Electric Ltd

We chose Blakney Electric for our Generac generator installation based on a past experience, but this time was disappointing from start to finish. The installation took place on January 29, 2025. Prior to that, a representative explained the process to us, and I was told I’d need to be home on the day of the install. I wasn’t sure why I had to take the whole day off, especially with no power and freezing temperatures. I arranged to be home in the afternoon, as I was told the work would be completed by 1PM and someone would walk me through how to operate the generator. Instead, the work wasn’t finished until around 4PM, and the only interaction I had was a worker briefly telling me they were done—no explanation, no instructions. The next day, I inspected the installation and was immediately disappointed. The wiring had not been run along the foundation as told, and the propane lines were mounted on a metal post over 3 feet high—something we were never told. I was also unaware a second company, Maritime Fireplace, was involved until they unexpectedly contacted me. Both companies later acknowledged the miscommunication and assured me the issues would be addressed once the ground thawed in spring. In late April, I followed up and was told I was on the list. Eventually, I was informed the work would be done the next day and that I didn’t need to be home. After more delays, I came home one day to find the electrical wiring had been buried—but the propane lines, my main concern, were still untouched. To make matters worse, wires had been screwed directly into my siding, leaving visible holes and black marks on my less-than-a-year-old home. I sent an email to clarify that the exposed propane lines were still an issue. I was then told burying those would cost an additional $2,500. I was open to paying it—if it would actually fix the problem. We met to discuss options, I was told the propane lines could be buried, but it would still require two raised posts. That didn’t solve the issue—I would still disliked the appearance. Though the siding was cleaned, they didn’t have color-matched caulking, so now I’m left with visible damage. Two weeks later, I received a surprise invoice for $523—apparently for burying the wrong wires, something I never requested. On top of that, my lawn was damaged and now needs to be replanted. After spending $20,000, I’m extremely disappointed with how the installation looks. Overall, this has been a frustrating and disappointing experience. If I could go back, I would absolutely choose a different company

Very professional and efficient. They made our generator install as easy as possible;

Awesome service. Professional, diligent, and never try to oversell anything. They even tried different approaches to save customers money

We purchased a Generac. Generator from Blakney Electric in Moncton. Their service from start to finish was exceptional. A few days ago the power went out when I wasn’t home. My wife was working in the basement at the time. I got home noticed Generac was running. She said she noticed a blink of lights but that’s it. She didn’t even know power went out. Generac ran from 3:30 to around 6ish. Doing exactly what we hoped it would. It also used very little of the propane tank’s capacity. (2%) Which is obviously great. I highly recommend both Blakney & Generac

We have been customers of Blakney Electric for several years. They manage our Generac standby generator and do a great job. We had a service issue this week and they were both professional and prompt. The communication from the office was very good and Travis came to the house and immediately discovered and fixed the problem on the spot. We rely on our generator to be "ready at all times" and Blakney Electric is a strong partner in making that happen.

Amazing service!! I wish there were more than five stars to give. Glen didn't just install the mini split, he spent the time to show me how to run it and made sure I was happy with my choices the whole way through the process. Definitely recommend!

On Friday Oct. 10th I had my Generac serviced by one of your Technicians named Travis, and I must say this man takes pride in his work, he did his job and before he left he not only made sure that all was done well by re checking his work, but also ran a wiper over the unit that he serviced, I would say that he is an employee that is an asset to your company..

We have been using Blakey Electric for years, they have always been just a phone call away and have quickly resolved any issues. This was the first time we had Glenn. He quickly assessed the situation and discussed our options; we opted for a one time only option and so far, ir has worked!! Thank you Glenn!!
