TDR Electric

What TDR Electric does

TDR Electric Inc. is a privately held, full-service electrical contractor founded in 2016 and headquartered in Vancouver, BC, serving the Greater Vancouver / Lower Mainland market. The company delivers three integrated lines of business: residential electrical services (solar panels, home generators, service panel upgrades, smart home devices, electrical restoration, and EV chargers), commercial electrical services (tenant improvements, structured cabling, surge protection, electrical vault cleaning, infrared thermal imaging, and recurring maintenance contracts), and EV charging infrastructure (Level 2 and Level 3 installations, EV Ready Plans, and BC Hydro/CleanBC rebate administration). Its underlying operating stack combines Knowify project management, Accubid estimating, and cloud-based dispatch/scheduling software to coordinate field crews, with services delivered directly by employed licensed electricians rather than through subcontractors or resellers.

The business model is project-based professional services with a recurring-revenue maintenance-contract overlay. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service residential and commercial work (free estimates, per-project billing, financing available for select jobs), recurring commercial maintenance and service contracts, and EV-infrastructure project work. The go-to-market is sales-led enterprise field sales targeting commercial general contractors, real estate developers, property managers, strata councils, government, healthcare institutions, and residential homeowners across Greater Vancouver. Distribution is entirely direct, supported by builder partnerships, BC Hydro Authorized Contractor status, and designations as Tesla's Recommended Electricians and Auto Charger Recommended Electricians.

Named customers include CDC Construction, Edge Construction + Design, Govan Brown, Chandos Construction, Axiom Builders, Etro Construction, BLT Construction, VPAC Construction, New City Construction, Onni Group, Radiance Energy, Kinetic Construction (IPD partner), Corrections Canada, and Providence Health Care, with a notable 2024 anchor contract — the $6.5M, 176-unit MHVC THE CONNECTION multifamily residential project delivered via Integrated Project Delivery with Kinetic Construction. The company is founder-led, with Taylor Ross as CEO (named to BC Business Magazine's Top 30 Under 30 as an EV Charging Industry Leader in 2024) and Liam Phagura as COO.
