CALGARY, ALBERTA / ACCESS Newswire / July 17, 2025 / 4-Star Electric Ltd., Calgary’s most trusted family-owned electrical service provider, has won the 2025 Consumer Choice Award in the Electrical Contractors category for Southern Alberta. This recognition celebrates more than 35 years of dedication to delivering safe, expert electrical solutions and outstanding service that feels like family care.

A Legacy That Shines Bright

The name itself is a nod to their four sons – Denny, Dustin, Denver, and Dallas – two of whom now help lead the company forward. Back in the ‘80s, four stars was the highest possible service rating, and today, the Vannus family continues to live up to that promise with each satisfied customer.
“Winning the Consumer Choice Award means so much to us because it comes directly from the trust our customers place in our family and team,” said John and Irene Vannus, Co-Founders of 4-Star Electric. “Our mission has always been to provide timely, trustworthy service with care and integrity – treating every customer like part of our own family.”
