How fast can you get to my house?

Same- or next-business-day for most residential calls in Huntsville, Hamilton, Burlington, and Waterdown. Cottage calls in deeper Muskoka are typically next-day. Send a panel photo and a description of the job to (705) 242-9090 or via the request form and we will get back to you quickly.

Are you ESA licensed?

Yes. We are an ESA Licensed Electrical Contractor (LEC) and our installers are 309A Master Electricians. Every job that requires it gets pulled on an ESA permit and inspected - non-negotiable, and the only legal way to do electrical work in Ontario.

What does a typical service call cost?

A standard residential diagnostic visit is a flat call-out fee plus billable time on site. We quote the fix in writing before any work starts - no surprises on the invoice.

Do you work in Oakville?

Yes - Oakville is part of our active Golden Horseshoe coverage. Same scheduling cadence as Burlington and Hamilton.

EV charger install in a newer Oakville home - what is the typical project?

Most newer Oakville homes have plenty of panel capacity for a Level 2 EV charger. Charger install with a 50-foot or shorter run is typically a half-day job — scope covers the conductor, the breaker, the conduit and box work, the ESA permit, and the inspection. Charger model, panel proximity, and exterior vs. interior install drive the variation. We quote in writing.

Are you familiar with Oakville Hydro service coordination?

Yes - Oakville Hydro is its own LDC (not Alectra). We have the service-upgrade, meter-base, and disconnect-reconnect process worked out with them.
