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.

Is Waterdown part of Hamilton or its own thing?

Officially part of the City of Hamilton (the old Town of Flamborough amalgamated in 2001), but it operates like its own community. Waterdown sits between Hamilton and Burlington and we work it as part of our active Golden Horseshoe area.

New-build EV charger install in Waterdown - what should I expect?

Most new-build homes east of Hamilton Street have a 200A service with capacity ready for an EV charger. Install is typically a one-day job — scope covers the run from panel to where the car parks, the breaker, the ESA permit, and the inspection. Detached garages and longer runs add to that. Send us a panel photo and we will quote in writing.
