Why Mimico Homes Need Professional Electrical Wiring
Mimico's diverse housing stock presents unique electrical challenges requiring specialized expertise.
Heritage Cottages & Early Homes
Built 1890s–1940s in Mimico Village and along Lakeshore, these charming workers' cottages and railway-era bungalows contain original knob-and-tube wiring that insurers now require replaced before providing homeowner coverage.
Post-War Apartments & Bungalows
1960s–1980s apartments and split-levels near Royal York and Norris Crescent often feature aluminum wiring and outdated 60-amp panels insufficient for modern appliances requiring professional COPALUM remediation and service upgrades.
Waterfront Condo Towers
2000s–2020s high-rises in Humber Bay Shores, San Remo, and Lakeshore Village require specialized condo electrical work including EV charger installations, panel capacity upgrades, and ESA coordination for unit renovations.

Call (905) 299-0004Signs Your Mimico Home Needs Rewiring
Don't ignore these warning signs indicating your home requires professional electrical attention.
Visible Knob-and-Tube Wiring
If you see ceramic knobs and tubes in your basement, attic, or during renovations, your early 1900s Mimico cottage contains dangerous outdated wiring requiring immediate professional replacement for safety and insurance.
Frequent Circuit Breaker Trips
Circuits that constantly trip when using appliances indicate overloaded wiring, undersized panels, or failing connections inadequate for modern demands in older Mimico homes and apartments.
Warm Outlets or Burning Smell
Heat at electrical outlets, switches, or panels, or any burning odor, indicates serious connection failures or overloaded circuits requiring emergency electrician response to prevent house fires.
Two-Prong Ungrounded Outlets
Older two-prong outlets throughout your Mimico home indicate ungrounded wiring unsafe for modern electronics, appliances, and devices requiring three-prong grounded power for protection.
Insurance Company Requirements
Receiving letters from your insurer requiring electrical inspections, upgrades, or threatening non-renewal? Mimico insurers mandate knob-and-tube removal and aluminum wiring remediation before providing coverage.
Home Built Before 1950
Mimico Village cottages and homes built 1890s–1940s likely contain original electrical systems never designed for modern loads including appliances, HVAC, technology, and lighting requiring complete rewiring.
Condo Electrical Capacity Issues
Planning major condo renovations or adding EV charging in Humber Bay Shores? Older condo panels may lack capacity requiring upgrades and coordination with property management and ESA.
Adding EV Charger or Heat Pump
Installing electric vehicle charging or upgrading to heat pump systems? Older 60–100 amp panels in Mimico homes lack capacity requiring service upgrades to 200 amps for safe reliable operation.
