Real reviews from rewiring projects we've completed.

Electrical Wiring FAQ
Common questions about rewiring and wiring installation in Toronto.
Whole-home rewiring typically ranges from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on home size, accessibility, and existing conditions. A 1,500 sq ft century home with knob-and-tube usually falls in the $12,000-$18,000 range. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your specific situation.
Yes, most electrical wiring work requires permits in Toronto. The ESA requires permits for new circuits, rewiring, and most modifications. We handle all permit applications and coordinate ESA inspections as part of our service.
Most rewiring projects take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. A typical 3-bedroom century home averages 4-5 working days. We can often maintain power to critical areas throughout the project.
Modern techniques minimize damage. We use fish tape, flex bits, and strategic access points to route wiring with minimal openings. Some patching is typically needed, but we plan routes carefully to reduce impact.
Knob-and-tube isn't inherently dangerous when in good condition, but it lacks grounding and wasn't designed for modern loads. Main concerns are deteriorated insulation, improper modifications, and coverage by building insulation. Most Toronto insurers require replacement.
Yes, most projects can be completed while you remain home. We work room by room, maintaining power to essentials like refrigerators. We'll discuss any brief interruptions in advance so you can plan.
Absolutely. We provide ESA inspection certificates, detailed invoices, permit records, and photos when requested. This documentation satisfies insurance requirements for knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring remediation.
