Older housing stock around the Kawarthas throws up the same handful of problems: a 60 or 100 amp service that cannot carry a modern kitchen, aluminum branch wiring, knob-and-tube still live behind the lath, and a seasonal cottage that has quietly become a year-round house. All of it is fixable. Most of it is cheaper to fix properly once than to keep patching.
Every job that needs one gets an ESA notification filed before work starts and an inspection booked at the end. You get the certificate. That paperwork matters when you sell the house or make an insurance claim, and it is the part homeowners most often discover their last contractor skipped.
What we do
Service & panel upgrades
100A and 200A service upgrades, panel swaps, meter bases, masts and grounding. If your breakers trip when the kettle and the microwave meet, this is usually the conversation.
Rewires & problem wiring
Whole-house and partial rewires, knob-and-tube removal, aluminum wiring remediation, and the junction boxes previous owners hid inside walls.
Circuits, devices & lighting
New circuits for appliances, hot tubs, workshops and pumps. Pot lights, under-cabinet lighting, dimmers, switches, outlets, USB receptacles, exterior and landscape lighting.
Generators & backup power
Standby and portable generator hookups with proper transfer switches: the safe way, not an extension cord through a window. Worth doing before the ice storm, not after.
EV charging
Level 2 charger installation, including the load calculation that tells you honestly whether your existing service can carry it.
Waterfront & outbuildings
Docks, boathouses, bunkies, garages, sheds and pump houses. Underground feeds, GFCI protection and the corrosion-resistant fittings that shoreline work actually needs.
Troubleshooting & safety inspections
Faults, nuisance tripping, flickering, and pre-purchase or pre-insurance inspections when someone needs a straight answer about what is behind the drywall.
