Question 1

What should I look for when hiring an electrical contractor in Toronto?

Accepted Answer

You should look for the following key points when hiring an electrical contractor in Toronto. First and foremost, you'll want to make sure that they are ESA/ECRA licensed and WSIB insured. This will protect you in case of any accidents, injuries, or damage that may occur during the course of the work.

Secondly, you'll want to check that they have licensed electricians and registered apprentices on staff. This will ensure that the work is up to code and meets all safety standards. Finally, you'll want to verify that the contractor is locally reputed and provides detailed quotations. By considering these factors, you can be sure that you're hiring the best possible electrical contractor for the job.

Question 2

Why is it important to hire a licensed electrician in Toronto?

Accepted Answer

It is important to hire a licensed electrician in Toronto because electricians with a license have been thoroughly trained to install electrical components and repair them, as well as identify and correct any potential electrical hazards. This training helps to ensure that the work is done correctly and efficiently, without any costly mistakes. In addition, licensed electricians are required to adhere to strict safety standards, which further reduces the risk of electrical accidents or injuries. As a result, hiring a licensed electrician is the best way to ensure that your electrical needs in Toronto are met in a safe and efficient manner.

Question 5

Do I need a permit?

Electrical work in Ontario requires a permit almost always, with only a few rare exceptions. Your insurance company may request a Certificate of Inspection from you, which is provided by the ESA once the work is complete. The process of obtaining a permit and then getting the work completed can be lengthy, so it's important to plan ahead. If you're unsure about whether or not you need a permit, it's always best to err on the side of caution and contact your local ESA office. They'll be able to advise you on the best course of action. By following the proper procedures, you can ensure that your electrical work is up to code and safe.
