How they work
As a licensed contractor, work should be permitted and inspected through the Electrical Safety Authority, Ontario's electrical regulator, particularly for panel upgrades and rewiring. Being family-owned since 1987 gives the business a long operating history in the Ottawa market, which is worth asking about directly if you want references from past decades of work.
