FAQs
My older Scarborough home has flickering lights and occasional short circuits. What should I do?
This is a common issue in our area's historic homes, often caused by aging wiring, loose connections, or overloaded circuits. It's a safety concern that should be addressed promptly. Our licensed electricians specialize in diagnosing these problems, starting with a thorough electrical inspection. We can then perform precise repairs, such as securing loose connections in your panel or updating wiring, to restore safe, reliable power to your home. We approach every job with the careful preparation we're known for.
What's involved in your preparation for a heat pump or solar panel installation?
We invest over 20 hours of planning before we ever arrive at your home. This includes a detailed site assessment of your Scarborough property, customized system design, and meticulous permitting and logistics work with local authorities. For heat pumps, we calculate the precise heating and cooling loads of your home. For solar, we analyze your roof structure and sun exposure. This upfront work ensures your installation is efficient, code-compliant, and tailored to maximize your energy savings and comfort, reflecting our commitment to getting it right.
Do you offer maintenance for the generators and HVAC systems you install?
