Here are well-regarded electrical companies that serve the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), plus quick notes on what they’re known for and how to pick the right contractor. I pulled ratings and awards from HomeStars and the companies’ sites so you can verify reviews and licences before hiring. (HomeStars.com)

Top picks (GTA)

• Hotwire Power Group — Frequent HomeStars “Best of” winner; strong reputation for residential remodels, panel upgrades and custom lighting across the GTA. Good if you want a company with many reviews and awards. (hotwire-electric.com)
• Java Electric Ltd. — Highly rated on HomeStars for EV chargers, pot lights, panel upgrades and troubleshooting; long experience in GTA residential/commercial work. (HomeStars.com)
• AC Toronto Electric — High HomeStars score with many verified reviews; good for prompt service and emergency calls in the Toronto area. (HomeStars.com)
• Kiya Sunrise Electrical (Kiya Sunrise Electrical Ltd.) — Strong HomeStars ratings; experience with both older homes (knob & tube replacement) and modern residential installs. (HomeStars.com)
• Logic Electric Contracting Inc. — Positive HomeStars reviews; often recommended for new-build electrical work and full-house wiring. (HomeStars.com)

Where to look for more options and independent reviews

• HomeStars (Toronto / GTA electrician listings and “Best of” winners) — useful to compare ratings, read verified reviews and see awards. (HomeStars.com)
• Company websites — for awards, licensing (ESA/ECRA numbers), and portfolio examples (lighting design, panel upgrades, EV chargers). (hotwire-electric.com)

How to choose the best electrician for your job

• Verify licence/registration (ESA/ECRA where applicable) and liability insurance. (See company pages / HomeStars listings for licence notes.) (HomeStars.com)
• Check recent, verified reviews (HomeStars, Google, Houzz) and look for consistent strengths ( punctuality, clean work, clear quotes).
• Get at least 2–3 written quotes that list materials, labour, permits and warranties.
• Ask whether permit work will include an ESA/municipal inspection and a Certificate of Acceptance where required.
• For specialized work (EV charger, Lutron/DMX control, whole-home upgrades) confirm specific brand/technology experience.

If you want, I can:

• Narrow this list by neighbourhood (e.g., North York, Scarborough, Mississauga, Vaughan), price range or job type (panel upgrade, EV charger, pot lights).
• Pull recent HomeStars / Google review snapshots and contact details for 3–5 of these companies.
