Electrical work in St. Catharines
Your local licensed electrician in St. Catharines.
St. Catharines is Niagara's largest city, and its housing covers every era. Many homes downtown, in Port Dalhousie and around Western Hill were built long before EV chargers, heat pumps and home offices, and some still run on 60 or 100 amp service with original wiring behind the walls. We assess what you have, explain it in plain language and recommend only the upgrades that make sense.
On the commercial side, we work with owners and property managers on storefronts, offices, restaurants and industrial units throughout the city, from tenant fit-outs to LED lighting retrofits and service upgrades. Every job starts with a site visit and finishes with an ESA inspection where one is required.
