Editorial Review
Our Take on Safe Electrical Solutions
The combination of a published ESA licence number, more than two decades of trading and 137 Google reviews averaging 4.8 as of October 2, 2026 makes this an easy shortlist candidate for older-home electrical work. The claim that overnight rates match daytime rates is the one thing we would confirm by phone, because it runs against how most of the trade prices emergencies. Strongest fit for panel upgrades, aluminum and knob-and-tube remediation, and EV charger installs.
Best forpanel upgrades and older-home rewiring across Toronto and the GTA
What We Like
- 4.8 rating from 137 reviews on its Google Business Profile, read October 2, 2026
- ESA contractor licence number 7010337 published openly on its website
- Trading since 2003, with deep coverage of Toronto's older housing stock
- Published hours show 24/7 availability, with the company claiming no after-hours price premium
- Broad range from single-circuit troubleshooting to 400A service upgrades and EV chargers
Things to Consider
- The same-price-at-night claim comes from the company and should be confirmed before dispatch
- Experience figures on the website vary between the 2003 start date and a 30-plus-year claim
- No published pricing, so estimates need to be requested job by job
- Large industrial and high-rise base-building work does not appear to be the focus

Company Background
About Safe Electrical Solutions
Toronto's older neighbourhoods generate a predictable stream of electrical work, and much of what this company lists maps directly onto it. Aluminum wiring in postwar bungalows that insurers now want reconditioned. Knob-and-tube in pre-war semis that has to go before a policy renews or a sale closes. Sixty-amp fuse panels that cannot carry a modern kitchen, let alone a car charger. Safe electrical solutions as a firm has built its service list around those jobs, with panel and service upgrades spanning 100A through 400A, fuse-to-breaker conversions, dedicated circuits for appliances and additions, and whole-house rewiring.
The newer half of the work is electrification. EV charger installation is listed for Level 1, 2 and 3 equipment, residential and commercial, and the company describes itself as an authorized Eaton installer. Standby and portable generator hookups with transfer switches are offered, as is whole-home surge protection installed at the panel, which matters more than people assume on a grid that takes summer storm hits. Lighting is the volume category: recessed pot lights in new construction and retrofit, chandeliers, ceiling fans, and fluorescent-to-LED conversions in offices and retail units.
Trading since 2003 per its own website, the business publishes ESA licence number 7010337 and says it carries full insurance. That licence number is worth knowing, because in Ontario any contractor doing electrical work for hire must hold an Electrical Safety Authority contractor licence, and ESA notification is required for most work beyond trivial repairs. The company states that its panel upgrades, EV installs and pool circuits are permitted and inspected, which is the correct process. Ask for the notification number on your job and keep the ESA Certificate of Acceptance once it clears, since buyers, insurers and future renovators will all ask for it.
Hours are the other distinguishing detail. Published hours show open 24 hours every day of the week, and the company claims its overnight pricing matches daytime pricing. That is an unusual promise in the trade, where after-hours call-outs commonly carry a premium or a minimum charge, so it is worth confirming on the phone before dispatch and asking whether the quoted figure covers diagnosis only or the repair as well. Its Google Business Profile showed a 4.8 rating from 137 reviews when checked on October 2, 2026, a volume consistent with a steady residential book rather than a one-truck operation or a large franchise.
Who it suits: homeowners in York, Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough dealing with a panel that has run out of room, an insurance letter about wiring, or a renovation that needs circuits added and code updates signed off. Landlords and sellers needing a safety inspection before a transaction fit the brief too. Small commercial and retail clients get a mention, with panel replacements, lighting upgrades and emergency power restoration listed. Large industrial fit-outs, design-build engineering and high-rise base-building work are not what this profile describes, and anyone with that kind of project would be better served by a specialist contractor.
Before you book, pin down a few things. Get the estimate in writing, itemised, with the ESA permit fee shown separately so you know whether it is included. On a panel upgrade, ask whether Toronto Hydro service disconnection and reconnection is arranged by the electrician and how long the power will be off, since that scheduling is often what drives the timeline rather than the labour itself. For EV chargers, ask about load calculation, because a 200A service in an older home may still need a load management device rather than a straight 40A circuit. For aluminum wiring, clarify whether the plan is pigtailing with approved connectors or full replacement, as the cost and the insurer's response differ substantially.
Compared with the Toronto alternatives, safe electrical solutions sits between the single-van electrician who answers the phone personally and the large branded companies with dispatch centres and flat-rate books. The company says it runs multiple stocked trucks across the region and is not a call centre, which, if accurate, should mean quicker arrival across a wide service area. The long trading history and the published licence number are the two facts a cautious reader can actually check, and both hold up against what the website claims.

Safe Electrical Solutions FAQs
Is Safe Electrical Solutions licensed in Ontario?
Yes, the company publishes ESA contractor licence number 7010337 on its website and describes itself as fully insured. In Ontario, anyone doing electrical work for hire needs an Electrical Safety Authority contractor licence, and you can verify a number through the ESA's public contractor lookup before you book.
Do they charge more for a night or weekend call-out?
The company states that overnight pricing matches daytime pricing, with licensed electricians dispatched around the clock. Published hours do show open 24 hours every day. Because premiums and minimum charges are normal elsewhere in the trade, confirm the figure on the phone and ask whether it covers diagnosis only or the repair too.
What does a panel upgrade involve in Toronto?
A permit and ESA inspection, a utility disconnect and reconnect, and usually a day with the power off. The company lists service upgrades from 100A to 400A and says its panel work is permitted and inspected. Scheduling with Toronto Hydro often sets the timeline more than the electrical labour, so ask how that is arranged and how long you will be without power.
Can they handle aluminum wiring or knob-and-tube for an insurance requirement?
Both are on the service list, including aluminum wiring reconditioning and replacement and knob-and-tube replacement. Ask whether the proposed fix is pigtailing with approved connectors or full replacement, since insurers treat the two differently and the costs are not comparable.
Which areas do they cover?
Toronto and the wider GTA, from a base at 26 Hertford Ave in York. The company says it runs stocked trucks spread across the service area at consistent pricing regardless of location, and its own testimonials reference Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough and Markham.
Do they install EV chargers?
Yes, EV charger installation is one of the listed specialties, covering Level 1, 2 and 3 units for homes and commercial sites, with the company describing itself as an authorized Eaton installer. Ask about the load calculation on your service, because older homes sometimes need load management rather than a straight dedicated circuit.
