We've corrected code violations flagged by home inspectors, insurers, and ESA inspections alike. Here are the problems our clients call us about most often.
An ESA inspector lists specific corrections needed before an installation can pass and receive a Certificate of Acceptance. Leaving the notice unresolved means the work is not legally complete. We correct every listed item and coordinate the re-inspection to close it out.
A buyer's home inspection that turns up code violations often triggers a price renegotiation or a repair demand before closing. Addressing the issues proactively removes that leverage from the negotiation. We correct flagged items quickly and provide documentation for the closing process.
Double-tapped breakers, where two wires are connected to a single breaker slot not rated for it, create a real fire and overload risk. This is one of the most commonly flagged violations in older panels. We correct the wiring and add proper breaker capacity where needed.
Older homes often lack GFCI protection in areas near water, which current code requires. This is a common flag on both home inspections and insurance reviews. We install compliant GFCI protection at every required location.
Two-prong ungrounded outlets are common in homes with older wiring and represent a shock hazard for modern appliances. This is frequently flagged during resale inspections. We correct grounding issues outlet by outlet or recommend a broader rewiring plan when the pattern is widespread.
Insurers sometimes flag outdated panels, knob-and-tube wiring, or unpermitted past work during a policy review or renewal and require correction to maintain coverage. Delaying the fix risks a lapse in protection. We complete the required correction and provide documentation for the insurer.
Homes that change hands sometimes carry electrical work done without a permit or proper inspection by a previous owner. This creates liability and safety uncertainty for the new owner. We assess the existing work, correct any violations, and obtain a proper Certificate of Acceptance.
Junction boxes with too many wire connections or improper capping are a common violation that increases fire risk behind walls. This issue is often invisible until an inspection specifically checks for it. We correct box wiring and confirm it meets current code capacity.
Homeowners without a clear history of past electrical work often aren't sure whether it was permitted or inspected correctly. Uncertainty here creates real risk during a sale or insurance claim. We perform a full assessment and identify any violations before they surface at an inconvenient time.
Our buyer's inspection flagged three issues, including a panel with double-tapped breakers. Electrical Services Ontario came out within days, fixed everything, and got us documentation before closing. Sale went through without a hitch.
I had no idea what half the terms on our ESA defect notice meant. Electrical Services Ontario walked through each item, fixed what needed fixing, and scheduled the re-inspection themselves. Passed on the first try.
What started as fixing one flagged outlet turned into finding two more ungrounded receptacles once the electrician started checking. Added some time to the visit but he explained it clearly and didn't push unnecessary extras.
We bought an older home and discovered some sketchy wiring the previous owner never permitted. Electrical Services Ontario brought it up to code and got us a proper Certificate of Acceptance for our records.
Our insurer flagged an old panel during a policy renewal and required correction before continuing coverage. The technician handled the permit, the fix, and the inspection with zero stress on my end.
I expected a much bigger bill based on what I'd read online, but the electrician confirmed only two of the four things I was worried about were actual violations. Appreciated the straight answer instead of an inflated scope.

Tell us what is happening — no power, a breaker that will not reset, or a planned upgrade. We talk it through and book a time that works for you, including same-day for urgent calls.
A licensed electrician looks at the actual panel, circuit, and load rather than quoting over the phone, then gives you a firm written price with the scope set out line by line.
The electrician who quoted the job does the work. Drop sheets go down, permits are filed where the work calls for it, and you get an update before anything changes from the plan.
Every circuit is tested before we close the panel, the inspection is booked and the certificate handed over, and our labour is warrantied for two years.
