Services Explained
Electrical solutions for homes, renovations and upgrades
The right electrical solution depends on the existing installation, equipment requirements and your project goals. Here is how we approach common requests.
On the Job
Lighting, renovations and electrical upgrades
Thoughtful electrical work that fits the home and the project.
Electrical troubleshooting and repairs
Flickering lights, outlets that stop working, frequently tripping breakers and other electrical issues need careful diagnosis. We investigate the cause and explain the recommended repair before proceeding.
Home renovations and additions
Kitchen remodels, basement finishing, bathroom upgrades and home additions often require new circuits, switches, receptacles and lighting. We coordinate the electrical work with the renovation plan and other trades.
Panel and electrical service upgrades
Changing electrical demands may call for panel modifications or a service upgrade. We review the existing equipment and proposed loads to help determine the appropriate next step.
EV charger electrical installation
Home EV charging requires the right circuit, equipment and electrical capacity. We assess installation requirements, charger location and the existing panel before recommending an approach.
Interior and exterior lighting
From recessed and accent lighting to exterior and security fixtures, we plan placement, switching and controls to make lighting practical and comfortable.
Garages, workshops and outdoor power
Detached garages, workshops and outdoor living spaces can need dedicated circuits, lighting and weather-appropriate electrical equipment. We plan wiring around intended use and site conditions.
Common Questions
Residential electrical FAQs
When should I have my electrical panel assessed?
Consider an assessment if you are renovating, adding significant electrical equipment, experiencing recurring breaker trips or concerned about an aging panel. The appropriate solution depends on an inspection of the existing system.
Can KWT handle the electrical work for a kitchen or basement renovation?
Yes. Residential renovation wiring is among the services described here. Share your plans and timeline so the electrical scope can be coordinated with the rest of the project.
What should I know before installing a home EV charger?
Charger specifications, parking location, cable route and available electrical capacity all matter. An assessment helps establish whether a dedicated circuit or other electrical changes are needed.
Do I need an electrical notification for work in my home?
Many electrical installations and alterations in Ontario require an ESA notification, often referred to as a permit. A licensed electrical contractor can explain which requirements apply to your project and arrange the required notification for work they perform.
Can you help with electrical work in an older home?
Older homes can have limited electrical capacity, outdated equipment or wiring that needs careful evaluation. KWT can review the existing installation and discuss appropriate repair or upgrade options based on its condition.
How long does a typical residential electrical project take?
Timing depends on the scope, access, existing conditions, material availability and any required inspections. After reviewing your project, KWT can discuss the anticipated schedule and any factors that could affect it.

The KWT Approach
Efficient. Detailed. Dependable.
Efficiency is not about rushing. It comes from planning the work properly, anticipating details and communicating clearly so time is spent doing the job rather than correcting avoidable problems.
Respect for the details
KWT looks at the complete job — not simply the wire being installed. We plan routes, fixture locations, access and sequencing carefully, communicate as the work progresses and keep the jobsite organized. The goal is a safe installation that works properly and looks considered when the project is complete.
