5 Best Electricians in Toronto (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Brad Smith, Home Services Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 7 min read

A burning smell from the breaker panel or a dead outlet at 9pm isn't the moment to start reading reviews from scratch. The five electricians in Toronto ranked here carry a combined 1,354 Google reviews, led by a single company with 453 of them on its own. Some of these five do electrical work alongside plumbing or HVAC, others specialize tightly in one thing like pot lights or EV chargers, so the right call depends on the job as much as the rating.

Short answer: Extron Electric & Plumbing Ltd and Milestone Electrical Ltd both post perfect 5.0 ratings, on 453 and 106 reviews respectively. Ontime Electrician Toronto & GTA follows close behind at 4.9 across 281 reviews with genuine 24/7 emergency coverage. All five are ESA-registered or licensed, so start with whichever fits your job size and urgency.

Extron Electric & Plumbing Ltd

5.0453 Google reviews

Extron Electric & Plumbing has operated since 2007 as a Certified Master Electrician contractor that also handles plumbing, serving Brampton, Mississauga, Caledon, Vaughan and the surrounding GTA. Because the company covers both trades, several of the reviews on file describe jobs like dishwasher installs that need electrical and plumbing work done together in a single visit rather than two separate call-outs. It performs both residential and commercial wiring to Canadian Electrical Code standards.

What people praise

Handles combined electrical and plumbing jobs (like appliance installs) in one visit
Certified Master Electricians performing work to Canadian Electrical Code standards
Free estimates and reasonable pricing, per reviewers

1Click Energy Solutions (formerly 1Click Heating and Cooling)

4.6359 Google reviews

1Click Energy Solutions is primarily a heating and cooling contractor specializing in heat pump installations, and the electrical work reviewers describe is tied specifically to those installs, panel connections, ductwork wiring and post-install power-consumption monitoring, rather than general household electrical repairs. Staff stay engaged well after installation, following up on questions about energy use and helping customers navigate provincial rebate programs.

What people praise

Installation crews include a full team of electricians handling the electrical side of heat pump installs
Staff (Dylan, Brandon named repeatedly) follow up after installation with power-consumption monitoring
Crews clean up thoroughly and walk customers through the finished system

Worth knowing

Primarily a heating and cooling contractor. If you need general household electrical work unrelated to a heat pump or HVAC install, one of the dedicated electricians on this list is a better fit

Our take: Worth including here because heat pump installs involve substantial electrical work, but it's not a general-purpose electrician. Best for anyone already planning a heat pump or HVAC upgrade.

Responded to a burning-smell circuit breaker emergency the same day, including on a Sunday
Takes on small jobs that other electricians didn't bother following up on, per one reviewer

Milestone Electrical LTD.

5.0106 Google reviews

Milestone Electrical is a residential specialist based in Toronto's east end, focused on pot light installation, panel upgrades, EV charger installs and knob-and-tube removal for older homes, serving Toronto, Aurora and Tottenham. Several reviewers describe using the company for multiple separate projects over time, not just a single job, which points to a level of consistency across visits that's harder to judge from a one-off review.

What people praise

Repeat customers report consistent quality across multiple separate projects, not just one visit
Specializes in pot lights, panel upgrades, EV chargers and knob-and-tube removal for older homes
Leaves the work area spotless and explains the process clearly before starting

Worth knowing

Only open until 4pm on Saturdays, no Sunday hours

Watch: 5 Best Electricians in Toronto (2026)

How we score

Rating is each electrician’s live Google average. Review volume shows how many customers left a rating, measured against the other businesses in this comparison. Confidence weighs the rating by how many reviews back it up, so a 5.0 from 450 reviews carries more weight than a 5.0 from 100. Recency checks how lately customers are still reviewing. No business can pay to move these numbers.

How much does an electrician cost in Toronto? (2026)

Pricing depends heavily on job type: a simple outlet or switch repair costs far less than a full panel upgrade, EV charger install or knob-and-tube rewiring in an older home. Emergency and after-hours callouts typically carry a premium over scheduled daytime work. Ask for a written estimate covering the scope of work and whether an ESA compliance certificate is included before any work begins.

Serving the Greater Toronto Area

These electricians cover the core GTA: downtown Toronto, York, Etobicoke and out through Brampton, Mississauga, Vaughan and Caledon. If you’re searching for an electrician near me anywhere from the harbourfront to the 407 corridor, one of these five realistically covers your address.

What to ask before you hire an electrician

Are you ESA-registered or licensed to work in Ontario?
Will I receive an ESA compliance certificate after the work is done?
Is there an after-hours or emergency call-out premium?
What’s the warranty on the work if an issue recurs?
For older homes, do you handle knob-and-tube removal or panel upgrades?
Will the same electrician handle the job start to finish?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these electricians?

We compared publicly available Google ratings and review counts for electricians and electrical contractors serving Toronto, then weighed rating against review volume so a business with hundreds of reviews isn’t automatically outranked by one with a handful of five-star ratings.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects Google ratings and review data verified in July 2026. We refresh listings periodically as ratings and review counts change.

Is 1Click Energy Solutions actually an electrician?

1Click is primarily a heating and cooling contractor specializing in heat pumps. Its installation crews include electricians for the wiring and panel work heat pump installs require, but it’s not a general household electrician.

The bottom line

Extron Electric & Plumbing is the safe default: a perfect rating across the largest review base on this list, with the added convenience of handling plumbing on the same visit if a job needs it. For a fast emergency callout specifically, Ontime’s 24/7 track record is just as strong.
