Why is it important to hire a licensed Electrician?
Electrical work can be dangerous. If something goes wrong, there’s no one to blame but yourself. Should poor electrical work lead to a house fire, your insurance may not cover you if they find you used an unlicensed electrician. Licensed electricians have undergone rigorous training and testing standards that are necessary to get the job done safely and correctly. This includes completing a set number of hours of practical work, and learning all about the local safety codes for the province they are working in. Licensed electricians are also insured, which means that you will not have to worry about any damage being caused to your home or business during the electrical project.
