    Professional, work started and completed on schedule. Crews specialize in knob and tube replacement and clean up daily! Patching excellent. I would highly recommend this company to friends and family.

    Exceptional Skill and Service

    We had a huge knob & tube "surprise" left by the previous homeowners: so much of our new house was DIY electrical that had been doctored to hide the knob & tube (to fool inspectors, to fool insurance). Another company quoted us far higher and seemed inexperienced in old Toronto homes. Cue Tim and KNT -- our heroes, to the rescue! They provided a thorough assessment, a fair quote, and ultimately came in under estimate. They were so respectful of our home, worked to the schedule they provided, and even came by after the work was finished to install the last of the light fixtures we had chosen. The icing on the cake was the documentation from the ESA to certify their work. We can't say enough good things about this company and Tim! If only they also did plumbing... and roofing... and painting... and flooring... we would hire them for everything . 100% recommend as the best home repair experience you'll ever have.

    Answer from pro:

    Very Happy that you are enjoying your new home- Sorry we could not help with the other work around the house.

    KNT Electric are amazing

    I first met Bill a few years ago when my insurance company was pressuring me to make some electrical upgrades. He was open and honest and I decided not to do the work. Because I appreciated his honesty I called them when I needed to make many changes to support the building of a basement apartment. Ken was amazing...always accommodating and very professional. I would highly recommend them. Their prices are reasonable and they really go above and beyond to make sure the job is done right with a personal touch.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you I will pass the praise onto Ken.

    DO NOT HESITATE TO HIRE KNT

    2nd job completed, new outlet installed. Next new lighting for bathroom. Neat and tidy job, quick and finally I have an electrical outlet where I needed one. I needed a light fixture installed in a dark hall where no light “has gone before”. I couldn’t get an electrician to commit, then one said ok but never got back to me. On July 6th I went back to Homestars site and contacted KNT. I didn’t call them earlier because all their reviews were for MAJOR jobs. I spoke with Bill, then Tim and emailed pictures and a description of what I needed. They clearly spelled out their fee structure so it wasn’t necessary to get an estimate as I had an idea of how long it should take. NEXT DAY Tim called and said they can do my job tomorrow, Sunday, and I said fantastic, do it. The knowledge, speed and efficiency of KNT electrician Ken was impressive to say the least. Ken did the new light and switch and then replaced 5 old dimmers (70’s style) to new Universal dimmers. KNT has restored my faith. Thank you Tim, Bill and a special thanks to Ken for doing such a great job. I can't believe I have LIGHT where once it was DARK! ;-)

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks I will let Ken know. He has been with us since the beginning.

    emergency mast repair

    after a recent windstorm, our power was out and we had to get our mast repaired before hydro would reconnect- I called KNT, and even though they were extremely busy, they managed to be at my house within 3 hours- they were efficient, friendly and they charged exactly as quoted. I would recommend to anyone.

    Answer from pro:

    Sorry we had to meet under extreme conditions- Toronto has had more than our share of rain / wind storms.

    Knob and Tube Replacement

    We discovered some residual knob and tube in our home that had been partially renovated and needed it out. We picked KNT because of the good reviews, and their quote was very detailed and easy to understand. The communication was excellent, emails and phone calls returned promptly, all questions were answered. Their team worked very hard, were friendly and respectful of our possessions and were able to finish the job quickly, with minimal disruption to the rest of the house. They also installed additional light fixtures and fan at our request. The job ended up costing less than what we were quoted, and I appreciate that they were honest with their estimate and final cost. I found the company trustworthy and reliable.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you - hope you enjoy your new home, and peace of mind knowing the k&t has been replaced

    knob and tube replacment

    From estimate through completion of job, KNT was quick, friendly, thorough and professional. This can be a dirty, dusty, messy job, but they managed to get the power back on by the end of work each day and kept the chaos under control. Good job.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you - it was our pleasure to replace k&t

    Knob and tube replacement

    KNT Electric just finished replacing the knob-and-tube wiring in our house, which turned 100 years-old in early 2018. Their impeccable professionalism was evident at every stage of the task: We were going to live in the house while work was ongoing, and were worried how it will proceed. So they invited us to see a house they were already working on. The cleanly and sparingly punctured holes on the lath walls, the carefully covered hardwood floors, and the punctuality of the team (who were on the site early in the morning—exactly as they said they would be) more than recommended them for the job. Tim and Danny’s initial inspection was meticulous, and so was the documentation of the assessment, which Tim sent us before starting the job, and updated at the end, taking into account only work done. He took careful stock of all possibilities, and proposed some cost-saving solutions for our particular situation. The team was also very considerate and accommodating: we had to interrupt work for almost a week, due to unrelated problems, and they did the necessary rescheduling. They were knowledgeable and ready to answer all our technical questions accessibly and in detail—Danny and Tim in particular. The company apparently makes every effort to enhance the qualifications of its employees. (Danny told me, that all members of the team are sent periodically to refresher courses, to keep up with innovations, and with changes of the codes.. Their team-spirit is also remarkable: They often consult each other, each contributing his own particular expertise to the task, and we felt that we can fully rely on their judgement and their work. ) Thank you, KNT Electric, for your excellent work! You will be our go-to people for any future major electrical job!
