KNT Electric

We recently bought an old Toronto home, and the home inspection indicated that there was "some" knob and tube present (and the selling agent told us it was less than 5%). We decided to have it replaced before moving in, but after getting a few quotes from electricians it became evident that about 75% of the house was knob and tube! After accepting our fate, we chose Bill's team to do the job because of the way he conducted himself during the quote process and because of his fantastic Homestars reviews. He came in and walked through the house while making a floor plan, noting all the light fixtures and outlets. He then sat us down and explained that knob and tube is totally safe to keep in the house, but if we still wanted to have it replaced then his quote would include having everything updated to meet the current ESA code requirements. He was very thorough with his explanations of what work would need to be done and why, as well as transparent with costs. He was also just generally a very easy-going and trusting person, and we knew immediately that we would want to work with him. His quote came in with a very detailed breakdown of each piece of work and cost. The total cost was comparable to other quotes we received, but we were more comfortable because we knew exactly what we would be paying for with KNT. Bill’s team (Hugo, David, Tim, and all the others) were a pleasure to work with, always very attentive and helpful and efficient. They were tidy and worked quickly each day. Bill came by almost every day to check up on how things were progressing, and to answer any questions we had. We had many changes, additions and unexpected things come up during the 6 days they worked on our house (you never know what you’ll find behind the walls!), but Bill always offered us good explanations for what was happening and options for how to resolve. His team also did a great job patching up the many holes, including matching the pattern in the ceiling plaster as well as filling in parts of the baseboard where older outlets used to be installed. In addition to the knob and tube removal, we also had his team install bathroom exhaust fans, pot lights and Ethernet cables throughout the house. We have been so pleased with all of their work. Bill and his team have been a real pleasure to work with. We highly recommend!!
