KNT Electric

We received four quotes and decided to go with Bill. He gave us such a detailed quote with a break-down of the cost. We were impressed by his thorough assessment of the electrical services to be done. Tim and his crew completed the work in 5 days with minimal incision to the wall and ceiling. The furniture and floor were protected and the clean-up was done at the end of each day. The patching of the holes was nicely done and ready for painting. The team was extremely professional and friendly. The rough-in and final inspections were passed successfully. We were very pleased with this company. Highly recommended.
Thanks Bill, Tim and the crew for your excellent work.

KNT provided great service and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. During the quote walkthrough with the other contractors, they were the most prepared and detail oriented. Even including patch work (which nobody else would do), they were the best price by far. It is clear they specialise in this work and they take pride in it.

The work itself was done well and ahead of schedule. Everyone I interacted with was courteous and responsive, and they took care to come back and take care of a few final outstanding items that we ourselves had yet to notice.

Keep it up guys!

Knob and Tube replacement.
We are happy to say that Bill and his crew did an amazing job.
Inspection passed with flying colors and he completed the job right on time.

Unfortunately, I had a mixed experience with KNT. On the plus side, the knob and tube was removed and replaced correctly, I assume. The job was done within the estimated time frame (six days). The crew arrived promptly and worked steadily.

However, there was a lack of careful attention to some details. I caught and had corrected the crooked installation of a couple of switch plates, the inconsistent on-off direction of the light switches and the misplacement of a wall fixture (which still ended up slightly off-centre).

Most problematic, though, was damage to the brickwork around the porch light, caused by a large hole cut into the brick to re-accomodate the fixture and the worker's attempt to patch and
mortar afterwards. I then spent considerable time dealing with this unplanned masonry job. I kept KNT informed of the situation, my efforts to get it corrected (three consultations, two quotes) and my expectation that the cost would be deducted from the final amount owing. The repair took seven hours to complete. I did not feel that the inconvenience caused me was understood or appreciated, although an apology was eventually offered.

Bill and Tim at KNT were not only amazingly thorough from start to finish, but also unfailingly courteous. From booking the site visit, to providing a quote and scheduling the work; through to spotting unexpected problems, dovetailing with our painter, and finishing up, everything went like clockwork. Our house is now ready for us to move into and it is so important that we feel safe with our young family. We are enormously grateful to Bill and Tim and their team.

I think that good service should be underlined with a thick marker. I own old houses and I like to prevent problems before they happen. Called KNT, spoke with Bill immediately who went through extensive but concise, interesting and accurate explanations to handle my questions. I didn't feel rushed either talking to him over the phone even if he pertinently knew some of my options didn't require his services right away as I needed to go through other steps first.

Not pushing for me to hire his company either, saying : "you have to do this and that and then hire an electrician, us or anyone else" and I thought his attitude was one of a real gentleman. For sure, I will hire them once needed ! Keep up the good work !

Bill and the entire team at KNT Electrical did an amazing job replacing our knob & tube wiring in our existing home and complete wiring to our new build for our home extension. In building a 1200 sq foot extension we ran into a lot of challenging situations, and it was a marvel how well Bill and the team were able to support us through the process. They are highly skilled electricians and problem-solvers, very flexible and communicative on their work progress and why the need to do certain activities, and extremely clean, professional, courteous and easily accessible throughout the whole process. There were multiple times when I called Bill at the last moment asking if his guys could help me out and they were always there with a smile and a helping hand. We passed our ESA certification right away and it was all thanks to the quality work of Bill and his team. Their pricing is very competitive and work product is of exceptional quality. Good luck finding better value for your money anywhere other than KNT Electric. I would HIGHLY recommend Bill and KNT Electric for all your electrical needs.

Bill, Tim, and the team at KNT Electrical did an amazing job upgrading our 1941 home to 2016 standards. Not only did they replace the knob and tube wiring throughout the house, they also upgraded grounding wires, installed a bathroom fan, pot lights, additional receptacles, and dimmer switches. Their ability to understand what a customer requires for day-to-day needs around electricity supply within the home was amazing. Finally, the team patched up all the holes and made the house 'paint ready' before they left the job. They even took the time to match the textured walls and ceilings so that it is almost impossible to distinguish where the work took place. I would recommend KNT Electrical to anyone. They are honest, professional, and work with integrity. If I require anything in future, I will be sure to use their services again.

Panic had set in after I discovered Knob and Tube hidden in the ceiling after trying to install a ceiling fan. KnT is not really that big a deal - I couldn't tell how it was patched into the rest of the updated electrical... Called KnT Electric up based on a recommendation from a friend. Best experience ever! Bill gave me the most thorough quote I have ever seen and was willing to work with me to rein in cost. All in all - you can't go wrong with this company. And the fact that you get an inspection thrown into it is also great. As a new homeowner I feel very secure with their work. I'm telling everyone about them now! Thanks KnT Electric!

Bill and his team upgraded the wiring in our 1920s home, along with a host of other tasks to improve the appearance and functionality of the house. They were meticulous, knowledgeable, efficient, and tidy. They were also able to complete this fairly invasive job with minimal damage to the walls and ceilings – which they also patched. My partner and I were very impressed by everyone's professionalism and attention to detail. Bill proved to be attentive, available, and transparent about all costs up front.

This is our first home and being unaccustomed to this type of work we appreciated that Bill provided a list of all potential jobs we could have him do, with their associated costs, before the contract was even awarded. This put us at ease with the process and helped us make our decision.

Now that the work is done I'd absolutely recommend KNT for this type of work.
