Here’s What Our Customers Are Saying

All reviews based on 2024 submissions.

"Showed up on time, did the job very conscientiously, within time estimate, cleaned up, billed as quoted. Will use again/recommend."

Location: Manitoba

"Henry is both a journeyman plumber and electrician and a very polite, well mannered person. Henry arrived on time and demonstrated great skill and efficiency in replacing one of our track lighting fixtures and installing a dimmer switch, tasks well beyond my ken. In the result, I was very impressed with Henry’s work."

Location: Alberta

"Bill took great care of the house finishes too when he installed the difficult chandelier which I really appreciate. He arrived on time and was helpful and professional."

Location: Ontario

"I needed an electrician to help me install a dimmer switch for new pot lights and an electrical outlet in my kitchen. It ended up being more complicated than I realized. I went through 2 dimmer switches before calling Edik. He changed the circuit from a 30 amp to 15 amp and solved the problem. While he had the electrical box open his coworker cleaned up some mistakes a previous electrician had made."

Location: British Columbia

"Paul and his associate installed new bathroom fans, pot lights, under deck lighting outside, and removed existing lights and fans. The work took a full morning and we are pleased with the results which came in under the estimate."

Location: Nova Scotia

"Colin was very friendly and prompt with communication. He knows what he’s doing and charges a reasonable price. I’m happy to have found him and will call on him again in the future. For reference, I had him change a switch to a plug."

Location: PEI

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose a Local Pro?

  • The Home Depot uses the latest technology to match customers with a qualified and vetted Local Pro
  • Local Pros are also pre-screened so can put your full trust into their services. There’s no need to worry about quality of work – with reviews, references and our comprehensive background check, we’ve ensured that for you

How do I get matched to electricians?

  • You are connected to an Electrical Services Local Pro in your area based on job skills, geographic radius and availability to meet your request

How much does hiring an electrician cost?

  • The cost of your job will depend on a variety of factors unique to you and your home, the electrical work required, and the rate charged by the Electrical Services Local Pro you choose to hire
  • We recommend you contact more than one electrician to compare the services the electrical contractors offer and get more than one estimate before deciding on who to hire

Why shouldn’t I just do the electrical job myself?

  • For most electrical services, hiring an experienced electrician isn’t just preferable; it’s necessary. Certified electricians are licensed professionals whose jobs require expert knowledge, specialized equipment, or both
  • Attempting to take on some electrical jobs without either can pose a significant safety risk to you and your home

Is DIY cheaper than hiring a Local Pro for electrical services?

  • Not necessarily. While taking on electrical work yourself would save you labour costs, it may not save you money overall. That’s because a licensed electrical contractor is more likely to get the job done fast – and get it right
  • A DIY electrical repair error can have more serious consequences than most other DIY-related errors. Faulty wiring or improperly installed electrical components can cause fire, electrocution, or damage your home’s electronics and appliances, especially if handled incorrectly

Does it cost to request a Local Pro?

  • There is no cost to request a Local Pro, nor to get matched to them
  • After connecting with up to three Local Pros, you can vet and select the Local Pro that fits your budget and schedule

It’s been over 72 hours and no Local Pros have contacted me. What happens now?

In the rare event that none of the three Local Pros have contacted you within that time, you will be automatically re-matched to up to three new Local Pros via email

What do I do if there are no Local Pros available near me?

We are constantly adding new Pros, so we hope to have Pros available in your area soon. Please ensure the postal code you have entered is where you’d like the service to happen
