I called many other companies. I compared prices & products and at the end I made up my mind by selecting Alex from Mapleleaf Electric. The one thing that made me decide to choose Alex out of everybody else was his vast knowledge and information about lighting and not just an expert of pot light installation. As being a detail oriented person (I am a professional electrical engineer), it took me a long time to shop around and ask the most important questions before hiring the right electrician. My major concern was prices vs. product. I found some companies charge the unbelievable price of $140 (my home builder charges $250 each). Most electricians charge $80, some $70 and even an unbeatable price of $65. That got me confused, and at the same time raised my awareness. The huge price difference allowed me to ask all companies what kind of pot lights they provided and where they get them from. Alex explained to me in details why a huge price difference and it all made sense to me. He was very thorough.
You get what you pay for. Alex and his crew installed 80 low voltage pot lights Contrast lighting brand (Canadian company) all controlled by a low voltage magnetic dimmers. 46 pot lights in the main floor and the rest in the upper floor.
Even if you have to spend more money for the finest quality pot light brand, at the end it saves you money and gives you peace of mind. Thanks Alex and his team for doing an amazing masterpiece job.
