Hot tub electrical

Ian was very responsive and super friendly. He made us feel comfortable with asking questions and explained the work that would be done. He provided a quote quickly which was lower than another company we had talked to. When I was able to get a panel and wiring on my own, Ian was open to re-quoting and seemed to care about saving us money. His crew came the day the hot tub was delivered, as they knew we were excited to get it hooked up. They were friendly, very efficient and made sure that safety measures were followed. They explained their process and showed us helpful information about our new hot tub and hook up. I am extremely happy with the service provided and know that we will call Ian and his team for our future electrical needs!

Amazing service - job well done.

I saw their truck out my window and went out to say hi, as I was having a big issue with the fan above my stove and i just couldnt trouble shoot it myself. They came right in and under 2 min had it fixed. Super nice friendly guy too. It was Ian's sidekick Dalton. What a great experience. Definitely call them if you need electrical work.

Swim spa install

Ian was absolutely amazing! Very professional and very reliable. He kept up calm throughout the whole process and was very quick and efficient. I can’t remember how much I paid but I want to say around 1500 total.

Highly Recommend

When we bought our house the exterior garage lights were on the same circuit and switch as the mudroom lights. As I wanted to add to a little curb appeal, having the exterior garage lights on a separate timer to automate their status and reduce our energy use was ideal. Note, since I didn't want to waste electricity, I never had the exterior garage lights on because needing to have the mud room lights on too.

I reached out to McAllister's Electrical Services (MES) via the HomeStars email link and Ian responded the same evening. He came to our home the following week (due to my work schedule) to gain an understanding of the scope of work. Ian provided an estimate via email which outlined the work to be completed with a split between labour and material requirements. I was able to accept the estimate right from the email and Ian reached out to schedule the onsite work the following day.

Ian came to our home today right on time and completed the work as agreed during the site visit and noted on the estimate. The install was clean and he was very careful with all the 'stuff' I have stored in my garage. I was left very impressed with Ian, both as a professional and as a person. He is a very kind individual. He even recommended a solution to another issue I was having in the house. Needless to say, Ian will be returning soon to fix this too.

Thank you Ian and MES for the extremely professional services provided. You will be my first call for other electrical issues and will recommend MES to other neighbours that are looking for electrical service as well.

One bedroom apartment

Ian did a fantastic job. He was professional and arrived on time until the job was finished. I would highly recommend him. You won't find a better electrician that cares and goes above and beyond to make sure the work is done correctly. His prices are reasonable.

We put a one bedroom apartment over our garage for my parents with a separate electrical meter. It was a big job and it took almost a year to complete because of covid19. The job needed everything a new built house would require and even a little more since we live in a rural area. Dalton
was Ian's apprentice and he was great as well. They made a
great team.

I want to thank you Ian. It was a pleasure to have you here in my home and my parents love the apartment. I will definitely call you again if I have any electrical issues.

Secondary suite conversion

Ian came to me as a referral and I could not be happier with the work and professionalism he puts forward.
He was hired to upgrade and convert a single family home to one with a legal secondary suite. Dual meters and two 100 amp panels were installed as well as interconnected smokes, a second kitchen and laundry, pot lights and more.
Everything was completed efficiently and he and his team cleaned up before leaving. Ian always puts the customer first and I would highly recommend.

Simply the best!

We have used Ian quite a bit over the last ten years with our last two homes and we've never given a second thought about calling anyone else! He's extremely professional, always provides great suggestions to save money, is up to date on the latest electrical devices and local codes and SUPER courteous!
There's a reason why his rating is 9.9/10 on Homestars!

Basement Reno - Pickering

Ian's work ethic is outstanding. He is reliable, dependable and gets the job done. This is the second time we've used his services and he will be our go to person from now on. No games, no rip offs -- just solid, fair, professional service and prices. A rare honest contractor who honors his word. And he is good natured to boot. It is a total pleasure to work with Ian and we are extremely grateful for his excellent work on our project. This project involved a new electrical panel as well as full wiring, electrical outlets, and smoke detectors all to building code for a legal basement apartment.
