WHAT WE DO
If it's behind a wall and it carries current, it's our work. Here's what we get called for most.
100A and 200A upgrades, fuse-panel replacements, and mast or meter-base repairs — permit pulled and ESA inspection booked for you.
Clean, symmetrical layouts with minimal drywall damage. Dimmers, under-cabinet runs, and full room redesigns.
Level 2 chargers wired to code, with a load calculation first so you know your panel can carry it before we quote.
Knob-and-tube removal and aluminum-wire pigtailing done properly, with the documentation your insurer asks for.
Standby generator hookups and manual transfer switches so the furnace, fridge and well pump stay on through an outage.
GFCI-protected hot tub circuits, landscape lighting, garage sub-panels and exterior receptacles rated for our winters.
Retail and office build-outs scheduled around your trades, with drawings stamped and inspections coordinated.
Shop and warehouse lighting retrofits with a payback estimate, plus scheduled maintenance visits that catch faults early.
Lost power, a burning smell, a breaker that won't reset, or storm damage to your mast — someone picks up, day or night.
LICENSED ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR
ECRA/ESA #7014882
Est. 2011 · Barrie, Ontario
WHY RAVENSWORTH
Dan Ravensworth has been a Master Electrician since 2011 and has run this shop out of Barrie for fourteen years. It's four electricians and an apprentice — small enough that you'll recognise whoever comes back for the next job.
We look at the job, then give you one number. If we hit something genuinely unexpected we stop and talk to you before spending your money.
The ESA permit goes in under our licence and we meet the inspector ourselves. You get the certificate emailed when it closes — it matters at resale.
Drop sheets down, holes cut for the patcher, and a vacuum before we leave. You shouldn't be able to tell where we worked except that it works.
A person answers. We ask enough questions to know whether this is a 40-minute job or a full day.
For most work we quote a flat price before we start — not an hourly guess that grows once we're in the wall.
A two-hour arrival window, and a text when we're on the way. If we're running late you hear it from us first.
We pull the ESA permit, meet the inspector, and vacuum up. You get the inspection certificate by email.
SERVICE AREA
We're based off Dunlop Street and cover most of Simcoe County. If you're just outside the list, call anyway — we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth our travel time or whether you're better off with someone closer.
Illustrative coverage map — not to scale
“Our panel was a 1970s fuse box the home inspector flagged. Dan quoted a flat price, pulled the permit, and had the ESA inspector out the same week. No surprises on the invoice.”
“Booked an EV charger install. They did a load calculation first and told me straight that my panel needed work before the charger — could have just sold me the charger and left me with a problem.”
“Power went out in half the house at 9pm on a Sunday. Someone actually answered. He talked me through shutting off the right breaker and was there at 7am.”
“Twenty-two pot lights across two floors. They laid the whole thing out in chalk and walked me through it before cutting a single hole. Drywall guy said they were the cleanest cuts he'd patched.”
“Aluminum wiring was going to cost us our home insurance renewal. They pigtailed the whole house in two days and sent a letter the insurer accepted without a fuss.”
“We run a small machine shop. They retrofitted the shop lights over a weekend so we never lost a production hour, and the hydro bill dropped about a third.”
If yours isn't here, call — you'll get a straight answer, and no one will try to book you for something you don't need.
