Kiya Sunrise Electrical Ltd.

I decided to put some under cabinet lighting in my kitchen finally and was having a hard time finding an electrician that would do the wiring and provide the lighting as well until I came across Kia through this website. He provided me a price for his work which was comparable to others but also took the time to explain the differences between fluorescent, halogen, xenon and led lights and what the pro's and cons were.
We are very pleased with the work he did and will be using him in the future.

Thanks,

Kia was great. We lost power to a portion of our house after an AC/Vacuum mishap. Kia was quick, professional, and a pleasure to work with. In the end, it ended up being a very simple problem to rectify. Kia put everything back as it was and also noticed a few other items while there. Thx Kia!

I recently purchased a home with the understanding that there was some knob and tube on the second floor. I negotiated insurance but only with the clause that I have all the knob and tube replaced in sixty days. As my inspector found the branch, panel and other wiring quite well done, I figured this would be painful but doable.

So I came to HomeStars and got five firms to give me quotes. I started with the top rated electrician in Toronto and worked my way down.

Let me just say that this was a horrific experience in all but one case. Each vendor quoted prices higher than the last. One wouldn't even give me a final quote. He said it would be roughly $11,000 but he wouldn't know until he took my basement ceiling off. And here is the kicker. He wouldn't put it back. I'd have to negotiate that separately with a general contractor.

My house on the first and basement level is beautifully finished and renovated. I don't have an open basement. I don't have an attic. I was told by one contractor that my house was a "Nightmare" and to just live with the knob and tube or I would have to move out for 15 days while they ripped the walls apart. And again, they wouldn't put it back together.

Then I met Kiya. First, Kiya spotted some warning signs within 5 minutes of walking in my house. And sure enough, it turns out my entire house had knob and tube. Oy. The previous owner had hidden it with some very sneaky tricks. But Kiya told me not to worry. I remember asking him, "do you have to take my ceiling out??" and I will forever remember his laughter and his answer of "why would I ever take your ceiling out!?"

Kiya's crew did three amazing things when it comes to contractors. First, they arrived on time the day they said they would start. Seven of the most fabulous men descended with care on my house. Second, they did not destroy my house. I am still marveling at how they managed to run wires across three floors with so few holes. Holes that they patched back up before wrapping and cleaning up. And finally, they came in on budget. Time and again, Kiya offered to put in an extra outlet or move a switch to make it more convenient and not once did he ask for money beyond his quote.

I can't recommend Kiya or his crew any higher. They will be the only electricians I ever call.

Even before buying our house (I knew there was a high probability it would need electrical work because of the neighbourhood we chose), Kiya was one of my top picks. He and his crew did a lot of electrical work for us: changing the configuration of switches (current ones made no sense). He also did some 3-way switch work for us. He put in pot lights in our basement; several ceiling fans and a bathroom exhaust fan. He removed extra outside outlets and put in safer outside outlets for us. The only thing he couldn't do was make the heat in my bathroom fan work as this needed a dedicated 20A connection and we have no access to our attic and adding this wire would be too difficult and probably expensive in our current situation.

I've read one reviewer who said a company's true character is not in how well they do the job because that is expected but in what they do when a problem occurs: this is a true test of the company. Kiya passes this test exceptionally well. There was a problem with one of our family room switches and although it took a little while to figure it out, Kiya was always prompt in getting back to us and handling the issue.

I like the fact he tries to train his crew with the same integrity he approaches his work. I was a bit worried when he initially left his crew but seeing how they work and listening to their answers, I realized the ones in charge were fully trained by Kiya. Kiya is an electrician I can trust and this is a big thing coming from me as I don't trust many people. He is very knowledge in what he does and he provides a great service for his value. He may not be the cheapest but who wants cheap at the cost of safety? I think it is well-worth paying someone you can trust.

Thank you Kiya! We appreciate all the work you and your crew did for us.

Mr. Kiya and his team were amazing! They rewired our home up to code; added outlets in every room; fixed and cleaned up the panel; fixed and reinstalled the outdoor lights; and installed new light fixtures. All these with a minimal damage on walls and ceilings. His team was very professional, polite and hard workers. We are very pleased with their work.
What is most important, the job was done ON time, ON budget and NO surprises. We higly recomend Kiya Sunrise and from now on will be our first choice on future works.

Kiya was great. We had a few small things that needed to be taken care of, that other electricians wanted to charge us an arm and a leg for, or wouldn't bother at all since we were in Markham. Kiya was extremely efficient while he was here. We discovered the next day that one of the sockets was still not working, so we had to call him back. He's a very busy guy - so it took a few tries to get him, but he was totally nice about it. I'll for sure hire him again for bigger jobs. THANKS KIYA!

Kiya and his team were great. We had several quotes for the work we wanted to get done and Kiya’s was the most honest. He explained everything and even told us how to fix some things on our own where others were going to charge us for simple fixes. He also made some great recommendations which saved us a lot on money. The work was done quickly and extremely well! Thanks Kiya, we will be recommending you to anyone who asks.

Full renovation of older home. Knob and tube needed to be replaced in a two storey house. Kia responded to phone message promptly and scheduled an apt. He came when he said he would come and he was able to start the job quickly. Another bonus was that the job was completed quickly. All of his staff are friendly and polite and hard workers. We are pleased with electrical work that was done (some still needs to be completed though). One small area of imporvement is to prepare the home owners for the mess. More time and explanation should have been given regarding REALLY covering up household items because of the dust....plaster dust everywhere. Clean up was performed on a daily basis but towards the end it was a little lacking.
As for cost, Kia's price was competitive.
We are very pleased with the work overall and would recommend him.
Pleasure to deal with all Sunrise electrical staff.

Kia was amazing... He had 8 people in my house and rewired my whole house upto code. He did a lot of extra work above and beyond what i asked of him! Great service & excellent work!

I highly reccomend using him!

In addition to completing the job on time as promised Kiya, made sure we understood all the work we were doing. Perhaps most impressive was the fact that he came back the day after at our request to ensure that his work was not responsible for a purely coincidental leak. He not only checked his work with genuine concern but diagnosed - AND FIXED - the real problem as a courtesy. Hard to find guys like this. Kiya will be our first choice for all electrical jobs going forward. Highly recommend.
