I wanted to replace old electric panel with new 100 amp, with ESA certification for condo townhouse. Chris from CID Electric gave a reasonable quote, was on time for the work, coordinated with Toronto Hydro, ESA as needed. He did an excellent job with 100% professionalism and to my complete satisfaction. I would strongly recommend their service to friends and family. Thank you Christopher Del Ciancio!!

Circular LED ceiling light replacements

I had to replace the circular ceiling LEDs in my apartment after they stopped working, and I found Chris here on Homestars due to his excellent rating/reviews. I got into contact with him and was able to arrange an appointment on short notice.

He showed up on time, identified the problem immediately and told me what all of my options were, going through the prices of each. After I selected the option I wanted, he was available on short notice to take care of the problem, showed up on time again and fixed the issue quickly and competently.

I also had several other questions for him about other electrical issues that came up, and he helped me find solutions to those as well.

At all times he was extremely pleasant to deal with, professional, and competent, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needed an electrician.

Investigate and solve electricity problem to Dryer not working and installation of powder room vanity light.

Christopher arrived slightly before the scheduled 1pm appointment (great!) , very professionally introduced himself and enquired about my concerns related to the projects at hand. He was very thorough and thoughtful about investigating and solving the issues (which was subsequent to having a dryer technician try to fix the problem) and completed what needed to be done within an hour. He showed me what he found in the circuit box (a burned-out wire to the dryer circuit breaker - which could have caused a fire!) and explained what needed to be fixed in order to provide for a fully operating dryer. In addition, I was also pleased with his installation of a vanity light in the powder room; not only was the light operational but it was level and there were no scratches to the delicate globes he had to install. Overall, I would,
without hesitation, recommend Chris to help you with your electrical issues.

Had a great experience with Chris and his team. Professional, punctual and fairly priced. I especially appreciated the detailed quote and prompt attention to any questions that I had during the job. I also appreciated having a choice of pot light style! Great customer service and attention to detail. Would definitely recommend and use Encore for any electrical work we may need in the future. Thanks Chris!

Chris was excellent. Firstly, he showed up exactly when he promised! This is pretty unique in our experience. As well, he was efficient, explained everything clearly, friendly and he was very considerate of our place in terms of keeping things clean. We couldn't have asked for better service and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone needing an electrician.
