Licensed Electrician Serving Markham
Whether it’s a flickering light, a maxed-out panel, or a Level 2 EV charger you need mounted on the garage wall by Friday, Markham homeowners and businesses need a licensed electrician who shows up, does the work to code, and pulls the ESA paperwork. EZ Smart Electric is an ECRA/ESA Licensed Electrical Contractor serving Markham and the rest of York Region — from Unionville and Cornell to Cathedraltown and the Highway 7 commercial strip.

- 24/7 emergency — power out, sparks, or burning smell, day or night.
Every Job Meets the 2024 Ontario Electrical Safety Code
The 2024 Ontario Electrical Safety Code (based on the Canadian Electrical Code, 28th edition) came into force May 1, 2025 and is enforced on every renovation, panel upgrade, EV charger, and new circuit in Markham. EZ Smart Electric works to the current OESC, files the ESA notification through the online portal before we start, and hands you the signed Certificate of Acceptance after inspection — the same document your insurer and any future buyer will want to see.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I confirm my electrician is actually licensed in Markham?
Every legitimate Ontario electrical contractor has an ECRA/ESA licence number — you can search it at esasafe.com. If a contractor will not give you their licence number or it does not show up, walk away. EZ Smart Electric’s licence appears on every invoice and quote we send.
Do I need an ESA permit for small electrical work?
Most work beyond simple like-for-like fixture swaps needs an ESA notification — new circuits, panel changes, service upgrades, EV chargers, hot-tub disconnects, and additions all require one. When you hire EZ Smart Electric, we file it under our licence before we start; you do not touch the paperwork.
How fast can you get to a job in Markham?
Same-week service on scheduled work, same-day when the crew is close, and 24/7 dispatch for true emergencies (power out, smoke, sparks). Call to check availability for the day you need us.
Do you handle both residential and commercial in Markham?
Yes. Residential panel upgrades, whole-home rewires, and EV chargers on the home side; retail store fit-outs, office lighting retrofits, and light-industrial disconnects and receptacles on the commercial side.
