Who are the best electricians in Mississauga in 2026?

The best electricians in Mississauga in 2026 are Pro House Maintenance, Gibson Electrical Contracting and Heights Electric. Longhouse Electric, Effective Wiring, SS Electrical, AMM Electric and Calvert complete the top eight. Every ranked firm has a 5.0 Google rating from 56 to 175 reviews and an active ESA licence. All seven have a Mississauga address.

1. Pro House Maintenance: best for comparing vetted electricians for free

Pro House Maintenance is a free matching service for Mississauga homeowners. Each electrician we match has passed ESA licence, WSIB, insurance, reference and background checks. You describe the job once, compare several written quotes and choose who to hire, and our satisfaction guarantee backs the work. It ranks first because the vetting is done before you call.

Mississauga is a smaller field than it looks. Our search turned up 120 businesses, but only 33 local firms had strong ratings, and 9 of those were not matched to an active ESA licence by phone, website or name. We check the licence up front.

What we check before a electrician joins our network
  • Trade licences. We confirm an active ECRA/ESA licence. Ontario does not allow anyone to run an electrical contracting business without one.
  • WSIB clearance and liability insurance. We confirm a current WSIB clearance and commercial general liability insurance before a pro joins our network.
  • Reviews and references. We read public reviews and speak with past clients before a pro is accepted, looking for patterns, not one-off complaints.
  • Background checks. We run background checks before a pro is matched with homeowners, because the people in your home matter as much as the work.
How working with Pro House Maintenance works
  1. Tell us about the job. Share the project and your address through the free quote form. It takes about a minute.
  2. Get matched with vetted pros. We match you with several pros who have already passed our checks and serve your area.
  3. Compare written quotes. Each pro gives you a written quote, so you can compare price, scope and timing side by side.
  4. Hire with a guarantee behind you. You choose who to hire. Work from a pro we matched you with is backed by our satisfaction guarantee; ask us for the terms before you sign.
Cost to you: Free for homeowners. There is no charge to request quotes or to be matched.

How much does an EV charger or panel upgrade cost in Mississauga?

A typical Level 2 EV charger install in Ontario costs $800 to $1,800 when the panel has room, says a 2026 guide from KV Bear Electrical. Going from 100 to 200 amps costs about $2,500 to $5,000, based on a 2026 Ontario price list from Lumos Electric.

Panel room is the swing factor. KV Bear’s guide says a panel upgrade adds $2,500 to $5,000 when the charger needs more power than the home has. Alectra, which serves Mississauga, gives each home one free planned disconnect every 12 months, so book the upgrade to use it.

How do you choose an electrician in Mississauga?

Choose a Mississauga electrician by checking for an active ESA licence first, then WSIB clearance, insurance and a written contract. Ontario law forbids running an electrical contracting business without an ESA licence. The city also licenses renovation, plumbing and heating trades, so if your job mixes trades, ask which licences each one holds.

  1. Check the licence. Ontario law says no one can run an electrical contracting business without an ESA licence. Look up the licence number on ESA's Contractor Locator.
  2. Confirm WSIB clearance. Ask for the company’s WSIB account number and confirm a current clearance on WSIB’s free eClearance lookup.
  3. Ask for proof of liability insurance. A certificate of commercial general liability insurance should name the company that will do the work.
  4. Check the city licence. Mississauga requires a trade business licence for building renovation, plumbing and heating (HVAC) work. See the Mississauga trade business licensing page.
  5. Get it in writing. Under Ontario law, any home renovation contract worth more than $50 must be in writing, and the final price cannot exceed an estimate by more than 10% unless you agree (Ontario consumer protection rules).
  6. Keep the deposit small. Ontario recommends a down payment of no more than 10%, and never paying in full before the work is done.

ESA gives a blunt reason to check: “If an insurance claim links to work performed by an unlicensed electrician, your claim may be denied.” Its guide to hiring a licensed contractor says licensed firms file the permit, so ESA then checks the work.

Pro House Maintenance checks the ESA licence, WSIB, insurance and references before we match you. If you want rooftop solar later, you can also compare solar panel installers in Mississauga and plan one panel upgrade for both.

How did we rank these Mississauga electricians?

We ranked these electricians with data, not ads. Our Google Maps searches for electricians found 120 businesses. We kept 33 local firms with a website and 4.5 stars from 10 or more reviews. The 24 that matched an active ESA licence were then ranked by review-weighted rating.

ESA licensing is a hard gate for this trade. ESA’s public registry held 18,642 contractor records when we downloaded it on October 2, 2026, including 497 with a valid licence and a Mississauga address. Nine of our 33 rated firms were not matched by phone, website or name, so they are not ranked.

The score blends each Google rating with its review count, so a 5.0 from 175 reviews beats a 5.0 from 15. Every ranked firm has a 5.0, so review count decided the order. We recheck ratings, licences and website facts every 90 days.

What do Mississauga homeowners ask before hiring an electrician?

People in Mississauga who plan an EV charger, a bigger panel or a wiring fix ask the same few things. The answers below use ESA's own advice, Alectra's posted rules, the city's licence list and 2026 Ontario price guides. Each one stands alone, so skip to the question you need.

How much does an EV charger installation cost in Mississauga?

Most Level 2 EV charger installs in Ontario cost $800 to $2,500, and a simple job near the panel runs $800 to $1,800, says a 2026 KV Bear Electrical guide. A panel upgrade adds $2,500 to $5,000. ESA says every EV charger install needs a permit before work starts.

Does Mississauga require electricians to hold a city licence?

Electricians need a licence from ESA, the provincial safety body. Ontario law says no one can run an electrical contracting business without one. The city's own trade licences cover renovation, drain laying, paving, heating and plumbing. Look up any ESA number in the Contractor Locator before you sign.

Will Alectra cut the power for a panel upgrade in Mississauga?

Yes, Alectra says each residential customer gets one free planned disconnect every 12 months, booked through its New Connections team. It also says there can be other costs tied to an upgrade, and it lists them on the service design for your home.

Does my Mississauga home have aluminum wiring?

It might, if it was built between the mid-1960s and late 1970s, says ESA. Some insurers will not cover or renew these homes without an ESA inspection. ESA tells owners to hire a licensed contractor who knows aluminum wiring, then keep the Certificate of Acceptance for the insurer.

Is Pro House Maintenance free to use?

Yes, it costs homeowners nothing. Tell us about your job once and we match you with several electricians who passed ESA licence, WSIB, insurance, reference and background checks. You compare their written quotes and pick one, and our satisfaction guarantee backs work from an electrician we match you with.

Where can you find electricians near Mississauga?

The closest electricians lists to Mississauga cover Milton (20 km away), Toronto (22 km away) and Burlington (32 km away). Each list follows the same method: 4.5-star Google ratings from 10 or more reviews, official registry checks where Ontario requires a licence, and free vetted matching from Pro House Maintenance at number one.
