H & R began in 1997 as an electrical contractor, and electrical is still the core of what we do. We take on everything from a single dead outlet to the full electrical package on a commercial build.
Every job is wired to current Ontario code, permitted where required, and inspected before we hand it over.
Residential, commercial and industrial, all done by our own licensed crews.
Older 60 and 100 amp services often can't carry a heat pump, an EV charger or a renovated kitchen. We upgrade panels and services, add sub-panels and circuits, and wire backup power.
Older Ottawa homes are our bread and butter. We have seen what is behind the plaster in a century home in the Glebe and in a 1960s bungalow in Alta Vista.
From a few pot lights to a full custom LED design. See a recent LED lighting project.
Home and workplace charger installs, including any panel or service work the charger needs.
Offices, retail, restaurants, plants and warehouses. We work around your hours and keep downtime short.
Breakers that keep tripping, outlets that went dead, or an old system you want checked before you buy or renovate.
New air conditioning or HVAC equipment usually needs electrical work too. We're licensed for electrical and gas, so the equipment, the new circuit and any panel upgrade come on one quote from one company.
