Full home electrical inspection
I hired Marrast Contracting for a full home electrical inspection and was extremely impressed. The inspection was completed by their Master Electrician, and they provided a detailed, formal report certified under ECRA/ESA.
Vishal M.
EV charger outlet
Marrast Contracting did an outstanding job installing my EV outlet. Shaldin and his team delivered exactly what I wanted, with minimal touch-ups needed afterwards. The process was clear, cost-effective, and I always knew what to expect. Shaldin went above and beyond to make sure I was completely satisfied. I'll definitely be turning to them again for future projects.

Panel, subpanel and new circuits
Have done business with this company twice now once for a panel & subpanel replacement and most recently for a few extra circuits. They were excellent both times, on time with quality, neat & certified work. Great contractor to deal with!

Outdoor outlets and panel advice
Marrast Contracting was a life saver -- actually a Xmas saver! All our outdoor plugs weren't working and [Shaldin] found the reset circuit (which was hidden) that allowed us to put up lights and trees for Christmas. [Shaldin] also provided us with a quote on cleaning up our horribly organized electrical panel and he also provided his recommendation on a couple of other electrical issues. He was on time, professional, friendly, and really knew his stuff. We'd definitely contract him again.

Pot lights, condo
Shaldin installed new pot lights in my condo and I'm thrilled with his work. Netsayi was also delightful to deal with for scheduling. I would recommend Marrast Contracting - fair pricing, solid work, with both clear and effective communication throughout.

Sconces and a pendant light, apartment
100% recommend! Marrast has been amazing to work with! Shaldin was super helpful in assessing and finding the right path forward for hardwiring sconces in my apartment without having to deal with concrete and Michael's attention to detail on the install was impeccable. I had them back this spring to install a ceiling medallion and pendant light and I love it! Will definitely be booking again when needed!

Fixes from a home inspection
The team at Marrast Contracting Inc were wonderful to work with! They helped us resolve a few issues found in our housing inspection. They responded promptly to the service request, provided dates shortly after we connected and were on time, and efficient in resolving the issues we noted. They provided guidance on things that did not need to be addressed and did not overcharge us. Shaldin and Mike were great, we highly recommend them for your electrical needs!
Katie V.
200A panel and Tesla charger
Shaldin and his team did a fantastic job replacing my 150A breaker panel with a 200A, and installing my Tesla charger. He was responsive via phone and text during the quoting stage and negotiated fairly and in good faith. Excellent communicator! He contacted the power company and helped arrange for disconnect. He is licensed and insured and provided proof. The installation proceeded without too many hiccups, and he honoured the lump sum pricing, even though the time to complete the install exceeded the estimated time. When changes were required to the scope of work, he asked for my approval before commencing, and we agreed on a fair price for the extra work.
Patrick Y.
EV charger
We are very pleased with the EV power installation at our home. The work was done in a timely and professional manner. [Shaldin] and his team provided excellent guidance regarding our best options. The friendly helpful service made it a very positive experience.

I can't say enough to recommend Shaldin and his team at Marrast Contracting. They handled my condo renovation with ease and the end result is gorgeous! A huge thank-you to Netsayi who helped with the design, provided tons of options, sourced fixtures and gave expert advice throughout. Every stage of this reno was done with extreme care and professionalism, and I would hire them again and again.
Tamara S.
New breaker panel
[Shaldin] and his apprentice from Marrast Contractors installed a new expanded 220 electrical breaker box at our home. Their professional knowledge and pride they took in their work impressed me greatly and I would recommend them for any electrical and/or renovation projects.
Jon S.
EV charger
I had an EV charger install which took around 3 hours; included running cables from the basement to front of garage. Very easy process, took a few pictures, received quote via email. Top notch quality, clean install. Shaldin is a great guy, super friendly and transparent.
D. Y.
Appliances and light fixtures
Good communication, arrived on time. I had them do a lot of work. Installed three appliances, remove and replace seven lights and change one receptacle. Solved a problem with the under counter lights I had chosen and went to get a better solution. Willing to take extra time to check positioning of new light fixtures to ensure proper look and lighting. I will use them again.
Steven R.

Questions
Yes. Marrast Contracting is a Licensed Electrical Contractor, licence ECRA/ESA 7016430, and every job is led by Shaldin Marrast, a Master Electrician. You can check our licence on the Electrical Safety Authority's contractor lookup at esasafe.com.
Most of our work is in Toronto and across the GTA: North York, Toronto, Forest Hill, Etobicoke, Scarborough, Mississauga, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Aurora, Newmarket and Brampton. We also work further out, in Oakville, Caledon, King, Barrie, Alliston, Wasaga Beach and Collingwood, and have gone as far as Wasaga Beach and Tiny for the right project. Jobs outside the city include travel time.
A service or diagnostic call is a first visit to find the cause of a problem. We give you the rate when you book, test the circuit, tell you what we found, and give you the price to fix it before we do any work. Many simple jobs can also be priced from photos.
It depends on the house. The biggest factor is whether the hydro service to your house is overhead or underground, followed by where the meter and panel sit and how much wiring needs to move. The utility matters too: Toronto Hydro charges a fee for the disconnect and reconnect, which Alectra and Hydro One customers usually don't pay. Send us photos of your panel and meter for a first idea, and we give you a fixed written quote after a site visit.
Yes. For an electrical emergency call (647) 930-2907 any time, day or night. If you see smoke or fire, leave the house and call 911 first. If a power line is down, stay well back and call your hydro utility's emergency line.
Every job comes with our 1-year workmanship warranty. Products carry their own manufacturer warranties on top of that, and standby generators can be covered by extended manufacturer warranties.
Request a call back and we'll get in touch within 30 minutes during office hours. For an emergency, call (647) 930-2907 any time.
