I was in the midst of doing a home renovation and I wanted to have new lights installed, inside and out, lighting fixture positions changed, power rerouted to my garage and lights and power outlets added to it.

Earlier in the project, I’d had from an unhappy experience with an unreliable electrician so I reached out to a more knowledgeable friend seeking a better option. He recommended his brother to me—Cory, at Empowercom. I felt comfortable with this because I’d known and been friends with him long enough to know that he wouldn’t steer me wrong, even to help his brother.

Cory is absolutely brilliant. I didn’t know what to expect, really, so he walked me through every aspect of the project over the phone. His expertise was apparent from that first contact. He was patient and kind and thankfully he didn’t spout electrician’s jargon so I could easily understand everything he said to me.

On the same day he finished the work, he came out to make sure everything was working for me the way I wanted it to. He even rechecked a second and third time to make sure I was still satisfied. He also spotted and rectified an issue of some unsafe wiring that I wasn’t aware in my roof-space. He took these extra steps, I’m sure, to show he really cared about my results and about my ongoing satisfaction.


Cory was very clean, always on time, and he even bought the lights for me. I picked them out, and he went right out and got them.

I’m thrilled with the work Cory did for me. The new lights at the front of my home are controlled by a sensor so they come on automatically at the right time every night without my having to think about it. And the improvements to the inside of my home, with its modern light fittings and increased lighting throughout, make it a real pleasure to get around in and enjoy.

I trusted Cory 100%. I could tell he really knew what he was doing so I didn’t feel the slightest need to check up on him at all. Instead, I was able to give all of my time and attention to my favourite day time guilty pleasure, The Bold & The Beautiful.

Thank you, Cory at Empowercom, for empowering me with lighting and with my new ability to enthusiastically recommend a wonderful electrician to my friends, neighbours and relatives!
