The more informative response:
Working with Mark and team was one of the best I've had with contractors. From the onset, Mark let me know what to expect from the job parameters and also the expected costs. During the quotation process, Mark didn't pull a quote out of thin air, like I felt many other contractors do but rather he had a listing of prices, to which he based his quotes. This way, I was comforted in knowing that if there were to be any unexpected costs, any prices would be in accordance to his formal pricing list and not how much he felt he can charge me, like some other contractors may do.
During the job, Mark was onsite and explained to me throughout the process why they are doing certain tasks. This way, I understood the reasons for their work. When I asked questions, Mark answered. And when I asked for his best opinion as to electrical/lighting setup, Mark tailored his advice based on the characteristics of my house.
As an older house in Toronto, of course we found some items outside of the original quote that needed fixing. But again, due to Mark's clear explanations and advice, we quickly resolved those outstanding issues to bring the house to the modern electrical and safety standard it should be in the 21st century.
Mark and team were also able to work in the house alongside other contractors, in order to fit my timing, which was an added bonus. And even though the home was undergoing renovations, Mark and team was still courteous enough to sweep up at the end of the day, which to me, was an added example of how they respected me and the family home.
Thank you Mark and team for all of your hard work. This house finally is modernized and can be fully appreciated!

Mark Burton was a professional on every level. Prior to the job Mark phoned to confirm the job, the date and time he would arrive. Mark was courteous, efficient, and willing to share his knowledge. Job well done.

Mark was great to work with! During the initial meet and quote stage, he was very patient with my questions and helpful with recommendations.
Mark and his apprentice arrived on time and kept me informed throughout the process, kept work areas as clean as possible and were both very friendly. I am really happy with the work and I would highly recommend Mark!

... And that's just up to the date I wrote this review! I asked Mark to come and help us with a variety of electrical jobs around our new house. He has been equal to any task we put before him, but that's really just the beginning with Mark. He doesn't just do his job - well - and leave. Mark KNOWS electricity in and out - my impression is that he sees every electrical challenge as a teaching moment. Before he leaves YOU will also understand the challenge - and the solution. There's another thing about Mark too - if there is a solution to a complicated electrical problem (and our house presented several) he will find it. We've been very happy with Mark's work and have more jobs planned in the near future!

Excellent service. Courteous , clean, informative and accommodating of our needs especially since we are all working from home during Covid. He went out of his way to be sure any interruptions of our working space or power did not happen during a Video call.
Area of installation was cleaned up after he finished work and the installation was perfect. We've used Burton for many different projects over the years and would not think of calling anyone else for our electrical needs.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to review our company.
Your thoughtful words are very much appreciated.
Enjoy your new installation.

The Burton Electric Team.
We initially had Mark over to provide us with an estimate prior to COVID. He gave us all the information and a very good price. Once the pandemic hit he kept us updated as to when he could do the work and it was completed when he said it would be and did a great job. I would definitely recommend him.
Thanks Jos.
Enjoy the new home.
Take Care

I chose Burton electric for a panel upgrade (residential) as when I reached out for a quote, Mark came by, checked out the site, whereas other companies only asked for pictures. He was thorough, informative, and friendly. He let us know what to expect during the service process, and was upfront about pricing and how the final total is calculated.
Mark was also communicative leading up to the service with confirmation calls. After the installation, he walked us through how to use the panel (i.e. resetting breakers properly) to avoid future service calls, and the service itself flew by and didn't take as long as we anticipated.
