Electricians in Newmarket, Ontario

The older houses around Main Street and the original town — Newmarket built one home in ten before 1961 — are where older panels and two-prong outlets still turn up. The electricity comes from NT Power, and every job is filed with ESA by the licensed contractor, not with the Town. Doyo starts in Newmarket: describe the job, see the full price before you book, and pay only when it is done.

Electrical in Newmarket: what to know

About Newmarket

Electricity

NT Power (Newmarket-Tay Power Distribution) delivers the electricity in Newmarket, and takes service-upgrade and meter-relocation requests through its online form. Both councils approved selling NT Power to Alectra in March 2026; the sale is before the Ontario Energy Board, and NT Power keeps operating until it closes.

Electrical permits

Newmarket does not issue electrical permits. In Ontario the licensed electrical contractor files the work with the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA), which inspects it. Ask your electrician for the ESA notification number.

The housing here

Heritage district

The Lower Main Street South Heritage Conservation District is Newmarket’s one heritage district. Alterations to a property there need a heritage permit; general repairs to eavestroughs, roofs, chimneys, fences and existing cladding are exempt.

Help centre

You see the price before you book. Some jobs are a flat price, some are priced by the measure — a bedroom, a window, a square foot — and some are by the hour; the page says which, and so does the app before you confirm. Prices on this site are the full price, Doyo’s service fee included — nothing is added at checkout. Your card is held when a pro is confirmed and charged only when the job is marked complete. If the work turns out bigger, the pro has to put the new figure to you in the chat and wait for your yes — under Ontario law they cannot charge more than 10% over the estimate without your agreement.
