Your home’s electrical system is the backbone of every comfort system you rely on — heat, cooling, water heaters, sump pumps, and charging for your EV. The Gravity Group provides complete residential electrical service across Lindsay, Kawartha Lakes, Peterborough, Durham-area communities, and surrounding towns, with licensed electricians who work to ESA code and the Gravity Standard of clear, upfront communication.
Whether you need a 200-amp service upgrade, emergency troubleshooting at midnight, a Level 2 EV charger, lighting and outlet work, or the electrical side of a standby generator install, we handle it under the same roof as your plumbing and HVAC — so recommendations make sense for the whole home, not just one trade.
Older Ontario homes and cottages often still run on undersized panels, aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring, or overloaded circuits that trip when you add modern loads. We diagnose safely, explain your options in plain language, and complete upgrades that are ready for today’s appliances, heat pumps, and electric vehicles. Many projects qualify for flexible Financeit financing.

Learn more →Many homes across Lindsay, Kawartha Lakes, and Peterborough were built when 60- or 100-amp service was enough. Today’s loads — electric ranges, dryers, heat pumps, EV chargers, hot tubs, and home offices — push older panels past their limits. Overloaded service shows up as frequent breaker trips, warm panel covers, flickering lights when large appliances start, and insurance or inspection flags on older equipment.
A properly planned 200-amp upgrade gives you headroom for the equipment you have now and the upgrades you want next. We handle load calculations, utility coordination where required, panel replacement or relocation, grounding upgrades, and a clean finish that inspectors and insurers expect. Read our homeowner guide on why 200-amp service matters, or learn the difference between a breaker swap and a full panel replacement.
If you are adding a heat pump, planning a kitchen renovation, buying an EV, or installing a generator, it is often smarter to upgrade the service once than to keep patching capacity one circuit at a time.
Some electrical problems are inconveniences. Others are fire and shock hazards. Call Gravity immediately if you smell burning plastic or ozone near outlets or the panel, see sparking or scorched receptacles, lose power to part or all of the home without a utility outage, hear buzzing from the panel, or notice breakers that will not reset.
Our emergency electrical team answers 24/7 — nights, weekends, and holidays — with the same live-answer promise as our plumbing and HVAC lines. We prioritize safety first: isolate the hazard, restore critical circuits when it is safe to do so, and give you a clear repair-vs-upgrade path if the system is near end of life.
Not sure whether it can wait until morning? Err on the side of calling. Our emergency electrician guide for Peterborough-area homeowners walks through the most common red flags.
Level 2 EV chargers typically need a dedicated 40–60 amp circuit and a panel that can safely support the extra load. We size the circuit correctly, mount the charger where it makes sense for your driveway or garage, and confirm your service can handle charging alongside heat, hot water, and everyday living — or recommend a panel upgrade when it cannot.
Standby generators and GenerLink transfer systems are another common reason homeowners call us. Outages in rural Kawartha Lakes and cottage country can last longer than city outages; backup power keeps furnaces, sump pumps, well pumps, and refrigerators running. Gravity handles the electrical integration — transfer equipment, panel work, and testing — alongside generator installation. Learn more on our home generators page.
We also install whole-home surge protection, smoke and CO detector circuits, and dedicated runs for workshops, home offices, and renovation spaces so you are not daisy-chaining extension cords through overloaded outlets.
Kawartha Lakes cottages and older houses often still have aluminum branch circuits, knob-and-tube remnants, fuse panels, or mixed-era wiring that was never meant for today’s loads. Seasonal properties add another wrinkle: mice, moisture, and years of DIY add-ons can leave you with unsafe junctions and undersized feeders.
We inspect what is open and accessible, flag insurance and safety concerns honestly, and prioritize the work that reduces risk first — panel and service upgrades, GFCI/AFCI protection where required, and replacement of hazardous wiring — before cosmetic lighting projects. For cottage-specific planning, see our guide to cottage electrical upgrades in the Kawartha Lakes.
Because Gravity also handles plumbing and HVAC, we can coordinate mechanical and electrical work on the same property visit when renovations or whole-home upgrades are underway.
All electrical work is completed by licensed electricians to Ontario Electrical Safety Authority requirements. Where permits and inspections apply, we guide you through the process so the job is done legally and documentable for insurance and resale.
You get upfront options — repair what is failing, replace what is unsafe, or upgrade for future capacity — without pressure tactics. Larger projects such as 200-amp upgrades, generator installs, and EV charger packages often qualify for Financeit monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly payments, including promotional rates as low as 0% on approved credit.
Ask about current seasonal offers, and pair electrical protection with comfort coverage under 365 Gravity Shield for heating and cooling equipment in the same home.
