electricians in North York.
There are 42 electrical contractors listed on Google Maps in North York. 33 of them put a website on the listing, and we opened every one of those 33 ourselves. Here is what was behind them.
3 of the 33 North York sites had nothing wrong with them at all. The other 30 had at least one of the faults listed above, and most had more than one. (North York is part of Toronto — we count the businesses that give North York as their address.)
What they are built on
3 of them are on
a free builder.
Behind the 33 sites we counted 4 platforms. The split says something about budget: 48% on WordPress usually means somebody was paid to build it, while the 3 on free builders were almost always put together by the owner.
What actually breaks
No analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does
on 12 of them.
12 of the 33 electrical contractors we opened in North York share the same fault: no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does. 10 have a second one on top of it — no structured data for google to read. None of this is visible to the owner, which is why it survives for years.
If you own one of these 33 sites, the order to fix them in is the order above: the fault 12 businesses share is the one your competitors have not fixed either, so it is where the cheapest advantage sits.
Who you are up against
88 reviews
from the top five.
The spread in North York is wide: from under 10 reviews in the bottom quarter to 229 at the top, with the middle at 27. 5 of the 42 electricians have passed a hundred.
North York is the 3rd largest market for electricians in our survey of the GTA, with 42 of them against 644 across the region. Review counts are not comparable between trades, so none of this means anything outside electricians.
What this means for you
The North York leaders
already fixed this.
5 of the five most-reviewed electricians in North York run a secure site that works on a phone. Between them they hold 932 reviews. That is the standard a customer compares you against before reading a word about you.
Where a electrician lands depends on how many services need a page of their own — $590 at the small end, $3,900 for a practice with a dozen. Nothing is due until it is finished. Full pricing.

Questions
Straight answers.
How many electricians are there in North York?
42 listings, of which 3 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 39 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.
How many Google reviews do I need to compete in North York?
To be average in North York you need 27. To be in the top quarter you need more than 69. To be visible next to the busiest electrician here you would need 229, which took them years. 29 of the 42 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.
What does a website for a electrician in North York cost?
Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.
