Custom Electrical Projects




Reflection Electric designs and builds custom electrical solutions for homes across Terrebonne, Mascouche, Laval, and the Laurentians. From home theaters and dedicated workshop circuits to outdoor kitchens, barn wiring, detached garage power, and home office setups — we engineer each project to your exact requirements. As CMEQ-certified master electricians, we handle the design, permitting, and installation so your space works exactly as intended with clean, code-compliant wiring.
Every custom project starts with understanding how you'll use the space. Reflection Electric installs dedicated 20A and 30A circuits for workshops, welders, and compressors. We run subpanels to detached garages, barns, and accessory buildings. We wire home theaters with isolated circuits to eliminate electrical noise, and set up home offices with dedicated power, surge protection, and structured data cabling. If your project doesn't fit a standard service page, this is where we build it — engineered to your specifications with proper load calculations and future-proofing.
Reflection Electric treats custom projects with the same rigor as a panel upgrade or generator install. We pull all necessary permits, coordinate inspections, route wiring cleanly through walls, ceilings, and conduit, and label every circuit for future serviceability. Whether it's a single dedicated outlet in a tricky location or a full electrical build-out for a renovation, every project includes a walkthrough, full testing, and our workmanship guarantee. No shortcuts, no exposed wiring, no guesswork.
WHY CHOOSE REFLECTION ELECTRIC
Creative Problem-Solving Meets Code Compliance
Custom electrical work is where experience makes the biggest difference. Every project comes with unique challenges — unusual spaces, specific equipment requirements, coordination with other trades, and aesthetic considerations that go beyond standard residential wiring.
We thrive on these projects. Our electricians bring creative problem-solving to every challenge while maintaining strict code compliance and professional finish quality. From a backyard pizza oven with outdoor lighting to a fully wired workshop with home automation controls, we design systems that work for your specific needs — not a generic template.

Everything You Need to Know
How much does home automation installation cost?
Reflection Electric's home automation projects start at $500 CAD and scale based on scope. Replacing a few switches with smart dimmers and setting up voice control sits at the lower end, while a full Control4 whole-home system with lighting, shades, climate, security, and audio integration is a larger investment. During your consultation, Reflection Electric assesses your home, discusses which devices and platforms fit your lifestyle, and provides a detailed quote covering hardware, wiring, installation, and programming.
What smart home platform should I choose — Lutron, Control4, or Alexa/Google?
Reflection Electric installs all three approaches and recommends based on your needs and budget. Lutron is the gold standard for lighting and shade control — rock-solid reliability, beautiful keypads, and seamless dimming. Control4 is best for homeowners who want centralized whole-home control of lighting, shades, climate, audio, security, and locks from one interface. Open-ecosystem setups using Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit offer the most flexibility and lowest entry cost — ideal for starting small and expanding over time. We often combine platforms, using Lutron for lighting and shades with Alexa or HomeKit as the voice layer.
Do my switches need neutral wires for smart home devices?
Most smart switches and dimmers require a neutral wire in the switch box to operate. Many older Quebec homes were wired without neutral wires at switch locations, which prevents standard smart switches from working. Reflection Electric solves this two ways: we can run neutral wires to switch boxes as part of the installation, or we can install systems like Lutron Caseta that work without neutral wires using their proprietary wireless technology. During your assessment, we check every switch location and recommend the best approach for your home's wiring.
Can you automate an existing home or only new construction?
Reflection Electric automates existing homes regularly across Terrebonne, Laval, and the Laurentians — no renovation required. Wireless smart systems like Lutron Caseta, smart thermostats, and Wi-Fi-connected devices can be installed in any home without new wiring. For more advanced installations that benefit from hardwired connections — like Control4 keypads, in-wall speakers, or wired sensors — Reflection Electric routes wiring with minimal disruption to finished walls. New construction and renovations offer the ideal opportunity to pre-wire for automation, but it's absolutely not a requirement.
What are smart home scenes and how do they work?
A scene is a single command that controls multiple devices simultaneously. Reflection Electric programs custom scenes based on how you use your home. For example, a "Good Morning" scene can open bedroom shades, raise kitchen lights to 80%, set the thermostat to 21°C, and unlock the front door — all triggered by one button, voice command, or schedule. A "Movie Night" scene can dim living room lights, lower shades, and turn off upstairs lights. We program scenes during installation and teach you how to create and modify your own.
Will smart home devices still work if my internet goes down?
It depends on the platform. Reflection Electric prioritizes systems that maintain local control during internet outages. Lutron Caseta and RadioRA operate entirely on a local network — your lights and shades work perfectly with no internet. Control4 also runs locally for core functions. Some cloud-dependent devices like certain smart plugs and voice assistants lose remote control without internet, but physical switches and local automation rules continue to work. We design your system so that essential functions — lights, shades, climate — never depend on a cloud connection.
How long does home automation installation take?
Reflection Electric typically completes a starter smart home setup — a few smart switches, a hub, and voice assistant configuration — in half a day. A whole-room Lutron lighting and shade system takes one to two days. A full Control4 whole-home installation with lighting, shades, climate, security, and audio can take three to five days depending on scope and whether new wiring is needed. During your consultation, Reflection Electric provides a specific timeline and schedules installation to minimize disruption to your household.
