Conversations with Neighbours - Martin Kurek
On this episode of Conversations with Neighbours, host Myles Doak welcomes Martin Kurek, founder of Summerhill Electric Ltd.
Established in December 2023, Summerhill Electric is a residential electrical service provider based in Newmarket. After starting his career in 2013, Martin gained over a decade of experience working on major projects across Toronto, including CIBC Square, Scotiabank Arena, Etobicoke General Hospital, and Toronto Hydro buildings, before deciding to bring his skills and knowledge back home to serve his own community.
As a fully licensed electrical contractor, Martin built Summerhill Electric on quality workmanship, precision, and safety principles. His mission is simple: to deliver trusted electrical services while ensuring every project is completed with care and professionalism.
In this episode, Martin shares his journey from working on large-scale city projects to launching his own business, the lessons he’s learned in the trade, and the values that guide his work today. It’s a conversation about community, craftsmanship, and building something new close to home.
