Meet the Face Behind CFI Electric Ltd.

CFI ELECTRIC LTD.   |   Oct 28, 2020

I’m Corneliu, proud owner of CFI Electric Ltd.

I look forward to sharing my story. I hope that you will enjoy getting to know me better.

I grew up in Romania and have been in the electrical business for more than forty-four years.

CFI Electric Ltd. offers a host of electrical services that cater to small and large homes, condos, business offices, commercial and industrial locations or warehouses and more. We are still in business today because we provide all our clients with the highest quality electrical work when they need it, or when they have a project that requires it.

The most enjoyable part of my work is observing the fruits of my labor in action. What do I mean by this? I once had a client who needed a serious power boost to their building because their servers needed more power. They had ordered and set up the machines but were just waiting to be plugged in and turned on.

When you have a lot of machines that use extensive amounts of electricity, you need to be sure your circuits can handle that load, otherwise, you will find yourself in a host of problems. After I performed the upgrade, which took about four business days to complete, they were able to operate all of their servers at the same time. This made the client very happy and in turn, made me happy that everything worked out the way it was supposed to.

My responsibilities begin with checking for client communications by phone or email after which, I try to get back to each one of them in the order they came as soon as possible. I believe that punctuality, professionalism and time efficiency are important skills if you want to be successful. Apart from these three aspects, I attribute my own success to my years of experience in the industry as well as the customer relationships I have developed over the years. Some of my clients really appreciate having a trusted electrician that will always be upfront about all the costs, project times, and overall convenient service. 

The most satisfying moment in my personal and business life was when I had such a drastic increase in electrical work volume that I was able to employ more people. The ability to give back to my field by employing younger electricians who are eager to earn experience and build their careers has been a great accomplishment.

Apart from my own line of work, I am a great admirer of Google. The sheer size of the company and the amount of money it can generate is mind-blowing. Obviously, when you deal with that kind of money, usually in the billions of dollars, you are able to start projects that really propel mankind further, technologically or otherwise.

While I am not at work, I enjoy flying, mostly small Cessna aircraft departing from and landing back to Markham Airport. I enjoy nature, observing birds of different sizes and colors, doing what they naturally do, so I'll go out for long walks when I find the time. Even when I am not working, I am still working in a way, as I have a small storage unit that I keep optimized in terms of organizing where materials and tools are stored so that I can find them easier. Believe it or not, this can really only be done during non-work hours.

I have enjoyed sharing my story about the things which matter to me and how they influence the way I do business.
