Historic district homes, Lincolnville, Davis Shores, the Shores and the Anastasia Island beaches — rewired and brought up to code by electricians who work on old houses without wrecking them.
St. Johns County · 24/7 emergency service
St. Augustine, FL
Most St. Augustine electrical work comes down to one question: what is actually behind the wall, and how many people have been in there before us?
Homes in the historic district and Lincolnville predate residential wiring entirely, so everything in them was added later — often several times over, occasionally without a permit. Knob-and-tube remnants, ungrounded two-prong circuits, mixed conductor types spliced together, and service that was never sized for air conditioning are all normal findings rather than surprises.
What makes this different from ordinary old-house work is that the building matters. These are protected structures with plaster, heart pine and lath that cannot simply be opened up. Getting to code here means planning routes carefully and accepting that the slow approach is the correct one.
Beyond the old town, the work changes. Davis Shores, St. Augustine South and the Shores are mid-century and later, where capacity is the issue. Vilano Beach, Crescent Beach, Butler Beach and Anastasia Island add salt air, which attacks outdoor receptacles, disconnects and fixtures. Vacation rentals throughout bring intermittent occupancy, where a developing fault can sit unnoticed for weeks.

Our Services
Twelve service areas covering repair, capacity, safety and outdoor power — all handled by licensed electricians working to current code.
The panel is the control center of the home. When it is outdated, overloaded or no longer code-compliant, it limits capacity and becomes a safety concern.
Learn more ›Modern homes draw far more power than older systems were designed for. Upgrades add the capacity that appliances, HVAC and smart devices actually need.
Learn more ›Scheduled maintenance catches worn components and loose connections before they become outages, hazards or emergency repair calls.
Learn more ›Not every problem is visible. Inspections find outdated panels, loose wiring, overloaded circuits, improper grounding and storm damage.
Learn more ›Hurricanes, tropical storms and lightning take the grid down without warning. Backup power keeps essential systems running when it happens.
Learn more ›Florida homes take constant electrical stress from lightning, outages and utility fluctuations. Whole-home protection guards sensitive equipment.
Learn more ›Electric vehicles need far more capacity than a standard outlet can safely supply. Proper installation means a dedicated, correctly sized circuit.
Learn more ›Lighting affects safety, visibility, security and energy use. New fixtures, recessed lighting and full replacements, wired correctly.
Learn more ›Ceiling fans improve airflow and efficiency, which matters in Florida homes where heat and humidity run most of the year.
Learn more ›Solar depends on sound electrical infrastructure — inverters, disconnects, grounding and surge protection all have to be right.
Learn more ›Outdoor lighting adds curb appeal and nighttime safety across walkways, architecture and landscaping.
Learn more ›Visibility and security for any property with outdoor parking. Failing lighting creates real liability.

Nearly fifty years of residential work in the same four counties, under one Florida electrical contractor license.
Florida electrical contractor license EC13003957. Every install is done to current code and inspected against it.
Nearly five decades working on Florida homes, through the storm seasons, the salt air and the grid conditions that come with them.
Homes, not commercial buildings. The failure patterns in a Florida house are what we see every day.
We find the cause before quoting the fix. Replacing a breaker that keeps tripping solves nothing if the circuit is overloaded.
You approve the scope and the price before work starts. No discovering the number at the end.
Electrical emergencies do not keep business hours. Neither does the phone.
How It Works
The same five steps on every call, from the first phone conversation through to the final code check.
Tell us what the system is doing. Symptoms matter — when it happens, what else is running, whether anything smells or feels warm.
A licensed electrician tests the circuit, panel and connections to find the actual cause rather than the visible symptom.
You get the scope and the price before any work begins, including what is required for code compliance.
The work is completed to current code, using correctly sized components for the load the home actually carries.
We test the repair under load and confirm the installation meets code before we leave.
24/7 Emergency Electrical
Burning smells, scorched or warm outlets, sparking, repeated breaker trips or a panel that is hot to the touch are signs to stop using the circuit and call an electrician. We answer around the clock.
