Electrical Work Built for Storm Country
Living on the Emerald Coast means power outages during hurricane season are a matter of when, not if. The homes that handle it best are the ones with updated panels, properly sized generators, and electrical systems that were installed to code — not cobbled together over 20 years of additions and upgrades.
Juan's team handles residential electrical work across Santa Rosa Beach, Destin, and Panama City Beach. Whether you need a panel upgrade, a whole-home generator, or outdoor lighting that can handle salt air, we do it right and pull the permits.
What We Do
- Panel upgrades — upgrading from 100-amp to 200-amp service to handle modern loads. Essential for older homes adding AC units, EV chargers, or pool equipment.
- Whole-home generators — automatic standby generators (Generac, Kohler) that kick on within seconds of a power loss. Sized to your home's load, installed on a proper pad, wired through an automatic transfer switch.
- Outdoor and landscape lighting — low-voltage LED path lighting, uplighting, deck and dock lighting. Marine-grade fixtures rated for salt air, not the stuff that corrodes in one season.
- New construction wiring — complete electrical rough-in and finish for new builds, additions, and remodels. Arc-fault and GFCI protection where code requires it.
- Hurricane prep — whole-home surge protection, generator hookups, and manual transfer switches for portable generators. The work you want done before the storm, not during.
- Ceiling fans and fixtures — installation, replacement, and upgrades. Damp-rated and wet-rated fans for covered porches and outdoor living areas.
How We Work
Juan comes out, looks at your panel and your existing wiring, and talks through what you need. If it's a generator, he'll calculate your load so you get the right size — not the cheapest one or the biggest one, the right one. You get a written estimate. We pull the permit, do the work, and schedule the inspection. Most panel upgrades take 1 day. Generator installs run 2-3 days. Rewiring during a remodel depends on the scope.
Why It Matters Here
Coastal electrical work has problems you don't see inland. Salt air corrodes connections and outdoor fixtures. Sandy soil makes grounding more complicated. Lightning strikes are more frequent. And when a hurricane knocks out power for a week, the homes with properly installed generators and transfer switches are the ones where families stay comfortable and pipes don't freeze (yes, it happens in the Panhandle). We install with all of this in mind.
