Electrical services in Sarasota
These are the Sarasota jobs we take. Permits follow the jurisdiction the address sits in, not a single county form.
Panel upgrades in Sarasota
Service changes and panel changeouts for mainland houses and older downtown homes. We pull the permit, confirm the Florida Power & Light account, and schedule the disconnect before the panel comes off the wall.
Condo and island circuits
Dedicated circuits, lighting, and panel capacity checks for condos and houses on Siesta Key, Lido Key, and Bird Key. Salt air eats exterior gear. We match fittings and listings to that exposure.
EV charger circuits
Home and small-building EV circuits in Sarasota after a panel load check. A charger does not go in if the service cannot carry it.
Rewires and remodeling
Rewires, additions, and remodel circuits for Sarasota houses and tenant spaces. Open walls get new wiring, not a cover plate over an undersized circuit.
Troubleshooting
Tripping breakers, partial power, dead circuits, and storm damage on Sarasota service calls. We diagnose before we sell a panel.
Commercial build-outs
Tenant improvements, equipment circuits, and lighting retrofits in Sarasota commercial space. Larger industrial work is scoped on site, not priced from a photo.
City of Sarasota and Sarasota County are not the same permit
An address inside the City of Sarasota is permitted through City of Sarasota Development Services, Building and Permitting. The city is on the 8th Edition 2023 Florida Building Code and the 2020 National Electrical Code. Unincorporated Sarasota County, including Siesta Key, Osprey, and Nokomis, is permitted through Sarasota County Planning and Development Services. Longboat Key has its own building department. We confirm the jurisdiction before the permit is filed.
Most Sarasota accounts are Florida Power & Light. A panel or service change waits on that utility’s disconnect window, so we check the account before we set a day.
Sarasota work is scheduled from Punta Gorda. It is not a truck parked in the city. Downtown, Gulf Gate, Siesta Key, and the barrier islands are all in the service area. We do not list a Sarasota street address.
