Services and Repairs by South Florida Electricians

Electricians in South Florida can take on a variety of jobs, from straightforward fixes and fixture installations to more complex projects, such as panel repairs and upgrades and landscape lighting design. Electricians are also important resources for keeping your home's electrical system in good shape over the years and for helping you recover from a major storm.

Electrical safety in South Florida

As a South Florida resident, you've probably weathered your fair share of hurricanes and tropical storms. And you're likely well aware that water and electricity don't mix.

During a storm and after it has passed, be very cautious as you move around your house and neighborhood. Never touch a downed power line, and do not walk or drive through water that has a downed power line in it.

Always call an electrician in the following post-storm instances:

• Your home flooded and water rose above the level of any power outlets
• Your main electrical service panel is in a flooded room
• Any electrical devices or appliances have flooded or gotten wet

Since many home service providers will be experiencing high call volumes following a major storm, be prepared for a possible delay in service. Most importantly, don't touch electrical devices if they're wet or if you're standing in water—always wait for a pro to investigate and give you the OK to proceed.

Electrical repair

Keeping your home's electrical system in good repair is essential to a house that is safe for everyone in your family. Electrical problems typically worsen with time, so call a pro immediately if you notice anything out of the ordinary.

In particular, take note of the following common indicators that you should have an electrician inspect your house:

• Signs of a disruption in electrical current, such as flickering lights or power surges
• GFCI outlets and/or main panel devices that trip consistently (or that trip immediately after being reset)
• Power outlets or light switches that spark, are hot to the touch, or otherwise perform strangely

While the occasional tripped breaker usually isn't cause for alarm, the same problem happening over and over again does warrant investigation. Call an electrician as soon as possible if you see clear signs of current disruption or problems with switches or outlets.

Power surges, flickering lights, and hot or sparking outlets and switches are all signs that there is something wrong with the amount of electricity flowing through a circuit. If this problem isn't corrected, it can cause an electrical fire. Don't try to fix this problem yourself—always rely on the pros to do the work safely and correctly.
