Storm Damage Replacement • New Construction Hookup • 200-Amp Upgrades • Lee County Permitted • Licensed Electrician
Fort Myers Beach was among the hardest-hit communities in Hurricane Ian’s path. Most structures sustained significant damage, and the rebuild effort has brought a massive wave of electrical work — from new construction hookups to post-storm panel replacements and service restoration. The older Fort Myers Beach housing stock, built heavily in the 1960s and 1970s, also carries a legacy of undersized panels, Federal Pacific breakers, and aluminum branch circuit wiring.
ElectriciansX works throughout Fort Myers Beach on panel replacements, post-storm electrical restoration, and new construction service installations. We pull Lee County permits, coordinate with FPL on service connections, and get the work done correctly so it passes inspection the first time.
Many Fort Myers Beach homes suffered direct hurricane damage to their electrical service entrance, meter base, or panel. We remove damaged equipment, install new panels and service entrance conductors, and coordinate the FPL service reconnection.
The Fort Myers Beach rebuild has brought significant new construction. We install new electrical services — panel, meter base, service entrance — for new builds and additions requiring Lee County permits.
Older Fort Myers Beach homes that survived Ian often have decades-old FPE Stab-Lok panels. Insurance companies are increasingly refusing coverage on these panels. We document and replace them with modern load centers.
Post-Ian demand for generator capability is high on Fort Myers Beach. We install Generac generators with automatic transfer switches or manual interlock kits on upgraded panels so you’re prepared for the next storm.
