Yes. Hillsborough County Development Services requires electrical permits for service panel upgrades, subpanel additions, EV charging circuits, standby generators, and major rewiring projects. We handle the full permitting process, engineering diagrams, and schedule the final county inspection on your behalf.
Because your main breaker panel connects directly to TECO’s utility service lines, power must be disconnected at the meter can. We coordinate the meter release and disconnection with TECO in the morning, install your new 200A or 400A panel, pass a rough inspection, and coordinate same-day power restoration with TECO so your power is back on before evening.
Our service vans are based directly in South Hillsborough County. For urgent emergencies (burning smells, sparking breakers, water intrusion, or sudden total power loss), our average response time across Riverview, Brandon, Valrico, and Gibsonton is 30 to 60 minutes.

Zinsco and Federal Pacific panels manufactured between the 1960s and 1980s have documented manufacturing flaws: breakers fail to trip under short circuits (up to 25% failure rate) and breakers fuse directly to bus bars. Due to high fire risk, most Florida property insurers will deny or cancel homeowners coverage until the panel is upgraded.
Yes. We are certified Tesla Wall Connector installers and install all Level 2 universal EV chargers. We perform an NEC load calculation on your main breaker panel to verify capacity, run dedicated heavy-gauge copper wiring, and mount your charging unit.
