Emergency electrician in Jupiter, FL

Burning smells, sparks, smoke or a hot panel are emergencies: leave the area and call 911 first. For power loss, tripping mains or storm damage, an electrician with after-hours service can help.

What to know in Jupiter

Jupiter sits where the Loxahatchee River meets the Atlantic, so many homes deal with salt air, humidity and summer storms that are hard on outdoor electrical equipment.

Permits in Jupiter go through the Town of Jupiter building department. Emergency repairs may still need a permit afterward.

What the job usually involves

• Making the situation safe
• Finding the fault

Questions to ask before you hire

• Is there an after-hours fee?

• What is your Florida license number? (Verify the license on myfloridalicense.com)
• Are you insured, and can you send a certificate of insurance?
