Question 1

Do you offer emergency electrical services?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes. Our licensed electricians provide 24/7 emergency service across Miami-Dade and Broward counties. We immediately dispatch for sparking outlets, burning plastic smells, dead main panels, and storm damage to ensure your family's safety.

Question 2

How quickly can you arrive for an electrical emergency?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

For active electrical emergencies (sparking, smoke, or total panel failure), we typically arrive within 60 to 90 minutes. Our dispatch team prioritizes high-risk situations to secure your property and restore safe power immediately.

Question 3

Are your electricians licensed and insured?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes. Solomon Electric is a fully licensed Florida Electrical Contractor (License #EC13012419). We carry comprehensive liability and workers' compensation insurance, ensuring you are 100% protected on every residential and commercial project.

Question 4

Do you provide free estimates for electrical work?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide free, upfront, written estimates for all new installations, panel upgrades, and rewiring projects. Once we diagnose an issue, the price we quote is the exact price you pay—no hidden fees or surprise hourly charges.

Question 5

What areas in South Florida do you serve?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

We serve all of Miami-Dade, Broward, and southern Palm Beach counties. Our primary service areas include Miami, Coral Gables, Ft. Lauderdale, Hollywood, Weston, Boca Raton, and surrounding coastal communities.

Question 6

How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

You need a panel upgrade if: 1) Your breaker trips frequently, 2) You hear buzzing/crackling from the box, 3) It feels hot to the touch, 4) It's an outdated brand (Federal Pacific, Zinsco), or 5) You are adding an EV charger or pool.

Question 7

What types of electrical projects do you handle?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

We provide comprehensive residential and commercial electrical services. Our expertise includes: 1) Circuit and panel upgrades, 2) Whole-home rewiring, 3) Generator installations, 4) EV charger setups, and 5) Outlet, switch, and lighting installations.

Question 8

What is a 4-Point Inspection and why does my insurance require a panel upgrade?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

A 4-Point Inspection evaluates HVAC, plumbing, roof, and electrical systems. Florida insurers often require electrical upgrades to maintain coverage if your panel is over 30 years old, uses cloth wiring, or is a hazardous brand (Federal Pacific/Zinsco).

Question 9

Are there tax credits available for EV charger installation in Florida?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes. The Federal Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Tax Credit (Section 30C) covers up to 30% of EV charger hardware and installation costs. We provide the itemized service records and final permit documentation required to claim these incentives.

Question 10

How does South Florida's salt air affect my electrical system?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Coastal salt air rapidly accelerates corrosion on outdoor service masts, meter bases, and internal panel connections, creating severe fire risks. Coastal properties (like those in Miami Beach or coastal Broward) require marine-grade materials and inspections every 2-3 years.

Question 11

Do you handle all necessary permitting for electrical work?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes. We manage the entire permitting process from start to finish. We submit applications, ensure compliance with local Florida Building Codes (and city-specific amendments), and coordinate all municipal inspections to guarantee your project passes safely.

Question 12

Can you upgrade an older home's wiring without destroying the walls?

Solomon Electric · Accepted Answer

Yes. We specialize in minimally invasive rewiring for older South Florida homes. By using tactical fishing techniques and specialized tools, we minimize drywall or plaster damage while fully replacing outdated cloth or knob-and-tube wiring to modern code.
