Boca Raton is home to everything from historic estates in Old Floresta to modern luxury homes in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, mid-century ranches in Boca Raton Square, and family homes in West Boca communities like Boca Falls and Saturnia. Each neighborhood has unique electrical needs, and we’ve worked in all of them.
- Local expertise — We’re based in Boca Raton and know the area’s housing stock inside and out. From 1960s aluminum-wired homes in Boca Raton Hills to newer construction in East Boca and Mizner Park area condos, we understand the specific electrical challenges each era and style of home presents.

Common Electrical Issues in Boca Raton Homes
Based on our years of experience working in Boca Raton, here are the most common electrical problems we encounter:
Aluminum Wiring in 1960s-1970s Homes
A large number of Boca Raton homes built between 1965 and 1973 — particularly in neighborhoods like Boca Raton Square, Boca Raton Hills, and areas along Palmetto Park Road — contain single-strand aluminum branch circuit wiring. This wiring type is a documented fire hazard and many Florida insurance companies are now requiring remediation or full replacement. We provide both aluminum wiring remediation (COPALUM crimp connections at every outlet/switch/junction) and complete whole-home copper rewiring depending on your situation and budget.
Undersized Electrical Panels
Many older Boca Raton homes still have original 100-amp or even 60-amp electrical panels that can’t handle modern electrical loads — air conditioning, pool equipment, EV chargers, home offices with multiple computers, and smart home devices. If your breakers trip frequently, you can’t run multiple appliances simultaneously, or you’re planning a kitchen renovation or pool installation, a 200-amp panel upgrade is likely overdue.
Hurricane & Storm Damage
Boca Raton sits in one of the highest-risk hurricane zones in the country. After every major storm, we see damaged service entrance cables, failed weatherheads, water intrusion into panels, surge damage to electronics, and downed trees pulling on service wires. If your home experienced a hurricane or severe thunderstorm and you haven’t had the electrical system inspected, schedule one now — hidden damage can cause fires weeks or months later.
Outdated Outlets & No GFCI Protection
Older Boca Raton homes often lack GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas — a serious shock hazard and code violation. They may also have ungrounded two-prong outlets that can’t properly protect your electronics. We install GFCI outlets and bring your home up to current safety standards.
Pool & Outdoor Electrical Issues
With Boca Raton’s outdoor lifestyle, many homes have pools, hot tubs, outdoor kitchens, and landscape lighting systems that require specialized electrical work. Pool equipment (pumps, heaters, salt generators, lights) requires dedicated circuits, GFCI protection, proper bonding and grounding, and regular inspection. Corroded connections and damaged underground wiring are common in South Florida’s salt-air environment.
Frequently Asked Questions — Electrician in Boca Raton
How much does it cost to hire an electrician in Boca Raton?
Electrician rates in Boca Raton vary by the type of work. Service calls for troubleshooting and minor repairs typically run $150-$350. Common project costs include: panel upgrades ($2,500-$4,500), EV charger installation ($1,200-$3,000), whole-home rewiring ($8,000-$40,000+ depending on home size), and generator installation ($5,000-$18,000). We provide free written estimates for all projects so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Boca Raton?
Yes, most electrical work in Boca Raton requires a permit. The City of Boca Raton Building Division requires permits for panel upgrades, new circuits, rewiring, generator installation, EV charger installation, and most electrical modifications beyond simple fixture swaps. Permits ensure the work is inspected for safety and code compliance. We pull all required permits and schedule inspections as part of every project — it’s included in our pricing, never an extra charge.
How quickly can you get to my Boca Raton home?
Since we’re based in the Boca Raton area, we can typically schedule standard service calls within 1-3 business days. For emergencies, we offer same-day response — in most cases, our electrician can be at your Boca Raton home within 1-2 hours. Call (561) 403-8759 for immediate scheduling.
Are you licensed to do electrical work in Boca Raton?
Yes. HMG Electrical holds Florida Electrical Contractor License EC-13010199, which authorizes us to perform electrical work in Boca Raton and throughout the state of Florida. We’re also fully insured with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage. You can verify our license status on the Florida DBPR website.
Do you work on older Boca Raton homes?
Absolutely — that’s our specialty. Many of Boca Raton’s most established neighborhoods (Old Floresta, Boca Raton Square, Camino Gardens, Boca Raton Hills) contain homes built in the 1950s through 1970s with outdated electrical systems. We have extensive experience working in these homes, including aluminum wiring remediation, panel upgrades, whole-home rewiring, and bringing older systems up to current code while respecting the character and craftsmanship of the home.
Can you install a whole-home generator for hurricane season?
Yes. We’re authorized dealers and installers of Generac, Kohler, and Cummins standby generators. A whole-home generator is one of the best investments a Boca Raton homeowner can make — it automatically powers your entire home within seconds of a power outage, protecting your family, food, medical equipment, and property. See our generator installation page for pricing and details.
