Emergency and after hours

24 hour electrician in Fort Myers: when to call and who to call

An emergency electrician handles faults that cannot wait for a booked visit. A burning smell, a scorched outlet, a panel that hums or feels hot, and half the house losing power are all urgent.

You can call (815) 456-4349 any time of day. We connect you with a Fort Myers electrician who takes urgent and after-hours jobs when one is available.

Some problems belong to someone else first. Fire or a shock is a 911 call. A downed line or a dark street is a call to your utility.

Permits

Electrical permits in Fort Myers: City or Lee County?

A Fort Myers mailing address does not mean the City issues your permit. Many Fort Myers addresses sit in unincorporated Lee County, which has its own permit office.

Inside Fort Myers city limits

City of Fort Myers Building, Permitting & Inspections Division. Phone 239-321-7925.

City Hall is at 2200 Second Street, Fort Myers, FL 33901. Permits are handled through the City's online permitting portal.

Unincorporated Lee County

Lee County Department of Community Development, 1500 Monroe Street, downtown Fort Myers.

Phone 239-533-8585.

Cape Coral and other cities in Lee County run their own permit offices.

  • Florida's 2023 Building Code (8th edition) uses the 2020 National Electrical Code.
  • Panel changes, new circuits, generators and service upgrades need a permit and an inspection.
  • The electrician pulls the permit. Ask for the permit number and keep the final inspection record.

Power and storms

FPL or LCEC: outages and hurricane season in Fort Myers

Florida Power & Light serves the City of Fort Myers. Lee County Electric Cooperative (LCEC) serves nearby areas such as North Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres and Pine Island. Your bill shows which one you have.

Hurricane Ian hit Lee County in September 2022. FPL restoration in Lee County took more than a week for many customers, and badly damaged buildings waited longer.

Homes that lost power for days often add a generator next. Read about generator installation in Fort Myers and the transfer switch it needs.

Storm checklist

  • Install a transfer switch or interlock before you need a generator.
  • Never plug a generator into a wall outlet.
  • After flooding, keep the main breaker off until an electrician inspects the panel.
  • Have the meter base checked if wind pulled on the service drop.
  • Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30.

Older homes

Older Fort Myers homes: cloth wiring and small panels

Fort Myers has neighborhoods near downtown with houses from the early and middle 1900s. Some still carry original cloth-insulated wiring, which gets brittle with age and heat.

Older homes also tend to have small electrical services. Adding central AC, an EV charger or a pool pump can push them past capacity.

An electrician can trace old circuits and recommend cloth wiring replacement or an electrical panel upgrade.

Warning signs in older homes

  • Two-prong outlets with no ground
  • Fuses or a panel with no spare spaces
  • Insulation that cracks or flakes when touched
  • Breakers that trip when the AC starts

Cost factors

What sets the cost of electrical work in Fort Myers

The electrician sets the price and writes it down for you. We do not quote or collect payment.

These points change most Fort Myers quotes:

  • UrgencyNight, weekend and post-storm calls usually cost more.
  • Permit officeCity and Lee County fees and inspection steps differ.
  • Attic heatWork in summer attics takes longer and needs breaks.
  • Utility stepsService upgrades need FPL or LCEC to disconnect and reconnect.
