Every home's wiring tells a different story, and Greenacres Electrical Company is here to read it. Whether you are dealing with a tripped breaker at midnight, planning a panel upgrade for a growing household, or wiring a new EV charger in the garage, we handle residential and commercial electrical work across Greenacres and Palm Beach County to the same standard either way. The everyday repairs, the bigger installations, the jobs that have been on the list for months: we take them all.
Safe wiring. Solid workmanship. Straight answers.
We treat your home the way we would want ours treated, and that starts from the first call. Someone who knows the trade answers, scopes the job with you, and confirms the price before anything is scheduled.
Electrical problems don't wait, and neither do we, so we keep availability wide: open every day from 5:00 AM to 8:30 PM, including weekends, for everything from urgent faults to planned installs. Residential homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial clients all call us for the same reason: the work needs to be done right, and they need someone who can explain what is actually going on before the job starts.
Flickering lights, a breaker that keeps tripping, a dead outlet, a burning smell from a wall plate, a sparking outlet, or half the house suddenly losing power: each of these symptoms points somewhere specific, and a proper visit starts by finding out where. We trace the fault back to its source, whether that is a loose connection, an overloaded circuit, a failing breaker, or deteriorating wiring behind the wall. The visit covers a full assessment of what is causing the symptom, a clear explanation of what needs to happen, and a confirmed price before any work begins. One call gets the problem looked at properly.
Older panels running on 100-amp service were built for a different era of electrical demand. Air handling units, EV chargers, induction ranges, and home offices all pull load that older service entrances were never designed to carry. A panel upgrade, whether that means stepping up to a 200-amp service or replacing a worn breaker box, involves assessing the current load, sizing the new panel correctly, and making sure the service entrance and meter connections meet current code. We take pride in the electrical work we leave behind, and panel work is where that standard matters most.
GFCI outlet installation is required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas, and older homes in Greenacres frequently have standard outlets in those locations that have never been updated. AFCI protection on bedroom and living-area circuits is another common upgrade, particularly in homes that still carry the original wiring. Beyond safety upgrades, we add outlets to rooms that have too few, install dimmer switches, and run dedicated circuits for appliances that need their own breaker: refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves, and laundry equipment all benefit from a circuit that is not shared.
Recessed lighting installation transforms how a room feels without adding bulk, and it is one of the more common requests we handle in both new and older homes. Outdoor lighting installation covers everything from porch and soffit lights to landscape and security fixtures. Ceiling fan installation involves more than swapping a fixture: the junction box has to be rated for a fan's weight and movement, and the wiring has to be configured for the switch setup the customer wants. We handle the wiring and the mounting, not just the connection.
Whole-house rewiring comes up most often in homes built before the 1970s, where knob-and-tube wiring is still in place or aluminum branch-circuit wiring was used during the copper shortage years. Knob-and-tube replacement is not simply a matter of pulling old wire and running new: the work involves opening walls, updating junction boxes, and bringing the circuits up to current standards throughout. Aluminum wiring remediation follows a similar process, addressing the connection points where aluminum-to-device terminations create the highest risk. If you are buying an older home or have been told your wiring needs attention, this is the conversation to have before something forces it.
South Florida's combination of year-round heat load, a long storm season, and a housing stock that spans several decades creates a specific set of electrical priorities. The three services below come up more often here than almost anywhere else, and for good reason.
EV adoption across South Florida has moved faster than most areas of the country, and the electrical side of a home EV charger installation is where most of the real work happens. A Level 2 home EV charger requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit, a breaker sized to the charger's draw, and enough panel capacity to carry the added load without crowding existing circuits. We assess the panel first, confirm what is available, and run the circuit to wherever the charger will be mounted, whether that is inside the garage or at an exterior wall. The price and the scope are confirmed before any work starts.
Florida leads the country in lightning strikes, and Palm Beach County sits squarely in that zone. A single nearby strike can push a voltage spike through the service entrance and into every circuit in the house, damaging appliances, electronics, and HVAC equipment in seconds. A panel-mounted whole-home surge protection device intercepts that spike at the point where power enters the home, before it reaches individual circuits. It does not replace point-of-use surge strips, but it handles the events that strips alone cannot absorb. Installation involves mounting the device at the panel and connecting it to the service entrance, a job that takes a fraction of the time it would take to replace what a surge can destroy.
Hurricane season in South Florida is not a hypothetical. When a storm takes out grid power for days, a properly wired backup generator is what keeps the refrigerator running, the sump pump working, and the lights on. The electrical side of a generator hookup involves installing a transfer switch at the panel, running the connection to where the generator will be positioned, and making sure the switch isolates the home's circuits from the grid so backfeed cannot occur. We handle the wiring and the transfer switch. The generator itself is a separate purchase, but the hookup is what makes it safe and functional.
No matter what's going wrong with your wiring, the process starts the same way: a call, a conversation with someone who knows the trade, and a clear picture of what the job involves before anything is booked. We are available every day from 5:00 AM to 8:30 PM, and we take short-notice work, including urgent electrical faults that come up without warning. Prompt response, even for last-minute electrical calls, is part of how we operate.
When you call, you describe what you are seeing or what you need. We ask the questions that let us scope the job accurately, give you a price on the call, and confirm what the visit covers. Nothing is scheduled until the price is agreed. After the work is done, the same number you called to book is the number to call with any questions. Leave the breakers to us.
The hardest part of an electrical problem is knowing when to call, and a safety inspection takes that uncertainty off the table. We conduct electrical safety inspections for pre-purchase buyers who want to know what they are taking on, for homeowners in older properties who have not had the wiring assessed in years, and for anyone who has been through a significant storm and wants to confirm the system came through without damage.
The inspection covers the panel, the wiring visible throughout the home, grounding and bonding connections, outlet and switch conditions, and the presence or absence of GFCI and AFCI protection where it is required. At the end, you know what is in good shape, what needs attention, and what the priority order looks like. That gives you something concrete to work from, whether you are negotiating a purchase price or planning a repair schedule.
Pricing for electrical work depends on what the job actually involves, and the only way to give an accurate number is to understand the scope. When you call, we ask about the symptoms, the property type, and what you already know about the wiring. From there, we give you a rate on the call, before anything is scheduled, and we tell you what it covers.
There is no guesswork about what you are agreeing to. Panel upgrades, EV charger installation, generator hookups, rewiring projects: each one gets scoped and priced specifically, not estimated from a generic list. If the job turns out to be more involved once we are on site, that conversation happens before the additional work proceeds, not after.
Real answers. Real pricing. Real fast response.
Call us and we'll walk you through the fix.
We work throughout Greenacres and across the surrounding area, covering residential and commercial properties wherever the job is. Palm Beach County is a wide service area, and we take calls from all of it.
Communities we regularly serve include:
If you are in the area and need an electrical contractor, call and we will confirm availability for your location.
Palm Beach County's housing stock, climate, and common wiring practices all affect how we diagnose and scope a job. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s here frequently have aluminum branch wiring or undersized panels, and we know what to look for. That familiarity with what is common in this area means the diagnosis is more accurate from the start.
We work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, and business owners across Greenacres and the surrounding Palm Beach County communities. Residential repair calls, commercial panel upgrades, rental property inspections, and new installation projects all come through the same line. If the work involves electrical, we handle it.
We scope the job on the call based on what you describe. You get a price and an explanation of what it covers before anything is scheduled. If the job is more complex than a phone conversation can fully capture, we confirm the full scope on site before any work begins.
Call us at (561) 954-4953 and describe what you are seeing.
We take callbacks seriously and will work out what the next step should be. is to address the work thoroughly, and if a question comes up afterward, we handle it directly.
If a problem returns after we have worked on it, call us and explain what is happening. We will assess whether the original issue was fully resolved or whether something else is contributing. A recurring fault sometimes points to a deeper wiring condition that the initial visit did not surface, and we address that honestly.
A small job, like a single outlet replacement or a ceiling fan installation, is typically scoped and completed in one visit with a straightforward price. A larger job, like a panel upgrade or a whole-home rewire, involves more time on the call to scope it accurately, a load calculation or site assessment, and sometimes a follow-up visit. Both get the same level of attention to what is actually happening in the wiring.
Yes. We cover a broad area across Palm Beach County, including Lake Worth Beach, West Palm Beach, Wellington, Royal Palm Beach, Palm Springs, and Lantana. If your address is nearby and you are not sure whether we cover it, call and we will confirm.
