Florida requires electrical contractors to be licensed through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board. Before hiring, verify that your electrician holds the proper license for the work. The board issues several license types—most residential and commercial work falls under an Electrical Contractor (EC) or Registered Electrical Contractor (ER) license. You can search for an active license on the DBPR's public portal.

In Orlando, you will likely need a permit for electrical work. The City of Orlando's permitting office can tell you whether your project requires one. Check with the city or your contractor before work begins, as unpermitted work can create problems when selling or insuring your home.

When you call your contractor, ask whether they hold a current electrical license and what type, what permits will be needed for your project, and how they handle inspections. The Florida Building Code applies to all electrical installations, so expect your contractor to follow it and any local amendments.
