In Florida, electrical contractors must be licensed by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation's Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board. The most common license type for residential and commercial work is the Electrical Contractor (EC) license. A Registered Electrical Contractor (ER) can work only in the specific cities and counties for which they are registered. Before you hire, ask your electrician which license type they hold and verify it covers your jurisdiction.

You can verify a contractor's license by searching the DBPR online licensing portal at myfloridalicense.com. This free search lets you confirm the contractor is active and in good standing. The portal also allows you to file a complaint if needed.

Most residential electrical work in Florida requires a permit and inspection to meet the Florida Building Code. Your electrician should be familiar with permit requirements for your project. Discuss permits upfront so there are no surprises, and understand that code compliance protects your home's safety and future resale value.
