Renovation wiring, lighting, generators, dock power and panel upgrades for Boca Raton homeowners.
Electrical work planned around your renovation
Kitchen remodels, primary suite renovations and whole-home updates all depend on decisions made before the walls are closed: where the receptacles go, which appliances need dedicated circuits and how the lighting will be controlled.
Tole Electric works with Boca Raton homeowners, designers and renovation contractors on home electrical installations and repairs. We review the drawings, appliance specifications and existing system, then coordinate the electrical work with the rest of the project. Our rewiring services can cover the renovated area or a larger part of the home where its condition calls for it.
Backup power for hurricane season
A standby generator keeps selected circuits or the whole home running when utility power goes out. The electrical side of the installation includes the transfer switch, the wiring between the generator and the panel, and a review of the loads you want to keep powered.
Our generator installation work starts with the size of the home, the equipment you rely on and the capacity of your existing service. If the panel cannot support the planned connection, we will explain the options, including an electrical panel upgrade.

Docks, pools and outdoor living
Waterfront homes along the Intracoastal and the canals can need shore power for boats, wiring for boat lifts and lighting for docks. Pools, spas, outdoor kitchens and landscape lighting each come with their own wiring and protection requirements.
Tell us what you want to light or power outdoors and where the equipment will sit. We include the circuits, GFCI protection and controls in the estimate and coordinate the work with your pool, dock or landscape contractor.
Lighting, EV chargers and repairs
We install recessed lighting, decorative fixtures, ceiling fans and lighting control systems, checking fixture and dimmer compatibility before installation. For an EV charger, we review the charger specifications, garage layout and available capacity.
If a breaker keeps tripping or part of the home has lost power, our electrical repair service starts with identifying the affected circuits and what changed before the problem appeared.
Upgrading an established home
Many Boca Raton homes were built decades ago and have since gained larger A/C systems, pool equipment, new kitchens and more electronics. The electrical service and panel may not have kept pace with those changes, even if everything still seems to work.
Before a major renovation, we review the existing service, panel condition and connected loads. Depending on what we find, the project may call for additional circuits, a panel upgrade, whole-house surge protection or new GFCI and AFCI protection in the renovated areas. We explain the options so you can decide what belongs in the current project and what can wait.
What to send with your quote request
The more we know before the first visit, the more useful it will be. Helpful information includes renovation drawings, appliance and equipment specifications, a fixture list, photos of the existing panel and any inspection reports.
If you are not sure what you need yet, describe the project and how you use the space. We can start from there and work out the scope together.
Working in condos and managed communities
Many Boca Raton homes are in condominiums or communities with an association. Electrical work in a condo unit may need building management approval, scheduled access and attention to equipment shared with other units. Share any association requirements with your quote request so they can be included in the plan.
Founded in 1952, Tole Electric is a third-generation family business operating under Florida electrical contractor license EC 13002216. We offer free estimates and coordinate permits and inspections when required. For an office, shop or medical suite, see our Boca Raton commercial electrical services.
Questions about home electrical work in Boca Raton
What size generator does my home need?
It depends on the circuits you want to keep powered during an outage. We review your main loads and the existing service, then recommend the electrical connection and transfer equipment for the generator you select.
Can you install shore power at my dock?
Yes. We install shore power connections, boat lift wiring and dock lighting. Share the boat’s power requirements and the dock layout so we can scope the circuits and protection needed.
Can you work in a condo unit?
Yes. We coordinate with building management on access, approvals and any work that affects shared equipment. Let us know the association’s requirements when you request a quote.
When should I bring an electrician into a renovation?
Before the electrical layout is finalized and before walls and ceilings are closed. Share plans, appliance selections and lighting ideas early so the electrical work can be coordinated with the other trades.
Do you install whole-house surge protection?
Yes. We install surge protective devices at the main panel after checking the panel, grounding and available space. It is often a good addition during a panel upgrade or renovation.
