Need a panel upgrade, a rewire, a whole-home generator, an EV charger, or wildlife-friendly outdoor lighting? York Electric & Design handles it, does it to code, and gives you a straight answer up front, even out on the islands.
Captiva is one of the most exclusive and most remote corners of Southwest Florida. Homes here range from luxury estates to vacation rentals, many owned by people who aren't on the island yearround. That makes reliable power, whole-home surge protection, standby generators, and a clean safety inspection especially important, so a home stays protected whether anyone's there or not. Salt air is hard on outdoor systems, and a good part of the island is still rebuilding and rewiring after Hurricane Ian. We've done that work and we know what it takes out here.
As a barrier-island beach, Captiva is sea-turtle nesting habitat, so outdoor lighting near the shore has to meet marine-turtle lighting standards. We design and install compliant, wildlife-friendly lighting: shielded, downward-facing, warm-temperature fixtures that protect the beach and keep you on the right side of the rules.
Captiva is part of unincorporated Lee County, so permitting runs through Lee County rather than a city department like neighboring Sanibel. We know that process, pull the right paperwork, and explain what's happening in plain language. No upsells you don't need, no shortcuts that cause problems down the road.

From full home rewires after Hurricane Ian to generator installs that kept families powered through the aftermath, we've earned strong reviews across Southwest Florida for honest answers, clean work, and being willing to make the trip out to the islands when other contractors won't.
Yes. We cover Captiva and the surrounding island and Southwest Florida communities. We're used to making the trip out across Sanibel to get the job done.
Yes. Surge protection, a standby generator, and a pre-season safety inspection keep an island home protected even when it sits empty, and we can set all of it up.
Yes. We've done full home rewires and generator installs after Hurricane Ian and can safely assess and restore power after storm damage.
Most panel upgrades and replacements require a permit and inspection. Because Captiva is unincorporated, that runs through Lee County, and we handle it for you as part of the job.
