Electrician in Kendall, FL
Kendall's sprawling suburban neighborhoods — from West Kendall to Pinecrest-adjacent communities — are home to thousands of families who trust Legacy Electrical Contractors for panel upgrades, generator installations, EV chargers, and everything in between.
Electrical Services in Kendall, FL
Kendall encompasses a wide range of housing stock — from 1970s ranch homes in the eastern neighborhoods to newer construction in West Kendall. Older homes often need panel upgrades and wiring updates, while newer homes frequently need additional circuits for home offices, EV chargers, and whole-home generators. We serve the full spectrum of Kendall's electrical needs.
Kendall is an unincorporated community in Miami-Dade County, so electrical permits are issued by Miami-Dade County's Building Department. We handle the permit process, coordinate inspections, and ensure your project is properly closed out with a final certificate.
What We Do in Kendall
Electrical Services for Kendall Homes & Businesses
Generator Installation
Kendall's suburban location and mature tree canopy mean power outages are common during hurricane season. We install Generac standby generators that start automatically when FPL power fails, keeping your family comfortable through any storm.
Panel Upgrades
Many Kendall homes built in the 1970s and 1980s have 100-amp panels that can't handle today's electrical loads. We upgrade to 200-amp service with a new panel, meter base, and whole-home surge protection.
EV Charger Installation
Kendall's long commutes make home EV charging especially valuable. We install Level 2 chargers (240V) for all vehicle brands, typically in one day, with a permit and final inspection.
Home Addition & Renovation Wiring
Adding a room, finishing a garage, or renovating a kitchen? We handle all the electrical work for Kendall home additions and renovations — new circuits, outlets, lighting, and panel capacity assessment.

Common Questions
Electrician Kendall FAQ
My Kendall home has a Zinsco panel. Should I replace it?
Yes. Zinsco (and Sylvania/GTE-Sylvania) panels have a documented history of breaker failure. The breakers can overheat and fail to trip, creating a fire hazard. We recommend replacing any Zinsco panel and can provide a free estimate.
How long does a generator installation take in Kendall?
A typical Generac standby generator installation takes 1–2 days for the electrical work. The generator pad and gas line (handled by a plumber) are typically done the same day or the day before. We coordinate with the gas contractor and handle the permit and inspection.
Can you add a dedicated circuit for a home office in Kendall?
Yes. A dedicated 20-amp circuit for a home office is a straightforward project — typically a half-day job. We run the circuit from your panel, install the outlet(s), and ensure everything is properly labeled and permitted.
Do you serve all of Kendall, including West Kendall?
Yes. We serve all of Kendall — from the eastern neighborhoods near Dadeland to West Kendall communities like The Hammocks, Kendale Lakes, and Tamiami. Same pricing, same licensed team throughout.
What is the cost of an EV charger installation in Kendall?
A Level 2 EV charger installation in Kendall typically ranges from $500 to $1,200 depending on the distance from the panel to the garage, the charger brand, and permit fees. We provide free estimates and can often complete the installation in one day.
