We serve Miami-Dade County and surrounding areas. Call (305) 562-1262 with the property location so we can confirm service for your address.

Have the panel evaluated if breakers trip often, the cover feels unusually warm, you hear buzzing, you smell burning, the equipment looks damaged or corroded, or there are no spaces left for new circuits. If you notice a burning odor, smoke, arcing, or overheating, shut the power off if it is safe to do so and call for professional electrical help.

Yes. All Star Electrical Contractor installs and replaces electrical panels for residential and commercial properties in Miami-Dade County, including offices, retail, restaurants, and tenant improvements. Call (305) 562-1262 to discuss the property and the reason for the upgrade.

The time needed depends on the existing equipment, whether a subpanel or service upgrade is part of the work, and whether a permit applies in your municipality. A panel replacement typically requires a planned power outage for the work area. We confirm the plan and scheduling during the estimate.

Yes. Panel work is performed to applicable NEC and Florida building-code requirements. Permit and inspection needs vary by municipality in Miami-Dade County and are discussed during the estimate when they apply. Permit and inspection results are determined by the authority having jurisdiction.

Yes. A breaker that trips repeatedly is interrupting a fault or an overload. Common causes include too much load on the circuit, a failing breaker, a short, a ground fault, or a damaged appliance. We test the circuit and the connected equipment to find the cause before recommending a repair.

Yes. All Star Electrical Contractor diagnoses electrical faults for residential and commercial properties in Miami-Dade County, including offices, retail, restaurants, and tenant spaces. Call (305) 562-1262 with the property location and a description of the problem.

A dead outlet can be a tripped GFCI, a loose connection, a failed receptacle, an open neutral, or a problem farther back on the circuit. Partial power loss often points to one tripped breaker, a failed GFCI, an open connection, or a problem at a junction. We check the affected devices and the wiring path rather than replacing parts at random.

Call when a breaker keeps tripping, outlets or lights stop working, flicker persists, or you notice buzzing, heat, or a burning odor. Recurring faults and GFCI or AFCI devices that will not stay set should also be evaluated. Guessing at a replacement part without testing often leaves the real problem in place.

We can often install a charger you already purchased if it is suitable for a professional electrical installation at the property. We review the manufacturer’s electrical requirements, the mounting location, and the existing service. We do not claim compatibility with every charger brand or model, and we will say so before work is scheduled if the equipment is not a match for the site.

Not always. A dedicated EV charger is an added load. If the existing panel and service have capacity and an available space, a charger can often be installed without replacing the panel. If they do not, a panel replacement, a subpanel, or a service upgrade may be needed. We confirm that during the evaluation.

Yes. All Star Electrical Contractor installs EV charger electrical work for residential and commercial properties in Miami-Dade County. Common locations include a garage, carport, exterior parking stall, or a commercial parking area with a suitable wall or pedestal location.

The schedule depends on the charger location, the route from the panel, whether a panel or service change is needed, and whether a permit applies in your municipality. We confirm the plan during the site assessment and estimate. Permit and inspection results are determined by the local building department when they apply.

Yes. We install structured data cable runs to the rooms or workstations specified, including pathways, labeling, and termination where it is part of the scope. The cable category is selected from the specification for the project.

Often yes. Existing homes and commercial spaces can receive new cable runs through accessible walls, ceilings, or surface pathways. The route depends on construction type and access. We confirm what can be concealed and what may need a visible raceway during the site visit.

Yes. Remodels and new construction are easier when pathways, boxes, and cable types are planned before walls close. All Star Electrical Contractor installs structured cabling and related low-voltage pathways for residential and commercial construction projects in Miami-Dade County.

Yes. Camera cable and related pathways can be installed as part of a low-voltage scope, including preparation before cameras are purchased. We can also install specified cable and device locations for access-control hardware provided by others. We do not provide alarm monitoring, fire-alarm certification, or licensed alarm-company services.

Yes. All Star Electrical Contractor installs camera wiring and mounting for residential and commercial properties in Miami-Dade County, including offices, retail, restaurants, and similar commercial spaces. Call (305) 562-1262 with the property location and how many camera locations you are considering.

We install the wiring, mounting, power or PoE delivery, and connection to a recorder or network location. We do not provide monitoring contracts, cloud monitoring plans, police dispatch, or a guarantee that cameras will prevent crime. Phone apps or remote viewing, when used, are handled through the camera or recorder equipment and accounts you provide.

Placement depends on what you want in view: entries, driveways, parking, interiors, or work areas. We can advise on practical mounting height, cable route, and weather exposure. Camera placement does not prevent crime and is not a monitoring or dispatch service.

Yes. Cable routing is part of the installation, including preparation before cameras are purchased when that is the plan. It helps to know the camera type—PoE versus a separate power feed—before the pull, so the correct cable is used.
