What moves the price.
Scope
Outlets, switches, and fixtures are the small end; panel upgrades, EV chargers, and whole-home rewires are the big end.
Panel capacity & age
Older 100–150 A panels (and recalled brands like Federal Pacific or Zinsco) often need replacement before the house can take modern loads.
Access & code items
Grounding/bonding updates, AFCI/GFCI requirements, and hard-to-reach runs add hours — permits and inspection are part of any panel job.
The Cape Coral factor.
Permits & code
Lee, Collier, and Charlotte County building departments issue the permits, and post-Ian rebuilding tightened inspections on roofing, windows, and flood-zone work across Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and Naples.
Climate & materials
Hurricane Ian (2022) reset this market: flood-zone elevation rules and 150+ mph design speeds apply along the coast, and insurers increasingly require wind-mitigation documentation.
The market
Rebuild demand still outpaces crew supply in patches of Lee County, which is why quotes here run roughly 10% above the national line — booking earlier in the week matters.
