Our standard
Wired to
the code.
Coastal wiring fails in ways inland wiring does not. Salt air corrodes meter cans and lug connections, summer lightning finds every service without proper grounding, and half the panels we open have been added onto by somebody who was never coming back. Every job gets the whole service looked at, not only the circuit you called about, work that meets or exceeds N.E.C. standards, and a price on paper before anything is opened.

Why the Treasure Coast calls us
Fully insured. State certified electrical contractor EC0002956. Serving St. Lucie, Indian River and Martin counties since 1951.
A contractor you only have to call once
- Third generation, same family
- Still run by the Applebee family out of Fort Pierce. Seventy-five years in these three counties means we have worked in most of these buildings before, sometimes twice.
- Residential, commercial, agricultural
- A house panel in the morning and a three-phase irrigation pump in the afternoon. Very few contractors on this coast do all three well.
- Answered 24 hours
- Sparking, burning smells, water in electrical equipment, a dead service after a storm. Those calls do not wait for business hours and neither do we.
- Free on new installations
- A written scope rather than a lump number, so you can see what is included and where the plan is asking for something the code will not allow.
- Bucket truck on the fleet
- Parking lot and pole lighting, security lighting and illuminated signs, which most residential electricians have to turn down.
- State certified, N.E.C. standard
- Fully insured and a state certified electrical contractor ec0002956. Work performed to meet or exceed N.E.C. standards, which is also what passes inspection here.

How service works
From your call to a working system
- 01
Diagnose
Service, grounding, panel and then the circuit itself, tested in order rather than guessing at the obvious part. Readings get written down so the next call starts with real history.
02Explain
You see what we found and the price beside it before anything is opened up. When a repair is close to a service upgrade, both numbers go on the same page.
- 03
Repair
Trucks carry what actually fails on this coast: breakers, contactors, motor starters, corroded lugs, outdoor disconnects, receptacles and pedestal parts.
04Verify
Circuits loaded and retested, labeling corrected, the work walked through inspection where inspection applies, and the space left cleaner than we found it.
Customer reviews
What people say after the truck leaves
Comments from homeowners, growers and business owners across the three counties we cover.
“Lightning took out half our service during an August storm and the house was partly dark. Applebee had someone here that night and the repair passed inspection the first time.”
“Two other contractors quoted me a whole new panel. Applebee found a loose neutral in a bedroom junction box, repaired it, and the flickering has been gone for two years.”
Miguel R. — Port St. Lucie, FL
“Our irrigation pump control failed at the worst possible week of the season. They understood the three-phase side of it immediately and had the grove watering again the same day.”
Bill T. — Fellsmere, FL
“We needed a new pedestal set before the home could be occupied. They handled the inspection end of it too, which nobody else I called was willing to do.”
Sandra L. — Vero Beach, FL
On the record
Somebody answers at 2 am. The truck carries what actually fails here. The price is on paper before the work starts. Seventy-five years of that.
Service area
The Treasure Coast, three counties deep
We work out of Fort Pierce with office lines in Vero Beach and Port St. Lucie, covering St. Lucie, Indian River and Martin counties from the barrier island to the groves west of town.
Core coverage: Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie, Vero Beach, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Sebastian and Fellsmere.
Fort Pierce, FL
Home base, and where three generations of this company learned the housing stock. Older block homes north and south of the downtown, plus grove and ranch work west of town, so we see both obsolete residential services and three-phase pump controls in the same week.
Port St. Lucie, FL
Mostly newer construction on wide subdivision lots, which means the calls skew toward added load: pool and spa circuits, generator inlets, lanai and landscape lighting, and panels that were sized for the house as built rather than as it is used now.
Vero Beach, FL
Our second office line. Barrier island and near-coast houses take the worst of the salt air, so meter cans, outdoor disconnects and lug connections corrode years ahead of schedule, and grounding and surge protection matter more here than anywhere else we work.
Stuart, FL
Martin County work runs commercial as often as residential: storefront and office build-outs, service upgrades on buildings added onto more than once, and parking lot and sign lighting that needs the bucket truck rather than a ladder.
Jensen Beach & Palm City, FL
A mix of waterfront homes and small commercial along the corridor. Docks, lifts and outdoor circuits in wet locations are common here, and those are the installations the code is strictest about and the ones we find done wrong most often.
Sebastian & Fellsmere, FL
The agricultural end of Indian River County. Groves, nurseries and ranches with irrigation pumps, well services, long direct-burial feeders and yard lighting on properties where the nearest pole is a good distance from the equipment.
Questions
Before you book
Anything not covered here, call (772) 466-7930 and ask. We would rather answer it on the phone than have you guess at it.
Do you offer emergency service?
Yes. We run 24-hour emergency service for burning smells, sparking, a dead or partly dead service, water in electrical equipment and storm damage.
Are your estimates free?
Estimates on new installations are free. Diagnosing a fault in an existing system is quoted before the work starts so you approve the price first.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We are fully insured and a state certified electrical contractor, license EC0002956, and our work meets or exceeds N.E.C. standards.
What areas do you cover?
St. Lucie, Indian River and Martin counties, with office lines in Fort Pierce, Vero Beach and Port St. Lucie.
Do you handle parking lot lighting and signs?
Yes. Our fleet includes a bucket truck, which is what lets us take on security lighting, parking lot and pole lighting, and illuminated signs.
Do you work on agricultural and commercial property as well as homes?
All three. Agricultural, commercial and residential work across the Treasure Coast has been our range since 1951.
