Licensed Master Electrician in North Myrtle Beach, SC
Electrical repair, panel upgrades, EV charging, generator interlocks, lighting, inspections and coastal electrical solutions for homes and businesses throughout North Myrtle Beach.
Electrical Work Built Around the Needs of Coastal Properties
Loftis Lighting & Electrical provides residential and commercial electrical service from our North Myrtle Beach base. The work is overseen by Paul Loftis, a licensed South Carolina Master Electrician.
Electrical systems near the coast face conditions that inland properties may encounter less often. Outdoor equipment, service components, receptacles, lighting and other electrical hardware can be exposed to moisture, salt air and weather. When deterioration or electrical problems appear, identifying the actual cause is more important than simply replacing the first component that looks bad.
Our focus is trade service: diagnose the problem, explain the options and perform the electrical work appropriate for the property and project.

Smart Home Services →When the Electrical Problem Isn't Obvious
Electrical troubleshooting is one of the areas where experience matters most. A breaker that trips, a receptacle that loses power or a light that flickers can have more than one possible cause.
Instead of treating the symptom alone, troubleshooting should follow the circuit and available evidence to identify the source of the problem. Depending on the situation, that can involve the branch circuit, connections, devices, breakers, panel equipment or other accessible components.

North Myrtle Beach properties can expose electrical equipment to moisture, weather and salt-laden air, particularly around exterior equipment and waterfront environments.
