Florida Lighting Maintenance keeps commercial properties lit across Central and South Florida: retail centers, industrial facilities, office buildings, and warehouses. From a fleet of bucket trucks out of Sarasota, we handle lighting maintenance, LED retrofits, parking-lot and pole lighting, and full commercial electrical, with a 24/7 line for outages that can't wait.
We're a licensed Florida electrical contractor (EC13007548) and part of Service Solutions Unlimited. That national bench is how we keep multi-site retail and commercial portfolios lit on one schedule and one invoice.
