The site decides the plan, not a catalog
Panel capacity, fuel supply, transfer-switch placement, pad elevation relative to the flood zone, required clearances, utility sign-off, permitting, and startup testing all shape whether an installation holds up.
What a complete scope covers
- Current condition and probable cause
- Site preparation and protection during the work
- Materials, fit, and installation specifics
- Required permits, testing, cleanup, and disposal
- Written exclusions, warranty terms, and change-order pricing
Clearwater context
Clearwater's building stock spans 1920s land-boom bungalows near the old Fort Harrison waterfront, dense postwar concrete-block ranches built after Pinellas County split off from Hillsborough County in 1912, and beach-corridor condominium towers raised since the 1970s. Hurricanes Helene and Milton both crossed the Tampa Bay area within about six weeks of each other in September and October 2024, driving record surge into Pinellas County and cutting power to hundreds of thousands of Duke Energy Florida customers -- a reminder that flat terrain, high groundwater, and salt air make moisture and permit planning as important as the equipment itself.
