Three decades. One standard.

David F Smith Electrical Service has been wiring Northwest Florida since 1995. What started in Panama City has grown to two branches in Panama City and Tallahassee, with licensed crews in both, led by David Smith and supervisor Randel Ozuna.

The standard hasn't changed in 30 years. Dependable, fast service, done right the first time. Licensed in Florida (EC13008805) and Alabama (#06105), fully insured, and built on the kind of word of mouth reputation you only earn by showing up and doing the work properly.

I couldn't be more pleased with the electrical work DFS provided at my home. From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and highly skilled. They arrived on time, assessed the situation thoroughly, and explained all the necessary steps in detail. The work was completed quickly without compromising on quality, and they left the area clean and tidy. I especially appreciated their attention to safety and the care they took in ensuring everything was up to code.
