About Ray Porter Electric
Ray Porter started this owner-operated electrical contractor out of his own garage in Riverside more than a decade ago, after years handling service calls across Duval County. He still runs every job the same way today, focusing on older homes in San Marco, Avondale, and Springfield where knob-and-tube wiring and undersized panels are common. The humid subtropical climate brings heavy summer storms and salt air from the St. Johns River that corrode outdoor panels faster than in drier regions, so crews check grounding and weatherproofing on every visit.
Work stays local. Trucks cover Downtown Jacksonville, Mandarin, and Arlington daily, plus short drives to Orange Park, Atlantic Beach, and Neptune Beach. Ray keeps the schedule tight with set hours so homeowners know exactly when someone will arrive. Every estimate is given on site after looking at the actual panel and load, not over the phone.

- Owner Ray Porter is on site for every job in Duval County

Scheduling The Appointment
Call during business hours Monday through Friday 8am to 6pm or Saturday 9am to 2pm to book a visit for work in neighborhoods such as Riverside, San Marco or Arlington where older housing stock often requires updates to handle modern loads from air conditioning in the humid subtropical climate.
On-Site Assessment
The electrician arrives at your Duval County property and inspects panels, outlets and wiring while noting how proximity to the St. Johns River or exposure in areas like Downtown Jacksonville and Springfield can accelerate corrosion from moisture and salt air.
Completing The Repair Or Installation
Work proceeds with attention to local conditions such as high summer heat increasing demand on circuits in Mandarin or Avondale homes, using methods that account for the area's mild winters but frequent humidity that affects connections over time.
Final Review And Cleanup
After testing the system the electrician walks through the completed work with you and removes all debris, confirming everything meets the needs of properties near landmarks like the Cummer Museum or EverBank Field.

“The 220-volt outlet for my dryer stopped working right after I moved into the house near Fishweir Creek. The electrician traced it to a burned connection in the subpanel and replaced the wiring run plus installed a new outlet. The dryer now heats properly on the first cycle.”
“My front porch lights kept tripping the breaker every evening in the Southside area. He pulled new 12-gauge wire from the panel to the fixtures and added a dedicated 15-amp circuit. The lights stay on through the night without any trips.”
“During a recent storm the main breaker for my kitchen started buzzing and several outlets went dead. He replaced the damaged 20-amp breaker, tightened the neutral bar connections, and tested every outlet. Power is steady again with no buzzing.”
