Electrical We Plan in Shearwater Backyards

  • Lighting circuits. Power for path, wall, step and ceiling lights.

  • TV and fireplace walls. Power and mounting for a TV above the fireplace.

  • Kitchen circuits. Power for fridges, lights and appliances.

  • Hot tub hookups. Planned with the pad or build-up.

UF/IFAS advises planning your power needs for cooking and lighting early when designing an outdoor living space.

Planning an outdoor electrical project in Shearwater

Newer Shearwater lots are efficient, so the design has to fit the setbacks and the furniture. With neighbors close on both sides, a privacy wall or panels often belong in a Shearwater design. Newer homes rarely come with the outdoor circuits a full outdoor living space needs, so we plan new circuits with the design.

Every outdoor outlet is planned for wet locations, and switches are grouped so each area works on its own. Before we draw an outdoor electrical project in Shearwater, we check what the kitchen and hot tub need, where the TV and speakers go and how much room is left in the panel. We handle the electrical work with our licensed electrical partner, so it's planned and permitted with the rest of the build.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, LEDs use at least 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs and last about 25 times longer.

Approvals and Permits in Shearwater

Shearwater reviews additions for placement, materials and colors, so the package covers all three. HOA review usually covers the structure and the lighting style, not the wiring behind them. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

St. Johns County issues the building permit in Shearwater. Expect a clearance step first, an automatic notice to registered architectural review associations, and a recorded Notice of Commencement for most permitted projects.

Our Design-Build Process

  1. Design session with Amany. Your project starts at our Jacksonville design studio, where you sit down with founder Amany Youssef and watch your outdoor electrical project take shape live on screen in AutoCAD.

  2. Free AutoCAD design and a custom quote. You get to-scale 3D renderings and a fully itemized custom quote within 24 hours of your consultation, so you know exactly what you're getting.

  3. In-home design visit. Amany comes to your home for an in-person walkthrough, so we look at the project together where you're most comfortable, finalize the details and choose your colors and finishes.

  4. Engineering, HOA and permits handled. We get the necessary engineered documents for every permitted structure, prepare your HOA/ARB package and pull the St. Johns County permits.

  5. Build. We can start most projects within two to four weeks. Our crews follow a build process we've refined over many projects, and you get daily updates.

  6. The AY Advantage. You hold back the final 5% for seven days after completion, so we can take care of any touch-ups before you sign off.

Financing is available through Synchrony Bank, including 18 months of no-interest financing, and we have other financing options as well.

Every AY Luxury Designs project has a $10,000 minimum, and you get a fully itemized custom quote within 24 hours of your consultation.
