Trusted Saint Louis Electrician | Schaeffer Electric Since 1935

Many historic and older homes in our area have aging wiring that can't handle modern electrical demands, posing a safety risk. Schaeffer Electric specializes in evaluating these systems. We perform thorough electrical inspections to identify worn knob-and-tube wiring, insufficient circuits, or faulty connections. Our licensed electricians can then recommend and perform necessary upgrades, such as panel replacements or rewiring, to ensure your home's electrical system is safe, reliable, and up to current code.

Upgrading your electrical panel is a critical service, especially for older homes or when adding major appliances like HVAC systems or EV chargers. Our process begins with an assessment of your current electrical load and future needs. Our licensed electricians then handle the entire installation, ensuring the new panel meets all local Saint Louis codes and safety standards. This service often includes a full safety inspection of your home's wiring to ensure the new panel functions correctly and safely for years to come.

Our family legacy, spanning three generations since 1935, is built on a commitment to quality and community. CEO Dan Schaeffer, who grew up in the business, actively leads the company and serves in a national role with the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA). This deep industry involvement ensures we adhere to the latest standards and best practices. We invest in continuous training for our team and stand behind our work, treating every Saint Louis home as if it were our own.
