Electrical Wiring Services in St. Louis
Whole-Home Rewiring Services Throughout St. Charles & St. Louis Counties
Your home's wiring is one of those things that works quietly in the background until it doesn't. For most homeowners, it never comes up unless something goes wrong. What's easy to forget is that the wiring in your walls was installed for the home as it existed at the time, not the home you live in today. Additions, renovations, upgraded appliances, and years of increased electrical demand all take a toll on a system that was never designed to account for them.
Potts Electric handles wiring installation and whole-home rewiring for homeowners throughout the St. Louis metro. Whether you're dealing with a specific problem circuit, planning a room addition, or considering a full rewire on an older property, our licensed team can deliver the services you need with the quality you deserve.
Is Your Home’s Wiring Safe? Common Signs It’s Time to Rewire
Electrical problems aren’t always obvious—until they become inconvenient or dangerous. If you live in an older home in Fenton or anywhere in the St. Louis area, outdated wiring may not be able to keep up with modern electrical demands from appliances, HVAC systems, EV chargers, and home offices. Potts Electric, LLC helps homeowners identify hidden hazards and complete wiring upgrades that improve safety, reliability, and peace of mind.
Warning signs you should schedule a wiring evaluation:
- Flickering or dimming lights when appliances turn on
- Warm outlets, switch plates, or a burning smell
- Frequent breaker trips or blown fuses
- Buzzing sounds from outlets, switches, or the panel
- Two-prong outlets, missing grounding, or no GFCI protection in kitchens/baths
- Overuse of extension cords because there aren’t enough outlets
- Aluminum wiring, knob-and-tube wiring, or other older wiring types
What to Expect When You Hire Potts Electric, LLC
We make rewiring and new wiring projects straightforward. After assessing your home’s electrical system, we’ll explain your options in clear terms and recommend improvements that align with your goals—whether that’s a safer panel setup, better circuit distribution, or preparing for future upgrades.
- Safety-first approach: We look for overloaded circuits, improper connections, and grounding issues.
- Code-conscious workmanship: We focus on proper protection where it matters most, such as AFCI/GFCI requirements and correct circuit sizing.
- Cleaner, less disruptive upgrades: We plan routes and access points to minimize drywall impact whenever possible.
- Future-ready planning: Add capacity for renovations, hot tubs, kitchen upgrades, or EV charging so you’re not rewiring twice.
Not sure if you need a full rewire? Many homes only need targeted circuit additions, outlet upgrades, or corrections to problem areas. Contact Potts Electric, LLC to schedule an evaluation and get a clear plan for your home in Fenton and surrounding St. Louis-area counties.

Common Questions About Wiring & Rewiring in St. Louis
How Do I Know if My Home Needs to Be Rewired?
Frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, burning smells, discolored outlets, and outlets that have stopped working are all warning signs of faulty wiring. Additionally, homes with knob-and-tube or aluminum branch wiring, or any home where significant DIY electrical work has been done, benefit from a professional evaluation regardless of visible symptoms.
Does Rewiring Require Opening up Walls?
In most cases, yes, though the extent varies based on the home's construction and the scope of the work. Our team takes care to minimize disruption and clean up thoroughly after every job.
How Long Does a Whole-Home Rewire Take?
Most whole-home rewires on a single-family residence take between three and seven days, depending on the home's size and the complexity of the existing system. We can provide a clear timeline before work begins.

Thank you for making us feel like a valued customer.“So happy we chose Potts. Had a good feeling when we met with Montel and were quoted a fair price for moving our service, plus installing a new electrical panel and adding a generator shut off switch. Also, at the time of our quote, we were made aware of a prior unsafe situation created by another electrician (which they fixed, leaving us with a nice, safe, and warm fuzzy feeling when we go to sleep now!) Our Installer, Sean, did a great job. He did the job quickly, and he did a great job (organizing the wires in the new panel and mounting the boxes and additional wires on our siding so nicely). Sean did a great job communicating with us along the way and was very diligent about the quality of his work. Also, we would be remiss if we did not mention that our family life is a little action-packed and hectic, especially with our autistic son around. Sean was so patient and unfazed by all the extra chaos! Thank you for making us feel like a valued customer.”Kelly B.
