Historic Homes Deserve Electrical Systems That Keep Up
University City is one of the St. Louis area's most architecturally distinctive communities. Tudor Revival and Colonial Revival homes, many designed by the celebrated firm Maritz & Young and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, line the tree-canopied streets south of Delmar Boulevard. North of Delmar, craftsman bungalows and smaller cottage-style homes have their own appeal. Across the city, the housing stock skews older, often significantly, and with that age comes electrical infrastructure that wasn't built to meet the demands of a modern household.
The Delmar Loop draws people to UCity for its restaurants, music venues, and walkable energy. But the homes behind those streets often tell a different story at the panel: circuits shared across too many rooms, wiring from eras when aluminum or knob-and-tube were standard materials, and panel capacity that was adequate in 1965 but strains under the load of today's appliances, EV chargers, and connected devices.
Potts Electric provides residential electrical services throughout University City and the surrounding area. We approach every job with upfront pricing, a 5-year parts and labor warranty, and the kind of honest communication that helps homeowners plan electrical upgrades thoughtfully rather than reactively.

Planning Upgrades for a Home with History
Many University City homeowners are stewards of homes that have stood for 80 or 100 years. The goal of electrical upgrades in homes like these isn't to strip out everything original; it's to make the systems behind the walls safe, code-compliant, and adequate for how the home is used today.
Our electricians work carefully in historic properties. We plan circuit routes to minimize disruption to original plaster and millwork, document what we find before opening anything, and discuss every step of the work before proceeding. When the job is done, the home looks as it did before we arrived, and the electrical system behind it is one you can rely on.
The team at Potts Electric was extremely helpful and understanding.“The team at Potts Electric was extremely helpful and understanding in their renovating the electrical work throughout our house. My wife has dementia and they scheduled us in such a way that didn't inconvenience her. The work that they then did was fast (done in a day) and extremely efficient. I am so satisfied with how everything turned out that I can only give them the highest recommendation possible. Once again I want to thank them for the job and being so understanding of my wife and our situation.”Timothy G.
