Keeping the Power Running In Chesterfield
Your electrical system’s what keeps everything running like it should. At the best of times, you might not even think about how your electrical system is running. But any faulty work or cut corners mean that electrical issues can and will crop up when you least expect them. And in and around those older neighborhoods (Shenandoah, Claymont, Green Trails, and along the Clarkson Road corridor), were wired for a very different era.
Chesterfield Service has been St. Louis and St. Charles Counties’ electrical company in Chesterfield of choice all the way since 1976. Our licensed and hard working electricians have been solving problems, inspecting homes, upgrading homes for the future and, above all, helping keep families safe all the while.
Our Electrical Services
Here’s what we offer our neighbors all over our service area.
- Electrical Repairs: Flickering lights, dead outlets, faulty wiring; our team does it all. They’ll troubleshoot and find a fix ASAP.
- Electrical installation: We install lighting, outlets, switches, EV chargers, ceiling fans, and energy-efficient upgrades perfect for modernizing your home.
- Electrical panel replacement & upgrades: Older panels wear out and can’t reliably power a home these days. Chesterfield Service’s electricians install and upgrade outdated and unsafe panels (Zinsco, Federal Pacific, etc.).
- Wiring replacement: Older wiring (aluminum branch, knob-and-tube wiring, etc.) is both inefficient and possibly dangerous. Chesterfield Service helps homeowners do partial and whole-home rewires when they’re ready to upgrade.
- Whole-home surge protection: Surge protection’s your best bet whenever the power goes out and a violent surge of electricity flashes back into your home. Your electronics and appliances can all fry in a fraction of a second. Surge protectors, installed at your panel, help keep your electronics safer.
- Emergency electrical service: Our electricians are available 24/7 for any electrical emergencies: sparking outlets, burning smells, power loss, and any other urgent hazards that can’t wait til Monday morning.
- And more!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my electrical panel needs upgrading?
There are a few signs: constantly tripping breakers, flickering/dimming lights, if your home’s 25 to 40+ years old, still has older (and very outdated) 100-amp panels, or can’t handle new, modern appliances. Upgrading to a more modern 200-amp panel is the best way to boost capacity and safety.
Are your electricians licensed?
Yes, our electricians are fully licensed, bonded and insured. Most importantly, they’re trained experts in handling everything electrical. That means rewiring, electrical panel work, inspections, repairs, upgrades, EV chargers, and much more. We do everything up to code and handle all the permits for each project.
Should I replace old aluminum wiring?
Yes. Older homes sometimes still have older electrical infrastructure; aluminum wiring was popular in the 1960s to mid-1970s, but it doesn’t pass safety codes these days. The team of electricians in Chesterfield, MO, will check out your wiring and let you know if you’re in need of a rewiring job.
