Bringing Modern Power to Your Vision
When you start a renovation, the electrical system is the one thing you can’t afford to get wrong. Whether you’re finally gutting an outdated kitchen or expanding your office space, you need an electrician for remodels who looks at more than just the blueprints.
At Pinellas County Electric, we specialize in the heavy lifting required to bring older Pinellas County properties into the modern era safely and efficiently.
An electrical remodel is the perfect time to address the “hidden” issues, like outdated wiring or panels that are already pushed to their limit. We don’t just pull wires; we help you design a system that handles today’s technology while leaving room for whatever you plan to plug in tomorrow.
Lighting & Design Automation
Lighting does more than just brighten a room; it defines the mood and usability of your home. During a remodel, we help you “flip the switch” on modern style and convenience. We specialize in replacing old fixtures with new, energy-efficient LED recessed lighting and surface-mount fixtures that modernize your ceiling line.
Beyond just aesthetics, we integrate lighting control and automation into your remodel. From advanced lighting controls to fully integrated home automation solutions, we ensure your home’s lighting is as intelligent as it is beautiful.
We also handle outdoor residential lighting, ensuring your new landscape or patio renovation is perfectly illuminated for Florida evenings.
Electrical Rewiring: Out With the Old
Older homes in Clearwater and St. Pete often hide a history of DIY patches and outdated materials. As your residential remodel electrician, we take the guesswork out of the process by identifying hazardous cloth and aluminum wiring. Remodeling is the ideal time for electrical rewiring because the walls are open, allowing us to:
- Replace old knob-and-tube or undersized circuits with modern, code-compliant wiring.
- Upgrade older three-wire dryer and range connections to safer four-wire systems.
- Ensure every new outlet in your kitchen or bath has the proper GFCI protection to meet current safety standards.
- Add code-mandated arc-fault protection to prevent electrical fires before they start.
The Heart of Your Remodel
Your electrical panel is the heart of your property’s power system. During a remodel, your energy needs usually increase, whether it’s for a new HVAC unit, a kitchen full of high-end appliances, or an EV car charger. We perform comprehensive electrical panel upgrades and service replacements to ensure your home can handle the load.
If your renovation involves a commercial build or multi-family property, we evaluate your distribution systems. We don’t just “overbuild”; we design solutions that allow for future expansion while protecting your current budget and safety.
Residential Remodel Electrician Services
Homeowners in Tampa Bay know that a “simple” remodel often reveals a history of DIY patches and old code violations. As your residential remodel electrician, we take the guesswork out of the process.
We work alongside your contractors to ensure every new outlet, switch, and fixture is placed exactly where you need it.
Commercial Build-Outs and Office Remodels
If you’re a business owner, you know that electrical work in a commercial space has a different set of rules. Higher loads, stricter fire codes, and the need for zero downtime mean you need a remodel electrician who understands the stakes.
From retail refreshes to warehouse lighting upgrades, we ensure your business remains compliant and powered for performance.
We coordinate our work to minimize disruption to your daily operations. If you need a phased plan to keep the doors open while we work, we’ve got you covered.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I call an electrician for my remodel?
The earlier, the better. You want an electrician for remodels involved during the design phase so we can check your service capacity and see if an electrical panel upgrade is needed before you start buying expensive appliances.
Do I need to re-wire my whole house during a renovation?
Not always. However, if we find outdated cloth or aluminum wiring, we strongly recommend remediation while the walls are open. It is much more cost-effective to handle electrical rewiring now than to cut into your brand-new drywall later.
Why does my new kitchen need dedicated circuits?
Modern high-power appliances like dishwashers and microwaves require their own dedicated circuits to operate safely. This prevents your breakers from tripping every time you try to use two appliances at once.
Can you help with lighting layout and design?
We specialize in lighting design and installation, ensuring your fixtures enhance your home’s aesthetic and efficiency.
