If you’re planning home renovations, don’t overlook your electrical system. Whether you’re tearing down walls, upgrading your lighting, or modernizing your home’s layout, hiring a professional electrician early in the process is essential for both safety and efficiency. Vetter’s Electric is you electrical expert, located in Forest Lake, MN serving the entire Twin Cities Metro.

Here’s why Vetter’s Electric should be part of your renovation team:


1. Install Additional Outlets Safely

Old homes often lack the number of outlets needed for today’s technology-heavy lifestyle. Planning to add more? A licensed electrician ensures outlets are grounded correctly, reducing the risk of electrical fires. GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets, especially in kitchens and bathrooms, provide added protection from electrical shocks and are required by modern building codes. Let a professional make sure everything is up to code and safely installed.


2. Upgrade Your Electrical Panel

Older electrical panels weren’t designed to handle the demands of modern appliances and technology. If your panel is 20–30 years old, or if you’re experiencing issues like:

  • Flickering lights

  • Frequent power outages

  • Burned-out appliances

  • Tripped breakers

…it might be time for an upgrade. Our electricians can assess your current system and recommend the right panel for your home’s needs—before it becomes a safety hazard.


3. Replace Outdated Light Fixtures

New lighting can completely transform a space. Renovations are the perfect time to replace outdated fixtures with stylish, energy-efficient LED lighting that matches your new design and lowers your electricity bills. Whether you’re looking for recessed lighting, chandeliers, or smart home integrations, we’ve got you covered.


4. Rewire Your Home for Safety and Performance

If your renovation involves tearing down walls or opening ceilings, it’s the ideal time to inspect your wiring. Homes with outdated or unsafe wiring can pose serious fire risks. Our electricians will evaluate the condition of your wiring and, if needed, re-wire your home to ensure it’s safe, efficient, and ready for modern use.
