Sunset Hills is a community in the middle of reinventing itself, and Exceptional Electric has served it since 2004. From the neighborhoods along Watson Road to the newer custom homes rising throughout the city, our licensed master and journeyman electricians handle everything from a single circuit to the complete electrical system of a home being built from the ground up, and every job meets Missouri code the first time.
What sets Sunset Hills apart is how much of it is being renovated and rebuilt. Modest older homes are regularly taken down to the studs or replaced entirely with larger custom builds, and that kind of work asks for a different level of electrical expertise than a simple repair. Sizing a service for a home twice the size of the one before it, wiring a full renovation, and coordinating cleanly with a builder’s schedule are all part of what we do here. And because this corner of South County sees its share of severe Missouri weather, we also help homeowners make their systems more resilient against storms and outages.

Electrical Services We Provide in Sunset Hills
Whatever the electrical need, there’s a good chance we handle it. Our Sunset Hills customers call us most often for:
- New Construction & Remodel Electrical — Complete electrical for new builds and major renovations, from rough-in wiring to final fixtures, coordinated to keep your builder’s project on schedule.
- Whole-Home Rewiring — When a home is taken down to the studs, it’s the ideal moment to replace the entire electrical system. We rewire gut renovations completely and to modern code.
- Panel & Service Upgrades — A larger home needs a larger service. We size and install the panel a renovated or newly built Sunset Hills home actually requires, whether that’s 200 amps or more.
- Home Generator Installation — A standby generator keeps your home running through the storms and outages this area knows well.
- Whole-Home Surge Protection — Missouri storms are hard on electronics. A panel-mounted surge protector guards everything downstream.
- EV Charger Installation — Level 2 home charging installed cleanly, with a load calculation to confirm your service can carry it.
- Recessed Lighting & Fixtures — Recessed lighting layouts, fixture installation, LED upgrades, and ceiling fans installed and balanced right.
- Outlet & Circuit Installation — Grounded and GFCI outlets, dedicated circuits, and repairs for outlets that have quit.
- Breaker & Circuit Repair — A breaker that keeps tripping is telling you something. We find the cause instead of just resetting it.
- Electrical Safety Inspections — Buying, selling, or finishing a renovation? We’ll inspect the system and give you a clear, honest report.
We also handle commercial electrical work and tenant finish-outs for the offices, shops, and restaurants along the Watson Road corridor and near the I-270 and I-44 interchange.
Why Sunset Hills Homeowners Call Exceptional Electric
We handle whole projects, not just repairs. New construction and gut renovations need an electrician who can plan and wire an entire system, coordinate with a builder, and get the work inspected. That’s squarely what we do.
Two decades of West and South County experience. We’ve worked in Sunset Hills and its neighbors long enough to understand what larger, higher-end homes need, and we bring that judgment to every estimate.
Licensed, and it shows in the work. Every technician meets Missouri licensing standards, and our master and journeyman electricians take on the service upgrades, whole-home rewires, and code work that shouldn’t go to a handyman.
Upfront, per-item pricing. You approve the price before we start. No hourly meter running while you watch the clock.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer emergency electrical service in Sunset Hills?
Yes. Electrical emergencies don’t keep business hours, and neither do we. Call (636) 296-7789 and we’ll get a technician dispatched to your Sunset Hills home as quickly as possible.
Can you handle the electrical for a full renovation or a new build?
Yes, and it’s a large part of our Sunset Hills work. We handle complete electrical systems for gut renovations and new construction: designing the circuit layout, sizing and installing the service, running the rough-in wiring, setting fixtures, and coordinating with your builder so the electrical never becomes the thing holding up the project. When it’s done, we make sure it passes inspection.
We’re enlarging our home. Do we need a bigger electrical service?
Usually, yes. A home that’s being expanded or rebuilt larger draws more power than the original service was designed for, and undersizing the panel now means paying to upgrade it again later. We perform a load calculation based on the finished home and install a service with the right capacity and some room to grow.
How much does it cost to upgrade an electrical panel in Sunset Hills?
Cost depends on your current service, the amperage you’re moving to, and whether the meter and service entrance need work. We give you a firm, itemized quote before any work begins, so you’ll know the full price up front.
Are your electricians licensed?
Every job is performed or supervised by licensed electricians who meet Missouri’s standards, including master and journeyman electricians for panel, service, and code work.
Can you help with financing?
We do. Through our financing partner, you can spread the cost of larger projects over time. Ask us about it when you schedule.
