Lakeville Electrician – Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for electrical work in Lakeville?

Yes. The City of Lakeville typically requires permits for most electrical work, including panel upgrades, new circuits, and changes to existing wiring. Permits help ensure electrical work is inspected and meets Minnesota safety codes. A licensed electrical contractor like Schlemmer Electric can determine when a permit is required and handle the permitting process.

Are newer Lakeville homes still likely to need electrical upgrades?

Many homes in Lakeville are newer, but modern electrical demand has increased significantly. EV chargers, home offices, finished basements, and additional appliances can place greater load on electrical systems. Panel upgrades or new dedicated circuits are sometimes needed to safely support these upgrades.

Can you install EV chargers in Lakeville homes?

Yes. Many Lakeville homeowners are adding electric vehicle chargers. Installing a Level 2 charger often requires a dedicated circuit and may require evaluating your electrical panel capacity. Our electricians can inspect your system and safely install EV charging equipment for your home.

How quickly can you schedule electrical service in Lakeville?

We aim to schedule Lakeville service calls quickly, often within a few days depending on the type of project and current demand. For urgent electrical issues or safety concerns, contact us and we will work to provide the earliest available appointment.

Do you provide electrical services for Lakeville businesses?

Yes. We provide electrical services for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other commercial properties throughout Lakeville. Our commercial work includes lighting upgrades, troubleshooting electrical issues, panel service, and ongoing electrical maintenance.

Why do breakers trip or lights flicker in Lakeville homes?

Tripping breakers or flickering lights can be caused by overloaded circuits, aging breakers, loose connections, or electrical service issues. Cold Minnesota winters and seasonal electrical demand can sometimes make these issues more noticeable. Our electricians can diagnose the cause and recommend safe, code-compliant repairs.

Are your electricians licensed and insured for work in Lakeville?

Yes. Schlemmer Electric is fully licensed and insured to perform electrical work in Lakeville and throughout the Twin Cities metro area.

Do you handle electrical work following home inspections in Lakeville?

Yes. If a home inspection identifies electrical concerns—such as missing GFCIs, outdated panels, or wiring issues—we can correct those items and provide documentation of the completed work.

We serve all of Lakeville, including neighborhoods near Cedar Avenue, County Road 50, and areas surrounding Lakeville North and Lakeville South High School, as well as nearby south Twin Cities communities.

How much does it cost to hire an electrician in Lakeville?

The cost of hiring an electrician in Lakeville depends on the type of work being performed.

Honest review from a local. The owner responded very promptly, walked me through what to expect. A 2 man crew was here 3 days later (I had no rush for service). I was worried about going over initial hour cost and just wanted a good job done on my ceiling fan installation. The fan is perfect, and they did 3 other jobs in the time and had no thought of charging more. Book these people, they’re trusted.

We’ve used Schlemmer Electric for a few projects now. They have been consistently great each time. They are prompt, knowledgeable and pleasant to have in your home. They put a service panel in and have helped with several bath remodels. Shawn and Ben have been excellent to work with. They are professional and have an attention to detail. They were there when we needed them, even on a last minute call. I highly recommend them. They are our go to electricians!

Dan Schlemmer gets it done! Diagnosis was transparent, interaction was genial, and most importantly the work is solid. I'm glad I invested in this company as opposed to a big name with loud marketing, because it seemed like safety was the first priority. Added bonus: projected timeframe was 5-6 hrs. actual completion was under 4 hrs.

They were very professional, effective, and honest. They also answered my call promptly, whereas I did not receive answers from other electricians that I called.

I requested an electrician visit through Schlemmer Electric's website, not expecting a quick reply (my problem was not urgent). I was very pleased to get a call from Shawn the next day, and he and Ben were able to stop by that same day and diagnose my problem (bad drivers for LED strip lighting). They needed to order a part and promised they'd be out as soon as it came in, which they did. Problem fixed! Nice guys, quality work, reasonable price--I'll never call anyone else for electrical help in my home. Strong recommendation!
