Reviews
What customers say
Customers describe the electricians as professional, personable and kind; one customer also calls Craig prompt and friendly. One customer says Craig returned to address a thermostat/Wi-Fi issue, and another credits an electrician's detective work with finding a defective bulb. A reviewer reports basement outlets installed without grounding and a later failed occupancy inspection, then says the company quoted a travel fee and minimum charge before another contractor made the repair.

Craig, from Schaeffer Electric, is professional yet personable. More importantly he returned to my home to fix a thermostat/wifi issue without complaint. I highly recommend Schaeffer Electric Co.

Porter was great! Efficient and kind when it came to fixing my fans, lights, wiring, etc. He was respectful and you can tell he enjoys the career he chose!
Brian Schaefer
I hired Schaeffer to run a new 220 outlet for an electric dryer. Craig (tech) did a great job! He was prompt, super friendly and answered all of my questions. He then proactively asked me if I needed a dryer cord. I thought the dryer came with one, but I was wrong. Craig anticipated this need which meant I got the right cord the first time and it was installed properly, saving me time and frustration.
Great experience! I recommend!

My dining room lights quit working. Schaeffer Electric couldn't see reason for failure. He took down the lights cleaned all components and wires. He hung fixture up. put lightbulbs in and all lights went out again. he did some more detective work and found to his amazement that it was a defective light bulb. He marked the light bulb and wrote a statement that the light bulb was defective. He said in his entire career as electrician this was the first time he had ever seen such a thing. Thanks to his diligence, the light bulb company refunded me in full for the electric repair. Been using Schaeffer Electric ever since.

I hired Schaefer back in 2021 to install some outlets in my basement computer room. They installed 3 prong outlets.. which should have been grounded. Now come 2024, I’m trying to sell my house and fail occupancy inspection by STL county because these were never grounded. When calling Schaefer about this, they tell me it’s $100 fee just for travel and a minimum of $125- so at LEAST $225 for a mistake that they made. I hired another company to repair because I didn’t want to run into the same issue and they couldn’t believe that Schaefer never checked this upon install.. Schaefer completely dropped the ball on this forgetting to check proper grounding. I will never use this company again…
