Jefferson County is really two electrical worlds, and Terry Electric works both. On the metro side, the mid-century neighborhoods of Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, Applewood and Arvada are full of 1950s–70s homes running 100-amp services, aging panels, and the occasional run of aluminum branch wiring — prime territory for 200-amp upgrades, remediation and EV chargers. Up in the foothills, Evergreen, Genesee, Conifer, Ken Caryl and Morrison live at the end of long, exposed mountain lines and lean on private wells, so standby generators, whole-home surge protection and well-pump circuits are what keep those homes running through a storm. After 25+ years based in Lakewood, we pull the Jefferson County permit, do clean code-right work, and quote the real price upfront — wherever in the county you are.

Electrical questions Jeffco homeowners ask
What areas of Jefferson County does Terry Electric serve?
All of it. From our Lakewood home base we cover the whole county — Lakewood, Golden, Arvada, Wheat Ridge, Edgewater, Applewood and Littleton on the metro side, and the foothills communities of Evergreen, Genesee, Ken Caryl, Conifer and Morrison. Book online in 60 seconds or call (720) 340-6364 and we'll confirm scheduling for your address.
Do you handle both metro and mountain electrical work in Jeffco?
Yes — and they're genuinely different. The metro side (Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, Applewood, Arvada) is heavy on panel upgrades, aluminum-wiring remediation and EV chargers for mid-century homes. The foothills (Evergreen, Conifer, Genesee, Morrison) run on wells and exposed power lines, so standby generators, surge protection and well-pump circuits dominate. After 25+ years we do all of it, code-right.
Do you pull Jefferson County permits and meet the inspector?
Always. We pull the permit, do the work to current NEC code, and meet the Jefferson County (or municipal) inspector — that's built into how we quote every job. Passing inspection the first time is the standard, not the goal.
How much does a panel upgrade cost in Jefferson County?
Every job is quoted upfront depending on amperage (100 vs. 200 amp), the condition of the existing service, and permit requirements. Many of the county's 1950s–70s homes still run 100-amp panels — or Federal Pacific/Zinsco brands worth replacing on safety grounds. We quote the full job upfront before any work starts.
Why do foothills Jeffco homes need standby generators?
Foothills communities like Evergreen, Conifer, Genesee and Morrison sit at the end of long, exposed mountain lines, so they lose power more often and for longer than the metro flats — and many run private wells that stop when the power does. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps heat, well pumps and refrigeration running automatically. We size, install and permit the full system. Call (720) 340-6364.
