Our Services
Electrical Services for Hazel Dell's Mid-Century Ranch and Split-Level Homes
Hazel Dell grew up along Highway 99 in the decades after World War II. Many of the ranch homes and split-levels between NE 63rd Street and NE 99th Street were built from the 1950s through the 1970s. That means original wiring, two-prong outlets, and panels that were never designed for today's kitchens, home offices, and heat pumps.
We work in these homes every week. Some calls start with a flickering light or a warm switch plate near Hazel Dell Park. Others start with a home inspection report flagging aluminum branch wiring on a house near NE 78th Street. Either way, our licensed electricians find the root cause and explain your options in plain language.
Because Elevate NW Electric is based at 8100 NE St Johns Rd Suite D104, Vancouver, WA 98665, Hazel Dell is practically our backyard. Short drive times mean easier scheduling and less waiting around for you.
What We Do in Hazel Dell

From whole house rewiring to a single outlet repair, we handle the full range of residential electrical services. Every job is permitted where required and built to pass inspection the first time.
Below are the services Hazel Dell homeowners ask us about most. Each links to a page with more detail on how we approach the work.
Explore Electrical Repairs
Breaker Panel Replacement
Many local homes still run on original 100 amp panels, including brands with known safety concerns. We handle electrical panel replacement and 200 amp service upgrades, including meter base upgrades when needed.
Home EV Charger Installation
A Level 2 charger installation lets you charge overnight in your garage or carport. We check your panel capacity first, so the new circuit doesn't overload an older system.
Standby Generator Installation
Winter windstorms and ice can knock out power across Clark County for days. We install home standby generators with automatic transfer switch installation for hands-free backup power.
Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel Electrical
Updating a mid-century kitchen or bath usually means new dedicated circuits, GFCI outlet installation, and better lighting. We wire remodels and home additions to current code.
Aluminum Wiring Remediation and Surge Protection
Homes wired in the late 1960s and early 1970s may have aluminum branch circuits. We offer aluminum wiring remediation, AFCI breaker installation, and whole home surge protection.
Interior and Exterior Lighting Installation
Swap dated fixtures for recessed lighting installation, chandeliers, or ceiling fans. We also install security lighting and landscape lighting for Hazel Dell yards and driveways.
Smart Home Wiring and Specialty Circuits
Add smart switch installation, video doorbell wiring, or hot tub electrical installation. We also integrate home battery backup systems with your existing panel.
Old Wiring Replacement and Permits in Unincorporated Hazel Dell
Hazel Dell is unincorporated Clark County, so electrical permits and inspections here run through the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) rather than the City of Vancouver. We pull the right permits, schedule inspections, and make sure your project closes out properly. That paperwork matters when you sell, refinance, or file an insurance claim.
Housing age is the other big factor. Outdated wiring upgrades often reveal ungrounded circuits, overloaded shared circuits, or amateur additions from past owners. Our damp Pacific Northwest winters also take a toll on exterior outlets and service entrance cables, so we check those carefully too.
- Honest assessments first: we tell you what needs fixing now and what can wait, with no pressure.
- L&I permits handled for you: we manage filing and inspection scheduling from start to finish.
- Careful work in finished homes: we fish new wire through walls and attics to limit drywall damage.
- Grounding and GFCI updates: we bring bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and exterior outlets up to current safety standards.
- Moisture-aware exterior work: weatherproof covers and sealed connections hold up to months of rain.
- Clear written quotes: you see the scope and price before any work begins.

Elevate did my panel upgrade and I appreciated they were able to handle everything that PGE threw at them! I don’t think it could have been complicated more, but once it was done I’d highly recommend.
Linel Rogers I highly recommend Elevate NW Electric LLC. I had an issue with an outlet in our crawl space. They were quick to respond to my need. Found the issue. Recommended a better solution. All in a reasonable time. You can't go wrong with such willing and eager people to please their customers.
Barbara Garlisch We hired Elevate NW Electric multiple times to do several projects including fixing electrical wiring, installing a new exterior outlet, moving sconces and switches, and installing an exterior light fixture 20 feet up. Their work was professional, and they completed the work efficiently. Scheduling was easy and they responded quickly to questions. Pricing was transparent and fair.
Jesse Young Elevate NW Electric does a phenomenal job at a reasonable price. They updated our electrical panel, did wiring for new heat pumps/furnaces, installed an EV charger and installed an outlet for our induction/convection range. Since then I hire them for all my electrical needs, including adding outlets and repairing wiring that was nicked during remodeling. They're efficient and responsive. They're also kind when I mess stuff up before calling them. :D I always tell my friends they're favorite tradespeople.
Sarah Vincent Great team to work with. Professional, timely, and communicative.
Justin Smith Great company! They did all electrical for my ducted heat pump install and I also later used them to fix a tripped circuit and replace a few outlets. Caitlyn in office is amazing. Kind, friendly, efficient. She even had me try one thing in case I could fix the tripped circuit myself. Nice! The electrician let me know what I did wrong and educated me a bit which I super appreciate. They (good apprentice also) were efficient, wise and funny (always appreciate some personality!). Love this company. Use them!
Robin H Elevate NW Electric LLC is our go to Electrical contractor! We’ve used their service on several occasions and are extremely satisfied with their quality work and excellent , knowledgeable staff. Look no further ! From Zack to Gavin to Caitlin they are an outstanding team and we highly recommend them!!
R K We recently had Elevate NW Electric add lighting to our large vaulted master bedroom, which previously only had plug-in lamps for light. They installed four can lights on a dimmer switch, and it has made a world of difference—especially since the room also doubles as our office space. It’s brighter, much more functional, and we can easily adjust the lighting depending on how we’re using the room. The technicians who came out were genuinely nice, down to earth, and very respectful of our home. They worked carefully around everything in our bedroom and office space and did a great job cleaning up afterward, which we really appreciated. This wasn’t our first experience with Elevate NW. They also came out last August alongside our heating and air company to handle the electrical portion of that project, and we had a great experience then as well. We’re already planning a few more electrical upgrades in the near future and will definitely be reaching out to Elevate NW again. We would recommend them without hesitation.
Peter Tran Fast, good work, nice.
