About ev car charger installation
A plug-in car charges fastest and cheapest at home, and a Level 2 charger on a dedicated 240-volt circuit adds roughly a few dozen miles of range per hour of charging, compared with a few miles per hour from a standard wall outlet. Most owners install one so the car is full every morning.
Every installation starts with the panel. A Level 2 charger commonly needs a 40 or 50 amp circuit, and that load has to fit within your home's electrical service. We calculate the available capacity first, and if the panel is full or too small we tell you plainly and price the upgrade as a separate option.
We install most common chargers, whether you have already bought one or want help choosing, and mount them in the garage, on an exterior wall or at a post near the driveway. Hardwired units and plug-in units on a dedicated outlet both work; which one is better depends on the charger and where it will live.

Frequently asked questions
How much does EV charger installation cost?
Installations typically start at $1,500 for a Level 2 charger. Cost depends mainly on the distance from your panel, whether the panel has capacity, and the charger you choose.
Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?
Sometimes. Older 100 amp panels in homes with electric heat, a spa or a pool often need help. We check your available capacity first and tell you plainly.
Can I use a regular outlet instead?
A standard 120-volt outlet works in a pinch, but it is slow. A 240-volt circuit is the usual choice for daily driving.
Do you install a charger I already bought?
Yes. We can install most common Level 2 chargers, or help you pick one that suits your car and your panel.
Are there rebates?
Utilities and some governments offer EV charger incentives that change from year to year. Check your electric utility and current tax rules, and keep your installation invoice.
Not ready to book? That is fine. Text a photo or ask a question and we will tell you what we would do, with no obligation.
