What We Install
Level 2 (H2): EV Chargers We Install
We install and service most Level 2 EV chargers and charging setups, including:
• Hardwired Level 2 chargers (the best long-term option)
• NEMA 14-50 outlet installs (when the charger is plug-in)
• Garage, driveway, and carport installs
• Single-family + multi-family solutions (site assessment recommended)
• Existing charger replacements & upgrades
• Wi-Fi enabled / smart chargers (help with setup + app pairing)
Mini note: If you already bought a charger, we’ll install it. If you haven’t, we can recommend models based on your car, daily miles, and electrical capacity.
Site Walk & Evaluation
Every installation starts with a real-world assessment of your home and charging needs. We don’t guess — we evaluate.
During the site walk, we review:
Charger location (garage, driveway, carport, outdoor wall)
Routing path from panel to charger
Attic, crawl, drywall, or surface conduit options
Trenching needs (if detached garage or exterior run)
Panel capacity and available breaker space
Service size and load considerations (HVAC, pool, shop, ADU, etc.)
Grounding and bonding verification
This ensures your installation is clean, safe, and sized correctly from the start.
Planning & Permitting
Once we understand the layout and electrical capacity, we create a clear installation plan.
This includes:
Final circuit sizing and conductor selection
Breaker type and protection coordination
Load calculation review (continuous load considerations)
Determining if a subpanel or load management solution is needed
Permit application and coordination (when required by your jurisdiction)
Our goal is simple: no surprises during installation or inspection.
Professional Installation
We install your EV charger with attention to detail and long-term reliability in mind.
Properly torqued terminations
Clean conduit runs and minimal wall impact
Weatherproofing for outdoor installs
Clearly labeled circuits
Functional testing and initial charge verification
Whether hardwired or receptacle-based, the system is built for daily use — not just a quick hookup.
Final Inspection & Training
Before we consider the job complete:
We coordinate final inspection (if permitted work)
Verify safe operation under load
Walk you through charger settings and app setup (if applicable)
Show you how to adjust charging amperage if needed
Answer questions about future expansion (second EV, panel upgrades, etc.)
You’ll leave knowing exactly how your system works — and that it’s built correctly.
Our Process
Installing an EV charger should be straightforward and done right the first time. We evaluate your home, design the proper electrical solution, complete a clean code-compliant installation, and make sure you’re fully confident using your new charging system.
Pricing Factors (without locking you in)
What Affects EV Charger Installation Cost?
EV charger installs vary because every home is different. The biggest cost drivers are:
• Distance from panel to charger location
• Panel capacity / need for a subpanel or upgrade
• Drywall/conduit complexity (attic/crawl access vs finished walls)
• Outdoor exposure (weatherproofing, burial, bollards if needed)
• Service size and load management (especially with pools, shops, ADUs, or multiple EVs)
• Permit requirements in your jurisdiction
Most installs fall into one of three buckets:
•Standard garage install (short run, existing capacity)
•Long run / complex routing
•Panel work required (subpanel or service upgrade)
Safe, Code-Compliant EV Charging
Common mistakes we fix
• Undersized wire for the charger’s actual output
• Incorrect breaker type or mismatched GFCI protection
• Loose terminations / overheating risk
• Unprotected outdoor installs and improper sealing
Can You Install A Charger Without Upgrading The Panel?
Sometimes, yes. If your panel is close to maxed out, we can evaluate options like:
• Lower-amperage charger settings (still plenty for most daily driving)
• Load management / power sharing (great for 2 EV households)
• Dedicated EV subpanel where appropriate
We’ll recommend the safest, most cost-effective path.
EV Charger Installation FAQs
Often yes—especially for new 240V circuits and hardwired chargers. We’ll tell you what applies for your city/county and can handle it for you.
Hardwired is typically the most reliable, cleanest install, and avoids plug/receptacle wear over time. A 14-50 can be fine if your charger is designed for plug-in use and the installation is done correctly.
Many standard installs are completed in a single visit. More complex routing or panel work can take longer.
Yes—outdoor installs just need proper weatherproofing, correct materials, and clean routing.
Absolutely.
