The installation time for an EV charger can vary depending on the complexity of the job, but it typically takes between 2-4 hours. This includes setting up the charging station, running necessary wiring, and ensuring everything is working correctly. For more complex installations or if electrical panel upgrades are needed, it may take longer. We always strive to complete the job efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality. Learn more about our EV charger installation process.

We offer a range of EV chargers to suit different needs and vehicle types.

During our initial consultation, we’ll help you choose the most suitable option for your situation. Explore our EV charger options.

Whether you need to upgrade your electrical panel depends on your home’s current electrical capacity and the type of EV charger you’re installing. Many homes can accommodate a Level 2 charger without an upgrade, but if your panel is older or at capacity, an upgrade might be necessary. During our initial assessment, we’ll evaluate your electrical system and recommend any necessary upgrades to ensure safe and efficient charging. Rest assured, we’ll provide transparent advice and only suggest upgrades when they’re truly needed for optimal performance and safety.
