A charger in your garage. You wake up to a full battery.

What you get
A circuit built for your car
Charging pulls hard for hours. I run a new line from your panel sized for that.
The charger mounted right
Level, solid, and on the wall where you want it.
The permit and inspection handled
I file it, pay the fee, and coordinate the inspection, so you don't have to.

What it costs
Most EV charger installs land between $1,600 and $4,900. That covers the whole job. Load calculation, permit, breaker, conduit, wire, mounting, termination, testing and the inspection.
Three things decide pricing:
- How far the charger sits from your panel. This is the big one. Wire and conduit price by the foot. Fifteen feet across a garage and sixty feet to a detached one are different jobs.
- Whether the run goes outside. Trenching, weatherproof fittings and sealing every hole add work an inside run skips.
- What your panel needs. A free double slot with capacity to spare means a breaker and nothing more. A full or undersized panel is a separate job.
I quote in person, not over the phone or from a photo. I come out, run the load calculation, and hand you a flat price. The visit is free and you owe nothing at the end.
What is actually involved
Most of an EV charger install is not the charger. Here is the work behind the price.
Load calculation
I add up what your house already draws. Range, dryer, air conditioner, everything. A charger pulls hard for hours, so this comes first.
Checking the panel
Two questions. Is there room for a double breaker, and does the panel have the capacity to back it up.
The permit
I file it, pay the fee, and coordinate the inspection. Your city sets the process and it varies.
The circuit
Conduit and wire sized for a load that runs for hours. Holes through walls and floors get drilled clean and sealed. A run that goes outside or underground gets rated for it.
The breaker
Sized to the circuit and the charger. Landed and torqued to the maker’s spec. I update your panel schedule so the next person can read it.
Protection
Some installs need GFCI protection and some do not. It depends on how the charger connects. I confirm what yours needs before I quote it.
The charger
Tesla certifies me to install Wall Connectors. I install every other brand too. Bought one already? I install it. Want me to supply it? I can do that too.
Mounting and termination
Level, solid, and at a height where the cord reaches your car’s port and stays off the floor. Connections torqued to spec, not by feel.
Setup and testing
I set the charger to the right amperage for its circuit. Get it wrong and it either trips the breaker or overloads the wire. Then it goes on your wi-fi, and I charge a car with it before I leave.
Plug-in or hardwired?
Both work. They are just different.
Plug-in means a heavy-duty 240-volt outlet, the same kind an electric range uses. Your charger plugs into it, and you can take the charger with you if you move.
Hardwired means the charger joins the wiring directly. Many chargers run faster this way, and there is one less part to fail in a garage that bakes in summer and freezes in winter.
Tell me your car and I will tell you which one fits.
Common questions
Which charger should I buy?
Tell me what you drive and I will tell you what works. I check your panel when I come out. I can supply the charger or install one you already bought. I sell no brand, so I have no reason to push one.
Do I need to upgrade my panel first?
Sometimes. If your panel cannot carry the load, you hear it at the quote. I do panel upgrades too.
How far can the charger be from the panel?
Further than most people expect. A long run costs more in wire. It is not harder. I have run one to the far side of a house and it came out clean.
How long does it take?
Most take one visit. I allow enough time to finish instead of rushing to the next job.
Is a permit required?
That depends on your town. I check for your address before I start. Where one is needed I pull it and coordinate the inspection.
Why most people dread hiring an electrician
Everyone has a story about a contractor. Here's what usually goes wrong, and what I do instead.
They charge by the hour, so you never know the final price.
The price I quote is the price you pay.
They show up late (or not at all).
I show up on time (or $100 off).
They vanish when something fails.
The work is right, for life.
They sell you as much as they can, even if you don't need it.
I tell you what you don't need, in writing.
I take pride in doing it right, the first time.

“Could not recommend Adam more. He was on time, communicative and thorough, kept his workspace clean, and delivered exceptional work. He installed a Tesla charge port for me, and did an additional electical box in my garage as well…”

“Highly recommend. Adam installed a Tesla Wall Connector in my garage. My panel was on the opposite side of the house so not a particularly simple run. Regardless, the work was completed as described and looked great…”
