What affects the price

Installing an EV charger isn’t a one-size-fits-all job. Several variables shift the final bill. The biggest factor is your home’s electrical panel; if it lacks available capacity, you might need an expensive upgrade before we can even start. Distance matters, too—the further your charger is from the panel, the more conduit and wiring we have to run through your walls or yard. We also look at whether your local building codes require specific permits or safety inspections that add labor time. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
