Backup power · Home EV chargers
An EV charger at home, wired right the first time.
A Level 2 charger on its own circuit, with your panel checked first and the permit pulled. Clark County and the Portland metro.
Anyone charging at home.
- New EV owners who want a full charge overnight.
- Two-EV households that need to share one circuit or add a second.
- Homes with a full or older panel, where the charger needs room first.
- Solar and battery owners who want the charger to work with the system.
Panel check to first charge.
- Panel and load check. We make sure your service can carry the charger before anything is installed.
- A dedicated circuit to the garage, driveway or carport, sized to the charger.
- Mounting and hookup of the charger you bought, or one we recommend.
- Panel upgrade, if needed, in the same written quote.
- Permit and inspection. We pull the electrical permit and book the inspection.
- First charge and a walkthrough before we leave.
A price you see up front.
Most of the cost is the run from your panel to the charger, and whether the panel needs work. The quote is written, line by line.
What people ask.
Level 1 or Level 2?
Level 1 plugs into a regular outlet and adds a few miles of range an hour. Level 2 runs on a 240-volt circuit and fills most cars overnight. Most owners want Level 2.
Do I need a panel upgrade?
Not always. We check your panel and your home's load first. If there's room, the charger goes on its own circuit. If not, we tell you the options, including load-sharing chargers that avoid an upgrade.
Can I buy my own charger?
Yes. We install the charger you bought, as long as it's a listed unit, or we'll recommend one.
Are there utility rebates?
Sometimes. We'll tell you what we know applies when we quote.
Do I need a permit?
Yes. We pull the electrical permit and book the inspection.
Do you do chargers for businesses?
Yes. See commercial EV charging.
After-sale support for your homebuyers.
We already wire new homes for builders. We can rough in generator inlets, battery-ready panels and EV-charger circuits during the build, and take the backup-power and service calls after closing.
Your buyers get a licensed electrician who knows the house. Your schedule stays yours: homeowner jobs never pull our new-construction crews off a builder's job.
