EV charging done right

A home charger sized for your car, your panel and your driving

Not every house can simply ‘plug in’ a Level 2 charger. Older 100A services, electric heat and existing high-draw appliances can push a panel past its limit — which is exactly why a proper load calculation matters.

We install Tesla Wall Connectors, J1772 and NACS chargers from brands like FLO, ChargePoint, Wallbox and Grizzl-E. When the panel is tight, we recommend load management devices or a panel upgrade so you charge safely and at full speed.

Every install is led by a Certified BC Master Electrician with permits pulled under our contractor licence and inspections coordinated for you.

FAQ

EV charger installation, answered

How much does a Level 2 install usually cost?+

Most straightforward installs land between $1,500 and $3,000 with permit and inspection. Long conduit runs, panel upgrades or load management devices add cost — but we quote everything fixed before we start.

Do I need a panel upgrade?+

Not always. We run a load calculation per the Canadian Electrical Code. If your panel is close to its limit, a load-management device often avoids a full upgrade — and we'll tell you which makes sense.

Can you install in a strata or laneway home?+

Yes. We work with strata corporations on shared infrastructure, load management and metering, and we wire laneway homes from rough-in to final trim.

How long does an install take?+

Most home installs are a single day. Panel upgrades or long underground runs may add one to two more days.
