For most homeowners: Tesla Wall Connector if you drive a Tesla, ChargePoint Home Flex or Wallbox Pulsar Plus if you don't. For renters or people who might move, a hardwired 14-50 outlet plus a portable charger is the flexible play. Tell us your car and your situation on the first call and we'll give you a straight recommendation — we don't sell hardware, so there's nothing for us to push.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. We start with a load calculation — your existing loads plus the new charger circuit. If your house has a 100-amp panel, gas heat, gas range, and no hot tub, we can usually get a 40A charger in without an upgrade. If it's a 100-amp panel with electric heat and a heat pump, we'll probably recommend the upgrade and tell you why on paper.

Typical range is $800 to $2,500 for the install itself, not counting the charger hardware. The price depends on the distance from the panel to the charger location, whether we're going through finished walls, whether the panel needs a new breaker or a panel upgrade, and whether you want hardwired or a 14-50 outlet.

Hardwired is cleaner, supports higher amperages (up to 48A for most chargers), and doesn't need a GFCI outlet that can nuisance-trip. A 14-50 outlet is more flexible if you might move or upgrade chargers later. Both are code-compliant — we'll ask about your setup and recommend the right one for your specific install.
