EV Charging & Generators

we install Level 2 EV chargers compatible with all major electric vehicle brands, including Tesla, Ford, Rivian, and more. We can also assist with permits and panel capacity upgrades if needed.

We start with a quick assessment of your panel and wiring, then recommend the best charging solution for your vehicle. Once approved, we handle the installation, permitting, and testing — usually in just one day.
