Split-level with the garage on the lower level. They ran the circuit through the rim joist and into the garage ceiling. Short path, no exposed interior conduit. Clean solution.

We rent part of our duplex and needed the EV charger metered to our unit only. They installed a sub-meter so we pay exactly for what we use. Fair for everyone involved.

The tech arrived, laid out all materials neatly, worked systematically, and left zero mess. My husband, a retired tradesman, said it was the cleanest electrical work he has seen.

Added a charger when we finished the garage conversion. They coordinated with our insulation contractor to ensure the wire was in place before the walls closed up. Good teamwork.
