Installed a Level 2 charger in my attached garage. The tech walked through the load calculation, pulled the permit, and the install was clean. From first call to inspection was just over a week.

First EV owner in our neighborhood. The installer answered every question I had about charging speeds, electricity costs, and scheduling. Patient and knowledgeable. Charger works perfectly.

My townhome's panel is in the basement. They ran conduit up through the floor and across the garage ceiling with clean, evenly spaced straps. Looks like it was always there.

Compared three bids. Twin Cities EV Services was the only one that included permit fees in the quote and offered a warranty on labor. Honest and transparent pricing from the start.
