About this service
EV Charger Repair and Replacement
When charging equipment fails, root-cause diagnosis matters. We identify whether the issue is hardware, wiring, breaker behavior, or settings before recommending replacement.
Every project starts with a site walkthrough — we assess your panel capacity, confirm the best charger placement, and plan the wire run before any work begins. That upfront planning is what prevents the cut corners and rework that show up later as tripped breakers, undersized circuits, or a charger mounted where the cable barely reaches the car.
Charger selection matters as much as the installation itself. We match the charger level, amperage, and connector type to your vehicle, your daily mileage, and your panel's available capacity — not whatever happens to be in stock. A correctly sized circuit means faster overnight charging, no nuisance trips, and headroom for a second vehicle later.
Our installations are permitted, inspected, and fully documented. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection with your local Authority Having Jurisdiction, and hand you a copy of the completed work. That matters for insurance, resale, and any future warranty claim on the charger itself.
After installation we walk you through the charger app, load-management settings if applicable, and any utility rebate paperwork you qualify for. Most Twin Cities utilities offer incentives for Level 2 home charging equipment — we make sure you don't leave money on the table.
Available across the Twin Cities metro with scheduling based on permit timing, site access, and electrical scope complexity.

Frequently asked questions
Answers designed to move high-intent buyers toward the next step with confidence.
How long does ev charger repair and replacement usually take?
Most standard residential installs are completed in one on-site visit after planning and permit readiness are complete. Complex routing or electrical upgrades may require additional scheduling.
Do I need a permit for this type of EV charging work?
In most cases, yes. Dedicated EV charging circuits are typically permitted and inspected to verify code compliance and safe operation.
How do I know the pricing is accurate before work starts?
We provide a written scope tied to site-specific conditions such as panel capacity, circuit distance, and mounting requirements so the project is predictable before installation day.
What customers say about our EV Charger Repair and Replacement service
Real reviews from homeowners and businesses across the Twin Cities metro.
My charger had intermittent errors a previous electrician could not track down. Twin Cities EV Services used a clamp meter and found a loose lug causing voltage fluctuations. Fixed in under an hour, plus they secured a loose conduit clamp at no extra charge.
Old hardwired charger gave out after six years. They swapped it for a newer plug-in model, replaced the worn outlet, and updated the undersized ground conductor to current code. Two hours on-site with a clear explanation of what failed.
Bought a home with a charger wired incorrectly by the previous owner. Twin Cities EV Services brought it to code, pulled a retroactive permit, and documented everything for the home inspector who had flagged it. Peace of mind was worth every dollar.
