FAQ
Real questions we get, answered without the sales spin.
For panel upgrades, new circuits, service changes, and most major work — yes. We pull the permit, schedule inspection, and close it out. Unpermitted work is an insurance and resale nightmare.
Yes. Both brands have documented safety issues and many insurers won't cover homes with them. A 200A panel upgrade is $2,500–$4,500 typical and pays for itself in insurance peace of mind alone.
Yes — Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Grizzl-E, and all universal Level-2 chargers. We run a dedicated 40–80A circuit from your panel and handle the permit.
Usually loose panel connection, undersized service, or a weak neutral. Minor flicker is normal; persistent flicker is a fire risk. We diagnose with a clamp meter and panel scan.
Yes — partial or full rewires on 1950s-and-older homes. We work with your renovation schedule to minimize drywall damage.
