Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions homeowners ask most about home EV charger installation — pricing, permits, service area, scheduling, and equipment.
Services & Pricing
What services does Charge Station Pros offer?
We specialize strictly in residential electric vehicle (EV) charging station installation. That includes Level 2 home charger installations, installing chargers you already own, outdoor installations using appropriately rated equipment, and free in-home estimates with a licensed electrician.
How much does a home EV charger installation cost?
Most Level 2 residential charging equipment runs about $400–$800, and a typical standard installation including the charging station runs about $850–$1,800. Installations close to the electrical panel generally cost less, and longer wiring routes generally cost more. Budget equipment may cost less than $400, and premium or specialized equipment may exceed $800. Financing and Payment Options: Yes, we do offer financing as well as low monthly payments.
How does the distance from my electrical panel affect the price?
Preliminary installed estimates — including a basic charging station — depend on how far the charger will sit from your electrical panel: 0–10 feet, about $850–$1,100; 10–25 feet, about $1,100–$1,400; 25–50 feet, about $1,400–$1,600; 50–75 feet, about $1,600–$1,800; 75–100 feet, roughly $1,700–$1,800 for unusually straightforward work, with complicated jobs at that distance possibly running $1,800–$3,000 or more. Beyond 100 feet we recommend a custom estimate, and a project may exceed $3,000.
I already own a charger. Can you install it?
Yes — installing customer-supplied chargers is one of our services. As a preliminary range, installation-only work for straightforward jobs generally runs about $450–$1,400; more complex installation-only work can exceed that.
Are permits included in the installation price?
No — permits would be additional.
Are the prices you quote final?
All figures on this page are preliminary estimates. Final pricing is determined after an inspection of your home's electrical setup and installation requirements.
What can increase the price beyond the typical range?
Panel upgrades, trenching, detached garages, and complicated electrical work can substantially increase the price.
Are there tax credits or rebates for a home EV charger?
As of November 2026, the federal Section 30C charging-equipment tax credit is not available for new equipment placed in service after June 30, 2026. State and local utility programs change often, so it is worth checking the current offerings where you live.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes — payments can be split into up to four equal monthly payments. Ask about payment options when you schedule your free in-home estimate.
