Customer Reviews

Trusted by BC Homeowners

Incredibly professional team. They assessed my 100A panel, recommended the DCC-12 EVEMS instead of a panel upgrade, and saved me over $3,000. My Tesla charges at full speed every night.

Michael T.
Vancouver, BC

From quote to installation in 4 days. The electrician was on time, explained every step, and the work was immaculate. Technical Safety BC inspection passed first try.

Sarah K.
Burnaby, BC

Had a detached garage situation that every other company said was complicated. EV Install Pro handled the trenching and sub-panel work without any issues.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does EV charger installation cost in Vancouver?

Most Metro Vancouver homeowners pay between $1,800 and $2,800 for a complete Level 2 installation including the charger, dedicated 240V circuit, Technical Safety BC permit, and inspection. Rebates can reduce this to under $900 net. Use our free calculator for a personalized estimate.

Do I need a permit to install an EV charger?

Yes - an Technical Safety BC permit is legally required for all Level 2 EV charger installations in BC. We file the permit before arriving and schedule the final inspection. The permit is included in every quote at no extra charge.

How long does installation take?

Most installations are completed in 3 to 5 hours in a single visit. We arrive with all materials and the permit already filed. By the end of the day, you are charging at home.

My home has a 100A panel. Can I still get a Level 2 charger?

Yes. A smart load management device called an EVEMS (or DCC-12) lets you charge at full Level 2 speed on a 100A panel without upgrading your service. It costs from $799 - a fraction of a $2,500 to $4,500 panel upgrade. We install both options and recommend the right one for your situation.

What rebates are available in Vancouver and Metro Vancouver?

BC homeowners can stack multiple programs: the federal EVAP rebate (up to $5,000), the BC Hydro EV Charger Rebate (up to $350), or the FortisBC EV Charger Rebate (up to $350 for eligible Fraser Valley and Interior customers). Combined with BC Hydro EV rate savings, the net cost can be well under $1,000. We handle all applications.

Which EV charger brands do you install?

We install all major brands including Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Grizzl-E, Wallbox Pulsar, JuiceBox, and Eaton. If you already own a CSA-certified Level 2 charger, we can install it. We also supply chargers at competitive prices if you need one.
