One crew. The right next step.

A new charger—or a charger that needs attention?

Install or upgrade home charging

A first EV, a different parking spot or a second vehicle can change what you need. Start with a free installation estimate before buying equipment or assuming the electrical service needs an upgrade.

  • New home charging circuits and equipment
  • Replacement chargers and changed parking layouts
  • Outdoor or detached-garage charging plans

Find out why charging stopped

Tell us whether the charger has no power, displays a fault or trips the circuit. We can assess the electrical supply and explain the next step. Charger hardware, vehicle issues, accounts and warranty work may also need the equipment manufacturer.

  • Electrical supply and circuit troubleshooting
  • Review of recurring faults or interrupted charging
  • Clear repair, replacement or specialist next steps

Let's make a plan.

Let’s plan your home charging.

Tell the crew about your vehicle and parking space. We’ll help you choose the right next step.

The details that make the difference.

The charger is one part of the plan.

Vehicle and equipment fit

Confirm the exact vehicle, connector and charger model. Hardwired and plug-in arrangements have different requirements; the selected equipment instructions and local rules guide the design.

A route that works at your home

Review the panel-to-parking route, electrical capacity and any outdoor or detached-building work. Shared parking may require property-owner or association approval.

Permits, installation and handoff

Our electrical installation scope includes applicable electrical permitting, inspection and testing. We explain the installed setup and identify any remaining app, account or vehicle steps.

Stop using equipment that is damaged, wet inside, smoking or repeatedly tripping. Do not open the charger or keep resetting a protective device to force charging. For smoke, fire or an immediate danger, move away and call 911.

No crossed wires.

From your first question to a clear plan.

  1. Tell us which visit you need

    Choose a free installation estimate or repair service. Share your address, vehicle, charger model if known and a short description of the project or problem.

  2. Review your setup with the crew

    For an installation, we assess capacity and the wiring route. For a repair, we investigate the agreed electrical scope and explain the findings.

  3. Approve the next step

    Review the equipment, work, cost and expected schedule before authorizing it. Any utility changes, added work or manufacturer involvement are explained as part of that plan.

Before we arrive.

A few details help us get started.

Have these details ready for your conversation with the crew. Keep electrical covers closed while gathering information.

  • Vehicle make and model, plus any charger you already own or are considering
  • Your normal parking spot and whether a second EV is planned
  • A photo of the closed electrical panel and the parking area, if safely accessible
  • Planned major electrical additions, such as a heat pump
  • For repair: the displayed message, when the issue began and whether charging ever worked normally

A quote that fits the work.

What shapes the installation price?

A nearby garage wall and a detached parking area can involve very different work. Your estimate separates the charger purchase from the electrical installation and identifies any additional scope.

  • Panel capacity and the proposed charging output
  • Wiring distance, access and any trenching or surface repair
  • Charger connection, mounting and outdoor equipment needs
  • Permits, approved load-management equipment and any utility/service changes

Choose an example from 0% to 35.9%.

Enter your assumptions, then calculate an example. The calculator needs JavaScript; project and financing information remain available below.

Choose hypothetical APR and term assumptions to compare costs. These selections are not a list of financing options available to you. A down payment entered here is an assumption, not a required deposit.

Financing depends on lender approval. Wisetack publishes amounts of $500–$65,000, APRs of 0%–35.9%, and terms of 3–120 months for home services. Your amount, APR and term depend on the transaction, creditworthiness, merchant and lending partner; state rate limits may apply. Some merchants and lenders do not offer 0% APR or extended terms. Wisetack reports no origination charges, late fees or early-payoff penalties. Review the lender’s actual payment schedule and agreement before accepting financing. This worksheet adds no financing fees and makes no approval decision. Wisetack’s current FAQs (opens in a new tab)

Calculation and rounding details

Monthly payments are rounded to cents. The total uses the unrounded payment formula; the final payment is adjusted so the displayed payments add up. Actual lender calculations and payment dates may differ.

This models equal monthly periods at a fixed APR without added financing fees. Compare the lender’s actual schedule before making a decision. Your entries stay in this calculator; it does not save them or send them with a service request.

Have a question about your home? Call the crew at (206) 276-9029.

Will I need a 200-amp service or a new panel?

Not automatically. We assess the existing system and the new charging load. The result may support the current service, a suitable lower-output or approved managed-charging design, or an upgrade. Empty breaker spaces alone do not establish capacity.

Can a charger go outside or in a detached garage?

Yes, when the location, equipment and circuit are suitable. Distance, weather exposure, cable reach and the route between buildings affect the plan. Tell us about shared parking or property restrictions before the installation is designed.

Do you repair every charger brand or handle warranty claims?

Share the make, model and symptoms so we can confirm the service scope. We can assess the electrical supply; internal charger repairs, proprietary parts, vehicle faults or warranty approval may require the manufacturer. A charging problem does not automatically mean the charger needs replacement.

Is the repair visit free like the installation estimate?

No. Installation estimates are free. Repair service has a $69 dispatch fee, waived for active members and credited toward completed work. Repair work is quoted separately, and we confirm your visit type when scheduling.
