How much does it cost to install an EV charger in California?
A typical Level 2 home charger installation in California costs $1,200 to $2,500 after rebates. Costs vary based on panel capacity, charger brand, cable run length, and permit requirements. We provide free on-site assessments with detailed written quotes.
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel?
If your home has a 200A panel with available breaker slots, you likely do not need an upgrade. Older homes with 100A panels or full breaker boxes typically need a panel upgrade at $2,000 to $5,000 additional. We assess this during our free site visit.
How much in rebates can I get?
California homeowners can stack LADWP ($1,000) + SCE ($1,000) + federal IRA 30C (30%, max $1,000) for up to $3,000 in total incentives. Commercial projects can exceed $100,000. We calculate your exact savings during consultation.
How long does installation take?
Most residential Level 2 installations are completed in 4 to 8 hours. Panel upgrades take 1 day. Commercial projects vary based on scope. We provide timeline estimates with every quote.
Do you handle the rebate application?
Yes. LADWP, SCE, CALeVIP, and most utility rebate applications are included in our service at no extra charge. For federal tax credits, we provide all supporting documentation.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Leekin Electric holds a California CSLB C-10 Electrical Contractor License (application in process, number pending). We carry full general liability and workers compensation insurance.
What warranty do you offer?
5-year labor warranty on all installations. Charger hardware warranties vary by manufacturer (typically 3 years). We register all warranties on your behalf.
Is my HOA allowed to refuse my charger installation?
Under California Civil Code 4745, HOAs cannot unreasonably refuse a homeowner EV charger installation. We help you navigate HOA approval, prepare documentation, and ensure compliance with CC&Rs.
Do you work with Chinese-brand EVs (BYD, XPeng, NIO)?
Yes. We are experienced with BYD Atto 3, XPeng G6/G9/P7, NIO ET5/ET7, Li Auto L7/L8/L9, and Zeekr 001. We have the correct connectors (NACS or J1772 with adapter) and software knowledge.
