Skip the gas station forever with professional home EV charger installation that lets you charge overnight while you sleep.
Hear from Our Customers
You bought an electric vehicle to save money and help the environment. But if you’re still relying on public charging stations, you’re missing out on the biggest benefits of EV ownership.
Home charging costs about one-third the price of public fast charging. With ComEd’s off-peak rates, you could be paying as little as 2 cents per kWh to charge overnight. That’s real money back in your pocket every month.
More importantly, you get convenience that can’t be measured in dollars. No more planning your day around charging stops. No more waiting in line at busy charging stations. Just plug in when you get home, and wake up to a fully charged vehicle ready for whatever your day brings.
We’ve been Bolingbrook’s trusted electrical contractor for over two decades. We’ve built our reputation solving the electrical problems that matter most to homeowners – flickering lights, power outages, panel upgrades, and emergency repairs.
EV charger installation is a natural extension of what we do best: adding new circuits and ensuring your electrical system can handle increased demand. We understand that your home’s electrical capacity is the foundation of safe, reliable EV charging.
When you work with us, you’re getting licensed, bonded, and insured professionals who know Bolingbrook’s electrical codes inside and out. We handle the permits, the inspections, and all the details that protect your investment.
We start with a comprehensive electrical assessment of your home. Our electrician examines your current panel capacity, measures the distance from your panel to your desired charging location, and determines if any upgrades are needed.
Most Bolingbrook homes need 200-amp service for Level 2 EV charging. If your home has 100-amp service or less, we’ll recommend an upgrade to ensure safe operation and leave room for future electrical needs.
Next, we handle all permit applications with the Village of Bolingbrook. We install the appropriate circuit breaker, run the wiring to your garage or parking area, and mount your charging station according to manufacturer specifications. After installation, we test everything thoroughly and schedule the required inspection to ensure code compliance.
The entire process typically takes 3-6 weeks from initial assessment to final inspection, depending on permit processing times and any necessary electrical upgrades.

Level 2 charging operates on 240 volts – the same power that runs your clothes dryer or electric water heater. This higher voltage delivers 6-12 kilowatts of power, compared to just 1.4 kilowatts from a standard 120-volt outlet.
In practical terms, Level 2 charging can fully charge most EVs in 4-8 hours overnight. A standard 120-volt outlet would take 20-40 hours for the same charge. For Bolingbrook residents with longer commutes to Chicago, this speed difference is crucial.
Level 2 chargers also integrate with smart home systems and utility time-of-use programs. You can schedule charging during ComEd’s off-peak hours (10 PM to 8 AM) when electricity costs just 2 cents per kWh in summer months. Many chargers include smartphone apps that let you monitor energy usage, track charging sessions, and even pause charging if your home’s electrical load gets too high.
The investment also pays dividends when it’s time to sell your home. With Illinois targeting 1 million EVs by 2030, having EV charging infrastructure already installed gives you a significant advantage in Bolingbrook’s competitive housing market.
