★★★★★
“I purchased a couple of ceiling fans and was reluctant due to how old my house was with old wiring so I wanted someone professional and trustworthy. They have been both!”
★★★★★
“Prompt and professional - they helped run a new thermostat wire through a wall and crawl space.”
★★★★★
“I told him that the lights in my living room had been flickering for a while and asked if he could take a quick look. Instead of brushing it off, he immediately went to the main panel, asked a few questions, and then checked my subpanel in the garage.”

GOOD TO KNOW
EV Charger Installation in Lafayette: questions, answered.
Does an EV charger in Lafayette need a permit?
Yes. It needs an electrical permit from Contra Costa County, though it skips City zoning review. HAXX files it and meets the inspector.
Will adding a charger affect an MCE heat pump rebate?
It can. MCE excludes new EV charging within 12 months of a rebated heat pump install. Confirm current terms with MCE.
How fast will a Level 2 charger charge my car?
Most homes install a 40 to 60 amp circuit, which adds roughly 25 to 45 miles of range per hour depending on the car. Panel capacity sets the limit.
Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?
Often not. A load calculation and a right-sized circuit or load-management charger can avoid it.
