Every project is different, but the main cost factors are the scope of work, materials and fixtures selected, the distance wire must run from the panel, accessibility (attic, crawlspace or finished walls) and whether a permit and inspection are required. We provide a firm written quote before work begins, so Franklin customers never see surprise charges.

“They installed our Tesla charger in a single morning. The pricing matched the quote exactly and they even helped set up the app.”
