Your quote vs. typical prices

Enter at least one price to compare.

Typical ranges come from published price sources (listed below), adjusted for local electrician wages. A price outside the range can be fair for your home. Ask the electrician what it includes.

Get matched with a licensed electrician

Free for homeowners. You choose: one independent, state-licensed electrician who serves your area, or up to three to compare quotes. Never a crowd of callers.

Level2Pro is a referral service. The electrician you hire is solely responsible for the work; we don't perform, supervise or guarantee it.

How the quote checker works

Each line is compared with the typical range we use in our EV charger installation cost calculator: $700–$1,200 for a NEMA 14-50 outlet and $1,100–$1,900 for a hardwired charger with the panel within about 25 feet, plus wire per extra foot, a permit of $25–$800, and panel work when the quote includes it. Labor-based items are adjusted for your area with the local electrician wage from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

A price counts as normal when it is within the range or close to its edges (15% either side), because published ranges are rounded and every home is different.

If a line is high

  • Ask for an itemized quote: labor, wire and conduit, breaker, permit and any patching.
  • Ask what makes your job different: a long or outdoor run, trenching to a detached garage, a full panel, or code fixes the inspector may require.
  • Get a second written quote for the same scope before you decide.

If a line is low

  • Check that the permit and inspection are included; a quote without them can cost more later.
  • Confirm the electrician's license on your state's official lookup.
  • Make sure the wire, breaker and outlet or charger connection match the charger's amperage.

The checker gives planning information, not a price guarantee or an opinion about any electrician. Only an electrician who sees your home can price the job. Panel work is explained in electrical panel upgrade cost.
