What ChargeAtHomePros is
ChargeAtHomePros is a metro-by-metro matching service. We are not the contractor. We do not perform any installations, send our own crews, or mark up any quote. We are the layer that vets electricians, requires them to hold an active state electrical license and EVITP certification, and routes each driver's request to exactly one qualified pro who serves their ZIP. We launch one metro at a time so every match is a contractor we know personally , see the Locations page for the metros that are live now.
Why “one match, not five”
Most home-services marketplaces sell each lead to three to five contractors. The lead is a commodity to them. To the homeowner, it's a phone-call deluge for the next week. Worse, the contractors who win on those platforms tend to be the ones who answer the fastest, not the ones most qualified for the specific job. For EV charger installations, that's the opposite of what drivers need.
We send your request to exactly one EVITP-certified electrician who serves your area. One conversation. One assessment. One written quote. If that pro turns out to be wrong for you, we re-route, but we will not flood your phone.
What EVITP certification means and why we require it
EVITP (Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program) is the national standard credential for electricians installing EV chargers. It covers advanced load calculations, continuous-load thermal dynamics, and NEC Article 625 compliance that general electricians may lack. Most state rebates require an EVITP-certified installer.
A “handyman” who installs a 50-amp receptacle with cheap hardware and undersized wire is not a hypothetical. It is the typical thing that goes wrong when a homeowner picks the first contractor in a generic lead network. EV charging is a continuous load that places immense stress on a home's electrical panel. EVITP certification is the credentialing layer that filters out unqualified installers.
How we vet electricians
Every electrician in our network must, before we route a single lead to them:
- Hold an active EVITP certification or equivalent manufacturer training (e.g., Tesla Certified).
- Hold an active state electrical contractor's license required for the work in their state.
- Carry current general liability insurance, with proof furnished to us.
- Carry workers' compensation coverage where they have employees.
- Pass a background check covering the principal and the field staff who would enter homes.
- Agree in writing to not resell, share, or market against any contact information we route to them.
We re-verify EVITP status and insurance annually. We remove contractors from the network permanently for confirmed conduct issues, failure to honor a quoted price, failure to pull a permit, missed appointments without notice, or any breach of the contact-handling agreement.
What we promise homeowners
- You never pay us. The matched electrician pays a referral fee only after they win your business.
- One match per request. Your details go to one contractor, not three, not five.
- Written, itemized quotes. No phone-call ballpark estimates. The matched pro provides a real quote with hardware, labor, permit fees, and warranty terms.
- No reselling of your data. We do not sell to data brokers, broadcast to multiple contractors, or add you to marketing lists.
- No obligation. If you do not like the quote, you walk away. Free.
How we make money
Electricians pay ChargeAtHomePros a referral fee, a percentage of the contracted project value, only after they win the homeowner's business. They do not pay per-lead. That alignment matters: we make money when drivers are matched with an electrician they actually hire. We do not make money by selling the same lead five times.
What we will not do
- We will not list prices on the site. Real prices come from a real electrician who has assessed your panel.
- We will not run a contractor “directory” that anyone can pay to be in. Network membership requires EVITP certification and the vetting above.
- We will not pretend to be the contractor. The electrician is the contractor. We are the layer that gets you to the right one.
- We will not lock you into anything. If the match is wrong, tell us and we route to a different pro.
Where we operate
Coverage is determined by ZIP. Our denser contractor coverage today is in California, Texas, Florida, New York, Washington, Illinois, Colorado, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Arizona. If you submit a request from outside our active coverage area, we will tell you up front rather than burn your time.
