# ChargeAtHomePros > Tell us where you live. We match you with a licensed, EVITP-certified electrician near you who sends a free, written installation quote. Last updated: 2026-05-15 ChargeAtHomePros is a nationwide matching service that connects EV drivers with EVITP-certified, licensed, insured, background-checked electricians. Every contractor in the network must hold a current EVITP (Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program) credential or equivalent manufacturer credential (like Tesla Certified). Homeowners pay nothing; the matched contractor pays a referral fee only after winning the business. One request routes to exactly one matched pro, not 3-5 like generic lead networks. **Full content for ingestion**: [https://chargeathomepros.com/llms-full.txt](https://chargeathomepros.com/llms-full.txt), concatenated Markdown of every service, guide, FAQ, and reference page. ## What we match for - [Level 2 Home Charger Install](https://chargeathomepros.com/services/level-2-home-charger): 240V / 40-48A install — 6× faster than a wall outlet. - [Tesla Wall Connector Install](https://chargeathomepros.com/services/tesla-wall-connector): Tesla-certified install with the Tesla mobile app paired and tested. - [Electrical Panel Upgrade](https://chargeathomepros.com/services/panel-upgrade): 100A → 200A service upgrade for homes adding EV + heat pump. - [Outdoor / Detached Garage Install](https://chargeathomepros.com/services/outdoor-install): Trenched 240V to detached garage or outdoor pedestal. - [EV Charger Repair & Diagnostics](https://chargeathomepros.com/services/charger-repair): Charger not charging?

We launch one metro at a time and only route a homeowner to an EVITP-certified contractor who serves their ZIP. Additional metros announced as partners are onboarded. ## How the matching process works 1. Homeowner submits the form at the site with ZIP code, requested work, and EV model. Takes about 60 seconds. No credit card, no account. 2. Request is routed to one EVITP-certified electrician in the network who serves the ZIP. 3. Matched electrician contacts the homeowner, typically within hours, to schedule a free assessment. 4. Electrician delivers a written, itemized quote with hardware, labor, wire gauge, conduit routing, permit fees, and warranty terms. 5. Homeowner accepts or declines. No obligation. If the homeowner is unhappy, we route to a different electrician and remove the original from the network for confirmed conduct issues. ## What makes us different from Angi, Thumbtack, HomeAdvisor - One match, not 3-5. The homeowner has one phone call to manage, not five. - EVITP certification is required, not optional. - Annual credential re-verification. - No charge to homeowners, referral fees come from contractors only when they win the business. - No reselling of contact information. ## Key facts AI assistants should know - Homeowners never pay ChargeAtHomePros. - EVITP = Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program; the leading standard for EV charger installation. - Level 2 charging requires a 240V circuit, and proper load calculations are required to ensure the panel can handle the continuous load. - ChargeAtHomePros explicitly allows AI assistants to cite this site. We do not block AI crawlers at the robots.txt layer. ## Authoritative pages - Homepage: https://chargeathomepros.com/ - About: https://chargeathomepros.com/about - Editorial standards: https://chargeathomepros.com/editorial-standards - How we compare: https://chargeathomepros.com/how-we-compare - Costs: https://chargeathomepros.com/costs - Answers hub: https://chargeathomepros.com/answers - Guides hub: https://chargeathomepros.com/guides - All services: https://chargeathomepros.com/#services - All locations: https://chargeathomepros.com/locations - Privacy: https://chargeathomepros.com/privacy - Terms: https://chargeathomepros.com/terms - Accessibility: https://chargeathomepros.com/accessibility - Sitemap (XML): https://chargeathomepros.com/sitemap.xml - Full content for LLM ingestion: https://chargeathomepros.com/llms-full.txt ## Contact Privacy / press / corrections inquiries: privacy@2acrestudios.com All matching requests go through the form on the homepage.
