Project ranges include labor and standard installation materials unless a listing says otherwise. Hourly rates are labor only, and equipment you supply (such as chargers, fixtures or fans) is not included. Permit fees and sales tax are additional. Estimates are free, including on-site visits.
Electrical work may require openings in walls or ceilings. Drywall patching, texture, and painting are not included and must be arranged with others.
What affects the scope and cost
- Battery model and manufacturer requirements
- Backup priorities and interconnection
- Existing service and space for equipment
A common question
Does battery installation also include solar panels?
No. Solar installation is not offered. The estimated range is for one 10–15 kWh battery system with standard controls and backup interconnection; larger systems and service changes need a separate scope.
