What to ask before you hire

About Bear Copper Electric

  • Ask who will do the work. Anyone they pay to work on your home must be covered by workers' comp.
  • Ask for a certificate of their liability insurance.
  • Ask for the workmanship warranty in writing: how many years, and what it covers.
  • Check each certification on the maker's or group's own website. Contractors must renew them.

Worth asking any EV charger installer

  • Is my panel big enough, or does it need an upgrade first?
  • Where will the wire run, and what does each extra foot cost?
  • Who pulls the permit, and who meets the inspector?
