A residential electrical contractor focused on EV charging and panel capacity across northeast King and Snohomish counties.
Bothell EV Charging & Electrical was set up around a simple observation: homeowners adding an EV charger and homeowners replacing an aging electrical panel are usually dealing with the same underlying question, which is how much electrical capacity a home really has and how to use it well. Focusing on those two projects means our crews do them every week, with the same assessment-first process each time.
We work exclusively on residential electrical systems across Bothell and the surrounding communities: Kenmore, Woodinville, Mill Creek, Kirkland, Lynnwood and Mountlake Terrace. That local focus keeps us close to the details that matter here, from which utility serves a given address to how electrical permits flow through Washington State Department of Labor & Industries for King County and Snohomish County homes alike.
Every project starts with a load calculation, because the honest answer to "do I need a bigger panel?" is different on every street. Some homes we visit have plenty of spare capacity and just need a well-built circuit. Others are genuinely maxed out. Our recommendation follows the math, and we show homeowners the numbers behind it, including when the right answer is to do nothing yet.
Electrical work in Washington comes with a permit and inspection framework, and we treat it as part of the job rather than paperwork to dodge. Permits for the addresses we serve are obtained through Washington L&I, whose inspectors apply the 2023 National Electrical Code (WA L&I electrical permits). We operate as a licensed, bonded and insured electrical contractor serving Washington State, and Washington L&I's VerifySALI contractor lookup confirms it in seconds.
Someone picks up around the clock, day or night. Some of that is practical: charging questions come up in the evening when cars are actually plugged in, and panel concerns do not wait for Monday. Estimates are written and itemized, and if conditions change mid-project, you hear it from us first with the reasoning and the options.
