Auto repair shop electrical FAQs.
Common questions from shop owners about costs, timelines, and electrical service options.
01How much does it cost to wire a new vehicle lift?
Vehicle lift electrical installation typically ranges from $1,500-$4,500 depending on lift type, distance from the panel, and existing infrastructure. This includes dedicated circuit, disconnect, conduit, wiring, and final connection. We ensure proper sizing for your specific lift's motor requirements and include all permitting and inspection.
02Can you upgrade our shop's electrical panel?
Yes. Panel upgrades for auto repair shops typically range from $3,000-$12,000 depending on the service size needed. Many shops are running on 200A panels that were adequate 20 years ago but can't handle modern lifts, compressors, and diagnostic equipment. We'll assess your current and future needs and design a panel that supports growth.
03Do you install LED shop lighting?
Absolutely. LED shop lighting is one of our most popular services for auto repair facilities. High-CRI LED fixtures improve visibility for precision work, reduce energy costs by 50-70%, and virtually eliminate bulb replacement maintenance. Most shop lighting upgrades pay for themselves within 12-18 months.
04Can you help us prepare for EV service work?
Yes. We're helping auto repair shops across Southern California prepare for the EV transition. This includes properly sized electrical service, dedicated circuits for EV diagnostic equipment, Level 2 charging for customer vehicles, and battery service infrastructure. We design systems that are future-ready without over-building.
05Will electrical work shut down our shop?
We minimize downtime by scheduling most work during your off-hours, evenings, early mornings, and weekends. For panel upgrades that require a temporary shutdown, we coordinate with you to schedule during your slowest period and complete the work as quickly as possible.
06Do you handle the permits and inspections?
Yes. We manage the complete permit and inspection process for all auto repair shop electrical work. This includes electrical permits, plan review when required, scheduling inspections, and handling any corrections. You receive inspection-ready installations with complete documentation.
