Majid was knowledgeable, courteous, and clearly takes pride in doing the job right. We were very impressed with how smoothly the entire process went.

  ~Level 2 Home EV Charging Station~ ----------------------------------------------------------- I had an outstanding experience with VanCan Electric. Majid was professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with from start to finish. He took the time to perform a thorough townhouse unit and electrical panel inspection, completed accurate load calculations, and handled all city permitting seamlessly. Majid completed the installation of my Level 2 ChargePoint Home Flex charger with a Blackbox EV Load Management Device inside my garage flawlessly. His communication was excellent, always on time, respectful of my home, and extremely detail-oriented. The pricing was fair and transparent with no surprises, and all work was completed safely, neatly, and fully tested. You can clearly see that he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about doing the job right, following all local and electrical codes and standards. Well done! I highly recommend Majid and VanCan Electric for Level 2 EV home charger installations and any other electrical work. Excellent service and top-quality workmanship!
