Remodel Electrical Services: EV Chargers, Lighting & Modern Upgrades
A great remodel deserves electrical work that’s planned, permitted, and built to last — not squeezed in as an afterthought. Origins Electric handles the electrical side of home updates and renovations across the western suburbs, from kitchen and basement remodels to the modern additions homeowners want most: EV chargers, heated floors, landscape lighting, hot tubs, and LED lighting throughout.
Modern Electrical Additions We Install
EV Charger Installation
Level 2 home EV chargers with the dedicated 240V circuit they require. We start with a load calculation to confirm your service can support it — and handle the panel or service upgrade if it can’t.
Heated Floors
Electric radiant floor heating for bathrooms, kitchens, and basements — dedicated circuits, thermostats, and code-compliant installation coordinated with your tile schedule.
Landscape & Exterior Lighting
Path lighting, uplighting, and security lighting that transform curb appeal and safety, with weatherproof circuits and smart controls.
Recessed & LED Lighting
Whole-room lighting design, recessed cans, under-cabinet lighting, dimmers, and LED conversions that modernize how your home looks and cut energy use.
Remodel Electrical, Start to Finish
Whether you’re opening up a kitchen in La Grange, finishing a basement in Brookfield, or adding a primary suite in Western Springs, we handle rough-in through final trim: new circuits, outlet and switch placement that matches how you’ll actually use the space, code-required AFCI/GFCI protection, and lighting that makes the finished room.
Not Sure What You Need?
Remodeling Electric
Can you work with my contractor?
Remodels run on schedules. We coordinate directly with your general contractor, show up when the schedule says rough-in, pass inspection the first time, and return for trim-out without holding up drywall or cabinets. If you're a GC looking for a reliable electrical sub in the western suburbs, let's talk.
How much does it cost to install an EV charger at home?
A Level 2 EV charger installation in the Chicago suburbs typically costs $800–$2,000+ including the dedicated 240V circuit, depending on the distance from your panel and whether your electrical service needs upgrading. Origins Electric provides a free assessment, including a load calculation, before quoting.
Can my electrical panel handle an EV charger, hot tub, or heated floors?
It depends on your service size and existing loads. We run a custom electrical load calculation before installing any major addition. If your panel has capacity, we'll use it; if not, we'll give you upfront options for a panel or service upgrade — no guesswork, no overloaded systems.
When should the electrician get involved in a remodel?
Early — ideally during design, before walls are opened. Early involvement lets us plan circuits, confirm your service capacity, place outlets and lighting where they belong, and price accurately. Electrical surprises found mid-remodel are the expensive kind.
