Customer Testimonials

Women shaking hands

Dominion made it so easy to get my EV charger installed. Having one point of contact was wonderful, as their concierge service did the hard work of coordinating the installer. All of the vendors were professional, timely, and did an excellent job. I would recommend this service to anyone thinking of getting an EV charger installed at their house.

We chose to use Dominion's Residential Charger Program because it provided a 'one-stop-shop' for sourcing both the labor and material through a single provider. Dominion's EV Concierge service ensured that we were able to select the EV Charger we wanted, and worked with the contractor to ensure the installation was in-line with our schedule. The opportunity to pay for the charger and installation through our monthly Dominion bill is convenient, and we would recommend this program to anyone considering an EV installation.

When I decided to get a Level 2 charger at my home, I decided to go through the Residential Charger Program that Dominion offers. Qmerit, Dominion's partner made the process easy. I took a few pictures and answered a few questions on my phone. Each step of the process was clearly communicated. They showed up on time, did a quality job, and arranged for the county inspector to come by later. When the inspector showed up, he simply said I love inspecting work this company has done...it's always a very neat, professional job. A few minutes later, he was done, and I've got Level 2 charging in my garage!
