Show homeowners a ballpark for panel upgrades, EV chargers and rewiring
Homeowners ask electricians about 200-amp panel upgrades, Level 2 EV chargers, and adding circuits for a heat pump or a finished basement. Most of them have no idea whether that's a small job or a big one. Instant Ballpark adds an estimator to your site that asks about the panel, the charger, distance from the panel and how many circuits or outlets, then shows a rough range from rules you set yourself.
Start building freeYour prices, your rules
You decide what the estimator shows. Start with a starting price range, then add questions and rules: fixed amounts, per-unit charges, percentage increases or decreases, or a set range for a specific answer. Nothing is guessed for you. For a panel upgrade, that might look like:
- A starting range for a panel upgrade
- First in the rule order: one set-range rule for each amperage option (for example, one for 100 amps and one for 200 amps)
- A per-unit charge for each new outlet or circuit
- A fixed add when the job needs a permit
Each rule checks one answer, and rules run in the order you set.
Example rules only. You set your own numbers.
Leads that show up with the details
Instead of a name, a phone number and "get back to me," you see the homeowner's answers and the range they were shown: what the job is (a panel upgrade, an EV charger, a few new outlets), the size of the job, and the details you'd otherwise have to ask first. You know what the job is before you reply.
Honest expectations, up front
The homeowner sees a range labeled 'Your ballpark estimate', not a final price. Existing wiring, service capacity, panel location and whatever the local permit process requires are things you confirm on site, so the final price follows your in-home review. What the range does is help an EV buyer or a homeowner with an old fuse box decide whether to call.
How it works
- Build your estimator. Add your questions and pricing rules. Building and previewing is free.
- Add it to your website. Use a hosted link, an inline embed, or a delayed popup.
- Get better-informed leads. Homeowners answer a few questions and see a ballpark range. You get their answers and the range they saw.

FAQ
Can I price a panel upgrade by amperage?
Yes. Ask the target size (for example 100 to 200 amps) and set a range for each answer.
How do I price an EV charger install?
A common setup is a set range for the charger install, plus a per-unit rule for each additional foot or a fixed add when the panel is far from the garage.
Can I count outlets, fixtures or circuits?
Yes. A per-unit rule adds your amount for each one the homeowner enters.
What about permits?
The estimator doesn't handle permits. If you want permit costs reflected, add them to your own rules; anything permit-related is confirmed during your in-home review.
Does the homeowner see my rules?
No. They answer the questions and see a ballpark range. You see their answers and the range with the lead.
