Answers about assessments, pricing, permits, licensed trade partners, generators, security, funding, and what happens after the project.
A free estimate can work for a simple, well-defined job. The Home Safety, Power & Resilience Assessment is for homes where safety, aging-in-place, electrical readiness, generator planning, security, automation, and family decisions overlap. It creates a written roadmap before construction pricing is finalized.
The assessment can review bathrooms, entries, stairs, lighting, kitchens, panel readiness, generator readiness, outdoor lighting, smart locks, cameras, sensors, automation, critical loads, and family communication needs.
Most full Home Safety, Power & Resilience Assessments range from $750 to $1,500. Premium family decision reports can range from $1,500 to $2,500 depending on property complexity and family coordination needs.
Assessment credit may be available toward qualifying project work within the stated window. The exact credit should be confirmed before booking and documented in writing.
