Cheihk is a very nice man. He talked me through a simple fix for a GFI that had been tripped and was not noticed by me. No service call and no charge. Thanks Cheihk!

Not recommend at all - I was calling and texting him few days, After he said he will install Charger at my home, He never called back, Never answer after the initial appointment. Don't waste your time on bad service, Go with someone who stand for his words and actions.

Ok service. Spoke to Cheikh for two weeks and he he gave a good price. Today, at the last moment he sent one of his workers today, which was fine and Cheikh assured that his worker knows what he was doing. His worker was quick and in the process did not end up a perfect job. But ended up with an acceptable Job. The dry wall (which was not touched before since the house was bought) came out near the wall socket (see attached picture) and rather than accepting the mistake (or a job that does not look perfect) Cheikh argued that anything can happen at work. Not acceptable from someone who Tesla recommends. The plate is not straight and is Bend. I need to get a drywall guy to fix it. Recommend to use Cheikh and wait if he is not free.

Cheikh was highly recommended by Tesla (website and in galleria). He provided an extremely competitive quote after a brief (~5 min) chat and few pictures to confirm setup in garage. Cheikh and his team were very professional and installed a NEMA 14-50 quickly with only a few days notice.

I would highly recommend him and Chams Electrical Services for any Tesla install or other electrical work that is needed around the house in Houston (and surrounding areas).

Found Cham's on here the other day for some residential electrical problems. They showed up early after making sure the adjustment worked for me before completed the work effectively while explaining the issue and showing me the root cause. Both electricians were complete professionals from start to finish.

I will be using them next time.

Cheikh showed up as the first recommended electrician service on Tesla website, and he is also very reputable on Tesla forum. It is no wonder why everyone wants to recommend him due to his superb service. His team is very punctual in appointment and really professional with their work. He added a new breaker for my panel to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet for my Tesla Model 3. The work took an hour (perhaps a little more for other houses as my house has an easy setting), was very clean, and everything was going exactly as what we had discussed with each other a few days before. You will usually have several choices for your electric socket(s): right below the breaker near the frunk, running an extension cord on the right side near the trunk (if you park on the right side), or running an extension cord on the left of the garage (if you park on the left side). The basic cost is usually $300 for a socket right below your breaker panel, and the extension cord is going to cost $100 extra for approximately every 15ft. Trust me, the 240V NEMA extension cord is really expensive, and it has to be at least 10 gauge and lower (heavy duty); otherwise, the cord is going to melt with that high voltage. This topic has been discussed a lot on the Tesla forum that many people want to extend the length of their charging cable to 50-100ft. You do not want to run regular 10 gauge that you can purchase from Home Depot to save $100; it is not worth the risk, and the long cable also reduce the efficiency of the Tesla charger. That's why Tesla strictly recommends to not using any extension cord for their charger. $100 for 15ft, including installation (with cover protection and secured bracket), is extremely worth to do.

Cheikh also installed an additional hook to organize the cord for my Gen 2 Mobile Connector, which really helps to relieve my worry about the 20-ft long electric cable lying around my garage. At the end of the day, you have an option to pay an extra $300 to get a city inspector to come to inspect his work and gives you the safety certificate. Many people got their certificate, and they said that it is not worth $300 for someone to do less work, look around for less than 20 minutes, and get pay the same rate with the electrician. Therefore, I did not use that option. However, Cheikh has a warranty of 5 years for his work, so I have no problem to talk to him if there is any issue happened within the next 5 years. However, it has been 3 months so far without any problem with my charger plugging all the time, which is also the right thing one should do (don't plug and unplug your charger every day because it will physically damage the 240V electric socket; there is completely no electric flowing through the charger other than light up the green LED, so the charger is safe for plugging in all the time).

Besides Tesla electric installation, Chiekh also does several electrical services at a reasonable price. I did ask him to install an electrical socket (with weather cover protection) outside of my garage to plug into my security camera, which is awesome, as I can solve the problem of ""how to power up my camera without taking it down to for charging its battery sometimes.""

Shack called and showed up for a job scheduled a few days down the road. He was engaging and knew his stuff. My power juicer went up smoothly. Shared a bottle of Vita mult

Cheikh is fantastic. He has done 3 different Tesla installations for me. The first was an at home charging station that required a new breaker and line. The second was a more temporary solution using the existing dryer outlet and converting it for quicker charging than standard plug. Just called him for the third installation, which will be similar to 2nd. He is quick, very responsive and a pleasure to work with. He was creative in recommending less costly strategies to accommodate my needs at the time. Highly recommend him. Will be calling him again when my new garage is built so he can install my permanent at home charging station.

Cheikh was an amazing electrician he was very prompt and did a clean install in rapid time i was shocked . I recommend him without fear just do it and do not even bother looking elsewhere you wont be disappointed . i paid $500 for a Tesla wall connector installation. He does tesla installations all day so he is the man you want. Thanks Cheikh
