What We Like

• 4.8 rating from 469 Google reviews as of September 28, 2026
• Photo-based virtual assessment with a final quote typically inside 48 hours
• Handles permit filing and inspection scheduling in-house
• Advertises a two year labour warranty on installation work
• Covers multi-family and commercial charging as well as single homes
• Financing with monthly payments offered on installs

Things to Consider

• Specialist scope, so not a fit for general repairs, fault-finding or emergency call-outs
• Operates across many markets, so the review score is not Detroit-specific
• Partner contractor model means it is worth asking who will actually be on site
• Quote accuracy depends on the photos you supply during the virtual assessment

Electrification work has become its own specialty, and this is a company that treats it that way. Rather than covering the full spread of residential electrical jobs, treehouse concentrates on Level 2 EV charging at home, battery backup systems, charging for multi-family buildings and commercial sites, and the panel or service upgrades those projects tend to trigger. New appliance circuits sit in the same bucket. If the reason you are calling an electrician is that a car, a battery or a heat pump has arrived and your panel was not designed for it, this is the type of outfit built for the job.

The process is unusual enough to be worth explaining. You fill out a short survey, and for charger installs the site says you get an instant ballpark figure. Then comes a virtual assessment, where you send photos of the panel, the meter, the proposed charger location and the run between them. A final quote follows, usually inside two days according to the company. That cuts out the scheduling dance of an in-person estimate, which is genuinely useful if you work daytime hours. It also means the accuracy of your price depends on the quality of your photos. Open the panel door, get the label legible, show the full wall and the basement route if there is one. Ambiguity found on install day is where change orders come from.

Detroit and the surrounding communities give this work a particular shape. Much of the housing in the city, Hamtramck, Ferndale and the older parts of Dearborn dates to the 1910s through the 1950s, and a lot of it still runs on 60 or 100 amp service with a crowded panel and no spare breaker space. A 48 amp charger does not fit into that without a service upgrade, and a service upgrade means coordinating with DTE Energy as well as pulling a city permit and passing inspection. That coordination is the slow part of any Detroit charger job, and a company that handles the paperwork in-house rather than handing you a permit number is doing you a real favour. Winter is the other local factor. Outdoor conduit, exterior-rated equipment and a charger mounted where a snow shovel or a plough ridge will not clip it are all worth discussing before the crew leaves.

Battery backup has an obvious Detroit audience. Storm outages across southeast Michigan are common enough that whole neighbourhoods have a generator habit, and a battery paired with a critical-loads subpanel is the quieter alternative. Ask which loads get backed up, how long the battery will actually carry them, and where the equipment will live, since basements here flood more than anyone would like. For apartment and commercial property owners, the questions are different: how many stalls the existing service can support, load management options, and whether the electrical room has room to grow.

What treehouse is not is a general electrician. Nothing in its material suggests troubleshooting a dead circuit, chasing knob and tube, rewiring a bungalow or turning up after hours for a burning smell. For those jobs you want a local shop with a service van and a dispatcher. There is also the practical question of who physically does the work. The model is software-led installation management, and the site openly invites electrical contractors to partner, so it is fair to ask who will be on site, whether they are employees or a partner crew, and who answers the phone if something needs correcting later.

On the reassurance side, the company advertises a two year labour warranty, which is longer than the one year many installers offer, and financing with monthly payments. Get the warranty terms in writing, including what counts as labour versus equipment, since the charger or battery manufacturer covers hardware separately. Confirm the permit and inspection are included in the quoted price rather than billed after.

The Google rating stands at 4.8 from 469 reviews as read on September 28, 2026, a substantial volume that reflects a multi-market operation rather than Detroit alone. The customer comments the company publishes come from Texas, California, Illinois and Florida, so treat the score as a signal about the overall process more than about any one local crew. Worth asking how many installs they have done in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, and which inspectors they deal with regularly.
