When it comes to electrical work, EV charging, solar installations, and battery systems, cutting corners can cost you thousands—and potentially your peace of mind. That’s why hiring licensed, insured, and certified contractors isn’t just smart. It’s essential.
At Santiban Services Group, we don’t just show up with tools—we show up with:
- A $1 million+ insurance aggregate
- Active workers’ compensation for our crew
- Full licensing and certifications for solar, EV, and energy storage systems
- Compliance with NEC 2023 and city permitting standards
The Risk of Hiring Uninsured or Unlicensed Contractors
Imagine this: You hire a low-cost electrician to install a Tesla charger or solar panel setup. Everything looks good—until an installer trips on your property or causes an internal fire from poor workmanship.
Without coverage, guess who’s responsible?
You. The homeowner.
Case Study: The $27,000 EV Charger Mistake
One Houston homeowner hired a “friend of a friend” to install their EV charger. No permit. No insurance. The installer drilled through a water line and caused a flood.
- No general liability = no coverage
- Homeowner paid: $27,000 in repairs
- City shut down the home’s electrical upgrades due to unpermitted work

Real Protection Requires Real Documentation
We encourage every customer to ask these 3 things before hiring any contractor:
1. Are you licensed and certified for my job scope?
2. Can you show proof of insurance (with $1M+ coverage)?
3. Do you provide permitted, code-compliant work backed by warranties?
At Santiban, the answer to all 3 is a resounding �� YES.
Case Study #2: The Solar System That Never Passed
A couple in Bellaire, TX paid a discounted installer for a 10kW solar system. Turns out:
• No electrical permit was pulled
• No city inspection passed
• No utility interconnection was filed
• And worst of all… no insurance coverage
�� The installer ghosted, and they paid again to fix the entire job.
