A clear, honest breakdown of your EV charger options, transparent pricing, and exactly how we install — safely and to BS 7671.
Your EV charger connects directly to your home's electrical system. So safety, compliance and long-term reliability aren't extras — they're the whole job.
This guide is built to be simple, transparent and stress-free: the charger options available, what installation actually costs, what affects pricing, and how we keep every install safe and certified.
Every installation is carried out by qualified electricians who specialise in EV charging. We follow strict industry standards so your charger runs safely and reliably for years.

Public charging is convenient but pricey. Charging overnight at home on a smart EV tariff costs a fraction of public rapid chargers — so for most drivers the installation pays for itself within the first year.
Illustrative estimate based on roughly 8,000 miles a year at about 3.5 miles per kWh, comparing a home overnight EV tariff with typical public charging rates. Actual savings depend on your mileage, vehicle and the tariffs available to you. Energy prices change — figures should be reviewed against current rates.
