Charging at home or on site is materially cheaper than charging on the public network, and cheaper again when the charge point is paired with solar. We are OZEV approved, so eligible customers can access the chargepoint grant scheme through us.
What EV charge point installation involves
Installing a dedicated electric vehicle charge point means running a correctly rated electrical supply from your consumer unit or distribution board out to a wall-mounted or post-mounted charging unit, fitted with the right protective devices, cabling and load management for your property. It is a distinct piece of electrical work from a standard socket, and it needs to be designed around your existing supply, your parking arrangement and how the vehicle will actually be used, whether that is a single household car or a fleet of company vehicles charging overnight.
Who needs it
Homeowners moving to an electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle need a home charge point that is faster, safer and more convenient than trailing a cable from an indoor socket. Landlords and housing providers are increasingly asked for charging provision by tenants. Employers, retailers, hospitality operators and public sector sites need workplace charging for staff, fleet vehicles or visiting customers, often across multiple bays. We install for all of these across Lancashire, Merseyside, Cheshire and Greater Manchester, covering Preston, Ormskirk, Southport, Liverpool, Warrington, Chester, Wigan and Bolton.
When it is needed
The right time to install is before your new vehicle arrives, not after. Lead-in surveys and quotes are typically turned around in 1–2 working days, which gives you time to plan installation around delivery of the car or, for commercial sites, around parking layout and operational hours. If you are also installing solar PV or a battery, coordinating the charge point at the same time avoids duplicated groundworks and lets us design the electrical supply as a single system.
Why professional installation matters
A charge point draws a sustained high current for hours at a time, so the supply, cabling, earthing arrangement and protective devices all need to be assessed and installed correctly. Incorrect installation risks nuisance tripping, overheating or an unsafe earthing arrangement, particularly where a property has a shared or TT earthing system. As an OZEV approved installer working to Part P and NAPIT standards, we assess your specific supply and property before recommending a solution, rather than fitting a generic unit and hoping it works.

What it costs to wait
What happens when this is left alone
Charging from a standard socket
Using a three-pin socket and trailing lead for regular EV charging puts a sustained heavy load through a circuit and socket that were never designed for hours of continuous high current. It is slow, and it increases the risk of an overheated socket or circuit over time.
Getting the supply assessment wrong
Not every property or site has spare capacity on its existing electrical supply. Installing a charge point without properly assessing the incoming supply, earthing arrangement and any other high-demand loads can lead to nuisance tripping, an unsafe installation, or a unit that has to be removed and redone.
Multiple bays without proper load management
Workplace and fleet sites installing several charge points without designing for shared load management risk exceeding the site's available capacity, tripping circuits, or facing an expensive supply upgrade that could have been avoided with the right design from the outset.

In detail
EV Charge Point Installation explained properly
Domestic charge point installation
For homes, we run a dedicated circuit from your consumer unit to a wall-mounted charge point, typically fitted to an external wall near your driveway or garage. We assess your existing supply capacity, earthing system and cable route on survey, and specify the protective devices needed for a safe, compliant installation under Part P.
Workplace and fleet charging
For employers, retailers and fleet operators, we design multi-bay installations that may include several charge points sharing a single supply, using load management to distribute available capacity across bays without exceeding what the site can safely provide. This is relevant for staff car parks, customer parking and dedicated fleet charging yards.
Supply assessment and earthing
Every installation begins with an assessment of the incoming electrical supply and the property's earthing arrangement. Some properties, particularly those on a TT earthing system or with limited existing capacity, need additional protective measures or a different charge point specification, which is identified at survey rather than discovered on installation day.
OZEV grant scheme installation standards
As an OZEV approved installer for the EV chargepoint grant scheme, our installations are carried out to the technical and safety standards the scheme requires. We can advise on eligibility for grant-supported installations where applicable to your circumstances, alongside commercial finance, PPA or CAPEX funding routes for larger projects.
Coordinating with solar PV and battery storage
Many customers install a charge point alongside solar PV or battery storage, so that charging can draw on generated or stored electricity rather than purely grid supply. We design the electrical installation as a single coordinated system where a customer is installing more than one technology at once, avoiding duplicated cabling or groundworks.
Common questions
Questions about ev charge point installation
Are you an OZEV approved installer?
Yes. We are an OZEV approved installer for the EV chargepoint grant scheme, and we install to the technical and safety standards the scheme requires.
How long does installation take?
Most domestic charge point installations are completed within a day once the supply has been assessed. Workplace and multi-bay installations vary with the number of charge points and any load management required.
Can you install a charge point without a spare circuit on my consumer unit?
We assess your existing electrical supply and consumer unit at survey. Where additional capacity or protective devices are needed, we specify these as part of your written quote rather than after installation has started.
Do you install charge points for businesses and fleets, not just homes?
Yes. We install single domestic charge points and multi-bay workplace, retail and fleet charging, including load management for sites with several charge points sharing one electrical supply.
Can I install an EV charger alongside solar PV or a battery?
Yes, and many customers do. Installing them together lets us design the electrical system once, and means charging can draw on generated or stored electricity where the system is designed to support it.
What areas do you cover?
We install across Lancashire, Merseyside, Cheshire and Greater Manchester, including Preston, Ormskirk, Southport, Liverpool, Warrington, Chester, Wigan and Bolton.
What certification do you hold for electrical work?
We are NAPIT registered and work to Part P standards for domestic electrical work, alongside our RECC and CHAS accreditations and MCS certification for solar and battery installations.
What funding options are available for commercial installations?
For commercial and fleet installations we can discuss commercial finance, a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) or CAPEX purchase. Domestic finance is not currently available.
