Neat installs, wherever you park

Driveway, integral garage or detached garage: the charger goes where it's easiest to plug in, with the cable run kept tidy and protected.

A home charger that suits your house

A 7kW home charger adds roughly 25 to 30 miles of range for every hour plugged in. That's around three times faster than a three-pin plug, and on an overnight EV tariff most drivers fill up for a few pounds.

Every Basingstoke home is a little different. A 1970s semi in Brighton Hill, a new build in Popley and a cottage in Old Basing all need a different approach. Before we quote, we look at:

  • The distance from your fuse board to where you park, and the neatest cable route
  • Your consumer unit, and whether it has room and the right protection
  • Your earthing and supply, including looped supplies and main fuse size
  • How you charge: overnight tariff, solar panels, one car or two

You then get one fixed price covering the charger, the install, testing, SSEN notification and handover of the app.

EV charger questions from Basingstoke drivers

How much does EV charger installation cost in Basingstoke?

Most standard home installs with a 7kW smart charger come in at around £850 to £1,200, including the charger. Long cable runs, a consumer unit upgrade or groundworks add to that. You get a fixed price after a free survey. See our full price guide.

How long does a home charger installation take?

A typical driveway install takes 3 to 5 hours. Jobs with a consumer unit swap, a garage run or trenching can take a full day.

Do I need permission from SSEN?

Your installer notifies SSEN, the network operator for Basingstoke, as part of the job. If your supply is looped or the main fuse is too small, we arrange that with SSEN before fitting.

Can I get a grant?

Renters, flat owners, landlords and businesses can claim OZEV grants of up to £500 per socket (2026 rates). Homeowners in houses with their own driveway are no longer eligible. See EV charger grants.

Which charger should I choose?

For most homes on a smart EV tariff, an Ohme, Hypervolt or zappi works well. If you have solar panels, a zappi or a Hypervolt with its solar add-on makes the most of your own power. We fit all the main brands. Compare them on chargers we install.

Do you fix chargers someone else installed?

Yes. We diagnose and repair any make, including chargers whose original installer has stopped trading. See EV charger repair.
