Borehamwood has grown fast, and its housing shows it: plenty of post-war semis and terraces through the town centre and Well End, and a wave of modern developments and new-builds where driveways and allocated parking make for tidy installations — though new-build electrics sometimes come with their own quirks, like consumer units already near capacity, which our survey is designed to spot from your photos before quote day. Whatever you’re in, pictures of your fuse board, parking spot and cable route are all we need to give you a fixed price that doesn’t change on the day. Renting or in a flat with allocated parking? We’ll walk you through the permissions as part of your quote.
We’re brand-independent and install all the leading units — Zappi, Ohme, Hypervolt, Easee, Andersen, Tesla Wall Connector and more — so you get the right charger for your car, your tariff and your budget, not whichever one an installer has in the van. Not sure which suits you? Try our EV Charger Selector tool.
1. Free remote survey. A few questions and a few photos from your phone — our guides show you exactly what to snap. About 10 minutes.
2. Fixed quote. We price the whole job from your survey. If your property needs an in-person look instead, a site visit is £75, fully refunded when you go ahead.
3. Installation day. A NICEIC-registered engineer fits, tests and demonstrates your charger — typically half a day. We handle the DNO (electricity network) notification for you.
4. Aftercare. Every installation carries our 12-month workmanship guarantee on top of the manufacturer’s warranty.
In almost all cases, no — home charge points are permitted development. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the exceptions; if that might be you, flag it in your survey and we’ll advise before anything is booked.
Usually, but not always. New-builds have modern wiring, which helps, yet developers often fill the consumer unit or size the supply tightly, and some estates have covenants about external fixtures. Your survey photos let us spot all of this in advance, so the quote you get is the price you pay.
The old £350 homeowner grant closed some years ago, despite what some installers’ websites still claim. Current government support is targeted — mainly flat owners, renters, landlords and workplaces — and schemes change. We’ll check what applies to you as part of your quote.
It depends on the charger you choose and how far it sits from your fuse board — see our installation cost guide for typical prices. Whatever we quote from your survey is fixed.
