EV charging for Southgate homes

Southgate is classic 1930s suburbia at its best — tree-lined avenues of semis with driveways around Oakwood and Winchmore Hill that are ideal for a wall-mounted charger, alongside Victorian terraces towards Palmers Green and New Southgate where the cable route needs a little more planning. Whatever you’re working with, our photo survey establishes it precisely: 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.

Chargers we install

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. Undecided? Our EV Charger Selector tool narrows it down in a minute.

How it works

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. Prefer an in-person look, or your property needs one? 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.

Frequently asked questions — EV chargers in Southgate

Do I need planning permission for an EV charger in Southgate?

In almost all cases, no — home charge points are permitted development. The exceptions are listed buildings and conservation areas, such as around Southgate Green; if that’s you, prior approval may be needed and we’ll advise during your survey before anything is booked.

My driveway is at the side — where does the charger go?

Wherever your cable comfortably reaches your car’s charging port, which we plan from your survey photos. Side driveways, garages and rear parking are all everyday installs for us — the survey’s cable-route photo is exactly what settles it.

Are there any grants available?

The old £350 homeowner grant closed some years ago, despite what some installers’ websites still say. Today’s 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.

How much does installation cost?

It depends on the charger you choose and how far it sits from your fuse board — our installation cost guide covers typical prices. Whatever we quote from your survey is fixed.
