Local electric car charging point experts
How much does it cost to install an electric car charging point at home?
- Basic Charging Points: Standard home chargers, often rated at 3.6kW to 7kW, are suitable for most EV owners and provide a steady, reliable charge. These chargers typically cost between £300 and £700, which includes installation. They are a good option for overnight charging, allowing you to start each day with a full battery.
- High-Powered Chargers: For faster charging, you may consider a high-powered charger, such as a 22kW model, which provides more rapid charging times but may require additional electrical upgrades to support higher power usage. These advanced units, which often come with smart features like Wi-Fi connectivity, scheduling, and app controls, generally cost between £700 and £1,200. Such chargers are ideal for users with high daily mileage needs or those who prefer shorter charging times.
Many regions offer government grants to reduce the cost of installing an EV charging point at home. These grants can help cover a significant portion of the installation cost, making it more affordable to adopt an electric vehicle. Check with your local authorities or consult with an installer to understand the grants available in your area and how to apply.
How long does installation take?
Installing a home charging point generally takes 2 to 4 hours. This includes setting up the charger, connecting it to the main electrical supply, and conducting safety checks to ensure everything operates correctly. Complex installations may take longer, especially if the charger needs to be installed far from the main power source.
How difficult is it to install an electric car charging point?
While installing an electric car charging point is straightforward for a certified electrician, it involves working with high-voltage equipment and connecting to the home’s electrical system. For safety and regulatory compliance, always hire a qualified professional to complete the installation. They will ensure the correct setup, grounding, and any required upgrades to the circuit.
Other electric car charging point FAQs
Can you get a grant to install an electric car charging point at home?
Yes, in many areas, government grants are available to help reduce the cost of home charging point installations. Check with your local authority or installer for details.
Can any electrician install a charging point at home?
Not all electricians are certified to install EV chargers, so it’s essential to hire a professional with EV charging installation credentials.
Do I need planning permission to install an electric car charging point?
Planning permission is generally not required for home charging points, though it’s recommended to check with local authorities for any specific restrictions.

Kevin came round after hours and measured up. Two days later he was here fitting 2 new poles and 2 new shelves took him just over an hour. He even gave a hint to keep my doors in motion rather than adding more costs to something that didnt need doing.
