A home charger is far cheaper and more convenient than public charging. But what does installation actually cost in 2026? Here’s the guide.
Typical cost
A standard home EV charger installation typically starts from around £750 + VAT, depending on the charger you choose and how straightforward the installation is. We give a fixed price after a quick survey or a few photos of your fuse board and parking.
What affects the price
- The charger — tethered or untethered, smart features, and brand.
- Cable run — the distance from your consumer unit to the charging point.
- Consumer unit — older boards may need a small upgrade or a dedicated way added.
- Groundworks — running a cable across a driveway or wall.
Are there grants?
Grants change over time and now mainly apply to flats, rented homes and certain landlords rather than most homeowners. We’ll tell you if your property is likely to qualify when we quote.
What’s included
A proper installation includes the charger, the wiring and protection, testing, and certification — all to the current regulations. See our EV charger installation service, and if your board needs work, our consumer unit page.
