The longest tether we fit

Hypervolt

7.4kW · Tethered, 5m, 7.5m or 10m

The basics that decide whether this is a straightforward job.

Do you have, or have you ordered, a plug-in vehicle?

Do you have off-road parking at home?

The cable cannot cross a public footpath, so the space has to be yours.

Is there already a charger at the property?

Free, no obligation. We never pass your details on.

What customers say

Jo Pryce Local Guide · 24 reviews

Reasonable price · £1,000–£1,200

Bailey came out to fit our new EV charger and wow, he's done an amazing, professional job and even swept up after himself! Friendly guy too, defo knows what he's talking about. Will be calling him back when we need other stuff doing. 10 out of 10!

Carrie Browne 2 reviews

Great price · £1,200–£1,400

We had an EV charger fitted at home, we didn't even know where to start with looking for this. We contacted Newton Electrical and found Bailey so helpful, he explained the pros and cons of different chargers and guided us through to understand EV chargers better. On the day of installation Bailey turned up on time, was very pleasant and worked hard to get the EV charger fitted. Baileys work was very tidy and he cleaned and tidied up after himself. Once the charger was fitted Bailey took the time to show me how to use the app and how to use the charger. Very professional, would highly recommend.

Richie 5 reviews

Great price

Newton Electrical fitted my EV charger and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Bailey was knowledgeable, efficient and competitively priced, and his workmanship was really tidy. What I appreciated most was how clearly he explained the whole process, from what he was installing, to how the equipment worked, to what I needed to know for day-to-day use. It made everything feel straightforward and gave me real confidence in the setup.

It's great having a company who are local, accessible, reliable and genuinely care about doing a proper job. Bailey turned up when he said he would, communicated well throughout, and took the time to make sure I understood everything before he left. I'd happily recommend Bailey and Newton Electrical to anyone looking for an EV charger installation or electrical work.

Questions

The things people ask us

How much does an EV charger installation cost?

For a standard home installation, you would typically be looking at £800–£1,200, depending on the charger you choose and the electrical setup at your property. More complex installations, longer cable runs or additional electrical work can increase the cost, but we'll assess everything first and provide a clear quotation before any work is carried out.

Which EV charger is best suited to my home?

We'll recommend the charger that best suits your vehicle, property, charging habits and electricity tariff. We install a carefully selected range of chargers including Ohme, Hypervolt and evec.

Do I need to choose a charger before requesting a quotation?

Not at all. Tell us what car you have and a little about your property and we'll talk you through the options.

Can you assess my property's suitability from photos?

In most cases, yes. We'll normally ask for photos of your meter, consumer unit, proposed charger location and the route between them so we can assess the installation and provide an accurate quotation.

Will my consumer unit need upgrading for an EV charger installation?

Not necessarily. We'll assess your existing electrical setup first. If additional protection or a separate EV consumer unit is required, we'll explain this clearly and include it within your quotation.

Is off-street parking required for a home EV charger?

Generally, you'll need somewhere on your property where the vehicle can be parked and charged safely. If you're unsure whether your property is suitable, send us some details and we'll advise you.

How long does an EV charger installation take?

Many straightforward installations can be completed within a day. More complex cable routes or additional electrical work can take longer, but we'll explain this before booking your installation.

Can the charger be installed away from my meter or fuse board?

Yes. Every property is different and we can route the supply to the most suitable charger location. Longer or more complex cable routes may affect the cost.

What is the difference between a tethered and untethered charger?

A tethered charger has the charging cable permanently attached, making everyday charging quick and convenient. An untethered charger has a socket instead, giving you a cleaner appearance and the flexibility to use your own cable.

Can an EV charger be used with off-peak electricity tariffs?

Yes. Smart chargers can be scheduled around compatible EV tariffs, helping you take advantage of cheaper charging periods where available.

Can an EV charger be used with solar panels?

Yes. If solar matters to you, the Hypervolt has a built-in solar sensor, so surplus power from your panels is sent to the car rather than the grid. Tell us you have solar and we'll recommend the right charger to make the most of it.

Are longer charging cables available?

No problem. We offer tethered chargers with different cable lengths, so we can help you choose one that comfortably reaches your vehicle.

Do you handle the DNO notification?

Yes. Where required, we handle the relevant DNO notification or application as part of the installation.

Will I receive an electrical certificate on completion?

Yes. Your installation will be fully tested and the appropriate electrical certification provided.

What electrical protection does an EV charger require?

EV chargers require the correct electrical protection to keep both you and the charger protected. We assess every installation individually and install the appropriate protection for your property and charger.

Will you commission the charger and set up the app?

Yes. We commission the charger, connect it to the app and show you how everything works before we leave.

Do you register the charger warranty?

Yes. We'll make sure the charger is correctly commissioned and the relevant manufacturer warranty is activated or registered where required.

Can you install a charger I have supplied myself?

Potentially, yes. Send us the make and model and we can check whether it is suitable for your property and installation.

What happens if I experience a problem after installation?

All chargers come with a 3 year warranty. We provide local aftercare and support following your installation, so if you have any questions or issues afterwards, you can get in touch with us.

How do I request a free EV charger quotation?

Simply send us an enquiry with your vehicle details and a little information about your property. We'll ask for any photos we need, assess the installation and provide you with a free quotation.
