Home charging in Barnt Green

A charger that suits your home in Barnt Green

Barnt Green, Blackwell and Lickey are known for large detached homes on generous plots, many with long drives, garages and room for two cars on charge.

On larger properties the charger often goes on a gate pillar, detached garage or post by the parking area, with an armoured cable laid neatly underground. Two electric cars? We fit twin chargers or two units with load management, so they share your supply safely without a costly upgrade.

We check your supply, main fuse and earthing first and agree the position and cable route with you. Already have solar panels? A solar-aware charger such as a myenergi zappi can top up your car from your own roof. We set up the app before we leave, including Octopus-compatible chargers on Intelligent Octopus Go. See our home charger prices.

We fit home chargers across the area, including:

  • Barnt Green
  • Alvechurch
  • Cofton Hackett
  • Blackwell
  • Lickey
  • Hopwood
  • Burcot
  • Bromsgrove

“Had a home charger fitted today, Stuart was really friendly and fitted the charger in such a short amount of time. He was really helpful with advising how it would all work once fitted. Arranging the installation was easy, too.”

“Received an absolutely brilliant quote because I was providing my own materials. Scott from Able came out and did a fantastic, clean-looking install for my EV charger, and it all functioned correctly. Would happily recommend them.”

Do you install chargers in Barnt Green and Alvechurch?

Yes. Our team fits workplace, car park and home chargers across Barnt Green, Alvechurch, Cofton Hackett, Blackwell, Lickey, Hopwood and Burcot. Your local number is 0121 285 0136.

Our drive is long. Is that a problem?

No. A longer cable run or groundwork is priced up front from your photos, so you know the full cost before we arrive.

Can the charger go away from the house?

Yes. We regularly fit chargers on gate pillars, garages and posts by the parking area, with an armoured cable laid underground and the ground made good.

We have two electric cars. Can we charge both?

Yes. We fit twin-socket chargers or two separate chargers with load management, so both cars charge overnight without overloading your supply.

Which charger do you recommend?

VCHRGD is our top pick for reliability and customer service. For a premium look, Andersen and the Tesla Wall Connector are popular, and myenergi zappi suits homes with solar panels.

When do I pay?

Only when the charger is installed, the app is set up and tested with you, and you're fully satisfied.

Is there funding for charging at work?

There is. The Workplace Charging Scheme covers up to £500 per socket for up to 40 sockets, and schools funded by the state can get up to £2,000 per socket. Landlords have their own scheme at up to £500 per socket. All of them close on 31 March 2027.

Do homeowners get a grant?

Not if you own a house, unfortunately. The OZEV home grant is for renters and flat owners with private off-street parking, and it's worth up to £500. We'll tell you straight away whether you qualify.

Which brands can you fit?

All the main ones, including Rolec, Ohme, VCHRGD, Tesla, Andersen and myenergi zappi. Tell us what you drive and how you use it, and we'll explain the options in plain English.

What if my fuse board is old?

An old fuse board may need upgrading before a charger goes on, and we'll tell you honestly if it does. We look at the board, supply and earthing on every job, and handle any network operator paperwork.

Will the work disrupt my business?

We plan commercial installs so your site keeps running, with evening and weekend work by arrangement and full RAMS. Home chargers are usually fitted in one visit.

Do I need a smart charger?

Yes. Home and workplace chargers installed in Great Britain must meet the Smart Charge Points Regulations 2021, so every charger we fit is a smart charger with scheduling built in.

How do I get a price?

Fill in the form or call your local team. Photos of your parking space and fuse board often let us price a job in Barnt Green and Alvechurch without visiting, and you'll get a clear, fixed quote with any grant shown.
