The easy job: we make your EV installation hassle-free
Written by Holly Bonnett
The market for electric vehicles is really taking off with thousands more people moving every month to EV for cheaper, cleaner travel.
There has never been a better time to move to electric. The lifetime cost of EV ownership is actually cheaper than the polluting petrol and diesel cars, with much lower maintenance costs and other benefits.
Petrol and diesel engines have thousands of moving parts but electric motors are simple, with most units having no more than 20 components so the servicing costs should be much lower than internal combustion (ICE) engine models.
Prospective EV owners be looking for the best ways to charge their vehicles at home and expert installation is essential. For trade professionals, there’s a growing range but which brand to choose is tricky.

There’s a free app so you full control, whether you are at the office, at home, or on the go. It allows you to check the status of the charger, start or pause charging, schedule a charge, lock the charging cable, and much more.

In 2021, the number of EV charging point installations in UK home owners doubled compared to the year before, with many drivers choosing to make the move to electric travel ahead of the ban on sales of new petrol and diesel vehicles from 2030.
EV charger installation will add value to any domestic or commercial project, new-build or renovation. For home buyers, it will become a pretty essential item when choosing which property to select.
