Charging at home in Knowle & Dorridge
Knowle and Dorridge homes are mainly detached with long drives and detached garages, and longer cable runs or a charger on a post are often the best options.
Driveway or garage
The simplest install. We fit the charger where the cable reaches comfortably, often on the front wall, inside the garage or on a post by the drive.
Flat or allocated bay
Possible with permission from the freeholder or management company. You may get up to £500 off with the government grant.
Renting your home
Get your landlord's permission and you could get up to £500 off. We claim the grant for you as OZEV-approved installers.
Homes with solar
A solar-aware charger like a zappi can fill your car with your own free electricity. We're MCS certified for solar too.
Getting the right charger for your Knowle & Dorridge home
Pick a charger that suits your tariff
If you're on, or switching to, Intelligent Octopus Go, choose a compatible charger such as VCHRGD (our top pick), Ohme, Hypervolt, Andersen or zappi, or check whether your car connects directly.
Tethered or untethered?
A tethered charger has its cable attached, so it's always ready. An untethered socket keeps the wall clear, but you plug in your own cable. See our guide to choosing a charger.
Think about the future
If a second EV or solar panels are likely, we can choose a charger and circuit now that make adding them later simple.

Choosing a home charger in Knowle & Dorridge
Honest answers from our local electricians.
What's the best charger for a home in Knowle & Dorridge?
It depends on your car, your tariff and whether you have solar. Our top pick for most homes is VCHRGD: it works with Intelligent Octopus Go, it's great value and its customer service is excellent. If you have solar panels, a zappi is ideal. We'll recommend the right one for you.
Can you fit a charger at a Knowle & Dorridge terrace or flat?
Often, yes, as long as the charger serves a space you have the right to park in. For flats and rented homes, you may get up to £500 off through the government grant, which we claim for you.
Do you notify the network operator?
Yes. Every home charger has to be notified to the local network operator, National Grid in the Midlands. We do it for you, and register the work for Building Regulations through our NICEIC scheme.
Do you set up the app?
Yes. Before we leave, we connect the charger to your Wi-Fi, set up the app, link your tariff, and show you how it all works.
Will you beat Octopus's price?
Yes. For the same charger and the same standard of installation, we'll beat Octopus's advertised price, and we'll set up the app and link it to your Octopus account before we leave.
What if I'm not happy?
We don't take payment until you're happy, so if anything isn't right, we put it right first.
What if I don't have a driveway?
Most installs need a drive, garage or allocated bay. If you don't have one, call us. We'll tell you honestly whether there's an option for your street.
