Two questions dominate ev charger installation enquiries from cafés & restaurants across Cardiff: what does the fixed price actually cover, and what does the certificate need to say so the insurer signs off first time?
We answer both at quote stage, on paper. No "we'll see on the day", no fictional starting price. If a variable is real for your Cardiff address, we survey it before quoting — not after invoicing.
Why Cardiff specifically
In Cardiff specifically, the housing/premises mix is a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Cathays and Roath, 1930s semis around Whitchurch, and modern estates in Pontprennau and Pentwyn, with the Splott, Leckwith and Cardiff Bay business parks cluster shaping most of the commercial enquiries we see.
Why cafés & restaurants book ev charger installation first
EV Charger Installation for cafés & restaurants is a compressed brief: keeping kitchens, front-of-house and cellar circuits compliant and running — the moment a fridge trips, food is at risk. We quote against that brief, not a template.
What we build into every quote
We quote against the trigger you told us about at booking (environmental health visit, insurance renewal, a kitchen fit-out, or a repeated RCD trip in service), not a generic checklist.
Local factor for Cardiff: Cardiff Bay properties get more wind-driven rain than the city centre, so outdoor work near the bay benefits from upgraded IP-rated enclosures. We surface that at survey rather than after invoicing.
Fixed price at quote stage: everything is on the written quote, so business approvals happen once, not twice.
Invoice routes to the business as standard. Split billing across multiple café / restaurants or landlords is normal.
