EV Charger Installation on a period flat in Caerphilly is a physical problem before it is an electrical one. The stock is conversion of pre-1940 building, walls are solid or mixed masonry, partition walls timber-framed with plasterboard, and the practical constraint is that freeholder or managing-agent consent almost always required for cu work. we handle the letter chain if needed.

That shapes every line on the quote. We survey the hallway, the cable route and the consumer unit location before pricing — because on this property type the standard scope is only standard once you know what you're working around.

02
Written fixed quote
Priced against your period flat's specific construction, not a template. Route sketched, materials listed, no line-item surprises.
03
Booked around access
Diary planned for the access constraint that matters on this stock — freeholder or managing-agent consent almost always required for cu work.
04
Certificate + evidence pack
NICEIC certificate, photo evidence of hidden work, Part P where applicable — all emailed the evening the job signs off.
