People often put off ev charger installation on a victorian terrace because they expect the worst. Usually the scope is narrower than feared. Two things dominate ev charger installation on a Victorian terrace in Cardiff: shared party wall with a neighbour, meaning EV/CU cabling has to route through the front elevation or under floorboards, not chase across a shared wall, and no rear access — every cable, board and EV cable enters through the front door or the small back yard. Where an installation has been extended over decades, the sensible approach is to establish a baseline before adding anything else to it. Which is why the price follows the test rather than the other way round.
That's the whole process for a Cardiff Victorian terrace, on one page. What we are really assessing is condition, not age. Diary planned for the access constraint matters; the date on the board does not, by itself. The regulations are specific about it, so there is little room for opinion. Ev charger installation on a victorian terrace in a Cardiff property is not the same conversation as it would be in a new build, and it should not be priced as if it were.
