Gerrards Cross is one of the most affluent commuter towns in Buckinghamshire, and it's also home to an exceptionally high rate of electric vehicle ownership. The SL9 postcode area has one of the highest concentrations of Tesla Model 3 and Model S vehicles in the UK, along with numerous Porsche Taycan, BMW iX, and other premium electric cars. If you're one of the many GX residents who've made the switch to electric, you need a reliable home charging solution that matches the quality of your vehicle.

As local OZEV-approved installers based in the area, we understand the unique requirements of Gerrards Cross properties. Many homes in this area are large detached properties with generous driveways and gardens, often with three-phase power available which allows for faster 22kW charging. Whether you have a period property in the centre of town near the Chiltern Mainline station or a modern executive home in Oval Way or Camp Road, we can provide a tailored EV charging solution.

Why GX Residents Choose Us for EV Charger Installation

Unlike national chains, we're a local company with deep knowledge of Gerrards Cross and the surrounding Buckinghamshire area. This means we can typically offer same-week installation—often within 2-3 days of your enquiry—compared to the multi-week waits you'll experience with larger installers. We're familiar with the local grid capacity and can advise on the best charger placement for your property.

All our installations are carried out by qualified electricians who are OZEV-approved, meaning you can claim the LEVI grant of £350 towards your installation cost. We handle all the paperwork so you don't have to worry about meeting the strict OZEV requirements yourself.

Charger Options for Gerrards Cross Homes

We install all leading EV charger brands, each with different strengths:

  • Ohme Home Pro — Smart charging that's perfect for Octopus Energy users. It can automatically charge during off-peak hours to save you money.
  • Zappi V2 — The best choice if you have solar panels. It can use surplus solar energy to charge your car, making it truly green.
  • Wallbox Pulsar Max — A sleek, compact design with excellent smart features and a choice of colours to match your home.
  • Pod Point Solo 3 — A reliable, popular choice with flexible mounting options and good value.

For larger Gerrards Cross properties with three-phase power, we can install 22kW chargers that charge vehicles significantly faster than the standard 7kW units. Many Tesla and Porsche owners in the area opt for 22kW chargers to maximise charging speed.

The Installation Process

Our EV charger installation in Gerrards Cross follows a straightforward process. First, we'll visit your property to survey the best location for the charger and check your electrical capacity. Most homes in GX have sufficient capacity for a 7kW charger, but we'll advise if any electrical upgrades are needed.

On installation day, our qualified electrician will run a dedicated circuit from your consumer unit to the charger location, mount the weatherproof charger unit, and connect everything safely. The installation typically takes 3-4 hours, and we'll test the charger with your vehicle to ensure everything works perfectly.

We'll also walk you through how to use your new charger and help you set up any smartphone apps for scheduling and monitoring your charging.

Costs and the LEVI Grant

Without the grant, EV charger installation in Gerrards Cross costs between £700 and £1,200 depending on the charger model and your property's requirements. After applying the LEVI grant of £350, you'll pay between £350 and £850.

The LEVI grant is available to homeowners, renters, and landlords in Gerrards Cross who have off-street parking and meet the eligibility criteria. We can check your eligibility and handle the entire grant application process for you.

For those with solar panel installations, the Zappi charger can make your EV charging virtually free by using surplus solar energy—a particularly attractive option for the many GX homes that already have rooftop solar.
