Transparency with our prices
All of the EV chargers we install indicate a price on our website. This price includes our standard home installation package.
​
We want you to know that the price quoted is the price you will pay after completion of your installation. There will be no hidden extras! We will always perform a site survey in advance of your installation to determine if you qualify or discuss any preference you may have.
Our standard home installation package is shown below and will cover most UK households. If a survey dictates that additional work is required, Greenbase Solutions will provide a breakdown of the additional requirements and costs prior to installation.
​
​The Standard Home Installation Package Includes:
-
The fitting of your selected Charge point on a brick or plaster wall, or other suitable permanent structure.
-
Up to 10 meters of cable, run and neatly clipped to the wall between the distribution board and the charge point.
-
Routing of the cable through a drilled hole in a wall up to 500mm (20 inches) thick, where required.
-
The fitting and testing of electrical connections and protections required for the EV Charger.
-
Installation of a Type C MCB

Up to 3 meters (10 feet) of plastic conduit or trunking to conceal interior wiring.
