EV charger installation in Basingstoke
JD Electricals fits 7.4kW home EV charge points across Basingstoke and nearby Hampshire towns. JD Electricals quotes the work, runs the cable from the fuse board and leaves you with a working charger on the driveway or in the garage.
“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

Who books an EV charger in Basingstoke
- People in Basingstoke, Kempshott, Hatch Warren, Chineham, Hook and Fleet book this work when a new car needs a proper wall charger instead of a three pin trickle lead.
- You have taken delivery of a plug in car and want a 7.4kW home charge point on the drive or in the garage so overnight charging is quicker than a household socket.
- Semi detached homes in Popley, Oakley and Tadley often have the board in the garage or hallway, which keeps the cable run short and keeps the job to a home 7.4kW unit.
- A trailing lead through a window is slow and awkward. We move charging onto a dedicated wall unit with a tidy cable path from the board.
What is covered
Here is what a typical 7.4kW home charger job with JD Electricals covers, and what sits outside it.
Included
- A look at the fuse board and the parking bay before we quote
- A written price for a 7.4kW home charge point
- The cable run from the board to the charger position
- Fitting and testing the home charger
- Showing you how to start a charge before we leave
Not included
- Workplace rapid chargers and three phase commercial bays
- Grant forms or energy company paperwork
- Civil work such as digging a new drive or pouring a plinth
What happens on the day
JD Electricals carries out the charger job, from arrival at the house to a working unit on the wall.
- 01
Arrival and board check
We arrive at the property, confirm the parking bay and inspect the fuse board so the 7.4kW load can sit on the existing installation.
- 02
Cable run and charger fitting
We run the cable along the path we set from the board to the wall, mount the 7.4kW unit and make the connections.
- 03
Test and handover
We test the charger, walk you through a first charge and leave any paperwork the job needs, including a minor works certificate from £95 when the work calls for one.
What an EV charger installation costs
A 7.4kW home charge point from £750 covers the visit, the cable run from the fuse board, fitting the charger and testing before we leave.
- £750 is a starting price for a typical 7.4kW home charger, not a fixed figure for every house.
- A long cable run, a tight garage, or a fuse board that cannot take the extra load can raise the total, and we put that in writing first.
- Booked charger jobs sit in our working hours.
What you get after an EV charger job
You are left with a working 7.4kW home charger, a clear wall position and a note of how the car reaches it.
- A defined charger position
- The unit sits on the driveway wall or in the garage where the car actually parks, with the cable long enough to reach the inlet without stretching across a path.
- Any supply upgrade quoted apart
- If the fuse board cannot take a 7.4kW charger, we price a board change on its own from £650 rather than folding that work into the charger figure.
- An access record for the property
- You keep a simple note of how we reached the board, where the cable runs and which parking bay the charger serves, so a later visit does not start from scratch.
Why customers choose JD Electricals for EV chargers
You get clear company responsibility throughout, a written price before any cable is cut, and a working 7.4kW charger with the paperwork at the end.

Common questions
These are the questions Basingstoke households ask before we fit a home charger.
How much does a home EV charger cost?+
A 7.4kW home charge point with JD Electricals starts at £750. A long cable run or a fuse board that needs changing sits on top of that figure and goes in the written quote first.
— James Dunn
Do I need a new fuse board for an EV charger?+
Not always. Many Basingstoke houses can take a 7.4kW unit on the existing board. If the board is full or old, a replacement starts at £650 and we price that as its own line.
— James Dunn
Who turns up to fit the charger?+
JD Electricals manages the work from the quote through to the final test, with the agreed details kept against the job throughout.
Can you fit a charger in a garage in Kempshott or Hatch Warren?+
Yes. Garage walls in those estates are a common place for a 7.4kW unit, as long as the car can sit close enough for the cable to reach.
Is this for a workplace rapid charger?+
No. This job is a 7.4kW home charge point. Commercial Starlink work is a different service, and workplace rapid bays are outside this work.
