Covering Wantage's historic Market Place and the fast-growing new estates at Crab Hill in Grove.

Wantage & Grove, OX12

Wantage and Grove function as one built-up area, but they're at very different stages: Wantage's Market Place — home to the statue of King Alfred the Great, traditionally said to have been born here in 849 — sits among older housing with on-street parking, while Grove is partway through one of the county's biggest new-build phases at Crab Hill, a 1,500-home development approved in 2015 and still being built out. We quote each on what's actually there, not a single town-wide assumption.

## Installing in Wantage & Grove, specifically

### Wantage's historic centre

The streets around the Market Place are older housing, generally with on-street parking rather than driveways, so we plan for a cross-pavement cable route rather than assuming a simple driveway install.

### Crab Hill, Grove

Crab Hill is a 1,500-home development behind Charlton village, approved in 2015 and still being built out in phases. New-build homes here have modern consumer units, which usually means a quick, same-visit install — though with construction ongoing nearby, we check site access before booking.

### Supply

Wantage and Grove sit within SSEN's Oxfordshire distribution area, the same operator covering the rest of the county.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does an EV charger cost to install?

A typical home installation costs between £800 and £1,400 depending on the charger model you choose and the complexity of the cable run. That includes the charger unit, the full installation, and the electrical certification. We'll give you a fixed quote before any work starts — no surprises.

### What is the OZEV grant and can I get it?

The OZEV EV chargepoint grant contributes up to £350 toward the cost of installation for eligible properties — currently flats, rental homes, and some commercial premises. Eligibility rules change often, so we'll check your situation honestly and handle the full application if you qualify.

### How long does a typical installation take?

Most home installations are finished in 3 to 5 hours. We arrive in the morning, protect your driveway and walls, run the cable, install the charger, commission it on the app, and give you a walkthrough before we leave.

### Do I need a driveway to have a charger fitted?

Off-street parking is the simplest case, but not the only one. If you have a dedicated bay or a garage we can usually find a safe cable route. Street-to-kerb installations are generally not permitted under current regulations — we'll always tell you upfront if we can't help.

### Which charger brands do you install?

We fit all major brands including Zappi, Ohme, Hypervolt, Sync EV, EO and Wallbox. If you already know what you want we'll install it; if not, we'll recommend the right unit for your car, tariff and property.
