What our customers say
what's included

Everything the job covers

No vague line items. Here's exactly what you get when you book this service.

Proper fault diagnosis

We test the charger, the circuit and the connection to find the actual cause, rather than swapping parts and hoping.

Honest repair or replace advice

If a repair isn't worth it on an ageing unit, we'll say so and show you the numbers both ways.

Fixed price repairs

The cost is agreed before we touch anything, and it doesn't change without notice.

Circuit and switchboard check

We verify the dedicated circuit and its protection are still sound, since faults often sit at the board rather than the charger.

Testing and warranty*

Every repair and replacement is tested under load and backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty*.

Pricing guidance

Fixed price, agreed upfront

Every diagnosis and repair is quoted with a fixed price agreed before any work proceeds. Your exact price depends on:

  • The fault and any parts required
  • The age and type of your existing charger
  • Whether repair or replacement makes better sense

Frequently asked questions

My charger keeps tripping the breaker. What's wrong?

Repeated tripping means something is genuinely faulty, either the charger, the vehicle's onboard system, or the circuit itself. Don't keep resetting it. We isolate each part and find which one is at fault.

Should I repair or replace my charger?

As a rule of thumb, if the unit is well out of warranty and the repair costs more than a third of a new charger, replacement usually wins. We'll give you both numbers and an honest recommendation.

Can you reuse my existing circuit for a new charger?

Often yes. If the existing dedicated circuit is in good condition and correctly sized for the new unit, reusing it keeps the replacement cost down. We confirm this during the assessment.

Can you move my charger to a different spot?

Yes. Relocations are common after renovations or a change of vehicle. We'll look at the new position, the cable route back to the board, and quote it upfront before any work starts.
