South West
Region

Cornwall's housing includes stone-built cottages, terraces in towns like Truro and Falmouth, and modern estates. Older properties may need earthing upgrades, and stone walls can complicate cable routing.

Most Cornish properties have off-street parking. However, narrow lanes and limited access in coastal villages can occasionally complicate installer access for equipment delivery.

Cornwall has a significant holiday let and rental market. Landlords installing chargers for holiday properties can claim the OZEV landlord grant, and renters in towns can claim the household grant.

What drives the cost

Stone walls are the main cost variable in Cornwall. Diamond-drilling or surface trunking adds a session of labour that conduit runs on a modern estate do not require, and where earthing upgrades are also needed (common in older Truro and Falmouth terraces), both jobs arrive together. The £850–1,300 band quoted on this page reflects that spread: a modern-estate install close to the consumer unit sits near the bottom; a stone cottage needing rerouted cable and a new earth electrode can reach the top. Narrow lanes in coastal villages also extend otherwise-short jobs when equipment delivery and van access are constrained.
