EV Charger Installation Alexandra Hills: local, honest, done right
A standard power point adds only about 10km of range an hour. A dedicated 7kW wall charger is around four times faster, and a solar-aware charger can soak up your surplus solar during the day instead of exporting it for a few cents.
We check your switchboard and main supply, recommend single or three phase charging, and install the charger neatly where your car actually parks. In Alexandra Hills we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The Redlands coast runs from Capalaba and Birkdale through Cleveland and Victoria Point to Redland Bay and the Southern Moreton Bay Islands, with plenty of larger blocks around Mount Cotton and Sheldon. We look after Alexandra Hills and the surrounding suburbs of Capalaba, Ormiston and Birkdale, so a free on-site measure in 4161 is easy to book.

About Alexandra Hills
Schools tell the story of how fast this area filled up. Alexandra Hills State School opened in 1975, St Anthony's Catholic Primary in 1980, Vienna Woods in 1985, the state high school in 1987 and Hilliard State School in 1991. The Anglican Church of the Resurrection was dedicated in 1991, and the Sycamore School for students with autism arrived in 2017.
Being an inland Redlands suburb, homes sit back from the salt spray of the bay, though streets bordering the Scribbly Gums bushland can get afternoon shade from tall trees, so roof orientation matters when sizing panels.

Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?
A 7kW charger is typically $1,000 to $2,300 installed. If your switchboard needs an upgrade, allow another $800 to $2,200. We give a fixed price after a quick check.
Can I charge my EV from solar?
Yes. A solar-aware charger adjusts its charging speed to match your surplus solar, so you use your own power instead of exporting it. It works best if the car is home during the day.
Do I need three phase power?
No. Most homes are well served by a 7kW single phase charger, which comfortably fills most cars overnight. Three phase allows 11kW to 22kW if your home already has it.
