EV charger installation in Corinda
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV chargers for Corinda, planned around your home
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 Corinda we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's southside covers older post-war suburbs like Annerley, Moorooka and Holland Park, the busy family areas around Sunnybank, Mansfield and Carindale, and newer pockets at Pallara and Forest Lake. From Corinda to nearby Oxley and Sherwood, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.
- Many Corinda homes are character Queenslanders and older workers cottages with corrugated iron roofs. Tin roofs are quick to mount on, and we keep conduit runs neat and out of sight on heritage-style facades.

Getting to know Corinda
Farming families arrived in the 1860s, among them the Francis family, who bought 21 acres in 1862. Rail came through in 1874 and a shopping strip formed along Oxley Road. The station name, and so the suburb's, probably comes from Sir Arthur Palmer's cattle run near Aramac. After the 1920s the commercial area grew fast and bungalows spread across the low ground toward Oxley Creek.
Hilltop Queenslanders near Francis Lookout tend to get clear sun on their tin roofs, while bungalows on the Oxley Creek flood plain need batteries and inverters placed with flood levels in mind.

EV chargers in Corinda: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
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.
Do you install EV chargers in Corinda units and townhouses?
Often, yes, subject to body corporate approval and the building supply. We can provide the technical details your body corporate will ask for.
