Working in Lichfield

Lichfield is a cathedral city with a large conservation area of Georgian and older brick buildings around the Close, Bore Street and Dam Street. Around that core are 20th-century estates such as Boley Park, Leomansley and Curborough, and big new developments at Streethay and on the southern edge of the city.

On older properties in Lichfield the consumer unit and earthing often need attention before a charger can go in, and in the conservation area the charger's position on the front of the house deserves some thought. Lichfield's newer developments generally have drives close to the house, while in the conservation area and on older city-centre streets parking and the look of the charger on the front elevation need more thought.

For Lichfield (WS13 and WS14), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is about nine miles down the A51 from our Rugeley yard.

How we work

After installation we test the circuit, set up the charger's app and scheduling, show you how it works and notify the network operator where that is required, so everything is on record.

We look at your consumer unit, main fuse and earthing before quoting, and work out whether the supply can take a charger alongside the rest of the house. If an upgrade is needed, we tell you up front.

Full garden transformation

📍 Rob, Lichfield

We turned Rob's garden in Lichfield into a complete outdoor living space, with sandstone paving, decorative gravel on a stabilisation grid, raised sleeper beds and a new 8x4 shed on a concrete base. The centrepiece is a semi-sunken block-and-brick firepit area under a hardwood pergola. We also fitted a new 7.3m canopy, a hardwood gate and new fencing, and kept the Red Robin and roses Rob wanted to save.

We restored Becky's paving in Lichfield. We cleaned and re-grouted around 60m² of patio, plus the pathway, the steps and the coping tiles, so the whole garden looks fresh again.

EV Charger Installation in Lichfield: common questions

Are homes in Lichfield suited to a home EV charger?

Lichfield's newer developments generally have drives close to the house, while in the conservation area and on older city-centre streets parking and the look of the charger on the front elevation need more thought. We check the supply, earthing and cable route before quoting.

Do I need off-street parking for a home charger?

Yes. A home charger needs to be on your own property, such as a drive or garage. Trailing a charging cable across a public pavement is not a safe option.

Do I need planning permission for a wall-mounted charger?

Most wall-mounted home chargers are permitted development, but listed buildings and some locations are different. Lichfield District Council can confirm if you are unsure.

Should I get a smart charger?

Home chargers now need smart functions by law, which lets you schedule charging for cheaper times and helps manage demand on the network.

Which areas near Lichfield do you cover for EV chargers?

We cover Lichfield, Whittington, Shenstone, Fradley, Alrewas and Streethay and the wider Staffordshire area from our base in Rugeley.
