EV charger installation quote template

Quote it once, properly, and stop absorbing the extras.

A vague quote costs you twice: the customer cannot compare it fairly, and anything you did not write down becomes something you do for free. This is what a complete EV charge point quotation covers.

Customer and site

Boring, and the first thing that causes a dispute when it is missing.

  • Customer name, installation address and contact details
  • Quotation reference, issue date and how long the price holds
  • Property type and parking arrangement the price assumes

What you are installing

Specify the unit. "A 7kW charger" is not a specification.

  • Make, model and rated output of the charge point
  • Tethered or socketed, and cable length if tethered
  • Mounting: wall, post or pedestal, and who supplies the post
  • Smart features included, and any subscription the customer pays separately

Electrical works

The part customers cannot compare unless you itemise it.

  • Cable route and run length the price is based on
  • Cable type and size, and how it is fixed or buried
  • Protective device and any consumer unit alteration or upgrade
  • Isolation, and earthing provision including PEN fault protection where relevant
  • Whether a supply upgrade or DNO application is included or excluded

Groundworks and making good

Where quotes most often go wrong, because it is assumed rather than priced.

  • Trenching, ducting or drilling, with the surface types assumed
  • Reinstatement standard: what “making good” means here
  • Anything explicitly not included, such as re-laying block paving

Commissioning and handover

The work that happens after the unit is on the wall.

  • Testing, commissioning and connection to the customer’s network
  • App set-up and a walkthrough with the customer
  • Certification issued and any notification made on their behalf
  • Manufacturer warranty and your own workmanship warranty, each with its term

Commercials

State these and you will chase less.

  • Itemised price, or a total with the scope clearly defined
  • VAT treatment stated explicitly
  • Any grant or funding shown as a separate line, so the customer sees the gross and the net
  • Deposit, stage payments and the balance due on completion
  • Assumptions and exclusions, in plain words, in their own section
Questions

Quoting, answered

Should I itemise or give a single total?+

Either works, as long as the scope is unambiguous. Itemising helps the customer compare like for like and makes variations easier to price later. A single total with a clear scope and a strong exclusions section is also defensible.

What is the single most-missed line?+

Making good. Everyone prices the cable and the unit. Far fewer state what the surface will look like afterwards, and that is what the customer remembers.

How long should a quote stay valid?+

Long enough for the customer to decide, short enough that you are not held to old material prices. State the date explicitly rather than leaving it open.

Does installHUB produce these quotes?+

Yes. Quotations are built from the survey, carry your branding, and can be accepted by the customer online, which turns the accepted quote straight into a job and an invoice.
