FAQs
EV Chargers in Lewes: FAQs
Do you provide ev chargers across all of Lewes?
Yes, we cover the BN7 postcode area in full, including Cliffe, Southover, Landport, Nevill, Malling, Wallands.
Do I need planning permission for a home EV charger?
Most home EV charger installations fall under permitted development, particularly with off-street parking. Certain positions — such as facing a highway on some properties — can have specific requirements, which we check before installation.
How does South Downs National Park status affect building work in Lewes?
Development within the National Park is assessed with particular regard to landscape character and setting, alongside normal planning policy. Combined with the town's conservation area and listed building status, this means early advice is particularly valuable in Lewes.
