EV Charging Without a Driveway? We've Got You Covered
If you’ve switched to an electric vehicle but don’t have a private driveway, charging at home might feel out of reach. But there’s good news: Voltari offers a safe, simple and affordable way to charge your EV from home.
We work in partnership with Kerbo Charge, a leading solution designed for EV charging without a driveway, so you can enjoy the ease and savings of home charging, no more hunting for public charge points.

EV CHARGING WITHOUT A DRIVEWAY
Millions of EV drivers in terraced houses or homes without driveways park on the street every day, and until recently, charging at home simply wasn’t an option. The alternatives? Expensive public charging or risky makeshift cable setups.
Kerbo Charge changes that.
This clever, council-approved system fits a protective channel into the pavement, keeping your charging cable flush to the ground and safe for pedestrians. It’s low-profile, secure, and compatible with most home EV charge points — and Voltari handles the full home EV charging installation, from survey to sign-off.
How it Works
Getting started is easy:
- Free consultation: We assess your property and location for suitability.
- Survey & permissions: We guide you through any planning or council requirements.
- Professional installation: Our certified team installs your pavement channel and EV charger.
- Charge safely at home: Plug in from the kerb with no trip hazards or cable mess.
We make sure everything meets safety regulations and works for your day-to-day needs. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
The Smarter Way to Charge at Home
Charging at home has many benefits; it’s more convenient, can save you hundreds of pounds a year, and gives you complete control over when and how you charge. Public charging costs can be steep, but with your own charger, you can take advantage of off-peak electricity rates and avoid queues or availability issues.
You could also be eligible for the EV charge grant, offering up to £350 off the cost of your charger install. Our detailed blog will help you understand what’s available and how to apply.
