Under the lawn to a detached garage

How it went

• Ohme ePod
• 18 metres under the lawn
• Turf relaid the same day
• Surveyed first

Ohme ePod£1,825A day★★★★★

Ruth's garage stands apart from the house, across eighteen metres of lawn. We surveyed it first, agreed the line of the trench with her, and on the day dug a narrow trench, laid armoured cable in a duct and relaid the turf. A month on, the only sign is the charger on the garage wall.

   The problem

   Ruth's garage stands apart from the house, across eighteen metres of lawn.

2. 02

   The route

   We surveyed it first and agreed the line with her: a narrow trench, armoured cable in a duct, and the turf rolled back.

   

3. 03

   The extras

   Eighteen metres of trenching at £45 a metre, and the cable run of 10 to 20 metres.

4. 04

   The result

   A month on, the only sign is the charger on the garage wall.

I was worried about the lawn. Within a fortnight you couldn't tell.

  Tom's board is in the cellar at the back of the house and the drive is at the side, so the shortest route was through the cellar: 22 metres along the joists and out through the wall behind the charger.

  Daniel's board is just inside the integral garage, four metres from where he wanted the charger, so this was a standard installation at the standard price.
