Game changer charging- would recommend
we had a gully installed as part of a council trial, i was fhe first person in our area to ask the council to do the trial ( it was a quick process supported by ian with info and photos of gullys etc), i found out the names of those at top of roads & infrastructure, the person dealing with the work towards net zero and head planning dept and emailed them all directly with great sucess. this was just before xmas they agreed a trial within 24 hours, however, nothing happened for 2 weeks over xmas period and the council began liasing with charge gully owner ian directly. All in it too a couple of months to install from my initial contact, however this length of time was because there wasn’t already agreement in place with our council it’s normally done in 2 weeks. as the person who laid the foundation for the gully install trial in our area i was given a very generous discount. We also used some government grants towards the cost of install so paid only a couple hundred towards it outselves wich i was delighted with- look into gov grants if you are installing. Ian communicated with me all through out and gave information to populate forms for documents etc and regularly updated.
The gully itself was installed very quickly on the install day took a few hours we didnt even need to be home. the job was completed professionally, efficiently and to a high standard. The gully is so easy to maintain ( we give it a scoosh with the pressure washer or hose if we arw in garden to keep it clean and debris free). It sits flush to ground so no trip hazard to pavement, and is very simple to operate ( key to unlock, ilift the lift place or renove cable, close lid & relock. Our one “ complaint “ is we only got one key ans felt we needed 2 ( mainly due to a key obsessed toddler in our house ). The gully itself is so easy to
Operate and has allowed us home charging without a driveway.
I contacted charge gully about buying an additional key he was very honest telling me i could buy online cheaper than they could supply one but where happy to sell me one, we also had contact for weeks after following up that we were happy and all was working smoothly as it should.
All in all i would recommend a gully and it you are advised none in your council yet id urge you to spend half an hour finding out who the contract people are in your area and type up an email yes it took longer than normal ( i believe it is normally less than 2 weeks for install) but has paid off ten fold and i paid very little for it in end due to a generous discount & grants funding, it has reduced our charging cost dramatically.
