Penarth
Penarth throws up the hardest EV question on this patch, and it is worth answering plainly: if you have no off-street parking, a home charger is usually not the right answer. Running a cable across a public pavement is not something a responsible electrician will sign off, whatever you have read online. Aled would rather tell you that on the phone than take a survey fee and give you the same answer in person.
Where there is off-street parking — a driveway, a rear lane garage, a courtyard — Penarth is very doable. The common pattern is a Victorian terrace with the board under the stairs or in a front cupboard and the parking at the back, which means a long internal run rather than a short external one. It is more labour than a new-build, and the price reflects the run rather than the postcode.
The other Penarth factor is age of installation. A lot of the housing here has had multiple rounds of alteration over a century, and boards vary enormously between neighbouring houses. Some are ready for a charger circuit today; some need replacing first. That gets established properly at the survey, and you get both numbers separately so you can see what you are paying for.

Generally no, and it is better to hear that now. Trailing a cable across a public pavement is a trip hazard and is not something that can be signed off. If you have a rear lane garage, a driveway or a courtyard, that changes the answer completely.
From £900 + VAT fully fitted. Penarth terraces often need longer internal cable runs than a modern house, which is the main variable, and it is priced at the survey rather than guessed.
It affects where the unit sits and how the cable is routed rather than whether you can have one. The aim is to keep it off principal elevations and follow existing lines. Aled will raise anything that needs checking with the council.
