What to expect from a solar installation

A straightforward, tidy process designed to minimise disruption to your home. We assess your roof orientation, shading and energy use, then design a system sized to your needs. Scaffolding goes up, panels and inverter are fitted, and the system is connected — usually one to two days on site. Your system is commissioned, monitored and handed over with guidance on getting the most from it.
